Characteristics of female labor force in Malaysia IV. Factors affecting gender pay gap V. Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) VI. Policies to close gender gap VII. Conclusion I. Introduction The involvement of Malaysian women in all spheres of life has become more visible over the years. This is primarily contributed by the advancement of women in education. In Malaysia, female educational attainment has increased substantially in the post-independence era. Female adult literacy increased from 61.3% in 1980 to 90.8% in 2010 (UNESCO 2016). In Malaysia, both boys and girls enjoy equal opportunity and access to education. Affordable education bridged gender disparities in primary and secondary education (UNICEF 2019). Several important reforms took place in the Malaysian educational system which led to increased equality and equity in education opportunities. In 1970, a significant reform took place in the education system where the Malay language was introduced as the official medium of instruction in all government schools. The change was implemented at the tertiary level in the mid-1980s.1 This reform was an important tool to integrate the multiracial society as well as to eradicate the poverty addressed in the New Economic Policy (NEP). The reform increased access to education especially for rural Malays whose native tongue was the Malay language (Ismail 2007). In the 1990s, the mounting demand for local tertiary education in the 1990s eventually led to a reform of the tertiary education system in Malaysia which included the privatisation of tertiary education institutions.

This study also examines the impact of macro prudential policy measure implemented in 2010 on the lending activities of Malaysian commercial banks. Employing random effects estimation, the findings demonstrate that bank size and volume of deposit positively influence commercial bank lending in Malaysia, while liquidity negatively influences the lending activities. With regard to macroeconomic determinants, this study does not find any conclusive evidence to support the influence of gross domestic product (GDP), lending rate and cash reserve requirement on commercial bank lending activities in Malaysia. Moreover, the findings of this study also reveal that the macroprudential policy measure which was implemented in 2010 to curb the high level of household indebtedness does not give any significant impact on lending activities in Malaysia during the study period.

ISBN 978-88-95608-69-3; ISSN 2283-9216 DOI: 10.3303/CET1972036 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trend in Old Landfill, Malaysia Nurul Hidayah Shabdin, Pramila Tamunaidu*, Shuib Rambat, Mohd Rizuan Mansor M alaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Jalan Sultan Yahya Petra, 54100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia [email protected] According to Malaysia National Greenhouse Gas Inventory report, a total of 67,532 Gg CO2eq of methane was emitted in year 2011. The highest methane emission was from the solid waste disposal sites, which accounted for about 46 % from the total which remained the largest source throughout the time series period. Proper gas monitoring was not done in most landfills which the emission trend, pattern and impact remains untold. Understanding methane and carbon dioxide concentration trends will positively help in spatial variation of landfill emissions in Malaysia. Therefore, this research highlighted two objectives. First, to test feasibility of prototype sampling tube to collect gas samples. Second, to analyze gas samples using micro gas chromatography and evaluate emission trend in Taman Beringin Closed Landfill. Using proper technique, the sampling tube was employed manually at the gas well which located at the highest point of the hill. Three samples collected everyday between 12 to 2 p.m. for 1 mth. Result shows an interesting trend recorded for methane and carbon dioxide.

  • Unbalanced Bilingualism, Diglossia and Class Division in Postcolonial Law
    Intl J Legal Discourse 2016; 1(2): 295–318 Richard Powell* Unbalanced bilingualism, diglossia and class division in postcolonial law DOI 10.1515/ijld-2016-0018 Received March 22, 2016; accepted October 1, 2016 Abstract: A number of postcolonial jurisdictions function bilingually as a result of policies to open up law to indigenous languages. Planned bilingualism is typical of Asian polities that inherited English-based common law, with Bangladesh, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, Myanmar and Pakistan all use languages other than English in legal documents and courtroom proceedings. There are also bilingual practices in the hybrid law of Sri Lanka and the Philippines and the civil law of former Portuguese colonies such as Timor Leste and Macao. Bilingualisation typically begins with innovation in the legal lexicon and proceeds to the translation or bilingual drafting of legal texts in order to facilitate use of a second language in litigation and jurisprudence. It may be an interim process ushering in comprehensive vernacularisation, but more often it results in the long-term cohabitation of two or more languages within the legal domain. This study is interested in the implications of such cohabitation for legal practitioners. Focusing primarily on Malaysia while mak- ing comparisons with other Asian jurisdictions, it considers the largely political motivations behind language-in-law policies, reviews the process and reception of planning and explores how language choice in legal education may affect career paths.
