Published: October 2022

The Malaysian government has introduced the replanting assistance scheme under the National Key Economic Areas (NKEA) program to accelerate the oil palm replanting activities among smallholders. This program intends to accelerate the ongoing replanting efforts by smallholders to replace their low-yield and old oil palm trees with new and high-yielding oil palm seedlings. However, their participation in the scheme is low. Therefore, this study is conducted to determine the factors that affect independent oil palm smallholders’ decisions to participate in the replanting assistance scheme. Interview administrated questionnaires are employed to 375 respondents among the recipients of the replanting assistance scheme. The significant factors that affect smallholders’ decisions are the Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) selling price, influence from family members or business peers and long-term investment choice. This study also describes the cross-tabulation of respondents’ age and their employment status against these factors. This research is expected to help policymakers and the government realign the timing to introduce the replanting scheme at the right time for the right target groups of oil palm smallholders.

Kemahiran menulis merupakan salah satu kemahiran berbahasa yang wajib dipelajari oleh semua murid dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Cina di Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC). Pemupukan kebolehan menghasilkan penulisan yang baik dalam kalangan murid sekolah rendah adalah amat penting kepada peningkatan literasi bahasa dan keupayaan pembelajaran. Namun demikian, kemahiran menulis paling sukar dipelajari dan dikuasai oleh murid sekolah rendah kerana melibatkan tahap literasi dan proses kognisi yang tinggi dan kompleks. Dalam usaha pembaharuan Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (Semakan 2017), merangsang minat dan keupayaan murid dalam penulisan karangan telah menjadi tumpuan para guru Bahasa Cina. Melalui penggunaan peta alir, murid dapat mengembangkan idea penulisan, membina struktur penulisan dengan menyeluruh, serta menguasai kemahiran menghasilkan penulisan dengan cekap. Berdasarkan ini, kerangka penggunaan peta alir secara praktikal dalam pembelajaran penulisan karangan naratif Bahasa Cina bagi murid Tahap II dicadangkan dalam kajian ini agar dapat menggalakkan murid belajar penulisan dengan lebih seronok, inovatif dan bermakna. Melalui kerangka penggunaan peta alir yang dicadangkan, penggunaan peta alir diintegrasikan dalam amalan pedagogi yang sejajar dengan pembelajaran abad ke-21. Kerangka ini juga memberi pencerahan Teori Konstruktivisme Sosial Vygotsky (1978) dan kaedah asas penggunaan peta alir dalam pembelajaran penulisan karangan naratif Bahasa Cina di SJKC. Dengan itu, kajian ini dipercayai mampu memberi implikasi yang bernilai kepada para guru yang ingin menambah baik kaedah pengajaran mereka.

Berom Exocentric Compounds: A Structural and Semantic Analysis of the N-V Compounds
Authors: Marcus Pam Bitrus , Yap Teng Teng
Published: October 2022

In this study, we examine exocentric compounds in Berom; a minority Niger-Congo language that is spoken in parts of central Nigeria and describe the structural and semantic properties of N-V compounds. Basically, the study is designed to achieve three aims: to contribute to the documentation of Berom, to provide the structural classification of exocentric compounds in the language and to provide the semantics of N-V compounds. Contrary to the nominalization process in defining the lexical class of compounds in languages, we show that in Berom compounding, the verbal and adjectival compounds are also attested. Based on a data set of 200 compound words that were previously drawn from Bere Naha (a newsletter publication in Berom), we propose three categories of exocentric compounds in Berom: Nominal Compounds [NC] and Verbal Compounds [VC] and Adjectival compounds and present the structure of each category by showing the class of their constituents. We show that Berom, N-V compounds have a nominal classification that are interpreted as agentive or locative nouns. We conclude that the meaning of Berom N-V compounds may not be solely determined by the sheer interpretation of the constituents of the compound.

Published: October 2022

One of the first critical recommendations made by the Malaysian government as part of the COVID-19 prevention measures was social distancing, also known as physical distancing. It has thus become necessary to determine to what extent this measure has successfully prevented the spread of the virus. However, the public has mixed feelings about this topic, so a study is required to understand the present situation. This study aims to assess the public's understanding, attitude, and practice regarding social distancing, particularly during the early stages of the Movement Control Order (MCO). An online survey was conducted from 19 June to 19 July 2020. The study also applied non-probability sampling, an unrestricted, self-selected survey, and the adopted snowballing method. The study concluded that the general public has a high knowledge, practice, and a positive attitude toward physical distancing. In conclusion, human nature is influenced by their understanding, attitudes, perceptions, and intentions to comply with the new practice.

Authors: Kalang Lizalin , Eboy Oliver Valentine , Karim Haryati Abdul
Published: October 2022

Kini, Coronavirus 2019 (COVID19) merupakan pandemik yang telah menjadi ancaman kesihatan awam di seluruh dunia. Kota Kinabalu merupakan antara daerah di Sabah yang mencatatkan jumlah kes positif COVID19 yang tertinggi pada peringkat awal wabak tersebut menular. Walaupun kerajaan telah mengumumkan arahan Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) namun ada segelintir penduduk yang tidak mematuhi peraturan tersebut. Hal ini sedikit sebanyak telah mempengaruhi peningkatan kes positif COVID19 di Sabah khususnya di daerah Kota Kinabalu. Pemantauan terhadap individu yang melanggar arahan PKP ini sukar dilakukan kerana kekurangan tenaga kerja dan faktor geografi juga sebagai penghalang untuk pihak berkuasa bergerak membuat rondaan. Selain itu, kekurangan penggunaan teknologi seperti Sistem Maklumat Geografi (GIS) menjadi salah satu faktor penguatkuasaan tidak dapat dilakukan dengan baik. Oleh itu, kajian ini adalah untuk mengenal pasti faktor utama pelakuan penduduk yang menyumbang kepada sebaran wabak di Kota Kinabalu menggunakan analisis Analisis Komponen Utama (PCA) dan seterusnya memetakan hasil tersebut menggunakan GIS. Kajian ini menggunakan data sedia ada melibatkan seramai 100 orang responden di daerah Kota Kinabalu dan hanya melibatkan zon yang mencatatkan kes positif COVID19 sahaja. Data yang terlibat terdiri daripada data pelakuan, lokasi faktor dan lokasi responden. Analisis yang digunakan dalam kajian ini ialah analisis PCA dan kaedah pengkelasan menggunakan GIS. Hasil kajian ini merupakan peta pelakuan penduduk di daerah Kota Kinabalu yang mempengaruhi sebaran wabak COVID19. Hasil ini dapat membantu pihak yang bertanggungjawab mengenal pasti zon di daerah Kota Kinabalu yang berpotensi mempunyai risiko tinggi jangkitan COVID19.
Isu-Isu Aktual Dalam Al-Qur’an: Ham Dalam Perspektif Al –Quran
Authors: Andy Muhammad Ilham Septian  , Fatimah Khusnul
Published: October 2022

It was the confusion of secular human rights that prompted Muslim thinkers who joined European Islamic organizations to declare The Universal Islamic Declaration of Human Rights (UIDHR), at the 1980 International Islamic Conference in Paris. However, the declaration of Islamic human rights, which is very similar to secular human rights, also fails at the implementation level. If we return to the Qur'an and hadith, especially the Medina constitution in the context of human rights, there are many verses of the Qur'an which, without going through interpretation, are very in favor of human rights. Human rights principles in the Qur'an can be described in three terms, namely al-istiqrar, namely the right to live on earth until death picks up, al-istimta', namely the right to explore the carrying capacity of life and al-karamah, namely honor. which is identical to each individual but has social implications, because self-respect can only work if there are other people who respect one's human dignity, then al-karamah gives birth to the right of equality.

Published: October 2022

The Qur'an is the main source of Islamic teachings and a way of life for every Muslim. The Qur'an not only contains instructions about the relationship between humans and their gods, but also regulates human relations with each other, as well as humans with the natural environment. To understand the teachings of Islam perfectly, it is necessary to understand the contents of the Qur'an and practice it in daily life seriously and consistently. In this case, we will discuss the arguments about slander and backbiting related to communication. Communication is conveying messages from one person to another as is the case with slander and backbiting, but these 2 things are more about telling, conveying information with something negative or wrong which is an act that is hated by Allah SWT. slander and backbiting are often limited to what is meant by slander and backbiting and have not led to the purpose of that meaning. Besides being descriptive, in its real meaning it is prescriptive (providing provisions and rules) and always aims for the good of mankind, so it is necessary to know and understand what is meant by slander and backbiting.

Influence of Porosity on the Free Vibration Response of Sandwich Functionally Graded Porous Beams
Authors: AL-ITBI Sura Kareem , NOORI Ahmad Reshad
Published: October 2022

Functionally graded materials are composite materials used to build a variety of structures. These structures are used in ships industries, marine, automotive, high building structures, energy engineering applications, and many more. The porosity made in these materials may negatively affect some behavior aspects like stiffness, and strength, but it may provide superior performance in other fields like vibration reduction, thermal isolation, energy absorption, and others. In this paper, we will discuss the effect of porosity on the natural frequencies for functionally graded porous (FGP) sandwich beams. The mechanical properties of the FGP sandwich beams are changing with the porosity in the thickness direction. The free vibration of the beams is examined with the effect of porosity. The analysis is carried out for four different beam supporting types (hinged – hinged, fixed – fixed, fixed – free, fixed – hinged). Various porosity ratios are considered with a range from (0.1 – 0.9). Forty–four samples are analyzed for each type of core material distribution which is the symmetric material constitutive relationships (SMCR) and uniform core material. The results gained from the analysis show that the porosity constant has a significant effect on the natural frequencies of the FGP sandwich beams.

Authors: Kavishe Faith F. , Chimwamurombe Percy , Kennedy Jeya
Published: October 2022

The current study was carried out to survey if genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are present in feeds and foods found in local supermarkets in Namibia. Little is known of the presence and prevalence of GMOs in the local supermarkets or information available on the labelling provided on some. The aim was to prove the absence or existence of GMOs in the foods and feeds by means of molecular extraction and screening procedures. Samples purposefully selected were nine (6 food and 3 chicken feed samples). DNA was extracted from them, and they were screened by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the presence of the Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter and the terminator of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Ti plasmid nopaline synthase gene (NOS) that are commonly found in transgene constructs. Screening results indicated that GMOs were present in the 3 chicken feed samples, absent in 1 food sample, present in 3 food samples and the other 2 food samples’ results were inconclusive. These results and survey information reveal the extent of GMOs in the food chain in supermarkets in Namibia and highlight the need for regulatory bodies in the food and feed industry to protect consumers from being misled by absence of properly informative labels on genetic modifications.
Mentoring Youth for Mission in the Twenty-first (21st) Century: A Case Study of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Nigeria
Authors: ISHAYA Istifanus
Published: October 2022

The youth of the present generation are faced with issues that are beyond their control. These issues are as a result of the changing world. The present world of technology, the social media, and busy family life have created a gap between children and their parents, thereby making it difficult for the two parties to relate mutually. Incidentally, the church is not immune to the challenges bedeviling the contemporary world. One of the ways by which the church is negatively affected is in the aspect of mentoring. From the Apostles’ days, mentoring process has been an effective way of helping and developing young Christians. However, the gap created between the older members and the young people in the Church through the advance in technology and human communication is somewhat rendering mentoring of little or no effect for achievement of mission goals in the 21st century. To ensure the trend does not hinder this generation from transmitting the apostolic values, which the preceding generations earnestly fought to sustain and carefully handed down to the succeeding generations, to those coming behind them, particularly in the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Nigeria, something drastic must be done. It is against this backdrop this paper sets out to review the concept of mentoring in Christendom in the 21st Century from the perspective of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Nigeria. It therefore evaluates the extent the prevalent relationship realities between the older individuals and the youth have hindered productive mentoring processes and discouraged sustainable youth development in the church.
VIOLÊNCIA, TRAUMA SOCIAL E SAÚDE MENTAL EM CRIANÇAS E ADOLESCENTES: UMA ANÁLISE DO IMPACTO DO TERRORISMO EM CABO DELGADO, MOÇAMBIQUE
Authors: Hermenegildo Correia Correia
Published: October 2022

O artigo discute sobre violência, trauma social e saúde mental em crianças e adolescentes, tomando como foco o terrorismo em Cabo Delgado, região norte de Moçambique e tem como objetivo central, analisar as consequências em função dos efeitos do terrorismo, com vista a prevenção e promoção da saúde mental. A abordagem é qualitativa, assente na revisão bibliográfica de literaturas do tema em estudo. As fontes de investigação são o Google Académico; Libgen; Mendeley Reference Maneger e Scielo. Os cenários de violência, agressões, morte, luto e destruição, vivenciados pelas crianças e adolescentes, decorrentes do terrorismo, podem desencadear problemas psicopatológicos de várias ordens, tais como trauma, depressão, angústia, transtornos de pânico e isso pode influenciar o comportamento deste grupo específico para toda a vida. Uma nota importante é que é necessário observar que traumas graves contínuos podem levar deficiência significativa na regulação de emoções e comportamento e podem ter um impacto sobre como os sobreviventes percebem a si mesmos e sua visão de mundo (Carll, 2007). Outro dado relevante é de que isso significa que a visão e percepção do transtorno pós-traumático precisa ser redefinido em função da cultura e contexto. Pode se concluir que são necessários primeiros socorros psicológicos no sentido de reduzir os efeitos psicopatológicos das crianças e adolescentes. Outrossim, há necessidade de haver intervenções que precisam levar em consideração a cultura e o contexto, porque o que pode ser considerado patológico, pode variar amplamente entre as culturas.

La antropología filosófica en busca de su definición. Aciertos y desaciertos
Authors: Penton Ibrahim Aimee
Published: October 2022

La aproximación kantiana al tema de la posibilidad de la existencia de una antropología filosófica como ontología fundamental del ser humano, deja abierta la brecha que le permite a Max Scheler construir las bases epistemológicas de la disciplina. Teniendo en cuenta el camino recorrido por Kant se construye una disciplina capaz de comprender dónde radica la diversidad de las determinaciones de la esencia del hombre. Este artículo investiga las claves de esta discusión, a saber, la formulación de una antropología filosófica que sea capaz de explicar el fenómeno humano desde posturas fenomenológicas.
Entre la crítica, la crítica social y la organización de la vida humana. Una lectura entre miles
Authors: Fajardo Estrada DCs. Zoila MarÌa
Published: October 2022

Este ensayo pretende responder al interés de develar elementos de discernimiento al permitir entender, desde una mirada epistemológica, cómo la crítica social posibilita o entorpece la asimilación cognitiva de teorías. Dispuestas en arsenal en el repertorio asimilativo humano, las teorías se vuelcan hacia la memoria pública al insertarse como patrones de comprensión y actuar. Permiten guiar el accionar humano. En este proceso la crítica social actúa como elemento mediador de asimilación, a la vez que determina el grado de aprehensión del conocimiento a partir de la episteme que le es inherente. Semejante actuar cognitivo en tiempos tecnológicos como los que nos asisten, posibilita insertar verdades en coherencia cognitiva entre el universo virtual y el hacer físico cotidiano. Tal disposición de cosas convierte a la organización de la vida en instituciones establecidas sobre el primado de las normas, reglas y ritos, en recursos de establecimientos de orden no ajenos a la Crítica como diálogo de compensación de intereses, haceres y sentires en congruencia con los tiempos, las épocas y los avatares que a la organización humana impone la vida.
Hegel y la revolución
Authors: Leiva Rubio Gabriel
Published: October 2022

El objetivo de este ensayo es discutir la posibilidad de realización que tiene el concepto de revolución en el interior de la Filosofía del derecho hegeliana. Para ello, se toman antes en consideración algunas determinaciones que, sobre el concepto a tratar, realizan Kant y Arendt respectivamente. Habiendo clarificado algunos aspectos destacados del concepto a partir de Kant y Arendt, se pasa a analizar si es posible o no asumir las determinaciones que Hegel (y los autores antes mencionados) detecta en el concepto escogido a fin de precisar su posible incorporación en el movimiento dialéctico que describe al espíritu objetivo.
El Arte de la muerte del arte: el problema de la estética en la teoría hegeliana.
Authors: Miguel Parra Yoan
Published: October 2022

Innumerables estudios se han referido a la tesis hegeliana sobre el carácter pretérito del arte. En su mayoría desde una visión fatalista y en otros casos desde el sentido común de lo enunciado. En el presente escrito se intenta el abordaje de dicha tesis a partir de una comprensión analítica teniendo en cuenta el contexto hegeliano del pensamiento sistémico, así como el estudio de sus diferentes categorías generando al mismo tiempo un motivo para el esclarecimiento de determinados conceptos específicos de la filosofía del arte plasmada en las Lecciones sobre la estética. Como se verá, el conjunto de este pensar estético se halla estrechamente vinculado a una teoría de la libertad y la reflexividad, lo cual arrojará otras luces acerca del problema de la muerte del arte y las teorías y producciones sobre el mismo que vinieron después de Hegel.
