This study examines the relationship between foreign portfolio investment (FPI) and Malaysia’s economic performance. In particular, the study analyzes the relationship between FPI and real gross domestic product (GDP) using the widely adopted Granger causality test and the more recent Toda and Yamamoto’s (1995) non-causality test to establish t

The present study attempts to analyze the long-run equilibrium relationship between foreign portfolio investment (FPI) and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by cointegration tests assuming asymmetric adjustment. Following Enders and Siklos (2001), the Engle-Granger two-step cointegration test is expanding to incorporate an asymmetric error correcti

In this paper, we discuss that the logical results in Boolean algebra can equally be derived with ordinary algebraic operations. We establish arithmetic versions of the common logical propositions inclusive of Sheffer stroke (Nand connective) and Peirce’s arrow (Nor connective) which are very important to design circuit diagrams. We present the c

This article examines income convergence or divergence behavior between ten selected OIC (the Organisation of Islamic Conference) economies and the benchmark country of the United States for the period 1970 to 2004. The results are then linked to the degree of openness of the countries under study based on globalization indices. To investigate conv

Malaysia has a rich diversity of medicinal plants and some of them have the property to inhibit xanthine oxidase (XO), which can be introduced as new natural source of gout medication and a substitute for synthetic xanthine oxidase inhibitors (XOI), specifically Allopurinol which has many side effects. Fifty samples from twenty plant species were e

The study attempts to analyze the impact of income level, population growth on sustainable development indicators of 39 Muslim countries of the world.
