Penubuhan Jupem WP Labuan 1984

 

Jabatan Ukur dan Pemetaan Wilayah Persekutuan Labuan ditubuhkan pada 16 April 1984. Pulau Labuan sebelum ini terletak di bawah seliaan Jabatan Tanah dan Ukur Sabah (JTU). Setelah Labuan diisytiharkan sebagai sebahagian dari Wilayah Persekutuan, JUPEM WP Labuan diwujudkan dan pejabatnya yang pertama terletak di Bangunan Pejabat Daerah berhampiran dengan Dataran Labuan.

Johor Safari World Tutup 1984

 

JSW terletak 10km dari pekan Simpang Renggam mula dibuka pada 1982. Ia merupakan taman safari pertama dan terbesar Malaysia. Diusahakan oleh Syarikat Chipperfield's Circus di atas tanah milik kerajaan negeri Johor. JSW juga membina roller-coaster pertama di negara kita. Cuma mampu bertahan dua tahun sahaja dan tutup bisnes mereka pada 1984. Kerugian besarnya adalah kerana kos penjagaan haiwan yang amat tinggi.

cabaran besar t5 adalah mencari tajuk tesis. tidak ramai yang punya kebolehan untuk memikir sendiri tajuk kajian. maka sebagai alternatif kenalah bertanya dengan para pengajar kalau-kalau mereka boleh memantu. saya diberi idea oleh awhi tentang tajuk underground utility mapping. idea tsb beliau perolehi dari pembacaan artikel oleh christina tang terbit dalam jurnal the surveyor rism. tang pelajar nelp dari kuching sarawak.

FIG Congress Toronto 1986

FIG Congress and Deformation Measurement Workshop are two important events to surveying community whom dealing with geodetic deformation analysis (GDA). In both events representatives of Commission 6 FIG were there to dissiminate knowledge and latest development on GDA.

The 18th FIG Congress was held in Toronto in June 1986.  A number of papers on GDA were presented and among the most importance were paper by Working Group 6.1 on deformation analysis (led by Adam Chrzanowski);

"Report on the ad-hoc committee on the analysis of deformation surveys" by A Chrzanowski & Chen Yong-qi.

Buda Utility Survey Company Technical Visit (2011)

A technical visit to BUDA - a prominent utility surveying company in Hong Kong has been materialized back then a few years ago (i.e., in 2011). BUDA stands for Buried Utility Damage Avoidance, a company which mainly engaged in underground utility survey and mapping using  most advanced technologies and equipment including GPR, PCL and CCTV.

This visit was arranged as part of the fact-finding mission for preparing the proposal and the syllabus for a new taught course program (MSc Underground Utility Mapping).

Visit to LSGI HKPU (2011)

Include in the technical visit program on utility survey is the visit to Land Surveying and Geo-Information (LSGI) Department of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (HKPU). This visit was arranged to share their experience in establishing the BSc in Utility Surveying program.
