    People are the main source in determining the glory of any country or organization. Therefore people
    are the most precious capital of a country or organization and referred to as human capital. In any
    organization, manager plays important role among available human capital. Manager actions will shape
    the management of the organization and will lead the organization to achieve its goals. For Islamic
    organization, implementation of Human Capital Development (PMI) based on a Western perspective, will considered as a less appropriate approach. This paper aims to develop a conceptual model of PMI
    from an Islamic perspective. Furthermore, this paper aims to provide useful insights for managers or
    policy makers in understanding how to do Islamization in their organization and what needs to be done
    to ensure successful process of Islamization. This study will fill the gap of knowledge on PMI based
    Islamic perspective which consider quite limited. Qualitative method using existing available literature
    through content analysis was used in this study. The study showed that PMI based Islamic perspective
    should be encompass by both physical and spiritual (mind and emotions) aspects. The development of
    both aspects will able to generate taqwa human capital which characterized by amar ma’ruf nahi
    mungkar, has a clear mission, tawazun, sakinah, moral dignity and mutual cooperation. As conclusion,
    PMI based Islamic perspective will have implications for the training conducted in organizations which
    should not only focus on the physical aspect, but also need to focus on the spiritual aspect.

    Kajian ini memberi tumpuan terhadap salah satu kategori lakuan bahasa yang diperkenalkan oleh Searle (1969), iaitu lakuan ekspresi. Lakuan ekspresi ialah ujaran-ujaran yang menunjukkan pernyataan psikologi yang memberi gambaran tentang sikap dan perasaan penutur. Analisis kajian ini dilakukan terhadap ujaran-ujaran yang terdapat dalam 40 artikel kritikan Tun Dr. Mahathir dalam isu 1MDB. Melalui kajian ini, sebanyak lima kategori telah dikenal pasti, iaitu lakuan pernyataan, lakuan kritikan, lakuan rujukan, lakuan arahan, dan lakuan ekspresi. Namun demikian, kajian ini hanya memberi tumpuan terhadap lakuan bahasa ekspresi. Analisis mendapati lakuan ekspresi menunjukkan bilangan ujaran paling sedikit berbanding dengan kategori lakuan bahasa yang lain, iaitu sebanyak 20 kekerapan. Lakuan pernyataan mencatatkan kekerapan tertinggi, dengan jumlah kekerapan sebanyak 1302 ujaran, diikuti oleh lakuan kritikan di tempat kedua dengan kekerapan sebanyak 828. Lakuan rujukan dan lakuan arahan masing-masing dengan kekerapan sebanyak 297 dan 128. Hal ini menunjukkan bahawa Tun Dr. Mahathir melakukan kritikan tanpa mengutamakan ekspresi perasaan atau emosi. Sebanyak tujuh sublakuan ekspresi yang ditemui, iaitu lakuan bimbang, hairan, ucapan selamat, kehendak, enggan, minta maaf, dan ucapan terima kasih. Hal ini merumuskan bahawa dalam kritikan, khususnya kritikan bertulis, Tun Dr. Mahathir tidak menunjukkan ekspresi emosi yang berlebihan.

    The Open Market scenario provides high levels of unreliability to culinary arts graduates where they
    are no longer promised a place in the hospitality and tourism sectors but rather to compete with
    graduates from other fields for employment. Hence, the field of entrepreneurship is seen as an
    alternative in building a career that can help in reducing the dumping of graduates in the job market in
    line with the government's call encouraging more entrepreneurs in Malaysia. Therefore, this study is
    aimed at identifying the tendency to entrepreneurship among students of the final year semester of the Diploma in Culinary Arts, Hospitality School and Tourism Kolej Yayasan Pelajaran Johor
    (SHPKYPJ). Measurements for this study were based on surveys using questionnaire and data
    collected by Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS) Version 21.0. The results of the study
    found that overall respondents have a high inclination towards entrepreneurship. If they are more
    focused, encouragement and exposure are given to them, the probability that they become
    entrepreneurs after graduation will be higher.

    Negotiation is a crucial tool for resolving a dispute. The outcome of every negotiation relies heavily on
    the negotiation strategies of the parties involved, the exchange of information and their characters
    during the negotiation process. Considering distributive approach, the negotiators are more interested
    in the maximization of personal achievements as they are not concern in collective or joint success with
    their partners. One of the key requirements for the integrative strategy is cooperation between the
    negotiators while distributive strategy is purely for a competitive approach. These two types of
    strategies distributive and integrative are in relation to the behavior and attitudes negotiators normally
    display in a negotiation table: cooperative and competitive. The reason why negotiators commonly
    used cooperative and competitive strategies are mentioned in this paper, distributive and integrative
    strategies are also summarized. Follow by possible solution of overcoming the negotiation challenges
    is discussed.

    The higher learning institution especially private college is growing day by day with the variation of
    course especially for the culinary art students. Culinary Arts is one area in Technical Vocational
    Education and Training (TVET) where students need to adapt the real-world working as a chef besides
    fundamental subject matter knowledge, techniques and hands-on skills for cooking in order to survive
    in the industry. The course syllabus of culinary art is patterned to provide a stage for students who want
    to be a chef in the future. This study is looking forward to find the importance of internship in Kolej
    Yayasan Pelajaran Johor towards culinary art students. The internship is gradually enhancing the
    student knowledge, confidence level and performance which enable them to be more confident when
    coming back from internship. This positive indication and feedback may affect towards students,
    lecturers, private institutional itself and Ministry of Higher Education.

    Fabian Society is a type of political think tank which was founded by a group of students and
    intellectuals at London School of Economics (LSE), United Kingdom in the late of 19 centuries. The
    Fabian political thought is a new manifestation of socialist ideology in United Kingdom emerged through the role of Labour Party Partiat that time. After the World War II, the influence of this political
    thought began to widespread throughout Malaya via British-educated Malayan students. This
    development brought about a new form of political idealism based on social-democrat orientation
    which emphasized on class struggles and civil issues in Malaya. Thus, the aim of this article is to
    scrutinize objectively and descriptively the influence of the Fabian political thought in the Malaysian
    political development from 1952 to 1970. Using the approach of history reconstructionist, the analysis
    discussion was developed based on the use of primary sources as the argument base. The research
    findings indicate that the influence of the Fabian political thought developed in Malaya by the role of
    the socialist intellectual-progressive group throughout the research. The development did not only
    involve labour movements and left-wing political parties such as Malayan Democratic Union (MDU)
    and the Malayan Labour Party, but it also influenced students movements at universities through
    University of Malaya Socialist Club in Singapore around 1950s and students societies in Universiti
    Malaya, Kuala Lumpur around 1960s. In fact, at the same time the progressive Fabian group slipped in
    right-conservative group through their direct involvement in UMNO and the Perikatan regime at the
    time. This indirectly proves that there is a different side of the socialist role through the role of the
    Fabian group in the development of democracy and politics in Malaysia.

    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 examined the influence of psychosocial factors on student’s academic performance. Selfadministered
    questionnaire was applied as the method of data collection and a sample of 339 students’
    from five faculties/schools in Potiskum College were chosen based on stratified and simple random
    sampling techniques to complete the survey. After analyzing the data collected, Person’s correlation
    coefficient reflected that, there was a positive and significant correlation between the all four variables:
    students’ attitudes towards lecturers, academic self-efficacy, students’-lecturers’ interaction and
    academic performance. Moreover, multiple regression analysis by using stepwise method was
    conducted to estimate the prediction power of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The
    finding indicated that only attitude and interaction could significantly predict students’ academic
    performance by R2=65.6%. Meaning academic self-efficacy failed to predict academic performance in
    present study. To conclude in this study, attitude and interaction are important factors in influencing
    students’ academic performance positively in Potiskum College of education, Nigeria.

    Present research investigated the impact of executive dysfunction on academic performance among
    students in their middle childhood. It was hypothesized that school teacher’s rating of executive
    dysfunction in students can significantly predict their performance in Mathematics and Science
    subjects. The study used primary data which was collected from public schools of Lahore. An
    indigenized executive dysfunction inventory was constructed for this purpose and psychometric
    properties were established. It was postulated that student’s performance in Science and Math will vary
    based on their executive dysfunction and the results attested to this hypothesis. Demographic properties
    were also evaluated through age, number of siblings, gender, family system, and mother profession.
    Statistical findings revealed that higher level of executive dysfunction is associated with lower level of
    science and math performance.

    high-performance leadership is placed in each school that refers to the principal and headmaster of
    excellence. High-performing leaders are recognized to drive the achievement of students towards
    excellence due to their ability to ensure the civilization and positive school environment, clear
    direction, close collaboration, high commitment, staff improvement program and good external
    relation. Recognizing the importance of high-performing leaders in creating more Cluster School of
    Excellence (SKK), the criteria, leadership training and leader development process are highlighted as
    well as describing the study gap based on the development of high-performing leadership. The criteria
    of high-performing leaders include leaders’ practices, preliminary factors, and leaders’ future direction.
    Next, leadership training such as NPQEL is closely linked to the Continum Leadership Development.
    Leadership development is based on leadership phase before starting career, while being a teacher, before becoming headmaster, while being headmaster, while being SKK headmaster, and future phase.
    Discussions on these aspects have led to the findings of the study’s gap on matters in the development
    phases of SKK’s headmaster as well as in the conceptual framework that have a profound impact on

    Research study is an academic methods applied in real world in solving problems associated with the
    society. The research process in achieving objectives of study will have a complete framework
    including methodology. Methodology can be defined as method used to collec and compile data
    through effective procedures in resulting the study problems. Methodology is divided into three stages,
    namely the planning process, application process, and analysis process. This literature review of
    methodology framework prioritizes on the planning process that involve with research study design,
    which can be divided into an experimental and non-experimental. Experimental methods can be
    categorized into real-experimental studies and quasi-experimental studies. Meanwhile, nonexperimental
    can be divided into experimental survey, field studies, case studies, action studies and
    historical studies. Mostly experimental methods are used in pure science and non-experimental methods used in social sciences. However, both methods are still relevant to be applied into certain
    areas of study in order to achieve the objectives and hypothesis. Therefore, the methodology are
    compulsory to be designed and applied properly, precisely and accurately so that the process of
    collecting data in the period of before, during and after collection will not involve with ant errors,
    mistakes and carelessness that may affect the research study.

    Methodology is compulsory in research study that involve with the process of design,
    application, and analysis. The literature review was conducted to describe the relationship of
    sampling area, sample size, and determination of the measurement scale. The sample size can
    be determined through formula (or equation). When sample size are applied in sampling area,
    probability and non-probability sampling will be involve in determining the quantity and
    quality of data collection for research. Random probability sampling is divided into simple
    random, systematic, stages random, various stages random, and grouping; while nonprobability
    sampling can be divided into chance, aimed, quota, snowball, dimensional, critical cases, and maximum variation. Next, the measurement scale can be determined through
    normal, ordinal interval and ratio in questionnaire or interview, which all four scales will be
    determine measurements such as Likert scale, Thurstone scale, Guttman scale, and the
    difference procedures of Sematics scale in carrying out an analysis research. Therefore, the
    sample size and sampling area, and also the choice of measurement scale is important in the
    methodology for smoothing and accelerating the process of collecting and gathering data.
