This paper explores the legal and regulatory challenges for digital and virtual currency in Malaysia, with special focus on cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. The emphasis is on cybercrime and consumer protection. Since very few countries have adequate legislation to regulate virtual currency, it has been widely exploited by scammers and syndicates for m

The purpose of the research was to establish whether ‘blended learner-led learning’ could impact learners’ motivation, interaction and academic achievement. The researchers set about adapting Flipped Classroom Method by allowing small teams of undergraduate students to share the responsibility of preparing online materials and then administer

The objective of this study is to examine earnings management influence on directors’ remuneration. Taking a calculation of the empirical evidence of earnings management, firm performance and directors’ remuneration, this study is able to demonstrate that pay-performance is not influenced by earnings management. Data for this study were extract

Utilization of EFB-derived biochar in sintering of iron ore has been conducted in this work with regards to the porosity of iron sinter. EFB has been heated up in argon atmosphere to 450ºC in order to produce biochar. In the present work, the sintering process was conducted at 1150ºC with variations of biochar content from 5% to 10%. In this case

Flipped Classroom Method (FCM), a sub-category of blended learning, is a renowned teaching method that combines online learning with face to face instruction. Yet, the onus of preparing the online resources and classroom activities falls upon the teacher, meaning that it can still be considered to be rather teacher-centered in nature. The authors s

This paper focus on reduction of low grade iron at high temperature using palm oil empty fruit bunch as a reductant. The samples were crushed and compacted into composite pellet with EFB before drying at 110oC for 24 hours. The reduction test was then conducted by heating the composite pellet in an electric tube furnace. The parameter used was at t

The objective of this research is to identify the possible responses among small and medium audit firms in Malaysia toward surveys. A total of 119 audit firms were involved in this survey. The list of firms was acquired from Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA), and the final sample consisted of firms particularly from Kuala Lumpur and Selangor

Treatment of low grade iron ore involved reduction of oxygen in iron oxide by using reductant such as carbon monoxide or hydrogen gas. Presently, carboneous materials such as coke/coal are widely used as a source to provide reducing gas, but some problem arises from this material as the gas can harm the environments. Therefore, empty fruit bunch bi

Results are presented for an extraction of the top quark Yukawa coupling from top quark-antiquark (t¯t) kinematic distributions in the lepton plus jets final state in proton-proton collisions, based on data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at ffiffi s p ¼ 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.8 fb−1. Corrections from
