Abstract:
Today, every city is to some degree a postmodern city undergoing the process of postmodern urbanization. The postmodern urbanization process is defined by Soja as a summative depiction of the major changes that have been taking place in the last quarter of the twentieth century.’ It refers to something less than a total change, with continuity of modernism, but constitutes its own distinctive conditions (Soja (1994) in Gibson and Watson (ed); p126). There are six restructurings embedded in this process as demonstrated by Soja (1994) in his study of Los Angeles. The first restructuring entai

Abstract:
The only national heavy commuter train system in Malaysia, called KTM Komuter, plays a major role in providing long journey rail-based public transport services to people from urban to suburban areas within the Klang Valley. Since its first operation in the mid-1990s, KTM Komuter has had the primary function of alleviating the negative impacts of car use, namely congestion and the associated environmental pollution. However, there are also issues of public transport users overcrowding circumferential links, railway stations, rail cars, bus stops and feeder buses, particularly during peak hours

This study reviews the theoretical frameworks of the traditional models of the land development process with reference to land supply constraints. Using an institutional economics analysis framework (North, 1996), the study identifies the causes of land supply constraints and the ways in which they affect agents' decisions to supply land for development in the case study areas. The empirical work takes the form of a case study on the Malay Agriculture Settlement Reserve (MAS) areas in Kuala Lumpur. The research devises a contextual practical approach of the institutional land supply constraint

This thesis examines the relationship between British colonial legacies and a culture of migration amongst mobile Malaysians (tertiary-educated Malaysians with transnational migration experience). Drawing from Bourdieu’s “habitus”, I propose the concept of “citizenship habitus” – a set of inherited dispositions about the meanings and significance of citizenship – to understand how and why mobile Malaysians carry out certain citizenship and migration practices. These practices include: firstly, interpreting and practising Malaysian citizenship as a de-politicised and primordial (ethno)national
