Abstract
In 2016, 95 % of the collected wastes are taken to 156 disposal facilities that are distributed throughout the Peninsular Malaysia, yet municipal solid waste (SPP) open dumping of is common wherever land is available. Previous studies show that the land use activities influence the waste generation. The issue of non-compliance such as illegal change of land use zoning and conflicts in development plans are among others that affect the environment sustainability. Therefore, the objective of this study is to calculate the reliability and coefficient of kappa value of municipal solid waste management criteria for land use planning in Malaysia. It is to identify the most important SPP management indicators during land use planning by valuing its reliability and kappa coefficient. This list of indicators can be used as references for land use planning by local authorities as well as one of SPP management steps towards sustainable development. Content analysis techniques were used in this study where journals, thesis, project reports and research report have been used in this research. The results show that waste collection, landfill, 3R, governance, education, stakeholders and services (n=7) are an important indicator of land use planning to ensure the sustainability of SPP management with alpha value, α=0.887. The results also show that governance is the most commonly used criteria in the MSW management as their role as decision makers and financial aspect needs, with a value of κ=0.837.
