Bencana tsunami ini sememangnya memberikan kesan terhadap kesejahteraan ekonomi dan sosial negara. Di antara negara-negara Asia Tenggara, Indonesia dikenal pasti sebagai salah sebuah negara yang sering menghadapi bencana tsunami. Malaysia yang kedudukannya berhampiran dengan Indonesia turut menerima kesan daripada bencana tsunami yang terjadi di negara berkenaan. Kejadian bencana tsunami yang sememangnya serius ini telah mendapat pelaporan yang meluas oleh media tempatan dan antarabangsa. Bencana tsunami yang lazimnya berlaku secara tiba-tiba dan sukar untuk dijangka ini telah menyebabkan pelaporannya berbeza dengan isu-isu lain seperti jenayah, hiburan dan sebagainya. Malah, kajian-kajian lalu turut mendapati bahawa media menghadapi pelbagai cabaran dalam melaporkan berita bencana seperti tsunami yang jelas memerlukan persediaan yang rapi bagi menghasilkan penulisan yang berkualiti dan beretika. Sungguhpun kejadian tsunami adalah serius, kajian-kajian lalu terhadap pelaporan media khususnya dalam aspek cabaran wartawan dalam melaporkan isu ini adalah amat terhad. Justeru, kajian ini dijalankan dengan matlamat untuk memenuhi kelompongan kajian lepas dan seterusnya menyumbang kepada korpus penyelidikan bidang Komunikasi Bencana di Malaysia dan Indonesia. Penyelidikan ini memberikan tumpuan terhadap cabaran-cabaran yang dihadapi oleh para wartawan kedua-dua negara dalam melaporkan berita tsunami. Temu bual secara mendalam telah dilakukan bersama lapan orang wartawan dari The Star Online, Malaysia dan The Jakarta Post, Indonesia. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa bilangan wartawan pakar isu terhad, pengetahuan terhad wartawan tentang bencana tsunami, kurang persediaan oleh bilik berita, pemotretan visual ketika bencana dan penentuan landskap berita oleh editor adalah cabaran-cabaran utama yang dihadapi oleh wartawan-wartawan di Malaysia dan Indonesia dalam melaporkan isu tsunami.
Kemiskinan merupakan satu fenomena yang dialami oleh seseorang individu tanpa kerelaan dan kehendak mereka. Kemiskinan boleh dikategorikan kepada dua jenis iaitu material dan bukan material. Miskin material terdiri daripada miskin pendapatan dan bukan pendapatan iaitu pendidikan, akses kepada kesihatan, pekerjaan dan kemudahan awam. Manakala miskin bukan material ialah berkait berkenaan ciri-ciri sahsiah seperti emosi, psikologi dan rohani. Kesemua keadaan yang berlaku ini menyebabkan seseorang yang miskin mengalami kesukaran untuk keluar dari situasi kemiskinan sekiranya tiada tindakan yang dilakukan oleh pihak bertanggungjawab. Pengukuran kemiskinan adalah langkah awal dalam mengenal pasti golongan miskin. Terdapat dua jenis iaitu pengukuran kemiskinan undimensi yang melihat kemiskinan dari sudut pendapatan sahaja dan pengukuran kemiskinan multidimensi yang melihat pada aspek holistik serta kemanusiaan. Terdapat banyak kelemahan pada pengukuran unidimensi kerana ia hanya mengukur kemiskinan dari perspektif pendapatan sahaja. Hal ini sudah tentulah tidak komprehensif dalam pengenalpastian golongan yang miskin. Oleh itu pengukuran kemiskinan multidimensi akan diterokai bagi memahami dengan lebih lanjut seperti perbezaannya dengan pengukuran unidimensi dan mengapakah Indeks Kemiskinan Multidimensi (IKM) adalah pengukur kemiskinan yang paling sesuai lagi berkesan. Kajian ini menggunakan data sekunder sebagai metodologi kajian. Hasil kajian ini dijangka bukan sahaja boleh mengetahui berapa ramai yang miskin dan peratusannya, malahan kita juga boleh mengetahui dimensi penyumbang utama kepada masalah kemiskinan. Melalui pengukuran ini, sesuatu program atau pemberian insentif dapat disalurkan dengan tepat kepada kumpulan sasaran.
Perubahan teknologi yang drastik disebabkan oleh perkembangan Revolusi Perindustrian 4.0 secara tidak langsung memberi impak kepada pembangunan negara dan trend pekerjaan. Keadaan ini telah menimbulkan kebimbangan dalam kalangan graduan pendidikan terutamanya dalam aliran Pendidikan dan Latihan Teknikal dan Vokasional (PLTV) untuk memenuhi keperluan perindustrian. Secara amnya, para graduan menerima kritikan kerana prestasi yang kurang memberangsangkan ketika memasuki alam pekerjaan. Keadaan ini mendatangkan masalah yang serius dalam perbincangan meja bulat terutama isu-isu yang berkaitan dengan kelayakan siswazah, kemahiran pekerjaan, dan kurangnya penyertaan dalam industri. Walau bagaimanapun, aliran PLTV telah diberikan perhatian yang serius apabila pembudayaan politik dan tindakan proaktif kerajaan yang berusaha meningkatkan jumlah pekerja mahir dalam negara. Artikel ini merungkaikan kebolehsuaian kerjaya sebagai faktor utama dalam menyelaraskan kesediaan tenaga kerja dengan landskap pekerjaan graduan. Perbincangan ini membawa kepada pemahaman perkembangan dimensi kebolehsuaian kerjaya dalam kalangan pelajar kolej vokasional di Malaysia. Hubungan antara pemboleh ubah yang dinyatakan merangkumi penerimaan sokongan sosial dan kebolehsuaian kerjaya turut dikaji. Penyelidikan ini dijalankan dengan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan melengkapkan set set soal selidik dan diedarkan kepada 226 orang pelajar diploma tahun akhir dalam enam program pengajian yang didaftarkan dengan menggunakan teknik persampelan bertujuan. Statistik deskriptif dan inferens telah digunakan menggunakan SPSS Versi 23 untuk memperoleh hubungan berdasarkan persoalan kajian. Pemahaman terhadap hala tuju masa hadapan dapat membantu graduan memahami hubungan yang mungkin wujud antara kebolehsuaian kerjaya dengan pemboleh ubah yang disebutkan bagi mencadangkan penambahbaikan untuk menggalakkan pelaksanaan kurikulum PLTV dalam memberi jaminan kebaikan kepada graduan negara bermula daripada peringkat akar umbi.
Latihan di tempat kerja merupakan faktor kritikal dalam meningkatkan kekuatan sumber manusia khususnya membentuk prestasi kerja yang optimis. Pengurusan latihan yang baik dan kreatif akan mempengaruhi kuantiti penyertaan dan tahap kepuasan daripada peserta. Walau bagaimanapun, pengurusan latihan secara atas talian di kebanyakan organisasi secara umumnya masih berada pada tahap yang rendah mendepani situasi sukar pandemik COVID-19. Sehubungan dengan itu, kajian yang dijalankan ini adalah berkenaan pengurusan latihan secara atas talian di Kementerian Pertahanan, Malaysia dalam konteks penerimaan peserta latihan. Terdapat tiga objektif dalam kajian ini iaitu mengenalpasti profil peserta latihan, menganalisis tahap kepuasan peserta terhadap latihan secara atas talian dan mencadangkan langkah penambahbaikan terhadap pengurusan latihan secara atas talian di sektor awam. Kaedah kajian yang digunakan adalah pemerhatian, temu bual tidak rasmi dan borang soal selidik yang diedarkan kepada 210 orang responden. Pemilihan sampel dilakukan menggunakan formula Taro Yamanae. Data kajian dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif frekuensi, CrossTabulation, Chi-Square dan analisis kolerasi menggunakan perisian Statistical Package for Social Sciences. Berdasarkan hasil kajian, didapati bahawa penyertaan peserta latihan secara atas talian disebabkan oleh faktor platform atas talian yang mudah untuk diakses, modul latihan secara atas talian yang interaktif, rakaman video latihan yang boleh dijadikan rujukan dan suasana latihan yang fleksibel di mana nilai min yang diperolehi adalah tinggi. Secara keseluruhan, tahap kepuasan responden terhadap pengurusan latihan secara atas talian adalah pada tahap sederhana. Oleh yang demikian, setiap latihan secara atas talian perlu diuruskan dengan dengan efisyen dari segenap aspek agar impaknya menjamin kepuasan dan keperluan pekerja.
Malaysia has previously experienced various incidents and issues involving race and religion and it has caused problems in terms of relations between races and religions. Issues involving religion and race often involve Islam, which is also the official religion of Malaysia. Islam is often a sensitive subject because it is often used as a tool to maintain the hegemony and status quo by the government in the context of Malaysia. In 2013, a non-governmental organization known as " COMANGO" submitted several demands involving human rights in Malaysia to the United Nations (UN) at the Universal Periodic Assessment (UPR). COMANGO was said to have made several demands that challenged the position of Islam and Malays in Malaysia and also promoting free sex. This issue has received widespread coverage in the Malaysian press; especially the mainstream press and it is seen as an issue that can benefit the government to strengthen their power by playing this issue to the general public. Therefore, this article aims to examine the messages delivered by the mainstream press on this issue, specifically Utusan Malaysia and The Star. The findings of the study show that the two newspapers provide almost the same coverage with little differences. Utusan Malaysia is seen as strongly opposing to COMANGO demands and elevates the UMNO party as a party that really fight for Islam while The Star, although seen as giving COMANGO more opportunities to express their stance, is seen to be cautious in their reporting on the issue
Healthy competition in the field of education makes every individual strive to improve their abilities and competencies in terms of knowledge, skills and values related to mathematics. Mathematics as an important communication tool in the pursuit of the progress of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era requires a community that is fluent and literate in mathematics. The main focus is to produce a generation of leaders who are analytical, critical and logical thinking urging the education sector to identify issues and shortcomings of self-efficacy related to mathematics from the grassroots level. The purpose of this study is to make a systematic literature review on the components of self-efficacy and its inclusion in mathematics education research. Two research questions that are emphasised are the components of self-efficacy and how self-efficacy is studied in empirical research in mathematics education. This study uses the PRISMA Model. Two search engines are used, namely the Education Resources Information Center (ERIC) and Google Scholar. Out of the 152 articles identified, a total of 20 articles were accepted that met the purpose of the study. Based on the analysis conducted, there are 4 components of self-efficacy that have been identified, namely mathematical self-efficacy, technological self-efficacy, academic self-efficacy and teaching self-efficacy. The findings also show that the majority of self-efficacy studies are conducted quantitatively compared to qualitatively. The main research lines observed were the level of self-efficacy, the relationship between self-efficacy and other relevant variables, and the development of self-efficacy. Although many previous studies have been conducted in the Asian continent, the number of studies that emphasise self-efficacy in the Malaysian environment is still considered small. Therefore, the results of this study are expected to provide a deep understanding so that such studies can be implemented in the context of education in Malaysia.
This paper presents an analysis on the resurgence of multiethnic political ideology in Sabah through the slogan of ‘Sabah for Sabahan’. It is found that after several decades of dealing with racial issues, Sabah is increasingly understanding the fact that politicizing ethnic differences will only lead to destruction. This situation was found to be an effect on the use of the slogan "Sabah for Sabahan". Therefore, the slogan should be considered as one of the important factors in the process of development or the resurgence of multi-ethnic political ideology in Sabah. In other words, this paper has shown that changes in political characteristics in a society characterized by diversity can be done through the creation and widespread use of specific political slogans that are very significant with the current needs and needs of the population in an administrative unit such as village, city and country

Behaviour is the way an individual translate input derived from interactions into action and reaction, either through verbal communication or through nonverbal communication. Behaviour is also influenced by an individual's emotions to respond or to react when interacting in the social context of society. However, social symptoms are getting a huge blow from the teens. The negativity in socialization are intensely prominent among teenagers. The behaviour of a school teen who violates the norm is a behaviour of a delinquent. These cases of misconduct have a negative impact on the wellbeing and peace of life in the community. In addition, there have been cases of social collapse of morals now widely circulating in the media regarding sexually explicit acts such as rape and premarital pregnancy. Several social factors can be identified to influence teens, of which most of them are still schooling. Therefore, this research aims to study the factors, relevance and differences of socialization in influencing individual behaviour. Total of 120 students, including 70 boys from Sekolah Tunas Bakti Sg. Besi and 50 girls from Asrama Bahagia Kg. Pandan. Both schools are those who are involved in juvenile cases and under control of the Department of Social Welfare (JKM). The design of the study is descriptive. Data was collected through a three-part questionnaire, which comprises of A Background Information of Students, B Five Socialization Factors, and C Aggressive Behaviour. The data collected was then analysed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) to evaluate percentages, frequency, correlation, T-test and Anova. Results found that male students were more likely to be influenced by mass media factors while female students were more likely to be influenced by peers. Ultimately, the research results reveal that the behaviour of individuals is influenced by three main factors, namely the media, peers and individual self. There were no significant differences between male and female gender for socialization factors influencing aggressive behavior. Therefore, some proposals have been formulated such as form new acts, emphasizing the importance of family as well as educational institutions such as schools.

Kerajaan Malaysia telah memberikan penumpuan terhadap aspek keselamatan dan pembangunan
pertahanan sejak dari kemerdekaan negara lagi. Pada ketika ini, ancaman yang dihadapi oleh negara
adalah melibatkan dua bentuk ancaman iaitu ancaman dari dalam negara dan ancaman dari luar negara.
Kebanyakkan negara khususnya di rantau Asia Tenggara telah mencapai kemerdekaan di antara tahun
1950-an dan 1960-an. Sebagai sebuah negara yang juga boleh dikategorikan juga baru mencapai
kemerdekaan, negara-negara di rantau Asia Tenggara ini tidak lari dari menghadapi pelbagai ancaman
yakni ancaman dari sudut dalaman negara seperti ancaman pemberontakan komunis semasa insurgensi,
konflik etnik, ketidakstabilan politik, rusuhan kaum, masalah perpaduan dan sebagainya telah menjadi
faktor yang juga telah mempengaruhi perbentukan Dasar Pertahanan Negara (DPN). Manakala
ancaman dari sudut luar seperti persempadan, persaingan kuasa besar antara Amerika Syarikat dan
Kesatuan Soviet semasa perang dingin yang juga menyebabkan berlakunya ketidakstabilan politik,
konflik dan peperangan di rantau Asia Tenggara, persaingan ideologi, ketegangan hubungan dan
konflik hubungan antara negara, ancaman terrorisme dan pemberontakan serta sebagainya telah
mempengaruhi dan memaksa negara Malaysia untuk membangun serta memodenkan sistem pertahanan
negara.
“Fenomena anarki” telah mempengaruhi kebanyakan negara untuk memberikan tumpuan dan
perhatian terhadap pembangunan Angkatan ketenteraan bagi menjamin keselamatan untuk tujuan
kelangsungan hidup. Manakala merujukkan kepada teori neo-realisme, teori ini mengatakan dilema
keselamatan sebagai situasi yang sentiasa ada ancaman yang cuba untuk menggugat keselamatan
negara mahupun ianya dari bentuk unsur ancaman tradisional mahupun dari unsur dari ancaman bukan
dari tradisional. Akibat dari senario keselamatan dan sifat anarki dalam sistem antarabangsa, keadaan
ini akan menyebabkan negara perlu bergantung pada diri sendiri untuk kelangsungan hidup. Ini
merujuk kepada konsep self help atau self reliance di mana setiap negara mempunyai kepentingan
negara mereka tersendiri dalam meneruskan kelangsungan hidup dalam sistem antarabangsa. Melihat
dari sudut Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM,) perspektif pembangunan dan pemodenan ATM semasa
era Perang Dingin dan Pasca Perang Dingin ternyata mempunyai perubahan yang signifikan di mana
pembangunan ATM sebelum tahun 1990 lebih bersifat konvensional dan pasca Perang Dingin
memperlihatkan pembangunan ATM bersifat lebih strategik.
This paper discusses the roles and challenges of the national language, which is Malay as a language in
uniting the various ethnic groups in Sabah. On September 16, 1963, the Federation of Malaysia was
officially declared which comprised of the Malay States, Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak. In line with
that, the special provisions on the national language in Sabah are contained in Article 161 of the
national constitution. Although the provision of the constitution clarify that Sabah was given a 10-year
period to use Malay and English as the official languages but later on September 16, 1973 the Malay language was declared the sole official language for the state of Sabah. Hence, various efforts have
been made by the government to ensure the national language can play its role as a language that can
unite the various ethnic groups in Sabah. However, ethnic diversity with their own ethnic mother
tongue languages has resulted in the Malay language as a national language as well as the language of
unity to face many challenges. Therefore, the discussion in this paper is focused on policies undertaken
by the government to strengthen the national language in various fields in Sabah and the challenges
faced by the national language to foster unity among the various ethnic communities in the state. This
study was conducted using a qualitative analysis approach and used archive study methods as well as
library study to obtain research information sources. This study will produce an analysis that can be
used as a reference to improve or formulate policies particularly in matters that benefit in strengthening
the multi-ethnic communities in Sabah.
There are a few types of expenditures in Malay wedding. Hence, this research reports on wedding
expenditures practice by Malay in Malaysia. Some of the wedding expenditures practiced by Malay are
bride price and invitation cards. Through extensive observation, it can be said that the society often
confuses between the bride price (hantaran) with marriage settlement (mas kahwin). Besides that,
society also prefers to organize a grandeur wedding to the extent that the wedding becomes a burden on
them. This research also discusses how a small bride price and a decent wedding can fulfill one of the
maqasid al-syariah which is preserving one’s possession. Researchers use library research as the
primary method to obtain information on the origin and value of bride price (hantaran kahwin) in ‘urf
Melayu, and the analysis on wedding expenditures promoted by Islamic religion. Research findings
show that Islamic religion does not forbid cultural wedding expenditures, however, it must be
moderate, considerate, and is not burdening.
This study aimed to examine the influence of self-regulation as mediator of internet behavior and
perceptions of risky sexual behavior among public university students. The method used is by survey.
The research tools used include the Persepsi Tingkah laku Seksual Berisiko, the Internet Sex Screening
Test, and the Adolescent Self-Regulation Inventory. The sample consisted of 882 Public University
students selected using simple random sampling techniques. The collected data were analyzed using
SPSS 25.0 package. The result shows that self-regulation had a significant mediating effect on internet
behavior on responding to risky sexual behavior. This effect can be identified primarily in one of the
dimensions of online behavior, which is online sexual spending. The result obtained are very important
to prove that self-regulation among students has a mediating effect on their behavior while surfing the internet with perceptions of risky sexual behavior. The results of the study can also enhance students'
understanding and awareness of the role of self-regulation in defining goals and actions. Universities
can use research information to design programs that enhance student self regulation as they are among
the professional groups that inherit the nation's development.
Research has shown that smoking has bad implications on smokers and society as a whole. For that
matter, the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOHM) have taken various initiatives through information
technology and social media to educate the public and students about the negative effects of smoking.
The objective of this study is to identify the level of awareness among students on factors which lead to
smoking behaviour and the negative effects it has on society. This study was conducted on 228
students at the Faculty of Quranic and Sunnah Studies, Islamic Science University of Malaysia. The
research is quantitative in nature using questionnaire method. The quantitative data were then analysed
descriptively in Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) to obtain the frequency and percentage.
The finding of the study shows that the level of students’ awareness on factors leading to smoking
habit is at a satisfactory level. The students are aware that peers are the main contributing factor
towards smoking habit. The level of awareness on the harmful effects of smoking is also at a
satisfactory level. The students’ awareness is influenced by their field of study which is Islamic studies
as well as their modest purchasing power considering their average family income range from RM1000
to RM3000. The conclusion of the study is the importance to educate students on the harmful effects of
smoking, as well as to maintain the level of awareness among them.
The Malaysian Constitution has set Malay language as the official language of the country and the
medium of teaching and learning (Noraien Mansor & Noor Rohana Mansor, 2013). The usage of the Malay language should not be disturbed as it becomes an important medium in establishing and
strengthening the harmonious and unity of the Malaysian society. However, it is found today that the
solidification of Malay language has continuously been challenged and undermined it as a national and
unity language as a result of the influence and development of the world's new order which shows that
the usage of English language has been prioritised in the field of education, employment and
communication (Nor Hashimah Jalaluddin, 2010). The emphasis on the importance of science and
technology as well as English language has been resulted in losing confidence towards the Malay
language among some individuals including the non-Malay students from the private universities and
those who are using English language as their learning medium. Furthermore, there is a group of
students who are more convenience in using their mother tongues languages than the Malay language.
This study aims to discuss the issue of the usage of Malay language in the private higher education
institutions and to analyse the weaknesses in the usage of Malay language among the private university
students. Hence, a study was conducted on 100 private university students by using random sampling
methods. The findings reveal that the level of strengthening of Malay language among the private
university students is moderate. This is due to the issues of Malay language usage in the private
universities including the students' priorities on the English language, lacking of fluency in Malay
language, lacking of co-operation and efforts among the lecturers and university management, lacking
of emphasis on constitutional meanings and lacking of confidence on the status of Malay language.
Thus, the scenario in strengthening the Malay language among the private university students should
not be undervalued but need to be strengthened prior to the threat of destruction as Malay language has
the greatest potential in various fields and this generation is able to shape the stability of social
relations as well as the continuity of the Malay language in the Malaysian civilization.
Accessible tourism is considered new-partially conceptual that being implemented in the tourism
industry. This study carry out to investigate and to determine disabled people in engage with the
tourism activities in Kuala Lumpur City. This study uses qualitative of face-to-face interview and
quantitative of questionnaire survey. Five domains had been set for interview purposes, while
questionnaire survey involved with two main parts, namely demographic profile and the experienced of
disabled people in expose to tourism activities in Kuala Lumpur city. This questionnaire uses
Thurstone scale and Likert scale. Complete collection data will be input using SPSS v.23 for analysis.
The result indicates majority participants are positively agreed that infrastructure or services, as well as
information map should be prepared in appropriated ways would increase the accessible tourism. The
education also plays an important role that able to sustain the accessible tourism industry for longer
term. Nevertheless, most of participants are partially disagreed in the facilities provided, which likely
to refer to the public toilets and transportations, as well as hotels management that should serve
specialty to disabled people. They do opinion that public facilities should be upgrade, as well as
comment on the hotel staffs should undergo for training and behave friendlier attitude, which important
to provide comfortable condition towards the disabled people. This study suggests disabled people
have self-encouraged in engage with the tourism activities in Kuala Lumpur. At the same time, further
study in exploratory, understandable, and predictable on accessible tourism are required, especially
involved in the sub-urban and rural area that provide facilities and services for the tourism industry.
