The Responses of Selected Malaysian Trade Publishing Companies Towards Technological Development
Authors: Abdullah Fadli , Mustafa Siti Ezaleila
Published: September 2021

In today’s digital age, content is no longer tied to a specific media format as it can come in any form, including in the digital format that can be distributed online. In the context of the content for book, since approximately 500 years ago, the printed book, which consists of the paper, print, binding, and glue, has been a prominent medium for content delivery. However, as digital technology advances, e-book has emerged along with printed book as an alternative to readers in the market. In some developed countries, the trend of e-book reading and buying have increased noticeably. However, looking at the broader context of the impact, e-book is only among the many aspects that have affected the industry. As argued by scholars, the end-product of the book industry is not the only aspect being affected, instead, the whole book creation process is experiencing changes. In order to have a better understanding of these issues, this study attempts to explore the current condition of Malaysian book publishing industry by analysing the responses of selected local trade publishing companies towards technological development in their pursuit of organizational success. In doing so, a case study of six local trade publishing companies comprises of large, small and medium, and government-funded publishers is conducted. From the case studies analysis, it is evident that these companies have responded vigorously to technological developments in their pursuit of organizational success. The finding shows that they are adopting the multi-platform strategy in almost every aspect of their business practices, especially in marketing and distributing of their content. In marketing, the use of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube have help them in promoting their books. Meanwhile, for the distribution of books, the emergence of online channels such as e-commerce, as well as mobile application, WhatsApp, have now opened up an opportunity for the publishers to enhance their sales. The Internet, computer technology, and social media are also becoming rather important in their book publishing practices.

Authors: Al Ibrahim Daleen Jehad , Shi Yibin
Published: September 2021

The research discussed how the Islamic State uses the media to spread their propaganda especially the exploitation of modern communication technology. Then we examined an essential aspect of how the mainstream media deal with ISIS media. We also discussed how we could respond to the narrative of the Islamic State in the era of new media technology. We concluded that ISIS relies on all media outlets from the mainstream media to digital platforms and social media (Facebook and Twitter...); to reach public supporters and opponents for its barbarous ideas. However, mainstream media and Social networks have taken norms against terrorist and extremist groups; and have defined rules of employment that prohibit the use of their services to promote terrorist activities.
The Beginnings of European Filmmaking in Siam
Authors: Klemm Alexander Johannes
Published: September 2021

In 1908 the Danish company Nordisk Film sent cinematographer Ludvig Lippert on a journey to the East. His itinerary included Siam, where he shot impressions of Bangkok and the celebration of the 40-year jubilee of the reign of King Chulalongkorn. European photographers had been coming to Siam since the 1860s, documenting people, places, and culture, but Lippert’s visit marked the first time that a European filmmaker came to Siam on a mission to make scenic films, commonly known as ‘scenics’, meant for distribution in Europe. Between 1910 and 1913 the French company Pathé Frères also produced its first scenics in Siam. Thus, before the outbreak of World War I, film productions by Nordisk Film and Pathé Frères constituted the first cinematic representations of Siam. Most of these scenics have been lost because of the brittleness of early celluloid and the turmoil of history. As a consequence, there no in-depth academic discussion about them has taken place. This paper seeks to close this research gap. By way of contextualizing the Nordisk Film and Pathé Frères productions, outlining relevant film-historic circumstances, and drawing connections to 19th-century representations of Siam in photography, the paper offers insights into the beginnings of European filmmaking in Siam and makes an original contribution to the study of western portrayals of this Southeast Asian nation.

Authors: Islam Md Mohiul
Published: September 2021

Madam Fuli(1999) is an award winning creation of Shahidul Islam, the director of the film. It is one of the most remarkable films in Dhallywood, the Film Industry of Bangladesh, which won the National Film Award afterwards for its storyline and stunning acting by the protagonist’s (Fuli) cast Shimla. This film gave a jolt to the contemporary social systems of Bangladesh regarding our attitude towards the skin color of women and also towards our concept of beauty. Through the portrayal of various stage of Fuli’s life, the director, Shahidul Islam Khokon, who is the producer and the screen-play writer of this film, takes attempts to show what are the things and incidents a girl or a woman go through in the society in Bangladesh. By putting a tagline as ‘Fight for Right’ the director wants to visualize the struggle of a woman in the society of Bangladesh. But somehow, this film actually encourages the same follies and vices of the social practices that it intends to resist. This article shows how Madam Fuli actually waters into the roots of the same old racist concept of beauty.

A dramatic change has been required on how the students are getting their education due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in Malaysia. Not only did the students have to maintain a social distance from their peers and family, but students also must adapt with online learning. Remote learning has become the norm to avoid the wide-reaching and transferable contagious disease. The sudden outbreak disrupted the education system worldwide and forced educators to switch to online mode of teaching. Some students acknowledge and are ready for online learning. However, some are reluctant to shift from traditional learning to online learning. There seem to be several methods where educators could help to make the virtual education experience more engaging and efficient. Therefore, several articles on enhancing online learning and teaching were summarized. Most of the existing research suggests that the adaptation of distance learning was a brilliant choice. Nevertheless, study showed that some students tend to detest online learning due to personal and technological difficulty issues. Besides, distance learning has also been found to be related to psychological impact such as stress and anxiety. Moreover, the existing research discovered that online learning could give psychological impacts in correlation with the challenging learning process.

Opening of new election polling stations: the effect on turnout and diaspora voting patterns
Authors:   Center for International Studies, Reire Gunda
Published: September 2021

Opening of additional polling stations in foreign countries has been brought forward as a method to raise the turnout of diaspora voters in Latvian parliamentary election, and the number of polling stations abroad during last four elections has almost doubled. In this article, the author tests the argument that the increase in the sheer number of polling stations and the expansion of territorial coverage is an election parameter in foreign countries with the potential to raise the election turnout. In sharp contrast to a popular argument and the academic debate, the results of the Latvian data analysis show that opening of new polling stations did not meet the intended goal and cannot be regarded as an effective method for raising the diaspora voter turnout; the means must be sought in other factors of election organisation and voter behaviour. To compare data of voter behaviour in foreign countries in four separate parliamentary elections and to determine tendencies in diaspora voting patterns, the deviation of the elections outcome in foreign countries from the general national results are analysed by the help of calculation model that uses the Voting Outcome Coefficient. The article outlines that the third and fourth wave of emigration have introduced a new tendency of extreme stratification in the results between the Latvian Association of Regions (2014), KPV LV (2018) and the rest of the political parties. The article also analyses the deviation of the elections outcome in the new polling stations from the vote share in particular foreign countries by the help of Polling Station Coefficient, and concludes that in the 13th Saeima election, all newly opened polling stations were beneficial for KPV LV as results in all of them were proportionally even better than the list’s overall results in a particular country.

Published: September 2021

Seasonal forecasting gained ground in the last decades by building up knowledge on the processes staying behind the climate variability at the seasonal time scale, constructing ever more sophisticated general circulation models and ensemble prediction systems and thus enhancing forecast skill. The seasonal forecast is a climate forecast and is therefore probabilistic in nature. The predictability of the atmospheric circulation at the seasonal scale is limited in the middle latitudes, where Europe and Bulgaria are situated, by its chaotic nature. The current standard is to give forecast of the potential anomalies of the mean seasonal temperature and the seasonal amount of precipitation. The National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology of Bulgaria has been issuing operationally seasonal forecast for the country since 2005. The goal of this work is to discuss the seasonal forecast for the last agricultural year 2019-2020. The year was characterized by its drought conditions especially in Eastern Bulgaria. This work would show the extent to which it was successfully predicted and how the seasonal forecast could have been used for decision making. The use of agrometeorological indices for the analysis of the skill of the seasonal forecast has been shown.
Estimation of Al/Cu laser weld penetration in photodiode signals using deep neural network classification
Authors: Lee Kidong , Kang Sanghoon , Kang Minjung , Yi Sung , Kim Cheolhee
Published: September 2021

In Al/Cu overlap laser welding joints for electric vehicle batteries, power and load are transmitted through the connection between the upper and lower sheets. As a thin sheet is placed on the upper part of the overlap joint, the laser processing parameters should be precisely adjusted to avoid weld defects such as incomplete penetration into the lower part or excessive upper sheet melting. In this work, a support vector machine and two deep neural networks (i.e., a fully connected neural network and a convolutional neural network) were used to classify penetration as unsatisfactory, transient, or good in photodiode signals. A bandpass filter was applied to the photodiode signals to transmit only the Cu emission wavelength. For modeling, 405 datapoints were collected, and 283, 61, and 61 datapoints were used for training, validation, and testing of the models, respectively. The machine learning models predicted the penetration mode every 50 ms, and the test results showed a high classification performance, exceeding 90% accuracy. The convolutional neural network was verified experimentally by gradually increasing the laser output power, thus demonstrating the feasibility and applicability of neural network classification to estimate Al/Cu laser weld penetration.

Authors: Bo-Ra Kang  , Jeong-Weon Lee
Published: September 2021

Purpose: This purpose of the study was to identify the effects of computer worktable heights on musculoskeletal changes in the neck and upper extremities and postural alignment in patients with C6 and T6 level spinal cord injuries. Materials and Methods: The participants in the present study were patients diagnosed with AIS A. The level of the worktable was set 5 cm below the elbow, at elbow level, and 5 cm above elbow level. Subjective musculoskeletal discomfort (Borg-RPE) was measured at the end of the experiment. To compare the side posture for the wheelchair axle, patients with C6 and the T6 injuries were selected to measure the angle of the centerline for the axle, the tip of the chin, and the postural change for the tragus of the ear. Results: First, in the patient with C6 injuries, the Borg-RPE scores decreased when the worktable height was 5 cm above the elbow, whereas, in the patient with T6 injuries, the Borg-RPE scores decreased when the worktable height was decreased. Second, in the patient with C6 injuries, the chin tip and tragus of the ear were close to the center of the wheelchair when the height of the worktable was 5 cm above the elbow in the lateral position. In the patient with T6 injuries, there was no difference in lateral posture according to the height of the worktable. Conclusion: To reduce musculoskeletal system discomfort in patients during video display terminal (VDT) work, it is necessary to set the worktable height higher than the elbow standard for patients with C6 injuries and lower than elbow height for patients with T6 injuries. In the case of posture change, in the patient with C6 injuries, the higher the worktable height, the more the neck and head changed from forward flexion to a neutral posture.

Background: Neonatal pain responses have been ignored for long, in spite of many pharmacological and non- pharmacological proven methods. Non pharmacological measures like breast feeding, non- nutritive sucking or glucose solutions are easily available, affordable and readily acceptable methods. Methods: 190 babies were compared for their responses to both intravenous pre discharge blood sampling and birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine. They were randomly divided into three groups - expressed breast milk (64 babies), 2ml 10% dextrose solution via syringe (63 babies), and non- nutritive sucking with 25% dextrose (63 babies). The response to each procedure was recorded in terms of cry duration and using NIPS scale. Kruskal Wallis test, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks test, Mann Whitney U test, ANOVA were used find the association between quantitative variables whereas McNemar test, McNemar-Bowker test and Chi-square test were used for qualitative variables. Results: The baseline demographic data of all the groups were comparable. The NIPS scores were reduced significantly in all the 3 groups in both the procedures. Babies on non-nutritive sucking with dextrose had the least scores, followed by babies on dextrose and finally those on expressed breast milk for both the procedures. All the 3 groups had significant variations in HR and SPO2 from baseline and at 3rd min, the variations were reducing with group 3 showing the maximum potential for quick stabilisation in both the procedures. The cry duration was significantly lower in group 3 in both the invasive procedures. Conclusion: Neonatal pain responses were least among the neonates provided with non- nutritive sucking with 25% dextrose during the intra-venous procedure and intra-muscular procedure. Non- nutritive sucking with 25% dextrose can be recommended as effective, reliable and useful method for decreasing the pain responses during the procedures.

The pandemic generated by COVID-19 has brought major challenges to higher education in a globalized manner, causing an abrupt break from face-to-face activities to virtual/remote processes, ordering changes in both the pedagogical and structural aspects. The courses in the health area needed an extra reorganization, as it involves practical activities, developed in health environments, which were not feasible in this new moment. A concern that moved professors was, how to advance the training process in the face of the new scenario, aiming at the completion of the course in a viable time, with quality and in a safe way? This article describes the trajectory of the construction and implementation of a proposal that the nursing course at the State University of Mato Grosso do Sul has been delineating/running in a dialogic perspective with the course's professors and students.

Influencia de los aspectos demográficos en la complejidad tecnológica humana
Authors: Moreno Marín Álvaro
Published: September 2021

El distanciamiento temporal entre la aparición de Homo sapiens y la consolidación de los rasgos conductualmente modernos entre las poblaciones humanas plantea el problema de cuál es el factor, o factores, que explican dicha consolidación en un momento particular de nuestra historia: la transición entre EPM/PM y EPS/PS. En este artículo se analizan varias de las propuestas que han tratado de identificar la causa de este cambio cultural, en especial las que relacionan el grado de complejidad tecnológico alcanzado por una población con sus características demográficas.
A Narrative review of Myths on Neonatal and Natal Teeth in Nigeria
Authors: Ogbeide Mike Eghosa
Published: September 2021

Myths associated with neonatal and natal teeth (NNT) differ across different countries and cultures, ranging from beliefs of a magnificent future at one end, to that of serious misfortune at the opposite end. In Nigeria, the beliefs reported on NNT have been mostly negative and erroneous, with consequential effects of varying degrees ranging from anxiety by the affected child‘s mother and other members of the family to infanticide contemplation. The beliefs surrounding NNT, oftentimes, are handed down from generation to generation, and they are held in high esteem in many families. These erroneous beliefs need to be dispelled and the accurate information regarding NNT need to be passed to the people for public health benefits.
Prevalence of hypertension and diabetes in the population of Kosovo
Authors: Sopjani Idriz , Elezi Shpend
Published: September 2021

Objectives

To observe the prevalence of arterial pressure and glycemia in Kosovo and to provide free screening service through health promotion.

Methods

This prospective study was conducted over a 3-year period, during 2017–2019. All data were collected by AAB College staff in 11 Kosovo cities prior to a random sample with 7254 observations. Data included demographic information as well as blood pressure and glycemic level measurements.

Results

The overall prevalence of arterial pressure was registered at 27.6% and diabetes mellitus at 9.2%. Arterial pressure in females had a tendency to increase with age (r = 0.3552, P < 0.001), as well as the glycemic index (r = 0.1997, P < 0.001). Nevertheless, age had a stronger impact on males than in females, with regard to higher arterial pressure in the year 2017 (P < 0.001). In the following years, 2018 and 2019, the ratio had reversed. Glycemia had strong correlation with systolic arterial pressure value (P < 0.001). For a 1 mmol/L increase in glycemia, the diastolic value increased by 0.19 mmHg on average.

Conclusions

This study concluded that at younger ages the values of arterial pressure and glycemia remain within the commonly observed range, but over the years the probability for higher blood pressure or glicemia increases. Through continuous control of arterial pressure and glycemia at an early age, it is possible to identify abnormal diagnostics, in order to address them in time. Educational initiatives and screenings should take place in order to increase awareness of the citizens for checking themselves regularly.

Сковороди та в контексті української культури; виявлено його конотації. Встановлено, що слово-денотат «свобода» й конотації до нього («рівна нерівність», «щастя», «сродна праця», «вольность», «Богдан-герой», «веселіє духа», «глибоке серце», «світ ловив мене та не спіймав» та інші) мають ментально-світоглядну специфіку, оскільки концептуалізують вчення Г. Сковороди про людину та сенс її життя.
TO THE QUESTION OF LITERARY INFLUENCES ON VASYL’ STUS’ POETIC CREATIVITY
Authors: SYRKO Iryna
Published: September 2021

This article is aimed at studying the intertextual conn ections of Vasyl’ Stus, a key fi gure for contemporary cultural identity, with great Ukrainian poets and writers. It has been confi rmed that among those literary men, whom Stus considered important in his formation as a poet, Taras Shevchenko aroused his interest in a «privileged» way. At the same time, it has been assumed that literary infl uence might not be the main argument in choosing themes and images. It has been proved that a detailed study of the possible infl uence upon Stus would help better understand his way of thinking and his poetry.

Published: September 2021

У статті висвітлено еволюцію семантики концепту нація як одного із вузлових компонентів політичної сфери. Шляхом когнітивно-дискурсного підходу окреслено смислове наповнення досліджуваного конце пту у нерозривному зв’язку з історичним становленням української політичної думки. Власне лінгвокогнітологічний аналіз, опертий на міждисциплінарний фактичний матеріал, уможливив простежити багатогранність і динамічність концеп туального поняття, його закономірну семантичну аморфність, зумовлену перманентним процесом націєтворення.
