  • Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia
    Asian Social Science; Vol. 12, No. 3; 2016 ISSN 1911-2017 E-ISSN 1911-2025 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia Wan Sallha Yusoff1, Mohd Fairuz Md. Salleh2, Azlina Ahmad2 & Norida Basnan2 1 School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, Malaysia 2 School of Accounting, Faculty of Economics and Management, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Malaysia Correspondence: Wan Sallha Yusoff, School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, Malaysia. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 8, 2015 Accepted: January 18, 2016 Online Published: February 23, 2016 doi:10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 Abstract This study investigates the relationships between financial hegemony groups, global diversification strategies and firm value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies listed in FTSE Bursa Malaysia Index Series during 2009 to 2012 period. We chose Malaysia as an ideal setting because the findings contribute to the phenomenon of the diversification–performance relationship in the Southeast Asian countries. We apply hegemony stability theory to explain the importance of financial hegemony groups in deciding international locations for operations. By using panel data analysis, we find that financial hegemony groups are significantly important in international location decisions. Results reveal that the stability of financial hegemony in BRICS and G7 groups enhances the financial value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies, whereas the stability of financial hegemony in ASEAN groups is able to enhance the non-financial value of the firms.

  • An Introduction to Cantonpop
    An Introduction to Cantonese Pops (Updated version) Dr Helan Yang (Learning and teaching materials for teachers’ reference) Teachers may make reference to the book “Reading Cantonese Songs: The Voice of Hong Kong Through Vicissitudes”《粵語歌曲解讀：蛻變中的香港聲音》 written by Yu Siu Wah and Helan Yang Historical Overview The Origin of Cantonese Pops It is commonly held that Cantonese Pops (known as Cantopop1) emerged in the 50’s, but it is more likely that Cantonese songs with newly composed tunes and lyrics had already come into existence in Hong Kong as early as the 30’s. For example, the song《壽仔去拍 拖》with Cantonese lyrics intercalated with English words featured in an album released by New Moon Records Ltd (新月唱片) in 1930 was already emblematic of Hong Kong culture. The strophic structure of the lyrics and its reflection on life’s reality are similar to that of the ‘Humorous Songs’ (諧趣歌曲) of the 50’s and 60’s. According to Lu Kam (魯金), an expert on Hong Kong folk heritage, the two songs “Sleep Well My Baby”《兒安眠》and “The Miss Who Couldn’t Care Less”《風流小姐》featured in the singer Li Qi Nian’s (李綺 年) album released by New Moon Records in 1935 have new tunes and new lyrics, and can be regarded as the predecessor of Cantonese Pops. The early Cantonese Pops did not have a uniformed nomenclature. The Cantonese albums of the 50’s were released under the various names of ‘Dancing Songs’ (跳舞歌曲), ‘Dancing Cantonese Operatic Songs’ (跳舞粵曲), ‘Cantonese Modern Songs’ (粵語時代 曲), ‘Cantonese Ditties’ (粵語小曲) and ‘Modern Cantonese Operatic Songs’ (時代粵曲).
