Proud Mentor Moment!
I’m delighted to share that Sarah Syafiqah Nordin, my talented student, has just completed her thesis and graduated with flying colors!
Sarah’s research is a game-changer – the first in 26 years of GIS in UTM, to combine digital and physical GIS into a single 3D platform.
Let’s celebrate Sarah’s remarkable achievement and her promising future in the field of Geographic Information Science! #GIS #Thesis #Graduation #Innovation
Exciting day at the UTM GIS Training Camp 1!
Had the privilege of teaching nearly 60 enthusiastic students the art of topographic map making using data from diverse sources for the beautiful Sireh Park, Johor Bahru.
In just a day, our students learned the skills to create impressive maps in the morning and later confidently presented their work in the afternoon.
Huge thanks to my amazing postgraduate students – Husna, Farah, and Shakirah – for their invaluable assistance in making this event a great success!

MYBANTU WORD CLOUD
Word cloud is a novelty visual representation of text data, typically used to depict tags/keyword metadata. This format is useful for quickly perceiving the most prominent terms to determine its relative prominence. Bigger term means greater weight.
To date, the Word Cloud generated from the myBantu form shows some of the most frequently used words. The frequently used words are:
I hope this generated Word cloud can be used as a reference for those who want to help. Thank you Malaysians for the kindness.

MYBANTU WEEKLY DATA UPDATE
As usual, in addition to data checking done daily, data cleanup is done periodically. Data cleanup is done to prevent repeated/overlapping assistance from occurring.
Based on this week’s myBantu map, almost half (47%) of the locations that need help managed to receive help. Especially in the northern part of the Peninsula and in Sabah and Sarawak. Thank you Malaysians who care, provide assistance to those in need.
However, this week’s myBantu map also recorded a higher increase in daily reports compared to the previous week. Hopefully this report will decrease and more Malaysians can be helped.
Since this information can be updated by users, hopefully locations that have received help or “suspicious” can be edited or deleted. Only the locals will be able to do the verification.
To Malaysians who need help, you can fill out the form at this link https://arcg.is/1mK5zn0.
