Flash Flood Impact in Kuala Lumpur – Approach Review and Way Forward (Impak Banjir Kilat di Kuala Lumpur – Ulasan Pendekatan dan Langkah Kehadapan)

Within the literature concerned with museums’ contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the most studied museums’ focus was on Goals 8 and 11, which promote decent work, economic growth and the sustainable development of cities and communities. Moreover, museums also play a crucial role in supporting Goal 16 by ensuring public access to information and protecting fundamental freedoms following national legislation and international agreements. However, the museums' contribution to SDG 16 achievement has often been omitted. This paper presents a specific study investigating the approaches, methods and tools being deployed in managing museums in collaboration with institutions at all levels. The study is based on a systematic literature analysis and field data collection from a cultural project “Carp Leaping Over Dragon’s Gate”. Cases corresponding to museum theories and practices as well as relevant projects have been critically analyzed and studied. The research findings include the set targets, the implemented projects that allow for building a peaceful and inclusive society and promoting justice for all in museums, and the ways they help achieve SDG 16. Hence, the paper will bring a completely new meaning to the mission of museums as more dynamic institutions committed to the achievement of SDGs.

Identification and characterization of geodiversity for sites need more systematic approach for the purpose of conserving site with high geoheritage value. The present of igneous and metamorphic rock at Hulu Langat creates diversity in rock, features and geomorphological features includes hot spring, waterfall, hill and mountain that hold potential as a protected geosite of heritage value. Besides, the previous tin mining activities created by the contact metamorphism, left series of lakes and ponds while the nearby mountain is susceptible area as watershed that turn into dams around the area. Analysis on topographical maps, satellite image and aerial photograph interpretation aided in identification potential geosite based on geomorphological diversity. A total of 31 potential geosites with geological-scientific value have been identified in this study compare to 10 from the previous study. The potential geosite have been classified into rock diversity, natural landscape diversity and anthropogenic landscape diversity. Characterisation recognise 6 of these potential geosite are best example or tip location to illustrate the geological element, 4 of these geosites are the only occurrence of the geological element, 27 of the potential geosites are well preserved and 4 hold the scientific knowledge written in the international journal. The identification and characterisation of geoheritage resources are crucial steps before evaluation or assessment, ranking and conservation or development being propose, while strengthen the conservation geology approach.
