The authors investigate contango and backwardation formations and seasonality traits in Malaysia over 22 years spanning 1995 to 2017. Employing graphical observations and statistical tests, contango and backwardation traits appear through market expectations, seasonality, cost of carry model predictions, and index volatility. Unit root, cointegrati

The trade union recognition process is a pre-requisite to the collective bargaining action of a trade union. The recognition is important to ascertain the competency of a trade union and the acceptance by the workers to represent them in the collective bargaining action with the employer. However, the ambiguities in the existing legislations on the

Technology Acceptance Model 3 (TAM3) is an inclusive and complex model where it emphasizes the processes that relate to perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. The model suggests that predictors for perceived usefulness will not influence the perceived ease of use and vice versa. This quantitative research investigates the relationship betw

Islam is a religion which defends the rights and privileges of women. Before the emergence of Islam, women did not have the freedom to question their rights and privileges . Islam defends the rights and privileges of women through the reformation (al-islah) of culture , legislation as well the system of life of the jahiliyyah (period before Islam)

Education in Malaysia is a continuous process to develop individuals’ physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual capacity. Such are the core components in the Malaysia’s National Education Philosophy, befitting the functions of university which focus on developing the intellectual, educational, and social capacity among individuals in the

Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of the most important pollutants since it is selected for API calculation. Therefore, it is paramount to ensure that there is no missing data of CO during the analysis. There are numbers of occurrences that may contribute to the missing data problems such as inability of the instrument to record certain parameters. In vi

The flipped learning approach focuses on meaningful learning and it is based on responsibility shared by educators and learners. Flipped learning also authorises learners to take an engaging role in learning whilst educators facilitate the learning process. While the implementation of flipped learning has proven to enhance ESL teaching and learning

Air pollution monitoring especially PM10 pollutant is very important since the air pollutant data originated from the continuous ambient air quality stations (CAAQS) usually had missing data due to the machine failure, routine maintenance and human error. In view of this fact, a study of PM10 imputation method was performed with the objective to de

Potassium sodium niobate (KNN) thin film is a very promising candidate for piezoelectric applications such as for the usage in wireless sensor, actuator, and transducer. In this paper, a low-cost sol-gel spin coating technique was employed to fabricate KNN thin films on silicon (Si) substrate. The effect of pyrolysis and annealing temperature on th
