A lot of academic activities have been carried out from this cooperation such as seminar proceedings, research collaboration, human capital development, and academic publication (books and journal). Now, this cooperation has reached more than one decade and it is my hope to see this academic networking will be strengthening by organizing more academic activities. This book is the first English book publication. By having this version, I hope that the book can be referred internationally, especially for those who are not get in-depth knowledge on Indonesian and Malaysian educational development. Congratulation to those who are involved in this publication! Prof. Dr. H. M. Nur The Dean of The Faculty of Education The University of Riau INDONESIA v vi From the Desk of Editors This book focuses on the empirical research in education in various perspectives. It provides a lot of information and data on educational development in Indonesia and Malaysia. The compilation on the various educational researches in this book is based on the conference papers that have been presented in the several series of Regional Conferences organized by the Faculty of Education, University of Riau Indonesia and the Faculty of Education, National University of Malaysia. The Regional Conferences are organised in every two years. The conferences focused on various issues and development in education and human development. We believe the use of educational knowledge will assist educationists to improve the quality of education as well as their skills in disseminating knowledge. While the book emphasises statistical and narrative findings from the empirical research, perhaps, it provides effective strategies for educators to carry out educational activities in various fields. The book centres on empirical research in education for development. We think you will find this book to be a starting for carrying out comparative research in the future. We banded together to write this book because too little is written about educational research for a country development especially in Malaysian and Indonesian context. Specifically, this book is a main source for educators who seek to improve their understanding on the academic culture, students’ achievement in academic and non-academic, subject-matter education, sociological and psychological aspects. We hope the book can be a useful reference for those who have interest in education for development.

Change also happens to cater the need of the immediate surroundings, local organisation or globalisation. Findings, latest innovation and technological advancement also influence the organisation to change further. This concept paper will look into the role of schools in managing change in schools generally and specifically in overcoming the issues related to the implementation of Standard Curriculum for Primary Schools (SCPS) in primary schools in Malaysia. Headmasters’ role and changes in school are closely related and need collective involvement of all the members in the organisation. In schools, the roles of Headmasters are very important whereby the leadership style can influence and improve the degree of changes and various developments. The active role of a Headmaster

  • The Kimanis By-Election: a Much-Needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan
    ISSUE: 2020 No. 3 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore |16 January 2020 The Kimanis By-election: A Much-needed Sweet (Manis) Victory for Warisan Lee Poh Onn and Kevin Zhang*1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On 18 January 2020, a by-election will be held for the parliamentary seat of Kimanis in Sabah. The Federal Court has upheld the Election Court's ruling that Anifah Aman's victory in the 14th General Elections (GE14) was nullified by election discrepancies. • This by-election is seen as a referendum on the Warisan state government’s performance over the past 18 months since replacing the Barisan Nasional (BN) after GE14, and the outcome would have some impact on Sabah Chief Minister Shafie Apdal’s standing. Warisan-PH and BN had won an equal number of state seats, but Warisan formed the state government only after the defection of some BN state assemblymen. At the Federal level, the Pakatan Harapan government sorely needs a victory in Kimanis to reverse the trend of by-election defeats it has suffered over the past year. • Warisan began the election contest on a stronger footing but it is shaping up to be a close fight. Both candidates, Warisan’s Karim Bujang and UMNO’s Mohamad Alamin, have strong political experience in Kimanis. • Bread and butter issues matter greatly to Kimanis residents who mostly suffer from low incomes and poor infrastructure. Warisan is on the defensive against the BN’s claims that the state government has failed to bring economic uplift to the area.

  • Employers Welcome Ease to Phase 1 Restrictions and Opening up of Economy
    Employers welcome ease to Phase 1 restrictions and opening up of economy 10 AUG 2021 / 13:44 H. PETALING JAYA: Employers in Phase 1 of the National Recovery Plan (NRP) – especially micro enterprises and SMEs in the non- essential sectors – eagerly look forward to the easing of restrictions on social and business activities, as indicated by newly-appointed Senior Minister (Security) Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein recently. Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Syed Husman thanked the senior minister for having empathy and giving due consideration to the acute stress levels of the rakyat in the Klang Valley where the highest concentration of economic activities is located. “Having both mental and physical health is important because this is essential for human beings,” he said in a statement today. “But more importantly are the SMEs that are today classified as non-essential. These SMEs may be non-essential to the government but they are very essential to the businesses and to the livelihoods of the employees and their families. “It has been almost four months of lockdown for many of these SMEs and this has devastated the retail industry. “The barbers, locksmiths, car wash, saloons, gift shops are among those who still continue to suffer. “We appreciate the ease of restrictions for Phase 2 regions, but the impact on businesses and livelihoods in KL and Selangor is huge especially for the non-essential sectors. “The economic stress has become far greater than the physical stress because it can kill the business and all those involved in it.” Syed Hussain also urged the authorities to be reasonable in formulating plans to contain the spread of Covid-19 infection.

  • New Cabinet Appointments Won't Rock the Boat, As Long As People's Health, Economy Under Control KUALA LUMPUR, July 9
    New cabinet appointments won’t rock the boat, as long as people’s health, economy under control KUALA LUMPUR, July 9 -- With new cabinet appointments, the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government looks totally committed to bringing the COVID-19 pandemic under control while ensuring the economy forges ahead despite hiccups and fragilities of the global economy, Juwai IQI chief economist Shan Saeed said. He said Malaysian exports and trade numbers are still strong. “The new appointments will follow the same economic strategy to speed up the vaccine process and to encourage more and more people get vaccinated. “In my view, with current speed and arrival of 12 million vaccines in July, we can expect 60-80 per cent of the population completing their doses by end-September, and this would be remarkable taking into account that many countries are suffering including Australia, Japan, Vietnam, and India,” he told Bernama. Malaysia’s total trade in May 2021 expanded by 48.7 per cent year-on-year to RM170.9 billion as the country’s exports and imports maintained strong double-digit growth, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia. Exports, imports and total trade posted a growth of 47.3 per cent, 50.3 per cent, and 48.7 per cent, respectively. Malaysia, according to Shan, still performs a good job in maintaining macroeconomic stability despite facing various challenges, with Juwai IQI maintaining the country's 2021 gross domestic product growth at between three and four per cent, budget deficit at six to seven per cent, while the ringgit is expected to hover at between 3.67 and 4.10 per US dollar.
