Since the religious factors have been brewed in Islamic tourism, it most likely influences the pros and cons of its growth in Malaysia. The data gathered from literature review were critically debated to fill the gaps in understanding the emergence of Islamic tourism. Therefore, the main issue address in this paper is to highlight as to how Islamic tourism (or so called religious/spiritual tourism) could give significant changes and impacts towards Malaysia’s tourism industry. The findings of the study provide the impacts of Islamic tourism from the aspects of economics, socio-culture, politics and environment. Since the tourism industry itself is a profitable chain, it also helps to be as a weapon of poverty reduction to Muslim countries while preserving and conserving the Islamic socio-culture. Islamic tourism helps to stabilize the politic issues and provide less pollution to the environment. Key words: islamic tourism, Malaysia, religious tourism, tourism impacts Introduction The tourism industry is well known with the visitation of tourists from one place to another.

  • Long-Stay Tourism and International Retirement Migration: Japanese Retirees in Malaysia Mayumi Ono University of Tokyo
    Yamashita et al., eds. Transnational Migration in East Asia Senri Ethnological Reports 77: 151–162 (2008) Long-Stay Tourism and International Retirement Migration: Japanese Retirees in Malaysia Mayumi Ono University of Tokyo Introduction This paper explores a new trend in Japanese outbound tourism, namely long-stay tour- ism, as it is seen in the case of Japanese retirees in Malaysia.1) Long-stay tourism, which is known as rongusutei in Japanese, is a new type of tourism in which people stay in foreign destinations for long periods of time in order to experience living abroad. It generates a fl ow of people for whom the distinction between tourism/tourists and migra- tion/migrants has become blurred. Under the current acceleration of the declining birth- rate and aging society, increasing numbers of Japanese pensioners are interested in retiring abroad and actually move to foreign destinations in pursuit of a better quality of retirement life. In 2005 the number of Japanese overseas tourists above the age of 50 rose above six million; these upper middle-aged tourists are a signifi cant potential market in international tourism. The word rongusutei is a registered trademark of the Long Stay Foundation (Rongusutei Zaidan), which was established in 1992 as a public interest corporation authorized by the former Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI). Accord- ing to the Long Stay Foundation, long-stay tourism is “a style of staying abroad for a relatively long time in order to experience the life and culture in a place of destination and contribute to the local society while leaving the economic resources in Japan” (Long Stay Foundation 2002).

  • An Agenda-Setting Study of National Day Coverage in State and National Newspapers
    3L: The Southeast Asian Journal of English Language Studies – Vol 23(4): 41 – 55 http://doi.org/10.17576/3L-2017-2304-04 An Agenda-setting Study of National Day Coverage in State and National Newspapers SU HIE TING Universiti Malaysia Sarawak [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper describes an agenda-setting study of national day coverage in state and national newspapers. The specific aspects examined were the framing of the national day news in episodic or thematic terms, quotation of sources, and priming strategies. The theoretical framework of the study was the agenda-setting theory on how the salience attached to issues is influenced by the mass media. The media discourse data analyzed were 48 news articles related to national day that were published on 31 August 2016 in four newspapers. Textual analysis of the headlines and articles were conducted. The results showed that the national day articles were mainly in episodic frames, reporting particularly parades and events or competitions where the national flag is displayed. The thematic frames were mainly on the ordinary Malaysians’ experiences as well as those with links to the 1957 events. The newspapers deemed politicians as the most important source to quote for newsworthiness. The politicians played an important role in priming the readers or the Malaysians to appreciate what they have. One priming strategy was to bring up positive values on unity in diversity, patriotism and freedom which had been achieved due to the sacrifices of past Malaysians. The other priming strategy was mentioning or showing symbols of national identity, particularly the national flag and sometimes the national anthem, to invoke feelings of patriotism.
