The discussion regarding community environments’ on adaptation capabilities are still in debate by the social researchers, both local and oversea.Thus, the study aims to determine the adaptation behavioural model of coastal community in Selangor so that factors can be identified and properly controlled in order to achieve the goal of sustainable development. Theoretically, adaptation behavior is determined by four main factors, namely knowledge, awareness, perception of sea level rise and also socio-economic factors of coastal community. The study involved 1050 respondents determined by stratified random sampling. Data obtained through structured interview were analyzed using the Structured Equation Model (SEM) method. The findings show that aspects of community’s education background, awareness and population as well as socioeconomic aspects have a positive impact on the adaptation practices of the coastal population. RMSEA, RMSR and CFI values have also shown good model criteria and are considered to be appropriate and acceptable. It is found that the construct of knowledge, awareness and perception has shown a high correlation value (r> 0.900, p = 0.05). The socioeconomic factors of population are considered very important in giving a positive impact on adaptation practices towards action to the catastrophic sea level rise. It is proposed that the level of knowledge and socioeconomics of the community should be improved by the authorities to reduce the level of their vulnerability.

Studies done by IPI (2015) found that the sea Sea level rise is the greatest hazard resulting level rise could have negative impacts such as damage from the global climate change. Malaysia is a maritime to transport networks, residential buildings and natural country in South East Asia that is exposed to such ecosystems, especially mangrove vegetation coverage. disaster. With a substantial elongated coastline, According to UNDP (2004), countries located in the Malaysia has a high potential of vulnerability due to Asia Pacific region are vulnerable to climate change sea level rise. According to Nor Aslinda and Mohd disasters such as flash floods, droughts and sea level Radzi (2013), Malaysia may experienced the rising in rise. Approximately by the year 2100, the number of sea level which is above from average value of global Malaysians affected by sea level rise is about 1.5 forecast. Hence, study on the implications of sea level million people, including in Sabah and Sarawak rise among coastal communities is considered very (Ahmad Jamaluddin 2008). The impacts, threats and significant. risks of rising sea levels not only affected to the nearby Although, the state of Selangor is not severely population, but these could also affected natural and susceptible to the sea level rising as compared to other mad made ecosystems. states in the Peninsular (NAHRIM, 2010), however, it In societal context, there are three key elements is better to plan effective programme due to that could be affected the degree of vulnerability; uncertainty of climate change in future. It is timely to namely the sensitivity to disaster, the resilience and study the level of understanding and community’s ability to adapt to the disasters. The vulnerability to adaptation to the disaster of sea level rise in order to disaster is highly dependent on the frequency and increase resilience towards the impact. The purpose of magnitude of disasters, for example the occurences of this study is to determine the relationship between the extreme climate events. According to Cutter (1994) perception and attitude of the coastal community, and and Dombrowski (1998), the level of sensitivity, their adaptability to minimize the adverse effects of the resilience and community adaptation to the disaster is disaster. The Structured Equation Model (SEM) an abstract and difficult to measure. analysis that incorporates factor analysis and multi Hence, the most ideal measuring device is to regression analysis will be used in this study to identify design appropriate questions to identify their community’s adaptation towards sea level rise in individuals and communities' perceptions and Selangor. responses to climate change issues and these are very RESEARCH BACKGROUND significant factors in determining policy planning and Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, environmental disaster preparedness programs.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE FOURTH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP IN ISLAMIC ECONOMIC THEORY (4th IWIET 2020) ISBN: 978-967-17692-2-5 Compliance Behaviour of Business Zakat in Micro Enterprise Firms in Sabak Bernam District of Selangor Mohammad Firdaus Bin Ahmad Mohd Ali Bin Mohd Noor Hairunnizam Bin Wahid Faculty of Economics and Management Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Bangi, Selangor ABSTRACT Islam has decreed zakat (alms-giving) ritual as one of the demands in pillars of Islam functioning to purify one’s properties. Business zakat is a type of zakat applied to the business which comply with the conditions and nisab of zakat in a certain state. Arising research problem was of the unsatisfying performance in collection of business income in spite of progress in zakat collection in Malaysia indicating an increase every year. Objective of this research is to comprehend compliance behaviour of business zakat in micro enterprise firms in Sabak Bernam district using Theory of Planned Behaviour introduced by Ajzen (1991). Four main factors which are factor of religion, factor of attitude towards behaviour, factor of subjective norms, and factor of perceived behavioural control were accounted as the main factors for the implemented theory. Technique of binominal logistic regression analysis was applied to test the model of compliance behaviour in business zakat. A number of 105 questionnaires were distributed to micro enterprise players in service sector in Sabak Bernam district and it was found that research results indicated that the model of this study was consistent with suggestion by planned behaviour theory. Factor of perceived behavioural control was the most influencing factor of compliance behaviour of business zakat (β = 2.493) followed by factor of religion (β = 1.163) and then by factor of attitude towards business zakat (β = 1.054).

    International Journal of the Malay World and Civilisation 8(2), 2020: 19 - 24 (https://doi.org/10.17576-2020-0802-03) Meriam di Kota Melawati, Kuala Selangor Cannons in Fort Melawati, Kuala Selangor MOHD HAIDI MOHD KASRAN, ROZEHA HARUN & MOHD HAIRUL IZWAN MOHD KASRAN ABSTRAK Makalah ini ditulis dengan tujuan untuk mendokumentasikan semula kewujudan beberapa laras meriam besi di Kota Melawati, Kuala Selangor, Selangor. Terdapatnya meriam ini merupakan salah satu bukti wujudnya Kerajaan Kesultanan Selangor dan unsur penjajahan Belanda dan Inggeris di negeri Selangor. Kepentingan meriam ini menunjukkan bahawa kewujudan persenjataan demi mempertahankan kedaulatan raja dan negeri daripada ancaman musuh telah lama wujud. Dokumentasi ini membuktikan bahawa orang Melayu bukanlah bangsa yang lemah dan hanya mengenal keris dan tombak, malahan telah pandai membina dan menggunakan meriam sebagai salah satu senjata hebat yang digunakan sebagai senjata pertahanan. Berdasarkan kepada artifak meriam ini juga telah banyak membantu menyelongkar sejarah peradaban kesultanan Melayu dan rakyat Selangor. Kata kunci: Meriam; kepentingan; kesultanan; Selangor; pertahanan ABSTRACT This paper is written with the purpose of re-documenting the existence of a barrel of iron cannon at Melawati Fort, Kuala Selangor, Selangor. The discovery of the cannons are the manifestations of the Selangor Sultanate and the colonization of the Anglo-Dutch in Selangor. The existence of these cannons also show the armaments and defenses for the sovereignty of the king and state against the threats among enemies. Such discoveries imply that the Malays were not weak for not only have the dagger and the spear, they had even formulated security defense with the cannon as one of the most powerful weapons used to defeat the enemies.
