Worldwide Franchising Statistics (1995) where the consultancy surveyed state that the
franchising in Malaysia do not very developed as compared to the other country such as
United States and Japan. According to the author of research, Vitor F.C Goncalves &
etc .• "The presence of international franchise systems is dominant, but a small number
of local concepts were developed and some have already started international
operations". However, it is not easy to develop a small business while have to compete
with other franchising competitors such as Mc Donalds, KFC, Pizza Hut and other
cafes. According to it, The Scene Cafe and Bistro have its own operational strategies
and the most importantly how the concepts will be. We want to have an upscale,
relaxing and leisure interior design in order to attract and keep customers. In addition,
the cafe will be facilitating with innovative environment such as the affordable access to
the internet or online services, reading section, and a partition for the gamers.
Such as the Cafe Jubilee in Malta (1998), it is the first chain of cafe/bistro that
was totally conceived locally by itself. In the business proposal of The Scene Cafe and
Bistro is actually focus on the local operational to successfully stand with its own

The Current State-Of-Art of Copper Removal from Wastewater: A Review
No full textCopper is one of the chemical elements that is widely used in various sectors nowadays together with the development of civilization especially in agricultural and industrial sectors. Copper is also considered as one of the heavy metals that is commonly present in wastewater. This preliminary study conducted is mainly focused on the techniques of removal of copper in wastewater. There are a variety of approaches for treating industrial effluent contaminated with heavy metals such as copper. Copper separation can be accomplished using a variety of technologies, each of which has advantages that vary depending on the application. Chemical removal techniques that are commonly used for copper removal are adsorption, cementation, membrane filtration, electrochemical method, and photocatalysis. This study compares the fundamentals and performances of the treatment techniques in addition to the future perspective of copper removal in detail. The study highlights the present research in terms of its strengths and shortcomings, pointing out deficiencies that need to be addressed in future studies, pointing to future research prospects
Incidence and clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer among multi-ethnic patients in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: a hospital-based retrospective analysis over two decades
No full textBackground The incidence rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Asian countries is increasing. Furthermore, recent studies have shown a concerning rise in the incidence of CRC among younger patients aged less than 50 years. This study aimed to analyze the incidence trends and clinicopathological features in patients with early-onset CRC (EOCRC) and later-onset CRC (at age ≥ 50 years). Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 946 patients with CRC diagnosed from 1997 to 2017 at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre. The time trend was assessed by dividing the two decades into four 5-year periods. The mean age-standardized and age-specific incidence rates were calculated by using the 5-year cumulative population of Kuala Lumpur and World Health Organization standard population. The mean incidence was expressed per 100,000 person-years. Results After a stable (all age groups) CRC incidence rate during the first decade (3.00 per 100,000 and 3.85 per 100,000), it sharply increased to 6.12 per 100,000 in the 2008–2012 period before decreasing to 4.54 per 100,000 in the 2013–2017 period. The CRC incidence trend in later-onset CRC showed a decrease in the 2013–2017 period. Contrariwise, for age groups of 40–44 and 45–49 years, the trends showed an increase in the latter 15 years of the study period (40–44 years: 1.44 to 1.92 to 2.3 per 100,000; 45–49 years: 2.87 to 2.94 to 4.01 per 100,000). Malays’ EOCRC incidence rate increased from 2008–2012 to 2013–2017 for both the age groups 40–44 years (1.46 to 2.89 per 100,000) and 45–49 years (2.73 to 6.51 per 100,000). Nearly one-fifth of EOCRC cases were diagnosed at an advanced stage (Dukes D: 19.9%), and the majority of them had rectal cancer (72.8%). Conclusion The incidence of EOCRC increased over the period 1997–2017; the patients were predominantly Malays, diagnosed at a later stage, and with cancer commonly localized in the rectal region. All the relevant stakeholders need to work on the management and prevention of CRC in Malaysia

Pemahaman Untuk Desa
No full textMenjadi teramat jelas, di mana hampir semua ontologi “desa” menekankan lebih kepada keberadaan satu kawasan/wilayah, serta pengakuan akan nilai-nilai yang melekat pada aktivitas, dan cenderung dibuat berbeda khususnya secara administratif. Kita tentu tidak menolak bahwa secara administrasi kepemerintahan pembedaan antara Desa dengan bukan desa diperlukan untuk mempermudah identifikasi dan penyelesaian masalah. Namun pada faktanya, kita banyak menemukan bahwa desa lebih diartikan sebagai sesuatu yang tidak sama dengan wilayah lain dalam masalah keadilan sosial-budaya ekonomi dan bahkan kebijakan publik. Sehingga pembedaan adimistratif kemudian menurun kepada pembedaan penyikapan-penyikapan siapapun yang mencoba memahami desa
Comprehension To Village
No full textIt has become very clear, where almost all “village” ontologies emphasize more on the existence of an area / region, as well as the recognition of values inherent in activities, and tend to be made different, especially administratively. We certainly do not deny that administratively the distinction between Village and non-village is needed to facilitate the identification and resolution of problems. But in fact, we find that many villages are more interpreted as something that is not the same as other regions in terms of socio-cultural economic justice and even public policy. So the administrative differentiation then decreases to the distinction between the attitudes of anyone trying to understand the village
