No full textespecially the ex-landfill site. The existence of 147 ex-landfill sites areas in the vicinity of urban
settlement requires an action to restructuring of the urban planning in Malaysia. Ex-landfill sites which is synonymous
with the negative impact on the environment and public perception must be redevelop immediately. Development needs
of the ex-landfill site in the context of development in Malaysia are articulated in the National Urban Policy and the
National Landscape Policy. Redevelopment of the ex-landfill is not only said to be able to mitigate with the environment
problems, but also could improve the number of urban spaces and the urban economy. Hence, this paper argues the need
for ex-landfill sites to be redeveloped as a public park or open spaces. Therefore, the planning standard of 2 hectares of
open spaces per 1,000 urban populations could be achieved. The argument on the needs of redevelopment ex-landfill site
as open space or Public Park will also be supported with literature data and field studies that show the effect of increasing
well-being of the urban society based as the impact of the redevelopment of ex-landfill site as public park
Urban Ex-Landfill as Built Environment: Community Perception
No full textThe continuous process of urbanism and urban sprawl has resulted 115 numbers of ex-landfill site become a part of the city’s image and the urban built environment. The urges to meets the needs of urban society for improve quality of life and adequate urban spaces in tandem with the increase of urban economic and social development become the demanding factor to redevelop ex-landfill site within the urban vicinity. In the context of development in Malaysia, five types of redevelopment of ex-landfill site have been identified; including the redevelopment as a public park. Redevelopment of ex-landfill site as public park is often regards as the most ideal development. The redevelopment is said be able to mitigate the environmental problems that exist due to the effects of ex-landfill contamination and create improvement in the quality of life, recreational and social well-being of urban society. However, questions on what is the main issues of ex-landfill site in accordance with the perception of local community, what type of priority scale on the redevelopment of ex-landfill according to the Malaysian public opinion and is the redevelopment of public park at the ex-landfill site is acceptable to the Malaysian society, arise as problem question. Thus, this paper attempts to answer the questions based on the community perception. By using the respondent perception’s data which is community surrounding the ex-landfill site and public park at the ex-landfill site; and also expert’s perception, the results indicate the suitability of the redevelopment of the ex-landfill site in the future Malaysia urban development
From Ex-landfill to Public Park: Impact on Local Community's Quality of Life and Living Environment
No full textAbstractRegarded as a new development urban planning approach in developing countries, brownfield regeneration, particularly the redevelopment of ex-landfills as public parks in Malaysia, leads to the question of this research: could such development benefit the local communities’ quality of life and living environment? We selected as study respondents 163 heads of household within a one-kilometer radius of two pilot ex-landfills as public park areas, namely, Worldwide Landfill Park and Kuantan Passive Park. Results show significant differences in respondents’ perception, which indicates the positive impact of such redevelopment
Ex-landfill Redevelopment and Adequacy of Open Space Provision: An Integrated Approach in Malaysia Urban Development
No full textThis paper presents a review of the needs of ex-landfill redevelopment and the adequacy of open space provision in the context of sustainable urban development planning in Malaysia as seen from the perspective of the National Urban Policy. With a specific focus on the Action Plan DPN6 and DPN9, ex-landfill redevelopment needs and provision of open space are detailed to identify their potential and constraints in the development of sustainable cities. As a result, this paper found a link between the needs of urban ex-landfill redevelopment and approach to provide adequate urban open space. Through the proposal of the development of public park at urban ex-landfill sites, the needs of ex-landfill redevelopment and the adequacy of urban open space provision is being ‘united’ and translated as an approach to create a sustainable urban development in Malaysia.

Urban public park from ex-landfill: Impact to community health
No full textIssues on inadequate urban green areas provision to meet the needs of community social recreation become more crucial with the increase of urban population and lack of urban spaces. To deal with the issue, the Malaysia government has developed policies to reuse ex-landfill as public park. However, public health issues related to the landfill gas emission have threatened public’s confidence in the appropriateness of the public parks to be developed at the ex-landfill areas. Therefore, this paper serves as the background study to identify the impact of the redevelopment of urban ex-landfill into public park towards the community health. Field study was conducted at four study areas, which covered two ex-landfill areas and two public parks that have been developed on the ex-landfill areas. The study focused on two main aspects; community health perceptions and air quality. The community health perceptions data were collected through respondent’s self-assessment questionnaire from 287 residents within the study area. Meanwhile, the air quality data were gathered from five air parameters of landfill gas emission, which were detected from 16 gas sampling stations within four boundary areas of 1.0 kilometer radius from the study area. The findings from the survey revealed a positive impact on the public park developed from ex-landfill area towards community’s health. The analyzed data are anticipated to be used as the basic indicators to justify the community acceptation towards the proposal of 296 public parks that could served the social recreation needs of 462,500 Malaysian urban populations in the year 2020

Projective moduli of certain quotient rings
No full textThe author considers some properties of extension rings
B
B
of a ring
A
A
that satisfy the condition that every maximal ideal of
B
B
is an extension of some ideal of
A
A
. Such extensions have been used by D. Lissner, K. Lønsted, N. Moore, and A. Simis to obtain rings for which the projective moduli are arbitrarily less than the dimension of the maximal spectra. It is shown that families of prime ideals of maximal type can be used to construct such extensions.</p
