Perlaksanaan Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) oleh kerajaan sejak 18 Mac 2020 mengakibatkan implikasi yang besar kepada kehidupan golongan mudah terjejas atau B40 khususnya bagi pekerja harian yang tiada gaji, buruh upahan dan pekerja kontrak didapati sukar dan berhadapan dengan tekanan ekoran sumber pendapatan yang terputus. Sumber pendapatan yang tidak menentu dan terjejas ekoran daripada situasi getir ini menyebabkan mereka perlahan-lahan menjadi golongan miskin. Kekurangan tabungan dan pemilikan aset kehidupan yang dimiliki memberikan kesan dan tekanan untuk mereka berhadapan dengan situasi yang cukup mencabar. Kehilangan sumber pendapatan, terputus bekalan makanan sepanjang tempoh ini juga merubah warna kehidupan mereka. Sehubungan dengan itu, monograf ini menyingkap aspek jaminan makanan golongan B40 secara khusus dalam mengharungi detik sukar berhadapan dengan pandemik yang sedang melanda dunia.
Materials and Technologies for Future Advancement
This book is a platform to publish new progress in the field of materials and technologies that can offer significant developments with the possibility of changing the future. These emerging developments will change the way we live now at an unprecedented pace across our society. It is important to note that such modern developments are no longer restricted to a single discipline, but are the outcome of a multidisciplinary approach, which combines many different engineering disciplines. This book explores the new technology landscape that will have the direct impact on production-related sectors, individually and in combination with different disciplines. A major driver for this actual research is the efficiency, many times connected with a focus on environmental sustainability.
Hard to Swallow
Hard To Swallow has become a much used play in schools across the globe. This play, an adaptation of Maureen Dunbar’s award winning book and film “Catherine”, charts her daughter’s uneven battle with anorexia and the family’s difficulties in coping with it all. “This play reaches moments of almost unbearable intensity… naturalistic scenes flow seamlessly into sequences of highly stylised theatre… such potent theatre!” Vera Lustig, The Independent “HARD TO SWALLOW uses simple narrative and a series of stylised visual tableaux to build a powerful and sometimes harrowing chronicle of Catherine’s long and ultimately unsuccessful fight against anorexia nervosa... uncompromising and sensitive... its ability to raise our awareness of a condition about which we remain woefully ignorant defines it as an important piece of work... it should be compulsory viewing for anyone connected with the education of teenagers.” Mick Martin: Times Educational Supplement

Educating the Gifted and Talented
Following the publication of the House of Commons Education Select Committee Report in 1999, the Department of Education and Employment has set up a number of initiatives, including Excellence in Cities, to address the problematic issues relating to provision for gifted and talented pupils in primary and secondary schools. This book rehearses and develops further the central idea put forward by the authors in the first edition titled Educating Able Children that teachers remain the essential resource to ensure appropriate provision for gifted and talented pupils. They suggest ways in which teachers may become an effective and efficient resource; consider how teachers might take advantage of current initiatives to facilitate their own professional development; provide ideas at classroom, departmental and school level to facilitate appropriate provision, and include a comprehensive and up to date list of resources.
Economic Evaluation of Dispensing Separation Policy in Malaysia: A Decision Analysis Approach (Penerbit USM)
The separation of dispensing from doctor or what is simply called dispensing separation is a holty debated health policy proposition in Malaysia but rarely discussed. Each time the issue resurfaced, emotional opposition took place and extinguish the discussion of an important policy change that is long overdue in Malaysia. Consequently, both policy markers and the public are deprived of rational arguments for the policy. This book reported an economic evaluation study that has evaluated the benefit of dispensing separation policy from a Malaysian societal perspective using a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) framework. In the absence of empirical data or controlled trial on the policy, the study has also applied a decision modeling approach that make use of empirical data from published studies. This is the first time suach an approach was used in addressing this issue and we feel that this would have appeal not only to Malaysian policy, but also to other countries that are also contemplating such change.
