Kajian jatidiri dan tekanan isu sosio-emosi dalam kalangan pelajar pintar dan berbakat
Pembinaan jati diri generasi remaja amat penting bagi memacu kecemerlangan pembangunan negara. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji tahap jati diri peribadi dan hubungannya dengan tekanan sosio-emosi pelajar Pintar dan Berbakat di Malaysia. Seramai 194 orang pelajar dari Pusat PERMATApintar Negara UKM dipilih secara rawak untuk memberi respon kepada dua soal selidik kajian, iaitu Instrumen Jati diri Pelajar mengandungi 72 item dan Instrumen Tekanan Sosio-emosi, mengandungi 60 item. Pelajar memberi respon menggunakan skala likert 5-mata. Analisis statistik deskriptif dan inferensi digunakan untuk menentukan skor min dan nilai korelasi di antara pemboleh ubah (SPSS versi 19.0). Hasil dapatan menunjukkan min Jati diri adalah tinggi (3.86, nilai sp 6.41) dan tekanan sosio-emosi adalah sederhana (2.71, nilai sp: 7.39). Daripada lima komponen jati diri yang dikaji, jati diri kerohanian memperoleh skor min tertinggi (4.13), manakala komponen jati diri kepimpinan memperoleh skor min terendah (3.63). Bagi tekanan sosio-emosi pula, tekanan keadilan sosial memperoleh min tertinggi (4.13) manakala komponen tekanan hubungan keluarga memperoleh min terendah (2.09). Analisis korelasi Person r menunjukkan terdapat hubungan negatif yang signifikan di antara jati diri dan tekanan sosio-emosi dalam kalangan pelajar pintar dan berbakat. Implikasi terhadap kecekapan peranan perkhidmatan Bimbingan dan Kaunseling untuk pelajar pintar dan berbakat turut dibincangkan
Corporate governance and the extent of directors' remuneration disclosure
This study aims to investigate the extent of Malaysian directors’ remuneration disclosure in the annual reports. In addition, this research seeks to examine the relationship between corporate governance structure and the disclosure practices of directors’ remuneration. We measure the extent of directors’ remuneration disclosure by the following four measures – the disclosure of individual pay for each director, band of pay, linkage to performance, and components of pay. Drawing on agency theory, we expect that the extent of directors’ remuneration disclosure is positively associated with the independence of boards of directors, audit committees and remuneration committees. In addition, we expect an inverse relationship between directors’ remuneration disclosure and ownership structure. The annual reports of 376 companies listed on Bursa Malaysia are randomly selected and analyzed.The results reveal that most of the sampled firms communicate information about the directors’ pay in bands of RM50,000, together with the narration of linkages between the directors’ pay and performance in their annual reports.Not many companies disclose information about individual directors’ pay, or separately disclose the salary and bonus components.In addition, the regression results suggest that the independent of board of director and remuneration committee are associated with disclosure of directors’ pay bands.Bigger firms are more likely to communicate individual director’s pay, and disclose salary and bonus components separately in their annual reports.The findings have important implication in understanding the disclosure practices of companies in relation to the directors’ remuneration
The Methods of Questioning in the Orientation Phase : A Review of Teaching Malaysian Gifted Learners in Reading Arabic Text
Differentiated instruction allows gifted individuals to develop their potential academic intelligence to the highest level independently. The authors suggest how to use methods of questioning in the orientation phase for teaching Malaysian Gifted Learners in comprehending Arabic text in the classroom.

The use of the orientation phase "is the starting points to ensure what learners learn, how they learn the lesson, and how the learners demonstrate what they have learned during the teaching and learning session.

Linkage disequilibrium suggests genomic stability in Omicron clades of SARS-CoV-2 from the ASEAN countries
After more than 2 years of pandemic caused by SARS-CoV2, COVID-19 is still a national concern in many countries
worldwide. One of the key investigations is to understand the
factors contributing to the evolutionary dynamics of SARS-CoV2 as a pathogen. Currently, almost all countries have lifted
border control orders and have allowed inter-country travel with
minimal restrictions. This provides better resolutions on genomic
patterns and the evolution of circulating SARS-CoV-2 in each
community with the influence of imported strains.
In this report, we surveyed genomes of SARS-CoV-2 strains
circulating in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations
(ASEAN) countries. This project serves as a collaborative effort
from the ASEAN Member States that had participated in the
programme ‘Strengthening Laboratory Capacity on COVID-19
