CONSUMER PROTECTION IN ELECTRONIC CONTRACTS: THE CASE OF INDONESIA
Authors: Agustin Erni , Kurniawan Faizal 
Published: June 2018

This paper aims to provide insights into the consumer protection in e-commerce in Indonesian context. In 2015, ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) which includes Indonesia as a member, was established for a regional economic integration by reducing the transactions costs of trade, improving trade and business facilities, as well as enhancing the competitiveness of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises sector. AEC is expected to promote electronic transactions. Even though Indonesia has the Law Number 8 Year 1999 on Consumer Protection, this law does not regulate specifically on electronic transactions. In response to this limitation, Indonesia has issued the Law Number 11 Year 2008 on Information and Electronic Transactions and Government Regulation Number 82 Year 2012 on the Implementation of Systems and Electronic Transactions. This is followed by enactment of Law Number 7 Years 2014 on Trade, which regulates general domestic trade, foreign trade, border trade and commerce through the electronic system. The law aims to stem the flood of products imported into Indonesia so that the use of domestic products can be increased. This paper concludes that legislations which regulate consumer protection in electronic transactions are still inadequate thus Indonesia is not fully ready to deal with the consumer protection in e-commerce.

Published: June 2018

The present study is an attempt to test the effect of wide short story reading on the precision and difficulty of EFL students’ composition ability. The research was accomplished at Fan Bayan Language Institute in Ajabshir, Iran on advanced EFL students. The entire sample group of 30 learners exhibited a high amount of improvement in a composition ability pre-test, which had an experimental part and a control part. The experimental group of the study comprised three entire weeks of short story practicing before the final test. A composition skill post-test was administered for both the experimental and control groups of the study. The subjects’ compositions were graded according to precision and difficulty of the final test and a T-Test was applied to investigate the students’ improvement according to their grades. The outcomes of the research proved that long-time reading of such stories could empower students in the experimental group to apply and use many answer patterns in post-testing.

The political dispersion of Muslims in Malaysia has suffocated and challenged the status of the religion and its believers. This paper reviews the concept of dispersion according to the Sunnah of the prophet SAW with hope that it would help to establish the real meaning of the concept as stated in Hadith. The effects of disunity on society due to the political dispersion are also discussed. This paper reveals that dispersion among Muslims in the country occurs because of four factors: 1) the differences in the essence of religion; 2) the failure to hold on to the al-Quran and Sunnah in beliefs and practices; 3) the tendency to leave the obligated and commit the prohibited; and 4) the rebellion towards the government. The dispersion tarnishes the good image of religion, delays the Islamization process, affects the preaching to the non-Muslims and averts the economic growth of the Muslims.

PELARIAN VIETNAM : SATU ISU GLOBAL DALAM SEJARAH HUBUNGAN LUAR MALAYSIA<br>[VIETNAMESE REFUGEES : A GLOBAL ISSUE IN THE HISTORY OF MALAYSIA FOREIGN AFFAIRS]
Authors: Baharuddin Syahrul Alim , Mat Enh Azlizan 
Published: June 2018

This paper aims to provide insights into the issue related to Vietnamese refugees in Malaysia which became a global issue from 1975 to 1991. The study addresses major factors that contribute to the problem, and diplomatic relation between Malaysia and Vietnam that influences Malaysian government to assist in resolving the issue of Vietnamese refugees. Data were generated through the analysis of documents obtained from primer sources including reports from United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), official records from Malaysian government such as Official Statement of Parliament, and Report of Bidong Island Submission Ceremony to Terengganu Government as well as secondary sources (i.e. scholars’ studies on Vietnam). The findings suggest that the Vietnamese refugees issue occurred due to domestic factors that prompt the Vietnamese to flee to neighbouring countries in the region. In particular, political, economy and social factors are inter-related in disrupting the stability and peace of the country. The presence of refugees in Malaysia is a serious matter as it challenges sovereignty and national security of Malaysia.Keywords: refugees, Vietnam, Malaysia, global issue, factor, history.Cite as: Baharuddin, S.A & Mat Enh, A.

ADMINISTRATION OF ESTATES IN MALAYSIA: DETERMINANT OF FACTORS BEHIND THE DELAY IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE DECEASED’S ASSET
Authors: Nasrul Muhammad Amrullah , Mohd Salim Wan Noraini 
Published: June 2018

The distribution of the deceased’s estate depends on the smooth process of estate administration. Apart from the personal representative, the beneficiaries hold a significant role in the administration, not as recipients of the deceased’s estate but as participants in the estate administration process. Despite the clear laws governing the succession matters in Malaysia, issues of delay in distribution of estate continue to occur, being the result of unresolved disputes between the beneficiaries. As a result, there are over sixty billion ringgit worth of unclaimed estate in Malaysia as reported by various sources, indicating the seriousness of the matter. This paper addresses the problems of delay in the administration of the estates and analyzes its causes and implications. The lack of knowledge and the attitude of the beneficiaries has been identified as the key factors which lead to such problem. This paper is based primarily on the analysis of written sources namely conference papers, textbooks, statutes, case laws, journals and other library-based documents. The findings in this article show that there is a need for a cohesive approach to educate the beneficiaries of the law and to change their attitude in understanding their actual roles in the deceased’s estate administration.Keywords: Estate administration, asset distribution, beneficiaries, attitudes and lack of knowledgeCite as: Drs Nasrul, M.A., Mohd Salim, W.N.

Applying resilience thinking to ‘ordinary’ cities: A theoretical inquiry
Authors: Dessie Elizabeth 
Published: June 2018

Abstract
This paper assesses the prospective contribution of social-ecological resilience thinking in advancing a theory of ‘ordinary’ cities. Building on the hierarchical divide that continues to prescribe analyses and representations of cities in urban studies, the paper suggests that, while ideologically contentious, the conceptual configuration of resilience thinking, promoted essentially through notions of uncertainty, diversity and transformation, shows considerable potential for interdisciplinary research. While remaining cautious about its analytical thresholds, applying the framework as it emerges from its ecological niche suggests that resilience thinking can, alongside other concepts, play a part in creating an enabling environment for broadening the way communities, neighbourhoods and institutions that form and connect cities across the globe are understood, studied and represented in urban theory; allowing us to recognise all cities and their citizens as relatable and ‘ordinary’.
Urban food systems as vehicles for sustainability transitions
Authors: Olsson E. Gunilla Almered 
Published: June 2018

Abstract
Strategies and action plans for sustainable food provisioning and urban food security are in progress in many urban regions both in the global North and South. A number of urgent challenges need to be confronted such as increasing uncertainty and unpredictability related to stronger dependence on a global market for food import, ongoing political unrest and environmental conflicts, increasing resource scarcity and climate warming making food production hazardous. There is an increased vulnerability with respect to food security for human societies, both in developing and developed countries. The food security dimension of access to healthy food is related to equality and poverty and is relevant for cities in the North via the segregation challenges. The food system issue is well-suited for assessing sustainable development since food provisioning is both a multiscale and cross-sectorial issue and thus addresses more than the three dimensions of social, economic and environmental sustainability. How is the planning for sustainable food strategies in urban regions in Europe concordant with the United Nations Global Sustainable Development Goals and with the transition towards sustainable futures? This paper deliberates on using the food system issues for sustainability transition, drawing on the forthcoming 2018 IPBES (Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services) work on pathways for sustainable futures and a recent survey of existing urban food system strategies. Against this background, some reflections are given relevant for the ongoing work on a local urban food strategy for the city of Gothenburg, Sweden.
Understanding strategies for overcoming peripherality: A Polish experience of transition
Authors: Wójcik Marcin , Dmochowska-Dudek Karolina , Jeziorska-Biel Pamela , Tobiasz-Lis Paulina 
Published: June 2018

AbstractThis article addresses the problematic county of Wieruszow-a peripheral area of Poland, constituting a classic case of historical development away from urban agglomerations, additionally burdened by the stigma of a former near-border location, and later (including today) functioning at the fringe of an administrative district. The area in question exemplifies structural transformations associated with changes in patterns of accessibility to large urban agglomerations following the coming into operation of a key expressway. The work detailed here has sought to analyse the aforementioned area’s position vis-a-vis accessibility, as set against the background of factors justifying the description of “inner periphery”. An essential element in accounting for any strategy for overcoming this peripherality takes the form of the results of in-depth interviews carried out by the authors. Joint consideration of the two perspectives mentioned, i.e. the structural (showing the position of a given area in relation to its proximate (regional) and ultimate (national) environments), and the social (i.e. the expert assessment), ultimately allowed for an assessment of opportunities and threats as far as the overcoming of peripherality in its geographic and social dimensions is concerned.

Introduction: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common congenital cause of upper urinary tract obstruction in children. Our objective is to report our experience concerning the first 20 laparoscopic pyeloplasties.
Material and methods: Retrospective study including twenty children with diagnosis of UPJO that underwent laparoscopic pyeloplasty by a single surgeon, at our Hospital, between November 2010 and December 2014, with at least one year of follow-up. Success was defined as absence of conversion, resolution of symptoms and radiologic criteria improvement.
Results: Median age at surgery was 9.5 years (range between 10 months and 17 years-old). Intrinsic obstruction was found in 7 cases, extrinsic obstruction in 12 cases and one case with both situations. Median operative time was 235 minutes (range between 165-275 minutes), with need for conversion in 2 cases (10%). Median hospital stay was 2 days (range between 2-5 days. Four patients (20%) had early postoperative complications and two cases (10%) needed surgical revision during follow-up. Median follow-up time was 33 months (range between 12-60 months). In follow-up, all but two patients were asymptomatic. There was radiologic improvement of hydronephrosis in all patients but one, although he had non-obstructive pattern in renographic drainage.
Conclusion: Our results are similar to those found in literature, with success rates comparable to open pyeloplasty with advantages of minimally invasive surgery.

günümüzde bilgi iletişim teknolojilerindeki gelişmeler ve küreselleşmenin
getirdiği hızlı değişim örgün eğitimin ortaya çıkardığı nitelikli işgören
kavramının süreliliğini tehlikeye atmıştır. Bu çerçevede her ne kadar nitelikli
bir işgören olsa bile hayat boyu öğrenme felsefesi çerçevesinde belirli
periyodlarda yaygın eğitim faaliyetlerini gerçekleştirmemesi durumunda
hedeflenen işgören etkinliği gerçekleştirileme olasılığında azalmalar ortaya
çıkabilecektir. Özellikle örgün gastronomi eğitiminin yaygın eğitimle
desteklenmesiyle birlikte, hedeflenen işgören etkinlik ve devamlılık
sağlanabilecektir.

Çalışmada, Türkiye’de yaygın gastronomi
eğitimi alanında faaliyet özel nitelikli kursların arz yapısı ve bu kursların
faaliyetlerine katılan bireylerin taleplerinin etkileşim düzeyleri ölçülmesi
amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada yaygın gastronomi eğitimindeki mevcut arz ve talep

El título de ésta primera editorial de éste primer número de la revista puede parecer muy genérico pues en una publicación destinada fundamentalmente, pero no sólo, a interesados en la coloproctología se debería haber especificado ésto en el título, y están más que justificadas las críticas por no haber titulado: Hablando de Formación en Coloproctología. Mis disculpas, pero tengo una fácil defensa, la intención al escribir estas líneas es hacer un recorrido, a modo de recuerdo, de todos los pasos que han posibilitado la publicación que ahora aparece y que es una realidad gracias a los trabajos de los Másteres de Coloproctología. El Máster es una etapa más de todo un plan docente, que no tiene que ser la última.
Abordaje Terapéutico de la Obstrucción Maligna de Colon. Actualización en las Indicaciones de Endoprótesis
Authors: Sanchiz Cárdenas Elena 
Published: June 2018

A pesar de los esfuerzos para el diagnóstico precoz del cáncer de colon con los programas de screening, más del 33% de los paciente con carcinoma colorectal debutan con síntomas que van a requerir de una intervención quirúrgica urgente tanto por perforación, obstrucción o hemorragia.
Las tasas de morbilidad, mortalidad y la necesidad e estoma son mayores en los casos con intervención urgente en comparación con la cirugía electiva. Todo esto influye no sólo en la cirugía urgente, sino en las condiciones de los pacientes intervenidos, frecuentemente en contexto de deshidratación, desnutrición, descompensación hidroelectrolitica y de comorbilidades asociadas, con tumores con un comportamiento biológico más agresivo y mayor frecuencia de metástasis hepáticas. Además, el estudio de extensión es incompleto en estas situaciones, pudiendo condicionar el abordaje oncológico posterior. Teniendo en cuenta que deben respetarse los principios de resección oncológica para el carcinoma colorectal (márgenes distal, proximal y radial así como una linfadenctomia de al menos 12 ganglios) incluso en cirugía urgente, la Guía Americana de la Sociedad de Cirujanos colorectales define los siguientes objetivos para el tratamiento urgente de esta patología: evitar el impacto negativo inmediato de la complicación, conseguir el mejor control del tumor y asegurar que el tiempo de recuperación permita el inicio del tratamiento adyuvante más adecuado.
