Abstract

Landslide is a natural process that is common in hilly areas, whether natural hills or areas that have been disturbed by human activity. Landslide is a type of geological hazard that become an issue and often gets attention at all levels of society. Increased of landslide cases in Malaysia and generate varies problems of social, economic, technical and legal cause a specific and precise definition of landslide to be accepted by all stakeholders in the country to allow a comprehensive landslide disaster risk management action to be created. Problems arise among scientists, professionals and other stakeholders to use the agreed upon of a geohazard and geodisaster term when translated from English. This paper discusses the acceptable definition and terms of the "geohazard" landslides in the context of Malaysia.
