Visit to ASMA

My CPE695 (EIA) students and I organized a visit to Alam Sekitar Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (ASMA); present also were Assoc. Prof. Dr. Norazah and Mr. Jefri. The objective of the visit was to give the students a hands-on feel pertaining to the world of environmental monitoring and consultancy relevant to the EIA studies. We were greeted by ASMA CEO, Dr. Abdul Rani Abdullah afterwhich Mr. Ardi Bakhtiar, Manager of the Water Resources Management department gave a briefing on the daily operations of ASMA.

The students were then brought to the Environmental Data Center, coherent to continuous / automatic environmental monitoring in Malaysia; which in-turn encapsulates the derivation of the Air Pollution Index (API) as well as the Continuous Water Quality Monitoring (CWQM) network. Mr. Razif, Asst. Manager then proceeded to bring us on a field visit to Sg. Labu, for further briefing on grab sampling techniques as well viewing a CWQM station. A demonstration session was set-up pertaining to the use of the Multi-parameter YSI Sonde (in-situ measurements), Van Dorn sampler and proper storage and preservation of water samples.

We would like to express our thanks and gratitude to ASMA for accomodating us and enlightening our students. Below are some photos from our visit.
