  • Risk Profiling in Agriculture in Malaysia
    Kajian Malaysia, Vol. 30, No.1, 2012, 21–50 RISK IN MALAYSIAN AGRICULTURE: THE NEED FOR A STRATEGIC APPROACH AND A POLICY REFOCUS Okezie Chukwukere Austin1,2* and Amir Hussin Baharuddin2 1Department of Agricultural Economics, Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike Nigeria 2School of Social Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang *Corresponding author: [email protected] The agricultural sector is exposed to a variety of risks that occur with high frequency. These risks include climate and weather, natural catastrophes, pests and diseases, which combine to cause highly variable production outcomes. The broad objective of this study is to examine these agricultural risk factors and the policies in place for countering them. The approach adopted here includes an in- depth review of literature, government policy documents and Emergency Disasters Databases (EM-DAT) data on disaster occurrences. Inferential statistics were employed in data analysis. Risk management in agriculture ranges from informal practices such as the avoidance of highly risky crops and crop and income-source diversification to formal measures such as crop insurance, a minimum-support price system and a futures market. Statistics show the prevalence of weather-related hazards of cyclone, floods, landslides, earthquake and tsunami. As to the impact of such hazards on human health, statistics for 1980–2010 show that deaths caused by epidemics amounted to 43.4% of all deaths arising from natural disasters. Epidemics accounted for the highest number of deaths against 5.8% the lowest arising from mass movement (dry). Government policy documents show that efforts have been made to manage hazards, such as the construction of the Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART), the tsunami-recovery plan and the December 2006 flood- recovery plan, among others.

ONG FON SIM Universiti Tun Abdul Razak DR. TENGKU AIZAN HAMID Associate Professor - Universiti Putra Malaysia 182 1. Introduction The past economic success of Malaysia has fallen into the middle-income trap. The pressure is for Malaysia to move upwards to become a high income country by 2020. Coupled with this pressure is the global economic recession. Like many other countries, Malaysia has introduced/ implemented stimulus packages to ride out the crisis. However, the impact of the present crisis may still be felt long after the recovery in that such measures may constrain future fiscal flexibility, since the resulting future budgets will need to be financed (Asher, 2009). The Malaysian government has recently announced a deficit at 5.6 per cent of GDP for its 2010 Budget, compared with 7.4 per cent in 2009.

  • The Determinants of Health Expenditure in Malaysia: a Time Series Analysis
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive The determinants of health expenditure in Malaysia: A time series analysis Tang, Chor Foon Economics Programme, School of Social Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia 2010 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/24356/ MPRA Paper No. 24356, posted 11 Aug 2010 15:45 UTC The determinants of health expenditure in Malaysia: A time series analysis Chor Foon TANG Economics Programme, School of Social Sciences Universiti Sains Malaysia, 11800 USM, Penang, Malaysia ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of health expenditure in Malaysia within the time series framework from 1967 to 2007. This study employed the Johansen-Juselius cointegration test to examine the cointegration relationship. The results showed that health expenditure and its determinants are cointegrated. Consistent with economic theory, the TYDL and variance decomposition analysis reveals that the key explanatory variables in Malaysia’s health expenditure model are income, health care price and the proportion of population aged more than 65 years old. Moreover, the TYDL causality indicates that health expenditure and income is bi-directional in nature, thus policies initiative to promote health expenditure should be implemented to achieve sustainable economic growth and development. Keywords: Cointegration; Health; Income; Malaysia; TYDL JEL Classification Code: C01; C22; H51; I18 1. INTRODUCTION The role of health expenditure on economic growth has been advocated by Mushkin (1962). The author postulated that health is a capital and thus investment on health should be a prominent source for economic growth (see also Grossman, 1972). This theory has sparked the interest of researchers and thus generated voluminous empirical studies over the last few decades.

    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 5 Issue 12||December. 2016 || PP.55-60 Language Change and Maintenance of Tamil language in the Multilingual Context of Malaysia Paramasivam Muthusamy, Atieh Farashaiyan University Putra Malaysia University Kebangsaan Malaysia ABSTRACT: The prevailing multilingual situation of Malaysia reflects the gradual shift in the use of minority languages (ethnic) like Tamil, both in formal as well as informal domains of language use. There are several reasons for language shift to take place in the maintenance of language, and one such is the existing power that goes with language(s). How Far language attitudes, linguistic views and power based policies will poster the use of concerned language for the benefit of society at large is indeed a challenge and seems to be a question mark. The Malaysian Tamil society is gradually shifting to language like English and Bahasa Malaysia as media of instruction to achieve education needs in different displaces of knowledge, considering the modern economic- scientific and technological – occupational- developmental progress and needs of the society. Moreover, these kinds of existing rigidity in attitude towards language use and emotionally motivated views might cause problems in the long run for society in getting education or employment opportunities. Language policies has made mandatory use of Malay education, use of the English language at different levels with power and efficiency, use of mother- tongue languages in education and mass media as far as possible. The present day generation prefer training in job-oriented, application and practice oriented education, so they are forced to shift from their mother- tongue to the national language or English for specific purposes.
