Johor to acquire seismic microzonation equipment for earthquake studies
💡 5 Intipati Utama Inisiatif Kajian Gempa Bumi Johor
- Kerajaan Negeri Johor akan memperoleh peralatan pemetaan mikrozonasi seismik awal tahun depan bagi memperkukuh kajian gempa bumi di Segamat, dengan peruntukan sebanyak RM736,000 diumumkan dalam Belanjawan Johor 2026.
- Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Kesihatan dan Alam Sekitar Negeri, Ling Tian Soon, memaklumkan peralatan mudah alih ini digunakan untuk mengkaji rintangan tanah dan tindak balas struktur bangunan terhadap gegaran.
- Inisiatif ini dilaksanakan bersama Jabatan Meteorologi Malaysia (MetMalaysia) untuk mendapatkan data tremor yang lebih tepat, komprehensif dan terperinci.
- Perolehan dibuat di bawah Teras Kelima Belanjawan Johor 2026 yang fokus pada pengurangan risiko bencana, susulan tujuh gegaran kecil yang direkodkan di Segamat sejak 24 Ogos.
- 15 bangunan kerajaan termasuk Hospital Segamat, Klinik Kesihatan Bandar Putra dan Kolej Komuniti Segamat mengalami kerosakan kecil dengan anggaran pembaikan sebanyak RM550,000.
Jabatan Mineral dan Geosains Malaysia (JMG) menyambut baik inisiatif ini sebagai langkah penting ke arah pemetaan seismik beresolusi tinggi di Malaysia. JMG terus komited memberikan kepakaran teknikal dan data geologi bagi menyokong usaha pengurangan risiko bencana gempa bumi di peringkat negeri dan nasional.

ISKANDAR PUTERI: Johor will begin procuring seismic microzonation mapping equipment early next year to enhance earthquake studies in Segamat.
The RM736,000 allocation was announced during the Johor Budget 2026 tabling at Kota Iskandar today.
State Health and Environment Committee chairman Ling Tian Soon said the mobile equipment will study soil resistance and building structure responses to tremors.
“This initiative is vital to ensure that any potential tremors in the future can be identified through more in-depth studies and data,” he said when met after the budget presentation.
The procurement will be conducted in collaboration with the Malaysian Meteorological Department.
Ling described the equipment as crucial for conducting comprehensive studies and assessing tremor impacts more accurately.
Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Ghazi announced the allocation under the budget’s fifth thrust focusing on disaster risk reduction.
Since August 24, seven minor earthquakes have been recorded in Segamat, beginning with a magnitude 4.1 tremor.
