Abstract
The only available data from the Airport have been used to examme the effects of azr pollutzon and urbanzzatzon on VIsibility m the Kuala Lumpur - Petalmg jaya area. Although evidence were still mconcluszve, there appeared to be a slight trend of deterwratmgVlsibility durmg the 1966-75 decade particularly m the vzsibillty range of≥ 32.0 km (≥20 miles). The growth of urbanzzatzon and mdustrzal development wlthm and around Kuala Lumpur - Petalmg jaya coupled wzth the absence of any form of
smoke control measures have probably been the maJor contributory factors.
