As such, 8 events which occurred from 2001 till 2007 were chosen to ascertain the preparatory and triggering factors for debris-flows in Peninsular Malaysia. Site investigations and laboratory tests were conducted and documented in 2010 with detailed description of the debris-flow channels which are useful for deduction of the debris-flow mechanism and sediment discharge estimation. The influences of slope gradient, catchment area and geology on the initiation and deposition of debris-flows are examined and sediment discharge volumes are estimated based on field investigation and calculated based on Japanese guidelines. It is concluded that for the study sites, the bed gradient of initiation zones are more than 20o while the catchment area ranges from 0.2km2 to 3.5km2. The gradient of the banks along the flow path are typically close to 50o forming a V-Shape channel. All initiation locations occurred in weathered granitic rock and are also near to metamorphic formation. The particle size comprises of 75% cobbles and boulders and 25% sandy silt which is typical of weathered granite. The most prevalent mechanism of debris-flow in Peninsular Malaysia is gully bed erosion. Landslide induced debris-flows and collapse of natural dam are also possible. The potential sediment discharge volumes estimated based on the field studies show similar trend with the data in Japan with a sediment yield of about 14,200m3 per event per km2 of catchment area. Keywords: debris-flows, initiation, gradient, catchment area, geology, mechanism, sediment discharge. 1. INTRODUCTION chosen due to the availability of physical details and that Debris-flows, or sometimes referred to as mud- the effects of the debris-flows could be observed then. floods in Malaysia, are fast-moving landslides which Table-1 lists the study locations and the date of debris- generally occur on steep natural terrains during periods of flow occurrences. Out of these chosen events, the events in heavy rainfall [7]. They consist of loose soil, rocks, and Genting Sempah and Gunung Pulai claimed 20 and 5 tree trunks combined with water, forming slurry that flows lives, respectively while the incidence in Gunung downslope. Typical velocity of debris-flows, as reported Tempurung injured a motorist. All debris-flow events by Highland et al. [9] ranges between 16 to 56 km/h. Due chosen for this study resulted in road closures from a few to their relatively high density and viscosity, debris-flows hours to several weeks. can displace boulders, may carry away vehicles and other objects as large as bridges and locomotives. Debris-flows can also be extremely destructive to life and property. Thousands of lives are loss worldwide in any given year due to this disaster. In such a case in December 1999, debris-flows claimed 30,000 lives in Vargas, Venezuela. Since 1961, about 740 fatalities due to landslides were recorded in Malaysia, out of which more than half were due to debris-flows. For example, in 1996, a debris-flow incident in Keningau, recorded 302 fatalities and destroyed close to 5,000 houses (Figure-1). In the same year, another debris-flow incident in Pos Dipang claimed 48 lives [17]. Other cases in Malaysia were reported by Hussin et al [10]. Due to their destructive nature, the Public Works Figure-1.

    ADVENTURE TOURISM IN SELANGOR: EXPLORE, EXPERIENCE AND ENJOY! By Nurul Azlyna (CIFP,Bach. Of Acc (Hons), CMI) LET’S HIT THE ROAD Millions of people travel across the world every year and thus, making the tourism industry as a key role in the global economy. According to World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the industry accounted for 10.4% of global GDP and 319 million jobs, or 10% of total employment in 2018. Travellers travel with different purposes where some people travel for leisure or business while some travel due to specific interest such as medical or religion. Given the different purposes, tourism industry has been classified into various types to cater to the needs and preferences of all types of tourists. The following are the categories of tourism1: a. Leisure Under this purpose, travellers simply want to enjoy new experience of a destination and devoting their holiday to rest and relaxation. These tourists prefer to stay in some quiet and relaxed destination preferably at a hill resort, beach resort or island resort. b. Business The travellers’ main motive for travel is for work purpose such as attending a business meeting, conferences, conventions selling products, meeting clients. Business tourism is popularly known as MICE (Meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) tourism. c. Special Interest Interestingly, some people travel for special reasons such as religions, medical, education, hobbies and cultural. Under medical tourism for example, travellers go to places such as recommended specialist centre seeking for medical treatment. Meanwhile, the adventurous groups usually travel to spots that are popular for adventure activities such as bungee jumping or whale- 1 National Institute of Open Schooling watch.

In Malaysia, the problem issues are related to traffic congestion and many user cars on the roadway in daily lives. One alternative mode of using a rail network is commuter, LRT, Monorail, MRT and ETS. Therefore, the Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is then used to map and produce the railway networks history and developments in urban public transportation (UPT). The goal of this research is to identify the heatmap trends of the Klang Valley railway stations which included Kuala Lumpur as urban public transport sectors. It was based on the OSM image layer from the year 1990 to 2019 and studied the growth of railway networks through a polyline pattern analysis.

Faktor yang amat membimbangkan adalah apabila rakyat Selangor yang dijangkiti COVID-19 tetapi tidak mengetahuinya, atau diistilahkan sebagai silent carriers. Mereka ini adalah golongan yang tidak bergejala dan sihat. Golongan ini amat merisaukan kerana mereka boleh menularkan dan menjangkiti kumpulan yang berisiko tinggi. Bagi memulakan Fasa Mitigasi Wabak Pandemik COVID-19 Negeri Selangor, Pelan Tindakan Kesihatan Awam Negeri Selangor akan melaksanakan program pengawasan melalui langkah active case detection ataupun mengenal pasti kes secara aktif. Program saringan COVID-19 ini akan berlangsung bermula 8 Mei 2021 di DUN Kajang dan DUN Semenyih dan akan berlangsung sehingga 10 Jun 2021 yang ditanggung sepenuhnya oleh Kerajaan Negeri Selangor. Saringan percuma ini akan dilaksanakan di dua DUN setiap hari dan akan meliputi seluruh 56 DUN yang terletak di dalam negeri Selangor. Program ini akan memberi manfaat dan peluang kepada rakyat negeri Selangor yang berisiko, pernah menjadi kontak dengan pesakit COVID-19, bergejala dan juga rakyat yang bimbang tentang status mereka. Diharap dengan program ini, rakyat Selangor akan mengambil langkah proaktif dengan menjalani saringan di kawasan- kawasan di seluruh negeri Selangor mengikut tarikh yang ditetapkan dan memainkan peranan untuk mengurangkan wabak COVID-19 di negeri Selangor.
