Even as market ground breakers, an enterprise must invest massive amounts of funds to sustain its competitive edge. Though endless rounds of financing is not a viable option to staying competitive, many enterprises have adopted this management style. A Blue Ocean Strategy is a road map that enables businesses to create or venture into new uncontested market spaces and demand while pursuing product differentiation while keeping costs down. Instead of beating the competition, it reduces the competition or makes it irrelevant. This paper presents a systematic literature review of the Blue Ocean Strategy (BOS) on small-and-medium enterprises. The objective of the study is to provide an overview of the Blue Ocean Strategy and its impact on the sustainable growth and performance of small-and-medium-sized enterprises. The study includes an in-depth analysis of what happens when a company adopts the Blue Ocean Strategy (BOS) and its effect on internal development, overcoming hurdles and achieving sustainable growth, including the findings of this research paper, the implications of those findings and a conclusion. The results found that the Blue Ocean Strategy (BOS) positively affects performance and growth on small and medium enterprises. This study is effective for deciding on the adoption of the Blue Ocean Strategy within an organisation.","PeriodicalId":17041,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABILITY SCIENCE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42340245","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}

Therefore, this study aims to investigate the implementation of safety and health practices by building contractors in Johor, Malaysia. This study employs a survey method distributing survey instruments to G6 and G7 contractors in Johor. Through this method, respondents need to choose which practices they had implemented at their company, give opinions on the factors that hinder the implementation such practices, and propose solutions to overcome those problems. Through this survey, the level of implementation of safety and health management practices among contractors was obtained. This study has also helped provide a better understanding of the current safety and health management practices implemented by contractors in the state and will provide information on the barriers to the implementation of safety and health management practices as well as solutions to problems faced by contractors in implementing those best practices.","PeriodicalId":17041,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABILITY SCIENCE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42762694","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}

The waterfalls feeding Kenyir Lake have become tourists’ main attractions since they are located separately on different islands. There are three naturally picturesque waterfalls worth sight-seeing in the study area, namely Sungai Buweh Waterfall, Lasir Waterfall and Saok Waterfall, which are made up of granitic rock bodies that emerged in the Eastern Belt during the Late Triassic. To date, the waterfall landscape displayed in any area concerning geotourism focuses more on outcrop architecture and geomorphological features but with limited accessibility to the rock records. Thus, this study is carried out to evaluate the geo-heritage features of the waterfall landscape and its rock-forming minerals. Four rock samples were carefully collected from the waterfalls and subsequently prepared for optical thin section petrography analysis using a polarised light microscope. The petrographic analysis will determine the precise mineral compositions, fabrics and microstructures under plane polarised light (PPL) and cross-polarised light (XPL) at different magnifications. In addition, petrographic modelling was constructed using integrated software Autodesk 3ds Max and Debrismaker 2.0 from optical microscopic data to help identify a microscopic mineral in detail so that the mineral becomes clear to both geologists and the public at large. Generally, this modelling will enlighten the public on the material embedded in the rocks, illustrate the importance of learning about a rock-forming mineral and bring this futuristic idea with Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG). Besides making geology an interesting field for young geologists and the public, this mineral affirms the beautiful scenery of waterfalls for tourism, thereby connecting the interrelationship between geotourism and nature. In this regard, the current study was carried out to evaluate the geo heritage features and use an interactive learning platform for interpreting rock-forming minerals and their function towards sustainable geo-tourism.","PeriodicalId":17041,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABILITY SCIENCE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135827347","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}

Insects, whether diurnal or nocturnal are the most diverse organisms on the planet and they play an important role in balancing the local ecosystems. However, their activities might be affected by light pollution, which inadvertently disrupts the natural order. This review found that insects were influenced by light in terms of photoperiod, direction, and mating. However, natural light such as sunlight and moonlight does not have any negative effect on insects while light pollution was found to be a major factor in altering insect activity and behaviour. Despite Malaysia being a megadiverse country with a huge variety of insect biota, not many studies have investigated the effects of light on insects. More studies are needed to investigate the consequences of light pollution, specifically on insect diversity in Malaysia.","PeriodicalId":17041,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF SUSTAINABILITY SCIENCE AND MANAGEMENT","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44449831","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}
