Towards developing a framework of enviropreneurial marketing strategy for SMEs in Malaysia
Enhancing business performance is the most desired goal among businesses. Currently, corporate businesses are moving towards enviropreneurial marketing (EM) strategy to gain competitive advantage by introducing green products to the consumer market.

Considering this, the purpose of this paper is to provide new theoretical viewpoint on marketing in regard to business and environmental sustainability, particularly for dealing with the environmental issues from the perspective of SME entrepreneurs in Malaysia. Four marketing strategies (product, price, promotion and place) have been conceptualized in EM strategy to achieve superior SMEs’ performance. A conceptual framework is developed and justified in order to make a novel contribution to marketing theory and practice. Directions for future research conclude the discussion
The Impact of Infrastructure on Trade in Malaysia
This study examines the role of infrastructure on trade in Malaysia from 1980 to 2013. The main objective is to test the addition of infrastructure into the augmented gravity equation and to examine the effects on trade through improvements in infrastructure. The impact of infrastructure on trade between Malaysia and 36 countries was examined using panel data analysis. The robustness of the results was tested by applying the pooled OLS, random effect model, and fixed effect model. The Hausman results offer support to the fixed effect model. The findings showed that all variables of infrastructures are significant and positive corresponding to the volume of trade between Malaysia and its trading partners</jats:p
Does it matter who exhibits more green purchase behavior of cosmetic products in Asian culture? A multi-group analysis approach
This study attempts to investigate the moderating effect of gender on value-belief-norm relationships. In addition, this study aims to investigate the factors that affect green purchase behavior of cosmetics products. Particularly, this study investigates the causal relationships between values and pro-environmental beliefs, pro-environmental beliefs and personal norms and personal norms and green purchase behavior. An online survey was carried out which yielded 240 usable responses among which 79 responses were obtained from males and 161 from females. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling, partial least square (PLS-SEM) approach and multi-group analysis (MGA) technique. Results revealed that all direct relationships were supported by the data. It was also found that gender moderates the relationships between altruistic values and pro-environmental beliefs, pro-environmental beliefs and personal norms and personal norms and green purchase behavior. Nevertheless, gender did not moderate the link between hedonic value and pro-environmental beliefs. This study contributes to the existing literature by considering gender as a moderator, which is comparatively new in the green purchase behavior literature. In addition, this study examines few new linkages: more specifically, incorporating hedonic value in value-belief link and adapting value-belief-norm (VBN) theory in measuring consumers’ green purchase behavior

THINK HOSTEL MAINTENANCE SYSTEM (THMS)
This study deals with the complete development of the building maintenance system
equipped with several features that are relevance to produce an enterprise problem
reporting system. The objective of this project is to easily record and identifY which
area of V5 buildings are in need of attentions. Currently, the maintenance system of
new V5 buildings is done traditionally whereby the problem reporting processes are
done through a messy paper-based system. The scope of the study is the
implementation of dynamic graphic in problem notification and reporting. Dynamic
graphic has been widely used by the other web based system especially in weather and
natural disaster prediction system. Here, the implementations of dynamic graphics are
clearly discussed with the theory and technical requirement. The author has chosen
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with rapid prototyping as the methodology
for the project management framework. Author has done analysis regarding user
preferences and based on the analysis's result, author has come out with a set of
features that need to be embedded on the system. It includes dynamic graphic
notifications and text reporting process to be applied in the system. In the result and
discussion, the system modules, system's user interface and testing are included. As a
conclusion, the extensive usage of mapping and dynamic graphic notification could
defmitely increase the services of problem reporting system in the proposed system
