    Full text link
    Penelitian ini merupakan kajian tentang isu hubungan gender dengan rumah Jawa sebagai rona (setting) budaya. Diawali dengan latar bahwa rumah dalam budaya Jawa adalah manifestasi dari konsep “omah-omah’ (berumah tangga) yang melibatkan peran laki-laki dan perempuan, sehingga berimplikasi pada konsep hubungan gender, dan akhimya berimplikasi pada ranah peruangan. Kampung Batik Laweyan Surakarta sebagai kasus studi merupakan permukirnan yang sebagian besar rumahnya mengadopsi arsitektur Jawa. Selain itu komunitas Laweyan yang mempunyai sejarah panjang sebagai pengrajin batik yang peran perempuannya tidak terbatas pada ranah ariable saja, tapi juga mencakup ranah ariab. Dari paparan tersebut dapat disusun rumusan masalah yang mencakup: pertama, bagaimana pemahaman penghuni tentang konsep rumah yang mereka huni, ditinjau dari dinamika peruangan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada rumah Jawa di Laweyan pada konteks masa kini? Kedua, bagaimana menjelaskan dinamika peruangan pada rumah Jawa di Laweyan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada konteks masa kini? Ketiga, bagaimana menjelaskan konsep rumah Jawa di Laweyan ditinjau dari dinamika peruangan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada konteks masa kini? Tujuan penelitian ini meliputi tiga hal, yakni: pertama, untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan perihal pemahaman penghuni tentang konsep rumah yang mereka huni, ditinjau dari dinamika peruangan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada rumah Jawa di Laweyan pada konteks masa kini. Kedua, untuk mendapatkan penjelasan tentang dinamika peruangan pada rumah Jawa di Laweyan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada konteks masa kini. Ketiga, untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan tentang konsep rumah Jawa di Laweyan yang telah mengalami dinamika peruangan dan perubahan hubungan gender pada konteks masa kini. Metode penelitian dibangun berdasarkan pada paradigma ariable ic , dan selanjutnya dikembangkan dengan merujuk pada pendekatan kualitatif. Berdasarkan penyelidikan di lapangan, secara purposif dapat dijaring dua belas rumah yang dimungkinkan dilakukan pengamatan lebih mendalam (in depth). Hasil penelitian rnenunjukkan bahwa fenomena perubahan hubungan gender pada kasus studi rnernpunyai tiga varian hubungan gender, yakni: dominasi peran perempuan, dominasi peran laki-laki, dan berusaha membagi peran yang sama (kesetaraan). Selanjutnya tatanan peruangan rnengalami pergeseran bersamaan dengan digunakannya rumah sebagai tempat usaha batik. Pola ranah gender mengalami pergeseran, yakni: pendhapa bukan lagi merupakan ranah maskulin. Selain itu sebagian besar peruangan bergeser rnenjadi ranah ariab, termasuk senthong. Dengan dernikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa isu hubungan gender dengan rumah Jawa di Laweyan sebagai rona (setting) budaya menunjukkan bahwa tata nilai dan tatanan peruangan rumah Jawa telah bergeser, serta ditemui penggunaan elemen baru pada peruangan untuk pemenuhan kebutuhan kegiatan usaha batik

    Textual foundation of law of crimes: harmonization between Penal Code and Islamic criminal law

    No full text
    The law of crimes defines criminal and delinquent behavior and specifies sanctions that are enforced by a threat of punishment. In Malaysia, most of the penal provisions are contained in the Malaysian and Indian Penal Code. The Code declares what acts or omissions are offenses and also provides for their punishment. It specifies the circumstances in which an act or omission will be regarded as an offense. This includes acts or omissions done intentionally, knowingly, voluntarily, fraudulently, or dishonestly. It classifies offenses such as those affecting the human body (e.g., murder, causing hurt), affecting the property (e.g., theft, robbery), affecting reputation (e.g., defamation, insult), affecting public peace (e.g., unlawful assembly, rioting) and those affecting public health and safety (e.g., adulteration of food). It also determines the nature and quantum of punishment to be given for specific offenses. Besides Malaysian and Indian Penal Code, there are numerous statutes that are either designed to punish specific offenses such as the Dangerous Drug Act 1952, or which seek to regulate specific activities and only punish those who violate the rules (e.g., the Food Act 1983). Some statutes provide for preventive detention of persons without trial in a court of law, and this is to prevent them from engaging in any activity prejudicial to the peace, order, and security. The main objective of this book is also to deal with the process of harmonization of substantive law between the two legal systems i.e. the Modern Secular Law and Islamic Criminal Law. Thus, this book will undoubtedly greatly assist law students and legal researchers who must study the subject and the lecturers who have to teach the subjects. Legal practitioners will also find this book useful as the author has sought to state the law and looked academically and critically at the Courts’ decisions. The author believes that this book will become a must for those who are interested in the field of Criminal Justice System

    Full text link
    Regional science policy aims at the creation of productive knowledge clusters, which are central places within an epistemic landscape of knowledge production and dissemination, K-clusters are said to have the organisational capability to drive innovations and create new industries. The following paper will look at Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam and their path towards a Knowledge-based economy. All governments have used cluster formation as one of their development strategies. Some evidence on the current state of knowledge cluster formation is provided. If the formation of a knowledge cluster has been the government policy, what has been the result? Is there an epistemic landscape of knowledge clusters? Has the main knowledge cluster really materialised? Data collected from websites, directories, government publications and expert interviews have enabled us to construct the epistemic landscape of Peninsular Malaysia and the Mekong Delta of Vietnam. Several knowledge clusters of a high density of knowledge producing institutions and their knowledge workers have been identified and described. An analysis of the knowledge output, measured in terms of scientific publications, patents and trademarks show that knowledge clusters have, indeed, been productive as predicted by cluster theory, though the internal working of clusters require further explanation.Science policy; knowledge and development; knowledge-based economy; knowledge clusters; knowledge corridors; Malaysia; Vietnam

    Rigidity of frameworks / Daud Mohamad

    Full text link
    The term "frameworks" is normally referred to a collection of rods and Connectors/hinges. However, some people tend to used terms such as linkages, linkworks and mechanisms. basically, in mathematics, a framework consists of two sets, a finite set of vertices and a finite set of edges. Many things can be considered as frameworks, from little things such as a cube or a triangle to larger constructions such as skycrapers and transmission line towers etc. One important characteristic of a framework which the author would like to discuss is rigidity. Consider one simple framework, that is a triangle. It is said to be rigid in R2 since we cannot change the relative position of its vertices. For a square, it is definitely not rigid, or we call it flexible since it can be transformed into a rhombus (refer Fig. 1) with the edge lengths remaining constant

    No full text
    The quest for national unity has become a leadership challenge for successive leaders of both Malaysia and Sri Lanka. While the two countries record significant differences in contexts and background, the similarities are equally striking. The following is an article that is based on a two-country study undertaken by the author to unpackage and explore the "1Malaysia" Programme that was launched in 2009 following the election of Malaysian Prime Minister's, Tun Najib Razak into his first term in office. The author spent a two week resident attachment at the 1Malayisa Foundation in Malaysia in the summer of 2012 to study further the facets of the governance programme that had been formulated with the intention of resolving the ethnic tensions that have plagued Malaysia since it gained independence, or Merdeka. The purpose of the endeavour was three-fold: First, to identify and extract aspects of the 1Malaysia Programme as relevant to the Sri Lankan context so as to formulate a potential 1Sri Lanka programme that is cognizant of the variables at stake. Secondly, the article seeks to critique the already existent framework of the 1Malaysia Programme by providing recommendations for improvement where necessary. Third, to begin dialogue and deliberations on the rich learning and exchange that can be cultivated between the two countries by providing a framework for bilateral cooperation between the Governments of Malaysia and Sri Lanka

    Spritzer Pop has long been in the market and for it to be produced and manufactured by a recognized local water producer; it should have been well known throughout the country. Unfortunately, some people do not remember or even known its existence. Although it has been displayed on the shelves along the drinking aisle in the supermarket or in the fridge of a 24-hour mini mart, people seem to ignore the product. According to the observation that has been made, it gives the impression that Spritzer Pop does not have its interest point. Customers do not get attracted to the product. Even the children who are supposed to be the main target audience of Spritzer Pop prefer to have another type of carbonated fruity flavored drinks.This research is made to figure out the reason behind the issue of lack of acknowledgement among customers as well as to gather the needs of this customer in order to increase the market sale of Spritzer Pop. According to “Market Smart: The Best in Age- and Lifestyle-Specific Design”, marketers as well as designers need to follow a few simple rules when marketing to children age 3-8 and teenagers and based on the survey that has been conducted by the researcher, these children and teenagers are the major consumers of Spritzer Pop. The author of the book highlighted among the rules are to understand the specific targets and how they are having a grasp of their cognitive, emotional and social attributes and capabilities; understand how young consumers process information; and how to communicate through visuals
