Flood Vulnerability in Gua Musang, Kelantan, Malaysia by using Geographical lnfomtation System (GIS)
Floods are common natural disaster occurring in most parts of the world. Gua Musang is chosen as the study area to do this research but only focused on four areas in Gua Musang. Serious flood have hit the part of Kelantan state, Gua Musang. The flood caused great damage to properties and human lives....
