Authors:   Olabisi Onabanjo University, OKUNEYE BABATUNDE
Published: April 2023

A number of studies in the digitalization-organizational performance literature have evaluated airline performance from the traditional performance theory; yet, fewer studies have evaluated the role of digitalization to optimize organizational bottom line performance. In view of the importance of digitalization-organization bottom line performance, this study empirically evaluates the role of digitalization in the airline performance before and during COVID-19 using the balanced scorecard performance model in the sample study, Emirate airline between 2015 and 2020. Importantly, multiple Pearson Product Moment correlation and descriptive statistics methods were used to estimate the relationship among the balanced scorecards performance. Also, the differential impact was used to show the differential impact and recovery period between before-COVID and during COVID-19 on the balanced scorecards performance. The empirical results showed that the role of digitalization practices is more effective in non-financial bottom lines than financial bottom line at both before and during COVID-19 in this study. Further, the study concluded that digitalization practices before COVID-19 enhances non-financial bottom lines than financial bottom lines whereas the role of digitalization practices during COVID-19 enhances neither financial nor non-financial bottom lines in Emirate airline. Therefore, this study recommends the need for Emirate airline management to further intensify and integrate digitalization practices across all the balanced scorecard bottom lines, especially the financial bottom lines such as revenue, operating cost and net debts to remain immune from current and future external shocks as well as become financial and non-financial sustainable.

Authors:   IGE Advisory, Malaysia, Mohd. Dom Adi Setia
Published: April 2023

The universality of human rights speaks not to ephemeral geopolitical hegemony but rather to immutable moral conscience in the hearts of people thinking and acting as moral agents. On this foundational premise, a viewpoint is put forth for a mutually prospective and people-centred engagement between Islām and the West on the concept and practice of human rights. This will entail each side to critically and creatively re-engage their respective traditions and heritage as they relate to the human rights discourse as part and parcel of a consensus building mutual engagement.
STATE-NGOS RELATIONSHIP AND DEVELOPMENT IN MUSLIM SOCIETIES: A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS ON POLITICAL SPACE FOR NGOS IN MALAYSIA
Authors:   Institute of Islamic Understanding Malaysia (IKIM), Malaysia, Abdul Aziz Enizahura
Published: April 2023

Development of a country is a significant marker of the successful planning and implementation of policies by the government. It also shows the government’s ability to manage the country’s resource and wealth efficiently and effectively. The study on development has shown that the underlying perspectives that dominate the discussions on economics also determine the meaning and indicators for development. This article discusses the two central actors in development by looking at the relationship between state and NGOs in a Muslim majority society i.e. Malaysia. It looks at the pattern of the relationship through the political space allowed for NGOs to operate. An analysis on this suggests that political orientation of the NGOs and importance of state political survival shape the pattern of state-NGO relationship especially during the era of the government under Barisan Nasional (BN). This article argues that despite the legalistic and restrictive structure imposed on NGOs to mobilise, they are still considered the best partners for the government in meeting the goals of state development agenda.

Published: April 2023

Recruiters need to develop successful recruitment strategies and techniques to attract new employees by examining the employment process from the job seeker’s point of view. This study aimed to examine the impact of additional information from an external source (Wall Street Journal) on the relationship between job previews used in recruitment and applicants' perceptions of corporate credibility. Results of an experimental study with 2 × 3 factorial design show that that while the presence of realistic job previews did not affect credibility ratings, additional information did moderate the relationship between job previews and perceived credibility. The findings suggest that providing consistent information in the job preview and external sources enhances perceived credibility. Practical implications and future research directions are discussed

Published: April 2023

This research aims to analyze and examine how the responsibility of a notary in the case of a notary's signing agents commits the crime of document forgery. Article 1 paragraph (1) of Notary Office Law states that a Notary is a Public Official authorized to do authentic deeds and has other authorities as referred to in this Law or based on other laws. The notaries get authority attribution from the state through the Law on Notary Positions. This authority is attached to the position of a notary. In conducting these duties and positions, a Notary is generally assisted by Notary signing agents. In this research, Normative Law is used because it tries to find the location of coherence, namely legal rules and legal norms. Notary workers are only assistants in their work, and the responsibility for authentic deeds remains to the Notary. When the Notary signing agents commit document forgery, resulting in defects in the authentic deed, it is possible that Notary must hold responsible for this. The forgery of letters can occur due to fake contents of the letter or fake authority and contents of authority in the letter. The forms of Notary Criminal Liability, if it is proven that the notary worker committed the crime of forging letters, is a crime of participation in the crime of forging letters because the Notary is considered negligent in conducting his duties and position.
THE RATIO LEGIS LIABILITIES AND REPUDIATION RIGHTS OF LAND DEED OFFICERS BASED ON CRIMINAL CODE PERSPECTIVES
Authors: Fachria  , Prawesthi Wahyu
Published: April 2023

Land deed officers have existed as public servants for less time than the notary institution, which extends back more than three centuries. If we take a look at the Basic Agrarian Law included in Law No. 5/1960, we can see that it does not specify the specific responsibilities of Land Deed Officers while creating land deeds. The objective of this research is to analyze a comprehensive overview of the professional practice of land deed officials, who assume that the obligation to register land is upheld in addition to elevating the status of land from conventional rights, in which evidence of ownership is indicated by Petok D, Girik, or Letter C, as well as legal actions related to the acquisition, transfer, and deletion. The method employed in this research is a normative juridical method, and it includes the using legislation, conceptual, historical, and systems approaches as well as literature or law found in books. When land deed officers are requested to testify in civil proceedings, particularly in criminal cases, the repudiation rights of land deed officers that have been established in this legislation and regulation have various problems in their implementation. However, it should be remembered that repudiation rights are "rights" not obligations. Deed of land deed officers who contain legal defects either due to land deed officers' mistakes, negligence, or due to the intention of the land deed officers themselves, the land deed officers must be able to provide accountability both morally and legally.

Meditation-related challenges can provoke existential concerns that make unexplored relationships between religious and scientific worldviews more important and explicit for Western Buddhist meditators, who may turn to both religion and science for making sense of these challenges. Interviews with 68 meditators and 33 meditation experts were analyzed to examine how meditators and meditation teachers understand the roles of, and relationships between, scientific and religious worldviews in the context of meditation-related challenges. Observed themes included: conflict between science and religion, compatibility between science and religion, nested relationships between science and religion, science and religion as discrete domains, and complementarity between science and religion. These themes suggest an expansion of existing understandings of the relationships between religion and science as they apply to Buddhist meditators, especially in the context of meditation-related challenges. The variety of relationships between religion and science, their existential relevance for meditators, and their interaction with responses to meditation-related challenges suggest that varied relationships between religious and scientific worldviews are important considerations in the scientific study of contemplative practices. Nuanced understandings of how religion and science relate may also benefit practitioners, experts, and their communities when addressing meditation-related challenges.

Çalışmanın amacı, örgütsel öğrenme yeteneğinin, teknolojik inovasyon yeteneği ve firma performansı arasındaki ilişkide aracılık rolünün olup olmadığını tespit etmektir. Yapılan literatür incelemesi sonucunda, KOBİ firmaları üzerindeki örgütsel öğrenme yeteneği ve firma performansı arasındaki dolaylı ilişki üzerine yapılan çalışmaların sınırlı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu nedenle, teknolojik inovasyon yeteneğinin firma performansı üzerindeki etkisinde örgütsel öğrenme yeteneğinin aracılık rolü İzmir bölgesindeki KOBİ firmaları üzerinde incelenmiştir. Araştırma verileri, üretim sanayi alt sektöründeki makine ve metal ürünleri meslek grubunda yer alan küçük ve orta ölçekli 127 firma sahibi ve departman yöneticisine internet üzerinden yapılan anket sonucunda elde edilmiştir. Veri analizinde kademeli olarak SPSS 22 ve AMOS programlarından yararlanılmış ve elde edilen veriler faktör analizi, korelasyon analizleri yardımıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma örnekleminden elde edilen bulgularda; örgütsel öğrenme yeteneğinin teknolojik inovasyon yeteneği ve firma performansı arasındaki ilişkide aracılık rolü olmadığı tespit edilmiştir.

Background: Despite the high acceptability of the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) procedure in the treatment of urinary stones at all ages, it is necessary to use a variety of analgesic drugs during the procedure, especially among children. Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine-ketamine (DK) and midazolam-ketamine (MK) compounds in the sedation of children (2-6 years old) undergoing ESWL. Methods: This randomized, double-blind clinical trial was performed on children aged 2 to 6 years with renal stones undergoing ESWL. The participants were randomly assigned to the DK and MK regimen groups (dexmedetomidine, 0.05 mcg/kg within 10 minutes infusion; midazolam, 0.05 mg/kg within 3 minutes infusion; ketamine, 0.5 mg/kg bolus injection). The patients were assessed with respect to sedation degree, post-procedure hemodynamic status, recovery time and awakening, and operator satisfaction. Results: Recovery time was significantly shorter in the DK group than in the MK group. Also, the DK regimen was more analgesic than the MK regimen; therefore, the need to repeat ketamine administration was less. There was no difference between the 2 methods in terms of cooperation at the time of separation of children from their parents, patient cooperation during the procedure, average verbal response time and average cooperation time after entering recovery, and operator satisfaction with the operation. No side effects were observed in the 2 groups. Conclusions: Ketamine with dexmedetomidine is associated with greater analgesia and shorter recovery time; however, sedation time was longer (insignificant) in ketamine with midazolam than in ketamine with dexmedetomidine. Thus, ketamine with dexmedetomidine is more preferred.

This study is intended to provide an overview of a natural disaster that significantly affects human security, especially in Malaysia. Furthermore, it enhances the understanding of natural disaster determinant factors and improves the knowledge about the risk, vulnerability, and consequences of a natural disaster. Despite the complexity of human security, this conceptual study can provide the platform for the Malaysian Government to assess the implication of natural disasters and protect human security. Therefore, it is crucial in handling human needs. Such approaches require well-coordinated and quick responses from government and non-government agencies. Furthermore, safety measures or precautions should be pre-planned for human security before the disaster hits.

The study on gender has always been an important research area in the field of popular music studies. While most studies focus on the content analysis of the popular music, there is still a need to research on listener’s perception of popular music lyrics. This study examined 30 listener’s perception on sexist words in selected 20 Malaysian hip hop lyrics. A total of 13 sexist words were analysed using text analysis. To further facilitate the data, the listeners were also given 9 random lyrics which contained sexist words and were asked to rank them from positive, negative or neutral. The data was then tabulated using Google Form. The results showed that listeners are aware of words that denote women to a lower level and yet the words are still used on women, perhaps due to dissatisfaction. The findings show that the respondents are merely going by the flow of what media puts forward which can be related back to the agenda set by the media

Encephalitis with unknown etiologies and an uncontrolled seizure pose challenges for effective management. This paper reports on the management of a case of depression and severe cognitive impairment post-acute encephalitis with uncontrolled seizures. All investigations were not significant except for one electroencephalogram finding and positive test for anti-GABA B receptor. Improvement was evident following pharmacological treatment, family sessions and environmental stimulation during the process of identification. Multimodal intervention during the post-acute encephalitis improved depression and quality of life.
