...government The successful privatization should bring gain to the government in term of reduce financial burden of those entities that suffer losses .For example is Malaysia Airlines (MAS). According to Tun Dr Mahathir, MAS should be privatize since ten years ago due to loss of RM 10 billion in term of capital injection and government also did not received dividend during the 5 years to 1985. As we can see now days, there are so many problems facing by MAS. For instance the accident of MH370 and MH17 that make MAS become worse. In order MAS to success they need to reconstruct the management structure from top to bottom to make a better decision making and become more perform. Besides that, the privatization also undertaking and maintain services and infrastructure, for example according to the Privatization Master Plan Policy (PMP), proceeds from sale of government equity in privatize companies has generated RM1.88 billion, while the government is said to have saved more than RM8.2 billion in capital expenditure for infrastructure development through privatize (Build- operate-transfer (BOT) project and a further RM7.45 billion of the government’s outstanding debt is said to have been transferred to the private sector (New Straits Times 10th August 1989). Other than that, with privatization the government also now enjoys revenue from lease payment as well as corporate taxes. Moreover, with the ability of private loan financing...

...INTRODUCTION The purpose of this paper is to define the transportation system and its assets in Malaysia providing a brief history of the country’s transportation and examine the different means through which passengers and goods are moved from one place to another with emphasis on technology development and its overall impact on transportation. The paper will also explore the Malaysian culture looking at the origin of multiculturalism and how its broad acceptance has contributed to a better atmosphere of harmony resulting into a peaceful practice of desired religions. Further, the paper will analyze the role of government in the area of education, and the impact of technology on Malaysian culture in general. Finally, the paper will describe the moral and ethical issues associated with technology and how Malaysia addresses them. History of Malaysia’s transportation system The gateway to any society is better transportation and Malaysia is a country that has been improving on its transportation beginnings. Understanding the definition of the transportation system will provide clarity of the different system designs, structures, and capabilities set in place to meet specific transportation needs of the Malaysian people whether it is by land, air, and water. Asianinfo.org states “Malaysia’s road system, which was begun during British colonization, is extensive and covers about 63,455km.” The road systems length spans 39,429 miles and Malaysia’s main highway covers a distance...

...Malaysia’s proactive approach to regional and global environmental issues The level of awareness among consumers and government agencies alike on embracing as well as understanding environmental issues is rapidly growing around the world. Could it be because of the hundreds of pictures being shown of the ice melting in the Arctic or the increasingly depleting ozone later or simply because the suave Al-Gore has managed to convince us with his Inconvenient Truths? It could be any one of these global reasons or it could just be due to a personal experience that directly impacted your life. The fact is that the awareness is growing and it has expanded from NGOs initiating strikes and lobbying for causes with their placards and has even seeped into other industries such as financial industries where sustainable financing and banking are the new catch-phrases. Delving into the green initiatives in Malaysia, we see the efforts and support that the government has put into realising the green concept in the country. Malaysia gazetted the Environmental Quality (Industrial Effluent) Regulations, Environmental Quality (Sewage) Regulations and Environmental Quality (Control of Pollution from solid waste transfer stations and Landfill) in 2009. Further to this, Malaysia pledged to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 40% by 2020. The seriousness of the Malaysian government’s intentions towards climate change and the need for energy security and green technology, ultimately led to the...

...2012 International Conference on Traffic and Transportation Engineering (ICTTE 2012) IPCSIT vol. 26 (2012) © (2012) IACSIT Press, Singapore Private Vehicle Ownership and Transportation Planning in Malaysia Noresah Mohd Shariff + School of Distance Education Universiti Sains Malaysia, 11800 Penang Malaysia Abstract. This paper analyzes current trends in private vehicle ownership in Malaysia. For the past decades private vehicle ownership has increased tremendously in this country which is partly due to the economic growth, rapid urban development, population growth and inadequate public transport availability and services. In 2010, Malaysia has a population of 28.3 million, 17.4 million private vehicle automobiles and 11.7 million registered drivers. Traditionally, income has been hypothesized as a major determinant of private vehicle ownership. However, the spatial arrangement of urban fabric has becoming more important determinant of owning a vehicle. Other determinants such as government policy, auto vehicle financing, household characteristics and travel characteristics are also important. Therefore this paper is analyzing the spatial determinants of private vehicle ownership in Malaysia with a special reference to the Penang Island. Penang Island is located on the northeastern region of Malaysia and is an industrialized and a highly developed island. Penang Island has a population of 575,498 in 2000 and 740,200 in 2010, an increase of 29 percent for the last 10 years...

...Foreign Direct Assessment: Analyzing the Mobility of FDI Models in Emerging Markets Kyle Himmelwright & Damian Zaccaria, Villanova Business School In this article, the authors will explore foreign direct investment in emerging markets. Applying a two prong investment model, they’ll assess three emerging Southeast Asian marketplaces; Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia. Additionally, they’ll explore the impact a variety of explicit and implicit factors have on the outcome. The research will indicate which of the three markets has the most potential for investment. Keywords: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), emerging markets, investment, economic factors, growth, defense Foreign direct investment (FDI) plays a prominent and growing role in the global marketplace. FDI is defined as an investment made by a company or entity based in another country. The investment provides the firm with an opportunity to access new markets and marketing channels, cheaper production facilities, access to new technology, products, skills and financing (Goingglobal.com 2015). Accurately assessing marketplace factors is essential when evaluating whether to invest in a foreign market, especially when it comes to making decisions requiring foresight and conviction. “The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small anymore. It will be the fast beating the slow.” Rupert Murdoch’s quote concisely illustrates the current state of the global marketplace; it simply isn't as big as...

As noted by the World Bank (1992), housing investment typically accounts for 2% to 8% of GNP, and the flow of housing services for an additional 5% to 10% of GNP. Residential real estate represents around 30% of world wealth, greater than both bonds (27%) and equities (19%). Residential construction is a major employer often accounting for more than 5% of total employment. Housing is an important economic sector with linkages to the real and financial parts of the economy. A healthy housing industry is critical to the nation’s economy and more specifically the sustainability of its financial system. The New Economic Policy (NEP) in Malaysia to a certain extent has achieved its objective in income distribution and in urbanisation as well. By comparison with other countries, Malaysia has achieved its distributive objectives. The...

...writing guide Guideline I. Introduction writing guide A significant aspect of China is its long cultural and national history. The Chinese people have shared a common culture longer than any other group on Earth. The Chinese writing system, for example, dates back almost 4,000 years. The imperial dynastic system of government, which continued for centuries, was established as early as 221 BC. Although specific dynasties were overturned, the dynastic system survived. China was even ruled at times by foreign invaders, such as the Mongols during the Yuan Dynasty, from AD 1279 to 1368, and the Manchus during the Ch'ing Dynasty, from AD 1644 to 1911, but the foreigners were largely absorbed into the culture they governed. It is as if the Roman Empire had lasted from the time of the Caesars to the 20th century, and during that time had evolved a cultural system and written language shared by all the peoples of Europe. The dynastic system was overturned in 1911, and a weak republican form of government existed until 1949. In that year, after a long civil war, the People's Republic of China, with a Communist government, was proclaimed. This government and the ruling Communist party have controlled China ever since. Although the dynastic system has disappeared, the People's Republic occupies essentially the same territory and governs the same people. If anything, the culture and power of China seem stronger in the late 20th century than at almost any other period in history. Under...

...Proton: Its Rise, Fall, and Future Prospects For Dato’ Haji Syed Zainal Abidin Tahir (Syed Zainal, hereafter), Managing Director of Proton, recent headlines such as “Auto Sector Faces Numerous Challenges” and “European Carmakers Zoom in”[1] were simply reminders of the challenges his company faced. Proton had been troubled by its declining share of the domestic auto market (Exhibit 1) and consequent dwindling profits and margins. Without taking into account the government’s R&D grant in 2007/2008, the company suffered three straight years of losses from 2007 to 2010. Its finances recovered a little in 2009/2010, thanks to the government’s “cash for clunkers” incentive programme, a MYR143 million (USD48 million)[2] R&D grant from the government, and some improvement in sales. However, its net profit margin barely reached 3% — very low by industry standards — and most of its performance measures lagged behind those of the industry leaders (Exhibits 2 and 3). The stock price of Proton’s listed parent, Proton Holdings Berhad (Proton Holdings Limited), had been substantially lower than its net asset value for several years (Exhibit 3). Because of its low market to book ratio and the heavy government subsidies paid to Proton, Mr. Syed Zainal was under tremendous pressure to turn around Proton’s performance. Adding further pressure, the changing institutional environment had exposed Proton’s inability to compete. Since 2005 when the government committed to reducing import tariffs...
