CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1. Introduction Recently there has been much waste water in world especially in Malaysia. Water poses the main sources to human life and livelihood in every parts of the world. Accordingly to the research shows that water waste overall came from outside which is from landscaping and irrigation activity. Malaysia just recognize this problem and came out with several alternative to settle down it. Malaysia just starting looking forward finding and research new alternative for landscaping and irrigation to control wastewater management. The best water efficiency for landscaping and irrigation can give best method to reduce cost. As a result, good water efficiency can become profitability and too valuable to landscaping…show more content…
Water efficiency can balance demand growth that would otherwise occur in expanding urban regions, and this moderated demand can reduce the need to develop or acquire new supplies. According to Green Building Index (GBI) there are several factors must be considered in 5 categories which is rainwater harvesting, water recycling, landscaping and irrigation, water fittings, metering and leak detection. As the ancients and natives would attest, water conservation theory has been around since the beginning of time. Most societies that deal with a limited resource learn to use it wisely.

The parties was involved for my research are Jabatan Lanskap of Majlis Perbandaran Kuantan (MPK), Jabatan Taman dan Rekreasi of Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA), Jabatan Lanskap dan Taman of Majlis Bandaran Putrajaya (MBP), Jabatan Taman dan Reaksi dan Jabatan Lanskap of Majlis Perbandaran Ampang Jaya, Kelab Golf DIraja Pahang, Stadium Darul Makmur. This is to find out their responses on water efficiency for landscaping and irrigation. Based on the questions that will distribute to them, conclusion can be made on the basis of their answers and through that, the graph can be
