Abstract : In this study, it was investigated the water environment in an emerging country and compared and discussed the differences with Japan. The study was conducted at the Universiti Teknologi Mara in Selangor, Malaysia. The samples were tap water, river water, and leachate from a landfill site in Malaysia. The results showed that tap water quality was better in Japan than in Malaysia. Although some of the Malaysian tap water quality items did not meet the standard values, most of the items met the standard values. The water quality of Japanese rivers was also better than that of Malaysian rivers. On the other hand, a comparison of the Edo river, an urban river in Japan, and Malaysian rivers showed similar values, suggesting that urban areas in Japan and Malaysian rivers are at the same level of pollution. Through my study abroad experience, I have learned to think from many perspectives and not be bound by one set of values when considering things. Also, thanks to the warmth and hospitality of the Malaysian people, I was able to enjoy my life in Malaysia.
