It is reported that that PWDs have to face challenges in finding jobs that suit their capability but they usually eventually quit from their job after struggling with the challenges that come with it. The increasing trend of a high employment turnover among disabled employees in Malaysia has spurred the direction in this study toward examining the concept of leader-member exchange (LMX) which examines the quality of supervisor-subordinate relationships. This study is important because it will bring new insights on how managers can integrate PWDs at the workplace by enhancing their social exchange relationship (dyadic), especially their leadership skills. It was discovered that all components of LMX namely affect, professional respect, contribution and loyalty are all important factors that ensure a good relationship between supervisors and PWDs. In addition, it was found that types of disabilities and PWD working sectors has no mean difference toward the LMX components that influence this dyadic relationship.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89170446","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 establishment of affordable housing that is adequate in number and fulfills liveable home standards is the major challenge in housing issues. Previous studies have found that the current interventions are insufficient in allowing average Malaysians to buy a home. The affordable housing-related issues that arise in Malaysia are not about the number of affordable houses in the market; however, it is about the availability of these houses for the middle-income groups. This study aims to investigate the issues and challenges faced by the middle-income group in dealing with affordable housing issues. This study is based on data from a survey questionnaire adapted from a past research which was similar in terms of affordable housing issues among middle-income earners. The data were analyzed and evaluated to rank the issues and provide recommendations. The findings suggest the establishment of an affordable housing agency to track and process affordable housing applications and approvals. The study results also suggest revising and improving the current affordable housing systems to help the middle-income groups to eventually own their first home. It is anticipated that the study can unravel the problems with affordable housing in this country.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"62 1","pages":"73-90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85563913","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}

However, agriculture is highly vulnerable to climate change. For instance, El Nino is the warm phase of El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) while La Nina is the opposite of El Nino, the cold phase of ENSO. Strong El Nino and La Nina events cause global changes especially in temperature and rainfall, subsequently affect agricultural areas and causing considerable economic losses. Therefore, the objective of this study is to explore the impacts of El Nino and La Nina on palm oil production in selected palm oil producing countries namely Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand from 1980 to 2019 using the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) multiple regression analysis. The results revealed that area harvested and palm oil price affect palm oil production significantly in all palm oil producing countries. Nevertheless, the ENSO effects are not apparent. Only the El Nino dummy coefficients are negative and statistically significant in Thailand, suggesting that the occurrence of El Nino events is more pronounced than the La Nina events on palm oil production in Thailand. Hence, this study suggests that a good water management system is needed to allow the palm oil to achieve optimum production.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"15 1","pages":"108-119"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89746913","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}

However, the evasion of tax is immoral since it is illegal and unethical. This paper examines university students’ perception in Malaysia on the ethics of tax evasion. A survey method consisting of 18 statements was distributed to 120 students from Diploma to Postgraduate students in three higher learning institutions. This study used descriptive analysis to examine the overall mean responses and followed by additional analysis to compare the mean responses according to the respondent’s age and level of educations. The results of this study indicated that respondents agreed that tax evasion was unethical. However, tax evasion becomes ethical under some circumstances when the tax system is unfair and the government or political party is involved in corruption. In terms of age, the youngest group (18 – 25 years old) tends to believe that tax evasion was ethical compared to medium age and older age groups. Besides, the diploma students felt that tax evasion was ethical when they had the highest score than students with degree and masters level. The findings show an early indicator of future taxpayers who believe that tax evasion is ethical depending on the government’s governance, taxpayer’s experience, and the level of tax knowledge. Therefore, this study recommends universities to educate their students on tax evasion areas through the formal syllabus or informal programs in ensuring their students to become good taxpayers.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"198 1","pages":"60-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81077378","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}

As it gains more interest, the issue becomes highly debated worldwide especially with regards to the national park community area. The aim of this study is to assess the identified sustainable criteria for QoL, particularly for the surrounding community of Ledang National Park (LNP) using the fuzzy Analytical Network Process (ANP). The fuzzy ANP was employed based on graded mean integration of representation and canonical representation of multiple operations to derive both local and global weights. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, three decision makers (DMs) were identified from the relevant agencies to assess three main criteria using linguistic evaluation via pairwise comparison process. In addition, nine sub-criteria were also investigated and analysed thoroughly using six steps of the fuzzy ANP towards achieving the sustainable criteria for QoL assessment. Based on the numerical analysis, it was found that the sub-criterion health(c32) has the highest global weight with a score of 0.184, which indicates that this sub-criterion is the biggest contributor to achieve the sustainability of QoL. The results also revealed the overall total score of 73.14%, thus placing LNP in the ‘moderately sustainable’ category. In the future, the entire investigated sub-criteria are suggested to be maintained and used to measure the sustainability of QoL. The findings from this study can be used to guide and assist the relevant authorities for future development planning in studied areas.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"120-137"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88781165","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}

But this decision was overruled by Federal Court in 2019. This study aims to analyse the constitutional issues between statutory law and fatwa, followed by the analysis of whether the denial of the right to carry biological father’s name is in line with the Maqasid al-Shariah. This study was carried out using qualitative research method. The collection of data is derived from an unstructured interview with two experts in the field of constitutional law and fatwa. Secondary data analysis was obtained from National and state fatwas, legal documents, court cases, articles from the journal, book, and newspaper. This study concludes that whether the judgment is constitutional or unconstitutional depends on the interpretation made by the learned judges of the provisions in the Statutes. From the Maqasid al-Shariah point of view, Muslim scholars who disallow the ascription of paternity to the illegitimate children’s biological father, uphold to preserve the purity of lineage (hifznasb), while the group who allows it chose to prevent harms and preserve dignity (hifz al-irdh).

The population of this study consisted of postgraduate students in a public university in Selangor. The sample comprised 104 randomly selected postgraduate students from the university. A 5-point Likert scale questionnaire was administered to the samples. The questionnaire consisted of four domains, namely student factor, supervisor factor, institutional factor and challenges faced by the students. This study discovered that (1) the postgraduate students perceived supervisors as a determinant factor that contributes toward conducting research. (2) they perceived their academic competencies in research writing as moderate and (3) the supervisor factor has a significant and inverse relationship on challenges faced by the postgraduate students, i.e. the efforts and competencies of supervisors reduced challenges of the postgraduate students to complete their research. Based on the findings, it was suggested that higher learning institutions should highlight on the construction of knowledge through active interaction between lecturers and students. This type of assistance has become a platform for the students to cope up with the learning challenges they were facing in higher education.","PeriodicalId":89491,"journal":{"name":"The insight journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"91-107"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81519974","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}
