A mixed viral infection of Newcastle Disease (ND), Marek’s Disease (MD) and Avian Leukosis (AL) was reported in village chickens. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of the F protein cleavage site of ND virus showed that the isolate was virulent with sequence KRRKR for the C-terminus of the F2 protein and phenylanine (F) at residue 117, the N-terminus of the F1 protein. Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) analysis showed the isolate was ND which was 96% similar identity with Indonesia Sukorejo genotype VII, MD 99% similar identity with China very virulent strain and ALV 100% similar identity with Taiwan ALV strain. Due to the free ranging type of management, causes of the diseases in the poultry were uncertain as many factors can contribute to the disease occurrence. However, good hygiene practices can help to improve the farm’s sanitary. Basic biosecurity system can be applied although the success may be limited. Vaccination is another alternative that can be considered to prevent the diseases with the help from certain parties.

Traceability system for livestock is an important infrastructurenecessary to monitor animal health, animal disease emergencies and quality assurance. The aim of this study was to evaluate farmer and trader willingness to use and pay for an animal identification and traceability system in Peninsular Malaysia. Data was obtained from aquestionnaire that was completed by 543 farmers and traders from the 10 states in the peninsula. Our results show that up to 54% respondents were willing to use and pay for an animal identification and traceability system. Gender and the length of experience of farmers and traders were factors significantly associated with theoutcome of this study. Female farmers and traders were less willing to use and pay for an animal identification and traceability system while farmers and traders with more experience in the cattle industrywere significantly more likely to provide a favourable response.
