In military, the design of training program is focus on the process in developing knowledge, skills and attitude to prepare personnel for the contemporary security situation. A training framework must be well designed to ensure the training effectiveness and the level of expected performance of the military personnel will achieve. The training program must be triangulate within theoretical and practical aspects to produce a high performance of military personnel. Training management literature emphasized the designing of training program consist of three important elements: (1) training syllabus; (2) instructors' roles; and (3) superiors' support, which may lead to a high impact of training transfer in organizations. However, the role of training motivation as a mediator is given less explanation in the training program. Therefore, the aim of this research is to investigate and quantify the effect of training motivation in the military training through the Islamic views. In Islamic perspective, training of the military is compulsory regarding to the word of Allah in Surah al-Anfal verses 60: \"And prepare against them (enemies of Islam) whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know (but) whom Allah knows.\" As a Muslim soldier, as well as a duty to defend the country's sovereignty, they are also serves to introduce Islam. Therefore, this role requires the competency, physical strength, mental and spiritual to ensure the excellence, and do not be misled by temptations of lust and enemy tactics.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: Training program, training motivation, training transfer, Islamic perspective","PeriodicalId":113523,"journal":{"name":"14th GCBSS Proceeding 2022","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123134436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the contrary, the Barisan Nasional camp defended the position of GST, claiming that Pakatan Harapan's SST is the actual burden to the citizens, as asserted by former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak (The Edge Malaysia Weekly, 2019). Notwithstanding these assertions, it is evident that both SST and GST are claimed to be regressive since they may impose a heavier burden on lower-income groups than higher-income groups (Narayanan, 2014), thus affecting the household consumption expenditures of these groups (Jamel et al., 2021). While managing the public acceptance of tax changes is rather complex, especially if the changes are deemed unfavorable with the possibility of undermining spending patterns following their implications on product rates, the public is also likely to resent the government's tax increment due to the burden imposed on them.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: Indirect tax policy, tax burden, spending patterns, household consumption expenditures","PeriodicalId":113523,"journal":{"name":"14th GCBSS Proceeding 2022","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131020729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Achieving net zero carbon emissions or carbon neutrality by a specific target year emerged as a new form of climate target. As of September 2022, 136 countries, including the European Union (EU), approximately 70% of 197 parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), have announced or are discussing net zero targets. Although the number of governments pledging net zero has sharply increased since the late 2010s, the announcement of net zero targets at the national level dates back to 2007. However, despite the recent popularity, not all countries are supportive of setting their net zero targets. While eight countries announced net zero targets before the adoption of the Paris Agreement in December 2015, 119 countries have not yet officially pledged net zero targets. Considering that all countries' participation is required to meet the global climate target, it needs to look at which countries are lagging in the global climate efforts and why they are so. With this background, this study examines 1) the global diffusion trends and status of net zero pledges; and 2) factors that might impact the county's net zero pledge.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: Net zero, Carbon neutrality, Greenhouse gas reduction, Climate Change","PeriodicalId":113523,"journal":{"name":"14th GCBSS Proceeding 2022","volume":" 82","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113947435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fact, no country in the world has reverted from the Goods and Services Tax (GST) to the Sales and Services Tax (SST), except for Malaysia. Due to GST abolishment, Malaysia incurred an annual revenue loss of RM20 billion, and, surprisingly, the reintroduction of SST 2.0 did not contribute much to the government. Compared to the GST collection of RM41 billion in 2016 and RM44 billion in 2017, SST 2.0 only collected RM26.7 billion in 2020 and RM27.9 billion in 2021. Unfortunately, from the public's perspective, GST remains a very unpopular indirect tax reform due to its regressive nature, affecting both the poor and poor the rich. Since the tax applies to every transaction regardless of the socioeconomic status of individuals, it places an undue burden, especially on poor households. Similarly, the SST 2.0 also disappoints the public since it has the same features as SST 1.0, for instance, high tax evasion levels by businesses (Sanusi et al., 2015) and a cascading impact of sales tax whereby the tax incurred by manufacturers is re-taxed (tax-on-tax effect) to a certain extent at subsequent manufacturing process stages, thus increasing the prices of goods and services (Zhou et al., 2013). Besides, literature on the key catalyst of the public acceptance of Malaysian indirect tax also lacks discussions on a specific public acceptance model for indirect tax policy implementation. Since these unresolved problems could instigate another tragic rejection by the public and impact the government's revenue collection, this study, therefore, aims to bridge the gap by proposing an indirect tax acceptance model using the guiding principles of good tax policy recommended by AICPA (2017).\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: Goods and Services Tax (GST), Indirect Tax Policy, Good Tax Policy.","PeriodicalId":113523,"journal":{"name":"14th GCBSS Proceeding 2022","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128616434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially when it comes to shopping for everyday necessities. The limitations of doing transactions offline make people shop more for their daily needs online. This phenomenon makes e-commerce business increase sharply. Not only that, the e-commerce business competition map is increasingly competitive. The tight competition is reflected in the number of website visits and e-commerce application users in Indonesia. The coronavirus pandemic has not shown signs of ending until the third quarter of 2020. During the period of emigrants, e-commerce players are increasingly aggressively presenting online shopping as an alternative to fulfilling daily needs without leaving the house. MarkPlus Inc. Release the results of the latest research related to e-commerce. The survey results of The Asian Parent show that almost all respondents who are mothers in Indonesia use online shopping applications. As many as 80% of them shop at Shopee the most. This shows that Shopee is a marketplace that is favored by consumers. Electronic Service Quality or also known as E-ServQual is a new version of Service Quality (ServQual). E-ServQual was developed with the aim of evaluating the services provided online or over the internet. E-Service Quality is a service from the site to facilitate shopping, purchasing, and distribution activities effectively and efficiently (Chase, Jacobs, &Aquilano, 2006). According to Tjiptono (2011) there are seven dimensions of e-service quality, namely efficiency, reliability, fulfillment, privacy, responsiveness, compensation, contact (contact). One of the disadvantages of shopping online is the doubt and lack of consumer confidence in the product to be purchased, so online marketers must provide quality services so that consumers believe. According to Mowen and Minor (2012), consumer trust is the belief that consumers have about objects, attributes, and benefits. Objects can be products, people, companies, and anything that has beliefs and attitudes. Based on these backgrounds and explanations, this study aims to determine the partial and simultaneous influence of e-service quality variables on consumer confidence in shopping at shopee.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: E-Service Quality, Trust, Shopee","PeriodicalId":113523,"journal":{"name":"14th GCBSS Proceeding 2022","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130781477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
