| description | Land use conflits occurs as a consequence of incompatibility of land uses and when the market force alone determines the land uses of an urban area. This study intends to look at urban land use conflits in small area of Jelutong in georgetown, Malaysia. The study identified three cases of land use conflicts in the area.
