Abstract

The conflict in registration of waqf land in Malaysia has been prolonged for such a long time particularly in Penang. This conflict has contributed to the major setback in development of waqf land. This paper aims to examine the procedure in registration of waqf land from legal perspective with reference to provisions in National Land Code 1965 and the state law under Administration of The Religious of Islam (State of Penang) Enactment 2004. The methodology used in this paper wasqualitative and content legal analysis method. This paper found there were inadequacy and insufficiency in administration and registration of waqf enactment in Malaysia. There were also lacuna in National Land Code 1965 and obscure and uncertain in creation and registration of waqf land. This paper concludes that Penang State Islamic Religious Council (SIRC) is in dire need to enact a specific law relating to administration and registration of waqf land in Penang together with a major plan to reform and strengthen the power of Syariah Court in addressing the issue of registration of waqf land in Penang.

Highlights

  • The World Health Organization (WHO) had developed internal air quality (IAQ) guidelines for dampness and management of mould in indoor building environment (WHO, 2009)

  • This paper focusing on the analysis of factors that contributes to the mould growth in an indoor library environment

  • The sites were surveyed with the following criteria: (a) The collection of library building characterization data based on direct inspection and interviews with library officers; (b) The library characterization including measurement of temperature and humidity, lighting and air conditioning systems; (c) Physical examination of the building and inspection of sites that has been wetted or showed mould growth; and (d) Mould sampling and analysis

Summary

Introduction

The World Health Organization (WHO) had developed internal air quality (IAQ) guidelines for dampness and management of mould in indoor building environment (WHO, 2009). The water content and moisture in materials can support mould growth. It is important to eliminate the source of water in an indoor library environment. The remediation and action should be carried out immediately when the sign of dampness appear in the building. It will cause mould growth and increased the risk of exposure to dampness appear in the building. It will cause mould growth and increased the risk of exposure to the microbial flora, airborne spores and volatile toxin (Singh, 1999). This paper focusing on the analysis of factors that contributes to the mould growth in an indoor library environment. The variable parameters of mould growth that had been discussed in the earlier research progress paper will be analysed further in this paper
