    abstract = {This study attempts to identify the relationship of the rural youth with Pahang 
  and Muar Rivers. This is a quantitative study and used developed questionnaire 
  for collecting its data. A total of 165 rural youth settled along Pahang and 
  Muar Rivers have been selected as the respondents. Findings have confirmed that 
  a majority of rural youth still needs the rivers for their recreational activities 
  while a small portion of them still rely on the river for their additional income. 
  The rural youth have demonstrated a high level of agreement on river development 
  as it offers them benefits with regard to locals’ development, environmental 
  awareness, social bonding and transportation. Further, analysis performed have 
  confirmed that factor of state have recorded significant difference with agreement 
  towards river development while the factor of distance to the nearest city have 
  recorded a positive and significant relationship with agreement towards river 
  development. A number of discussions have been placed and it is a hope that 
  such discussion will assist in any planning of developing Pahang and Muar Rivers.}
