ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES
10% of the residentsthere involve in the fishing industry whereas 80%
involve in the agriculture (mainly rubber, palm oil) sector. Besides these two main
economic activities, some residents involve in the manufacturing, construction,
retail, hotel and restaurant sectors. Apart from that, some enterprising residents
have set up their handmade noodle (Fu Qing MeeSuah) business. Besides that,
people in the village are famous for seafood cooking. Thus,there are many seafood
restaurants in the village. Since the village is located near the seaside, the price for
seafood is very cheap when compared to other places.
Seafood Restaurants
There is no supermarket, mini market, banks and hair salon and therefore
residents need to travel to Manjung town center for such services.

PROBLEMS
There are several socio-economic problems faced by the residents in
KampungCina. Firstly, there is not enough land for farming. This is due to
increased housing development in the surrounding areas. Due to this, there is a
shortage of empty land for recreational activities.
Secondly,the condition of the roads is not good. There are lots of potholes
along the roads and there are no street-lighting. Therefore, the safety of the road
users is in danger.
Thirdly, the public transportation system should be improved. There is no
bus service in Kampung. Cina and eventually causing inconvenience to the
villagers. They have to walk to the Sitiawan for bus service.
Fourthly, there is no clinicor hospital at all in Kampung. Cina. The
villagers face problemsduring emergencies. For example, if a person faints, it
takes 20 minutes for the ambulance to reach the house, and this delay may cause
danger to one’s life.
Lastly,there are sea pollutions around the area. The local authority should
take more effort to maintain or improve it although the pollution level is below
average.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Promoting the village
KampungCina is just a small village by the sea and many Malaysians do
not know the existences and attractions. However, we foundKampungCina has
many potential for tourism like its beautiful beaches, greenery sites and mangrove
swamps which can be turned into eco-tourism locations. Thus, we recommend the
local or national tourism board to promote KampungCina at the national and
international levels. Once the village is turned into tourism hotspot, the local
economy will improve significantly.
Lack of substantial public facilities
There is no police station in the village to ensure law and order. We
recommend the local authorities to set up a police station. Next, there is no fire
station or health clinic in the village and thus we recommend the local authorities
to solve this problem.
