The relationship between transformational leadership among principal with organizational citizenship behavior in secondary school in the East Coast Malaysia
No full textThe purpose of this research is to identify the level of
Transformational Leadership of Principal towards
Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB). This research is a
survey using questionnaire distributions. The questionnaire
utilized in this research is divided into three parts. The first part
of the questionnaire involves the questioning of the respondent
demographics. The second part is the 20 items of the dimension
of Organizational Citizenship Behavior based on Podsakoff
(1990). While the third part of the study questions contains 20
items describing the style of Transformational Leadership based
on instruments built by Bass and Avolio (1995). A total of 102
respondents have collaborated in the success of this research,
and two types of statistics were used, which named descriptive
statistics and inference statistics. The results of the study showed
that the majority of the respondents were tending to the
intellectual stimulating dimensions (mean 6.09) compared to the
motivational dimensions (min 5.98), individual consideration
dimensions (min 5.88) and charismatic dimensions (min 5.40).
The intellectuals’ stimulation is the fourth dimension embodied
in transformational leadership. The T-test was found to have no
significant relationship between the organization’s citizenship
behavior and the gender of the respondent. One of the objectives
of the study is to investigate the relationship between
Transformational Leadership and Organization Citizenship
Behavior. Hence, the correlation test has been used and the
findings show a significant relationship between
transformational leadership and the organization’s citizenship
behavior (r = 0.431). As such, the role and responsibility of the
Principals also need to change from time to time and they also
need to alter them based on time and situation. If a principal has
effective leadership qualities, then the mission and vision of
making an outstanding school can be achieved. On the other
hand, if a principal lacks character in his or her leadership, then
it will give an unfavorable effect on the achievement of a school

provide an overview of the IoT resource discovery categories,
main areas of the research, IoT platforms, simulation tools and
recommended solutions. Finally, we hope this review can
provides insight result for every IoT sources, propose appropriate
techniques or methods that can help to ensure the IoT resource
discovery becomes most effective in the future.
The principle of I'tibar Maalat in issuing the fatwas of muslim minorities
No full textImam Al-Shatibi has come up with the idea of considering maalat in order to
deal with Sharia rules, by considering their consequences when these rules come
to be implemented in reality. It is understood that mujtahid sometimes could not
apply rules as their origin as revealed, to avoid from removing the maslahah
(wisdom) that aimed by God through those rules. Therefore, this research
attempts to explain the concept of the principle of considering maalat as well as
its parameters in issuing fatwa of Muslim minorities. As known, some
circumstances of Muslim minorities have their own characteristics which would
be different than Muslim majorities in various aspects of life. Therefore, it is
required for Mufti to consider maalat in issuing a fatwa, for the sake of
maslahah of Muslim. Based on two methods: inductive and deductive, the
findings are: considering maalat must be applied under parameters of ijtihad
(an effort to issue the ruling from its sources); the rule must be understood in
terms of its illah (legal reasoning) and its wisdom; the consequences must be
real or strongly expected; considering priorities between maslahah; and do not
abolish the original rule
Dissecting Socio-demographics Profile of Malaysian Agribusiness Small-Medium Enterprise (ASME) Owners
No full textSmall businesses are beneficial for local economic prosperity as they contribute to the nation's financial gain and create job opportunities.At present, the Malaysian government aims to facilitate the growth of small businesses through innovation and productivity as a measure to become a high-income nation by 2020. However, agriculture sector-specific business data is still in scarce.Thus,this paper aims to provide the sociodemographic profile of Malaysian ASME owners as a measure to demonstrate the preparedness of small business owners,especially in the agribusiness sector to accept and practice changes promoted by authorities. Structured interviews were conducted with the aid of closed-ended questionnares with 297 respondents conveniently sampled from six different states: Terengganu,Perak, Selangor,Johor,Sabah and Sarawak.As a result,microscale businesses were found to dominate the business count for Malaysian ASMEs.Apart from that, 57.1% of businesses are conducting marketing as the core business activity. Processed food was found to be the most popular sub-sector ventured by Malaysian ASMEs owners, involving 41.6% of respondents. A gender imbalance of 16.2% was found in terms of participation with more male than female ASME owners. In terms of age, the participation of youth is 52.0%.However,only 32.6% of business owners had attained tertiary education. Most of the respondents (72.5) are married. In addition, 61.5% of ASMEs owners are having between one and five dependents
Integrated interface system for tool path generation of STEP file
No full textSTEP file is a CAD file , which is Standard for the Exchange of Product model data. It is the next generation of
data model between CAD/CAM and CNC system . It contains three-dimensional (3D) data in ISO 10303-21 format
that can be recognized and utilized by most of CNC programs. However, not all data available in the STEP files are
suitable for CNC G-Code programming. This paper describes the design, development and testing of an
Integrated Interface System , which aims to provide tool path generation for machining operation using STEP
file as an input file . The system provides function of reading and extracting the relevant information associated
with the machining data from STEP file , which eventually writes the Geometric Code (G-Code) file format as an
output file . The sample of machined block is designed from 3D CAD modeler that consisted of features need to be
machined from a blank work piece and saved in the STEP file format. The validation process uses the tool path
simulation via PC based CNC controller
Online News Portal in Malaysia - A Revisit to the Regulatory Regime Governing the Media in the Era of Media Convergence
No full textThe purpose of this study is to show that Malaysia as at 2019, cannot implement the rights envisaged under
the newly incorporated Article 31bis of the TRIPS Agreement in respect of flexibilities on public health,
as there are no provisions in the Patents Act 1983 permitting this. The main research question of this study
is why Malaysia should amend its Patents Act 1983 to incorporate the flexibilities provided by Article
31bis, although these flexibilities are optional and not mandatory provisions. Malaysia must have effective
strategies in implementing a good policy, law and governance in managing the country, especially in respect
of public health issues and ensure that there is balance of rights between intellectual property owners and the
public, at all times. This study is based on qualitative research, as the basis of this study is very much reliant
on primary sources being the TRIPS Agreement and the Patents Act 1983, supported by secondary sources
being journals and contents of authorities’ websites. This study is limited to issues related to public health
and patents only and does not deal with other types of intellectual property. The study encompasses the
relevant provisions of the TRIPS Agreement and Malaysian Patents Act 1983 related to patents and public
health; suggestions as to the amendments to be made to the Patents Act 1983 in respect of Article 31bis;
and a conclusion that although the rights envisaged under Article 31bis of the TRIPS Agreement is optional
and not mandatory, it is prudent for Malaysia to reflect these rights into the Patents Act 1983 immediately.
The outcome of the study shows that although Malaysia was early in accepting the public health flexibilities
amendments of the TRIPS Agreement in 2015, it currently cannot exercise these flexibilities, unless the
Patents Act 1983 is amended to incorporate these rights
Estimation models of the impacts of the economic and population growth to changes in CO2 emissions in indonesia using the Cobb-Douglas production function
No full textEconomic development is done to achieve economic growth of a country. Unplanned economic development has a
negative impact on environmental damage. The dynamics of economic growth and population is very potential for
global warming caused by the accumulation of CO emissions in the air. This paper intends to investigate the effect of
economic and population growth in increasing CO emissions in the air. The goal is to estimate the models that are
able to illustrate the relationship between economic growth and the population towards the changes in CO emissions
in the air. Model estimation is done by using product function in Cobb-Douglas, meanwhile parameter estimation is
done by using ordinary least square method (OLS). The results of the analysis show that the Cobb-Douglas production
function can significantly illustrate the relationship of economic and population growth influence to CO emission
change. The strength of the relationship can be shown by the coefficient of determination which reached 98.0%. This
shows the truth that the increase in CO emissions is significantly influenced by economic growth and population
