Abstract

Less controlled development at Chenang Beach created an unhealthy environment in the area. In fact, most of the built buildings are not approved by the local agencies. Hence, the purpose of this study is to identify the impact of development received by the community based on the effectiveness of development at Chenang Beach. Using stratified and systematic random sampling methods, this study was conducted in five villages within Chenang Beach area. Questionnaire were set up and distributed to 368 respondents. The findings show that there is a significant and negative relationship between the location of development and the impact of development. Whereas, in terms of planned development projects, the findings show that there is no relationship between the development project and the impact of development. However, the study also revealed significant finding, that is, when more areas are being developed, the acceptance among the local community are declining. In addition, this study also shows that development projects undertaken by the government or the private sector do not affect the society as a whole. Therefore, the need for planning and development begins from the aspirations of the local community so that the development implemented has a positive impact on society.
