Borders & Sovereignty
Did you know that Malaysia share its land boundaries with 3 countries, that is Thailand, Indonesia and Brunei? While for maritime boundaries Malaysia share with 6 countries, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Brunei, Vietnam and Philippines. How do we know the boundaries, how to identify it and who did it? The Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (Jupem) plays a significant role in pertaining the delineation, demarcation and survey of the international land boundaries with its neighbours by using watershed, rivers, latitude lines, bearing and distance value. We have a replica of a single barrier of the Malaysia-Thailand borders at Sungai Golok, Kelantan. Come and have a look! Section in this segment are:
