The purpose of this conceptual article is to expand and extend Bakhtin’s theory of novel and to explore their relevance to organization development practice and research, in particular that relates to the ‘sacred’ type of inquiry. We placed organization development inquiry as a ‘signed’ act within Bakhtin’s moral philosophy whereby it i

This paper attempts to review the historical aspects of the problems arises in history education and provides suggestions for someappropriate measures that will enable students to instil values associated with racial relationship. Next, this paper highlightssteps needed to be carried out in schools and the Ministry of Education (MOE) which is hoped

Orang Asli community is continuously given attention by the government for their development so as not to widen digital gap with other advanced races in Malaysia. IT education and access to computers and internets seem to be one of the noble viable options for the young generations to nurture the knowledge society values. This is due to many advers

Thin client systems have advanced recently with new innovative design extensions such as virtualisation and cloud computing. Client-server architecture is the basis for thin client system to connect remote multi-workstations to administrative servers located in headquarters or data center. This paper first presents a literature review on thin clien

A novel tunable fibre laser (TFL) operating in the ordinary band (O-band) of 1310 nm is proposed and demonstrated. The proposed TFL is developed using a 1×16 arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) as a slicing mechanism for the broadband amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source and an optical channel selector (OCS) to provide the tunability. A semicon

The intellectual discussion on Malay mythology, symbol and imagery have been almost completely forgotten by scholars and students of Malay studies presently and was very much misunderstood by scholars of Malay studies in the past. The modern Western approach which leaned toward the anthropological and sociological understandings of those aspects of

Zinc-air cell employing laccase enzyme as the oxygen reduction catalyst has been investigated. Laccase is an oxidoreductase, belongs to the copper-containing enzyme family which attracts many due to its ability to reduce molecular oxygen to water. The test cell consisted of zinc metal foil as the anode and a carbon-based air electrode as the cathod

The cyber age affects all aspects of life. In defamation law, new trends of anonymous defamer, limited meaning of defamer, liberal meaning of defence of qualified privilege, insistence on actual damage, multiple places of publication, and irrelevancy of slander have emerged. Some results of these trends are horrifying. The common law tort of defama

In this paper, we demonstrated a novel multi-wavelength fiber laser system operating in the O-band (1310 nm) region. The proposed O-band multi-wavelength fiber laser uses a 1 × 24 Arrayed Waveguide Grating to generate eight output channels simultaneously with a span width of 14.05 nm. In addition to this, the tunability of a single wavelength outp

Bagi Amerika Syarikat(AS), Timur Tengah merupakan wilayah yang harus diurus demi kepentingan negara terutama yang berkaitan dengan minyak petroleum. Oleh itu negara-negara Arab mesti diladeni dengan penuh kemesraan. Hal ini menimbulkan konflik kerana AS selama-lamanya mempunyai komitmen tinggi terhadap Israel. Fakta menunjukkan bahawa AS merupakan
