  • Exploring the Role of Malaysian Student's Intrapreneurial Self
    sustainability Article Exploring the Role of Malaysian Student’s Intrapreneurial Self-Capital in the Relationship between Satisfaction with Life, Academic Performance, and Flourishing Chua Bee Seok 1, Pan Lee Ching 1 and Rosnah Ismail 2,* 1 Faculty of Psychology and Education, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Kota Kinabalu 88400, Malaysia; [email protected] (C.B.S.); [email protected] (P.L.C.) 2 Department of Psychology, Faculty of Allied Health Sciences, University of Cyberjaya, Cyberjaya 63000, Malaysia * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 November 2019; Accepted: 10 January 2020; Published: 13 January 2020 Abstract: Intrapreneurial self-capital is the construct coined by Di Fabio as a core of individual resources used to cope with career and life construction challenges. In this study, we used the model of Individual Differences in Evaluating Life Satisfaction (IDELS) to examine the mediating role of intrapreneurial self-capital in the relationship between life satisfaction and flourishing among Malaysian undergraduate students. The Intrapreneurial Self-Capital Scale (ISCS), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and Flourishing Scale were administered to 665 undergraduate students from one of the public universities in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. The results reported a significant direct effect of student satisfaction with life to flourishing. A significant path coefficient was also found from satisfaction with life and student academic performance to intrapreneurial self-concept providing the support that student satisfaction with life and academic performance has a positive effect on their intrapreneurial self-concept. The coefficients from intrapreneurial self-concept to flourishing was also significant. This provides initial support that an intrapreneurial self-concept may have a positive mediating effect on the relationship between satisfaction with life, academic performance, and flourishing.

  • The Effects of Piper Sarmentosum Aqueous Extracts on Zebrafish
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The efects of Piper sarmentosum aqueous extracts on zebrafsh (Danio rerio) embryos and caudal fn tissue regeneration Intan Zarina Zainol Abidin1*, Shazrul Fazry2, Nur Hidayah Jamar2, Herryawan Ryadi Ediwar Dyari3, Zaidah Zainal Arifn4, Anis Nabilah Johari5, Nur Suhanawati Ashaari6, Nor Azfa Johari6, Rohaya Megat Abdul Wahab7 & Shahrul Hisham Zainal Arifn5,6* In Malaysia, Piper sarmentosum or ‘kaduk’ is commonly used in traditional medicines. However, its biological efects including in vivo embryonic toxicity and tissue regenerative properties are relatively unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine zebrafsh (Danio rerio) embryo toxicities and caudal fn tissue regeneration in the presence of P. sarmentosum aqueous extracts. The phytochemical components and antioxidant activity of the extract were studied using GC–MS analysis and DPPH assay, respectively. Embryo toxicity tests involving survival, heartbeat, and morphological analyses were conducted to determine P. sarmentosum extract toxicity (0–60 µg/mL); concentrations of 0–400 µg/mL of the extract were used to study tissue regeneration in the zebrafsh caudal fn. The extract contained several phytochemicals with antioxidant activity and exhibited DPPH scavenging activity (IC50 = 50.56 mg/mL). Embryo toxicity assays showed that a concentration of 60 μg/mL showed the highest rates of lethality regardless of exposure time. Slower embryogenesis was observed at 40 µg/mL, with non-viable embryos frst detected at 50 µg/mL. Extracts showed signifcant diferences (p < 0.01) for tissue regeneration at all concentrations when compared to non-treated samples. In conclusion, Piper sarmentosum extracts accelerated tissue regeneration, and extract concentrations at 60 µg/mL showed the highest toxicity levels for embryo viability.

It is with a tinge of sadness to see them leave as young adults on the edge of realising their dreams to conquer the world in their own fashion. Nonetheless, we are also happy for them as we see them as boys and girls whom we have nurtured for so many year, for some of us, and for whom we wish great things. As such we are always delighted to have our former students drop by the school when they are back in the country, and most certainly, we are always very proud of what they have achieved. As you look through these pages of this issue, you will see a diverse range of people from various countries and cultures who had come together for a ‘brief’ moment in time in our school.

MPRA 2013 will see 5 category Award winners, 11 Certificates of Excellence and 3 Honourable Mentions. In addition, the Awards’ highest honour, The Campaign of the Year, is also up for grabs this year. Once again, we will also be recognising a senior member of the Malaysian PR industry with the PRCA Malaysia Lifetime Achievement Award. As the leading local industry awards modelled after Media publication’s Asia PR Awards, the MPRA was introduced as an avenue for public relations professionals to put forth their exceptional work for clients and organisations. The Awards also functions as an industry showcase of the rich talent, growing expertise and professional standards which abound in Malaysia. While we celebrate the achievements of our winners tonight, I would like to draw your attention to the judges’ feedback with regards to the entries. They acknowledged that while most of the entries were very well thought through and put together, it was lacking the creative boost needed to grab the audience’s attention and thus transform it into a memorable piece of work.
