Discription		:	..	Malaysia is free from several destructive and widespread natural disasters but often affected by flood disaster that causing an
	…………..		..	estimation of RM 900 million flood damage annually. This damage value only focuses on land and property prices. Therefore, It is very essential to adopt any means or tools to reduce or prevent floods. Basically, there are two types of flood prevention measures: a) structural and b) non-structural measures. Structural measures generally involve high cost projects, give impact on the ecological balance, damaging to the environment and natural ecosystems and considered as an unsustainable project. Due to this reason, non-structural has gained more attention especially focuses on “Flood Risk Management”. Flood risk management has become more important in risk assessment rather than hazard as flood risk map is capable to show the potential consequences of flooding to a community and its contents. DID has not yet developed a suitable approach to produce a flood risk map but has proposed flood risk management concept (DID Manual). Therefore, this study will be a good initiative to develop a new framework to produce a local based flood risk map. A flood risk map will take into consideration the risk to human, environment, and economy in a particular area. Flood risk mapping conveys valuable spatial messages, especially emergency planning and spatial planning.
