Abstract: Bangladesh is a populous country in the world. Nowadays, urbanization takes the form of rapid growth of urban population. As a result, population density is being increased that influences average household size. This paper attempts to understand the key issues related to the population distribution. The purpose of the study is delineation of the formal region based on the population density, growth rate and average household size in context of sixty four districts of Bangladesh. The data are collected from Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), 2011. It analyzes the status of the regions which are fixed by Composite Index method. Among three classification methods, Mean-SD method is used to classify the region. Because, more symmetrical shape of histogram of normal distribution is found in Mean-SD method. It arranges the distribution of population within the 64 districts from high populated to low populated region which represents the actual population scenario of Bangladesh such as Dhaka, Narayanganj are high populated and Rangamati, Khagrachari, Barguna, Pirojpur are in the low populated region. This study gives a scope for future development of region and will be helpful for provision of facilities according to the ranking.

Abstract: The paper documents a study on the Minimum Standard Requirements (MSRs) and Sharia compliance of a Muslim’s cemetery on Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The site was selected, due to the historical and socio-cultural values that it holds amongst the urban community. The paper aimed to assess the existing infra development and planning layout of the landscape based on multiple methods of data collections (e.g., review of literature, site observation, and questionnaire survey). A finding shows that the crowded cemetery implicates a grave-finding location and pedestrian circulation within the sacred landscape. The result also suggests that lack of good landscape maintenance and management practices influence the visual quality of the landscape, which indirectly influences the image of the capital city of Kuala Lumpur. Hence, this study has merits because it provides objective solution to assist stakeholders to consider establishing a Muslim’s cemetery at an urban setting using MSRs of infra that comply with the Sharia.
