What is Intraplate Earthquakes in Malaysia about?

This research article analyzes the occurrence and distribution of intraplate earthquakes in Peninsular Malaysia over the past 100 years, revealing low seismicity primarily due to its stable craton setting. The study identifies 59 recorded earthquakes, mostly shallow and associated with preexisting faults and reservoir activities, with magnitudes ranging from Mw 0.7 to 5.4. The findings contribute to understanding local seismic hazards and risks, particularly in populated areas affected by tectonic influence
