In Malaysia, the cadastral system that has served us for more than a century may not be able to continue doing so due to the lack of an advanced level of legal and technical framework. It would appear, therefore, that the legal institutions needed to be further improved to enforce land law satisfactorily. In view of the current Malaysian Cadastral System, the main task of this research is to reformulate, further improve and enhance the usefulness of the existing cadastral system and title registration of multilayer properties. To realize this, the objectives of this research are to examine the rights of land and property that dimension above, on and below the ground surface as provided by the National Land Code 1965 (Act 56), Strata Title Act 1985 (Act 318), the Building and Common Property (Maintenance and Management) Act 2007 (Act 663), Certified Plan and Document of Title, and to make recommendations for changes to facilitate a modern Malaysian Cadastral and Land Administration Systems.
