Abstract

The progress of the Malaysian cadastral survey system is a slow and time consuming process. Smooth operation of the country's development projects were hampered or unable to be carried out systematically as a result of work being delayed at various stages. One of the consequences is the failure to have an up-to-date record of land alienation in the country. This led to the existence of an unacceptable cadastral survey backlog at the Survey Department and the Land Office. The three cadastral survey processes at the Survey Department are the field work, the checking and examination of surveys and the preparation of certified plans. The backlog of these three processes were examined and the several identified areas which formed the root to the backlog problem were then analysed. The first was the examination of the existing working procedures at the Survey Department and the associated processes involving the Land Office. The second was the examination of the legal basis upon which the execution of cadastral survey is based. The third involved the land surveying education and training of land surveyors in Malaysia which is of two parts; tertiary level and employment stage. The fourth was the management aspects at the Survey Department and the Land Office. The extent of the problem of each area was thoroughly examined, and proposals and recommendations were made in an attempt to minimise the existing cadastral survey backlog.
