Among these modes, bus transportation continues to be the top choice for intercity travelers in Malaysia. Bus offers more flexibility compared to the other transport modes. Due to its relatively cheaper fare as compared to the air transport, bus is more affordable to those with low income. However, bus transport service today is starting to face higher competition from rail and air transport due to their attractive factors. The huge challenge faced by intercity bus transport in Malaysia is the management of its services. The intercity bus transport does not fall under one management; unlike rail transport which is managed under Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB), or air transport which is managed under Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB).

  • The History and Characteristicsof Malay Early Towns in Peninsular
    Asian Journal of Humanities and Social Studies (ISSN: 2321 – 2799) Volume 02 – Issue 03, June 2014 The History and Characteristics of Malay Early Towns in Peninsular Malaysia Siti Norlizaiha Harun1 and Rusamah Abdul Jalil2 1 Assoc. Prof. Dr., Department Town and Regional Planning, Faculty of Architecture Planning and Surveying University Technology MARA (Perak), Malaysia 2 Senior Lecturer, Department Town and Regional Planning, Faculty of Architecture Planning and Surveying University Technology MARA (Perak), Malaysia ________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT --- Malaysia has an interesting socio geographical and cultural history which includes historical sites and old towns that bear witness to the rich form and evolution of the urban tapestry. Old towns in Malaysia have a treasure trove of unique heritages in terms of history, architecture, identity, and culture including urban morphology. These old towns have stories of events and folklore which are visible via physical evidences that still stood the test of time. Old towns of the day still carry past memories that tell their own tales of the history they have seen. The research on The Morphological Mapping of Malay Early Towns in Peninsular Malaysia in 2012 have found that urban form characteristics in Malaysia dating from the 13th to the 18th century may be classified into four categories; namely the Melaka Sultanate settlements, the Malay Forts, Early Malay Towns built by the Malay Rulers; and Colonial Towns. Finding from this research can be concluded that each categories of urban form has the relationship between history, socio economic and geography, and the most notable findings is the differences of setting and layout of each town.

    Women, Development and Change in Negeri Sembilan: A Title Micro-Level Perspective Author(s) Azizah Kassim Citation 東南アジア研究 (1997), 34(4): 696-721 Issue Date 1997-03 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/56615 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 34, No.4, March 1997 Women, Development and Change in Negeri Sembilan: A Micro-Level Perspective AZIZAH KASSIM* I Introduction This paper is an attempt to study local level social changes among a group of matrilineal people in Negeri Sembilan. The focus of attention is on the changing roles of women at the household and community levels in the mukim (sub-district) of Seri Menanti. Interest on women studies in Malaysia has shown a marked increase in the last few years as evidenced by the growing number of literature on the subject. However, most of the available works are still focussed on women and industrial development, especially on women in the manufac­ turing industries. Central to most of the discussions are women's migratory pattern and the impact of such migration, their problems in adapting to the new work pattern and living environment, their exploitation at the work place, and the consequences of wage labour on their social relations. As most of the industries are based in the urban areas, most of these works are urban based. Studies on women in the rural areas remain neglected. Of the few available works on the rural women are those by Husna Sulaiman [1989], Ng [1989b], Rokiah Talib [1986], Stivens [no date], Mazidah et ai. [1983] and Strange [1980], apart from my own works [Azizah Kassim 1986a; 1988].
