The low crime rate has been identified as a predictor of a calm, orderly, and secure neighborhood. Furthermore, a safe and secure environment is essential in encouraging investment and economic progress in a country. Crime statistics can help criminal justice professionals predict increased crime risk. This study, therefore, aims to compare the crime rate of two municipalities in the province of Sorsogon: Bulan Sorsogon and Irosin Sorsogon from the calendar year 2018 to 2020. This study used document analysis to analyze and compare the crime data in the Municipality of Bulan and Irosin Sorsogon. Data reflected that in the comparison of the two municipalities in the province, the Municipality of Bulan has the highest crime rate (61%) compared to the Municipality of Irosin which has a (39%) total crime rate. Data also revealed that the crime under special law was the most numbered crime committed with (253) total in the five parameters of crime in both municipalities. Interestingly crime against property was (32) total crimes committed in both municipalities, showing a low number of crimes based on the record. Hence, the police may continue to collaborate closely with many community sectors to guarantee the seamless implementation of its programs and projects to protect public safety and security Information awareness campaigns in any form like in any platform of social media in all their programs and projects may be made available in the community to increase awareness and support of stakeholders, especially in the far-flung areas in the municipality.

Critical Thinking skills sum up the proficiencies needed for employment. Critical Thinking skills especially Soft skills are identified as a job barrier in Malaysia. Employers assert that our graduates lack Soft skills, thus in 2006, the Malaysian government introduces and encourages the use of Soft skills, which include communication skills, problem-solving and thinking skills, continuous learning skills and information management skills, work in group skills, leadership skills, entrepreneurship skills, and professional ethics. This study focuses on the Soft skills for graduates’ employability through three objectives: to investigate the Soft skills needed by graduates, to determine whether graduates have the soft skills required for employment and whether these skills are being taught at university. The research methodology consists of a survey aimed at lecturers at the Language Centre, National Defence University of Malaysia, using a mixed-method approach. The online survey contains both closed and open-ended questions and is analyzed using SPSS v.25.0 and manual content analysis. Results indicate that the most desired Soft skills are Communication Skills, Problem Solving and Thinking Skills, and Teamwork Skills. Lecturers agree that graduates must be equipped with the Soft skills needed for employment and they perceive that these skills are taught at the university. The lecturers agree on the importance of Soft skills, and this is supported by the overall findings. This research suggests that higher educational institutions should teach Soft skills either through a course specifically for Soft skills or integrated into courses designed to meet employers’ needs.

This study was designed to explore the case of English teachers in teaching literature. Specifically, this study focused on: a) finding the reasons why teachers codeswitch when teaching English literature; b) the effect of codeswitch in learning a new lesson and in the practice of the English language. It made use of qualitative research and applied the case study approach with Colaizzi as a method of analysis. Three (3) teachers were interviewed and observed, and eight (8) students were used for the focus group discussion (FGD). The study revealed that teachers codeswitch to facilitate understanding among learners. The study also uncovered that codeswitching affects learners by igniting their interest and hindering their fluency in the English language. Hence, code-switching should be used sparingly to help learners improve their English language communication skills Since there are limitations of the study, it is therefore recommended that the next researchers should have an in-depth exploration of a certain case, consider the wider scope of the study, and conduct more readings related to the study.

The creativity models and approaches promote high-quality creativity and innovation to improve organizational performance. Extensive studies exist in the literature on creativity and innovation. However, relatively fewer studies have explored how team creativity affects project performance. Therefore, the present study tries to reveal how team creativity impacts project outcomes by using the Bootstrap-Based Method and Process. The results reveal that the relationship between project technological capacity and project performance is significantly stronger when team creativity is higher. Hence, the findings show that team creativity enhances the potential project performance. Moreover, the findings also reveal that team creativity negatively moderates the relationship between project technological capacity and project performance. This suggests that the positive relationship between project technological capacity and performance becomes stronger when team creativity weakens. A possible explanation of this negative moderation is that project technological capacity and team creativity do not have a linear relationship; rather, it is curvilinear. Future research should clarify this negative moderating influence on team creativity.

Enterprises face several obstacles in an interconnected world with dynamic and uncertain business climates. Volatility has become one of the greatest threats to the resiliency of companies but might also offer an opportunity. They must exert effort to be resilient by implementing proactive risk management. This study investigates the influence of Risk Management Practices (RMP) on Enterprise Resilience (ER) across state-owned companies (SOEs) in Indonesia, as well as the moderating role of alliance management capabilities (AMCs) on the relationship between RMP and ER. The Indonesian SOEs would be the units of analysis of the study due to their importance to the Indonesian economy and the scarcity of research on resilience and risk management in SOEs in emerging economies. The research utilized online surveys of SOE board members. Three hundred twenty-two valid responses are analyzed using PLS-SEM. The study indicated that RMP has a significant effect on ER. Leadership Capabilities (LC) mediates the link between RMP and ER. This research contributes to limited literature that integrates AMCs, RMPs, and ER through the perspective of dynamic capability theory and is done using a unique sample of SOEs from emerging countries. The results offer policymakers and SOE management recommendations for enhancing SOEs' sustainability.

Religious leaders are considered respected members of the community and they could bring an end to fighting because of their honesty and soft power resources. In this context, the present study deals with the role of religious leaders in conflict resolution. A sample size of 361 respondents was selected in the district Dir Lower Tahsil Maidan through Random Sampling Technique. Chi-square X2 statistics were used to determine the association between independent and dependent variables. Most respondents (52.1%) stated that religious leaders in Pashtun cultures symbolize peace. Similarly, more than two third of the respondents (70.9%) endorsed that religious leaders do resolve conflict by taking inputs from religious and cultural values. Most of the respondents (58.4%) opined that the participation of religious leaders is considered necessary in jirga/ culture base peacemaking. Moreover, Religious leaders among Pashtuns are considering customary leaders, having a strong influence over Pashtun costumes, and were found significant in conflict resolution respectively. The study concluded that religious leadership among Pashtun had always contributed positively to conflict resolution. The study also recommends that government should give more attention to involving religious leaders in conflict resolution and peacebuilding processes. This needs to integrate all sorts of leadership at the community level, which would boost their level of understanding regarding each other.

This research study deals with the role of media in provoking sectarian violence. Using Random sampling techniques, a sample size of 279 respondents was selected in the district of Hangu Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Besides sample frequency distribution, chi-square statistics were used to determine the association between independent and dependent variables. The majority of respondents, 262(93.9%), stated that peace is in high demand for people in the area. Similarly, 240 (86.0%) of the respondents argued that without peace, cooperation, and coordination among people is difficult to prevail. Likewise, most respondents, 182 (65.2%), believed that people start fighting over minor issues. Furthermore, at the bivariate level, media can destroy peace at any time (p= .031) was found to be significant with peace in the area. The media has changed the individual mind, and its thoughts (p=.003) were highly substantial with peace in the region. Social Media plays an essential role in peacemaking (p=.000) had a highly significant association with peace in the area. The study concluded that media have a tremendous influence on the stability in the region. It can cultivate hatred between Shia and Sunni on either side, which generates endless conflict between the two sects. The study recommends that the government and concerned authorities confine the broadcasting of media channels and print media activities on factless and sensitive issues which cause the escalation of sectarian conflict between Shia and Sunni in Pakistan. Coordination and cooperation among rival groups can further strengthen the peace process in the area.

Since housing ranks second in the hierarchy of human needs, real estate development and the housing crisis have taken on a significant dimension today. In Abuja, Nigeria, several elements have an impact on these issues. Real estate development may evoke various feelings, depending on one's perspective. Several factors are considered a problem for housing ownership and property development. This study analyzes the problems associated with housing ownership and property development in Abuja, Nigeria. The study used quantitative research; 121 questionnaires were given to real estate developers, and 77 were retrieved and used for analysis. According to the study's findings, the following factors are known to affect residential property development: access to land, funding, exorbitant building material costs, corruption, government policy, high capital costs, high labor costs, Cost of land, mortgage interest rate, building costs, perception of buyers' lack of price control, and household expenditures are further factors. Factors impacting affordability are revealed to be mostly outside of the control of the landowner but are still subject to government regulation. As a result, to provide a solution for this element, the government must improve the welfare of its population concerning housing.

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on children’s education worldwide, albeit with different impacts. Children in impoverished families have to suffer the direst impacts from a lack of access to education, public health, food and various forms of threats. In Thailand, the first confirmed COVID-19 infection was identified in January 2020. The government eventually imposed the Emergency Decree on Public Administration in the State of Emergency (the Emergency Decree) in March 2020, to put in place social distancing and closure of schools, among other things. In May the Thai government also introduced “online learning” in an effort to continue the education of children. Such “online learning” hinges on using homes as a base to provide learning. This article is an attempt to analyze the impacts of such “online learning” policies on the accumulation of human capital among the second-generation of migrant children in the context of the urban poor in the city of Chiang Mai. This analysis is based on data acquired from the research on “The adaptation of second-generation Shan migrant children through education in Thailand”. The paper analyzes 13 migrant families whose children studied at Grades 6 and 9 at municipal schools in Chiang Mai city. Semi-structured interviews were employed to collect data from representatives of 13 migrant families during August and September 2020. It was found that the announced online learning was not implemented effectively because most of the children’s homes lacked resources to access online learning tools. Such findings indicate a structural problem in which the Thai authorities make the migrant workers vulnerable in terms of economic citizenship and public health at the expense of their children’s education. Such workers and families are forced to stay outside the public welfare, security and social safety net both before and in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.

Semi-structured interviews were employed to collect data from representatives of 13 migrant families during August and September 2020. It was found that the announced online learning was not implemented effectively because most of the children’s homes lacked resources to access online learning tools. Such findings indicate a structural problem in which the Thai authorities make the migrant workers vulnerable in terms of economic citizenship and public health at the expense of their children’s education. Such workers and families are forced to stay outside the public welfare, security and social safety net both before and in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis.","PeriodicalId":248834,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Humanities Research","volume":"7 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132090398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
