Joint tenancy has been applied when one of the joint tenants dies; the deceased's left portion must be given to the surviving joint tenant. The National Land Code (Act 828) acknowledges the concept of joint ownership in form of tenancy in common while the right of survivorship was only acknowledged in the National Land Code (Penang and Malacca Titles) Act 1963. Therefore, the research aims to explore the concept of joint tenancy and the existing laws governing the joint ownership in Malaysia. This research is based on the qualitative research and analysis of the primary and secondary materials through the governing statutes and reported cases. The research also explores the practice of joint tenancy in Singapore and Australia for comparative analysis. It is predicated that the application of joint tenancy would give the advantage to the surviving joint tenant towards the full enjoyment of the property.

Millions of people were harmed by landslides, and many have lost their lives. Instead of widening the access road during a landslide, an alternative or new road should be introduced accurately. This study was conducted to determine an appropriate GIS-based alternative planning route during landslides in Ranau, Sabah, Malaysia. For determining the criteria weights of the landslide, a GIS-based Multi-Criteria Decision Making (GIS-MCDM) technique was utilised with the extension of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The Landslide Susceptibility Index (LSI) map was created using lithology, slope, aspect, rainfall, land use or land cover (LULC), and proximity to a stream. The map was compared with the NASA-landslide historical data for the verification. The study found that lithology, slope, and aspect were the most contributing factors to the local landslide occurrences. The route from Pinausuk to the destination position of Kundasang is the most appropriate choice. An alternative planning route map is a helpful tool for the authorities and it might be also made available to the public, so they will know which path can be taken for more secure alternative access during landslides.

The demand for sustainable housing is rising because of the rapid increase in Malaysia's population. Housing areas with sufficient amenities, services, and accessibility contribute to people's having a higher quality of life since those amenities might satisfy their desire for a particular location. This study intends to identify significant parameters, weightage, and sustainable residential areas based on selected parameters. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Geographical Information System (GIS) platform were used to assess the appropriate parameters and locations with adequate facility supply. To determine the suitability of residential areas in Ipoh, Perak, the weighted overlay approach was performed using the computed value and scale of the parameters. A site suitability map is created using three separate levels with low, medium, and high suitability areas. The most important parameters were found to be health and social care, while industrial areas, social amenities, and recreational places were found to be less important. With this outcome, purchasers could discover the most important regions that fulfil their demands by making the decision to invest in the right residential property.

The evolution of road development started with the idea of connecting metropolitan cities with the surrounding region. “All roads lead to Rome” which also shows us that, urban development attracts transport infrastructure. But eventually, settlements started to evolve in close proximity to the roads, which shows that development is followed by a transportation network. This has led to a common debate on what should come first, Opportunities/Settlement or Transport Infrastructure. In view of the existing literature, the interdependency of Regional Development and Transport Infrastructure can be classified under three categories which are 1. Transport system (Infrastructure) follows regional development, 2. Infrastructure development as an inductor of regional development and 3. Equality in development emphasizes balanced economic growth and infrastructure in a region. (Botrić, Šišinački and Škuflić, 2006). This study is an attempt to understand the development of the Visakhapatnam district in a regional context and its relation to the regional transportation network. The relationship between the accessibility of regional transport at the nodal level and the development of major settlements has been studied for the same. After analyzing various indicators of development and transportation infrastructure, an impact assessment of two indicators has been done. One of the indicators to study development is the growth rate in terms of the population of the Visakhapatnam region and the indicator to study transport accessibility is Shimbel’s index of major nodes in the regional network. The Geographic Information System has been used as a tool to develop the Road network and to generate the initial connectivity matrix for calculating the Shimbel Index. After obtaining the data related to the indicators of regional development and transportation accessibility, regression analysis has been performed which shows the relationship between the development of major settlements and accessibility.

The healthcare industry in Malaysia is expected to grow to 127 billion ringgit by 2027. This vast investment definitely involved massive construction activities, which subsequently, require an advanced support system, to ensure the deliverable. Integration of CBA and BIM will further enhance the government construction project delivery. The level of BIM adoption in Malaysia's Construction industry is still low due to several obstacles; lack of knowledge of BIM, lack of data on the return on investment of BIM, and implementation cost and benefits. The objective of this paper was to identify the current approach of CBA toward BIM application in Government Healthcare Facilities in Malaysia. A mixed method with a nonprobability sampling technique was adopted. Where, 53 out of 90 respondents of the BIM expert population registered with the Public Works Department (PWD) BIM Centre have replied to the questionnaire. Meanwhile, five (5) semi-structured interview sessions were conducted. The findings have discovered that, awareness of the BIM application in the construction industry is important in this digital era. Nevertheless, the integration of CBA in BIM in Malaysia can be considered still low, compared to other countries such as Singapore and Australia. The integration of CBA in BIM adoption falls under level 3 of BIM Maturity.

Route accessibility is essential infrastructure, facilitating more convenient transit for individuals. Nonetheless, the seasonal monsoon can lead to flooding and impair the accessibility of local transportation, especially in hilly-lowland areas. This study aims to investigate an alternative route access for safe travel from Kota Marudu to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, during the floods with GIS path analysis and MCDA method. The slope, rainfall, land cover /land use (LULC), distance from the river and river density were utilized to construct the flood susceptibility map using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), while path analysis was applied to find the accessible and safe routes. There are two other routes in the study region, one of which may be utilized as a suitable route. A new route should be considered to create roads in the higher area. The alternate route map suggested in the study is a beneficial tool as caution during the rainy season. As the flood's extent is simply an estimate, it is only possible to forecast the event, and sometimes can result in unexpected tragedy.

Unethical issues in relation to corruption is believed to slowly penetrate into the construction sector around the world due to its involvement with a multitude of players, different phases of work, and a great deal of input from both the public and private sectors. Due to the construction’s central role in development, corruption in construction can be harmful to the entire project mainly in terms of poor quality of the finished product, reduced economic return to investments, and increased number of injury and death. Despite concerns on this regard have been discussed, a commitment to rooting out corruption is crucial and is still unexplored. This paper aims to examine the homogeneity levels of perception between project stakeholders on the issues of corruption. A questionnaire survey was conducted with a total response of 37.6% was attained from the total of 189 questionnaires sent to the Government, public authorities, consultants, and contractors. The result indicates that there is a difference in perception between the different groups of respondents in the vulnerable areas of corruption in the construction project development. The outcome could be useful and pave a way for the policy maker in reforming anti-corruption strategies in order to mitigate corruption issues among construction industry players.

In recent decades, China has witnessed a miracle of rapid urbanisation, and the development of traditional Chinese architecture has faced challenges as well as opportunities. Improper planning has undermined the well-being of residents, and many historic buildings have been demolished. Under the slogan of “high-quality urban development”, the value of traditional architecture is rarely mentioned. Therefore, research into architectural heritage and urban sustainability is necessary. This study focuses on Shandong Province in China, the birthplace of Confucianism and, to a large extent, the long history of Chinese culture. By studying courtyard architecture under the influence of Confucianism, the aim is to reveal the cultural profile of the new urban era while critiquing the problems in the urban planning process. The study adopts a qualitative method based on the researcher's field investigation and data collection, as well as one-on-one interviews with experts, to collate typical cases for analysis. In addition, this study also intervenes from a narrative perspective to facilitate the exploration of the value of architecture. The findings suggest that courtyard architecture embodies Chinese aesthetic and philosophical thinking, has theoretical and practical implications for living environments, communities, and urban development, and brings new insights that can better achieve sustainable goals while expanding the existing knowledge of architecture and courtyards.

Along with the continuous growth of the elderly population, Malaysia projected to become an ageing nation by 2030. The Retirement Villages are a Restricted Ageing Community that offers a complete range of services supplying the diverse housing demand of the elderly (seniors) generation. The World Health Organization (WHO) identified four broad domains universally relevant to the Quality of Life: physical and psychological health, social relationships, and environment. This study aims to provide an in-depth overview of the Retirement Villages in Malaysia. The objectives of this study are sets as follows: (i) To define the Elderly Quality of Life (QoL), and (ii) To determine the generational preferences features of Retirement Village in Malaysia. The Malaysian housing generations involved in this study are the Baby Boomers, Generation X (Gen-X), Generation Y (Gen-Y), and Generation Z (Gen-Z). With a mixed-methods approach, the derived findings revealed that preferred generational features of Retirement Villages are diverse for each main feature; (i) Location; (ii) Services; (iii) Design Criteria; (iv) Physical Environment; and (v) Social Activities. This study contributes more understanding of the main actors of property development and the real estate industry players on the preferred features for Retirement Villages in the Malaysian context.

The property developer would be in a vital role to orchestrate the development and ensure the issuance of the strata title. Developer’s Management Period will take place right after the property completion if the strata title has not been issued during the delivery of vacant possession to the parcel owners. Concentrating on the property developer during the Developer’s Management Period, this study aimed to investigate the risks associated with the management of strata-titled properties as a strategy to further understand the needs of managing the property from the earliest stage. This study was adopting the analytical review of the literature, content analysis of the documents and thematic analysis from the semi-structured interviews with the industry players. This study has identified the employees’ competencies, financial liquidity, non-compliance to the laws, litigation, customer service and security management as six risk factors that the developers must be concerned about in managing strata-titled properties. Afterwards, developers may continue to do risk assessments and risk mitigation as parts of the risk management process.
