Malaysia requires a large group of skilled workers to build, expand and eventually sustain its economic growth to become a high-income country. However, current TVET institutions in Malaysia are far from being able to supply Malaysia with sufficient skilled workers in the future. This may be due to negative perceptions of the public regarding work-life balance and well-being when choosing TVET as a career pathway. Therefore, it is important to determine if TVET jobs are inferior to conventionally educated jobs in terms of family satisfaction, which refers to perceptions of family quality such as solidarity, happiness, and overall relational well-being. In this study, surveys distributed to 160 TVET graduates and 160 conventionally educated graduates are analysed using PLS-SEM analysis and PLS-SEM multigroup analysis. SmartPLS software version 3.2.7 was used for this research. The findings show that TVET jobs are no worse than conventionally educated graduates jobs in terms of family satisfaction.
马来西亚需要大批技术工人来建设、扩大并最终维持其经济增长,以成为一个高收入国家。然而,马来西亚目前的TVET机构远远不能在未来为马来西亚提供足够的技术工人。这可能是由于公众在选择职业技术教育作为职业道路时对工作与生活的平衡和福祉的负面看法。因此,就家庭满意度而言,确定职业技术教育职业是否不如传统教育职业是很重要的,家庭满意度指的是对家庭质量的感知,如团结、幸福和整体关系幸福感。本研究对160名职业技术教育毕业生和160名传统教育毕业生的调查问卷进行了PLS-SEM分析和PLS-SEM多组分析。本研究采用SmartPLS软件3.2.7版本。调查结果显示,就家庭满意度而言,职业技术教育工作者的工作并不比传统教育毕业生的工作差。

Perceived Overqualification Repatriates: Post Hoc Analysis for Traditional and Alternative Forms 被认为资历过高的遣返:传统形式和替代形式的事后分析
Pub Date : 2022-06-25 DOI: 10.24191/jibe.v7i1.18659
Repatriates perceived the discrepancy in utilizing their enhanced international experiences upon returning home, resulting in them being perceived as being overqualified, and led to low retention rates. Besides long-term international assignments, the literature on repatriation of alternative forms of international assignment have increased in popularity. Using the snowball sampling technique, a total of 147 returned questionnaires from Malaysian repatriates were valid after data screening. The SmartPLS 3.0 software was applied to conduct structural model analysis and multi-group analysis. It appears that repatriates who perceived that they were overqualified, often exhibited a low affective commitment and high continuance commitment. Beyond that, the impact of the perceived overqualification was prominent among traditional repatriates, as opposed to the alternative form of repatriates, based on the post-hoc findings. This study drew on the relative deprivation theory, and highlighted that a proxy for successful repatriation was to reduce the repatriate’s deprivation, in order to maintain affective and continuance commitment of repatriates. Therefore, this study acknowledges the emerging notion and believe that the post-hoc findings should put the organization on alert, to help maintain the organizational commitment of their valuable repatriates upon returning from both types of international assignments.
回国人员认为回国后在利用其加强的国际经验方面存在差异,导致他们被认为资历过高,并导致保留率低。除了长期国际外派外,关于其他形式国际外派回国的文献也越来越受欢迎。采用滚雪球抽样技术,经数据筛选,共收到147份马来西亚遣返者的有效问卷。采用SmartPLS 3.0软件进行结构模型分析和多组分析。认为自己资历过高的回国人员似乎往往表现出较低的情感承诺和较高的继续承诺。除此之外,根据事后调查结果,在传统的回国人员中,与其他形式的回国人员相比,认为资格过高的影响是突出的。这项研究借鉴了相对剥夺理论,并强调成功遣返的代表是减少被遣返者的剥夺,以维持被遣返者的情感和持续承诺。因此,本研究承认新出现的概念,并认为事后调查结果应使本组织提高警惕,以帮助维持组织对从这两种国际任务中返回的宝贵回国人员的承诺。

Factors Associated with Household Expenditure on Meat: Evidence from Malaysia 与家庭肉类消费相关的因素:来自马来西亚的证据
Pub Date : 2022-06-25 DOI: 10.24191/jibe.v7i1.18664
The objective of the present study is to examine sociodemographic and household factors associated with expenditure on meat among households in Malaysia. A seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) was utilised to analyse the associations between household expenditure on fresh and processed meat, and household heads’ sociodemographic and household characteristics. Compared to households headed by younger individuals, households headed by older individuals spent more on fresh meat. Households with less-educated heads spent less on fresh and processed meats than households with well-educated heads. Larger households and households headed by employed individuals spent more on processed meat compared with smaller households and households headed by unemployed individuals. Urban households spent less on fresh meat but spent more on processed meat relative to rural households. Meat consumption expenditure varies significantly across sociodemographic and household factors. Findings of the present study are useful in formulation of policy to reduce meat consumption expenditure.
本研究的目的是研究马来西亚家庭中与肉类支出有关的社会人口和家庭因素。使用看似不相关的回归(SUR)来分析家庭在新鲜和加工肉类上的支出与家庭户主的社会人口统计学和家庭特征之间的关系。与年轻人户主的家庭相比,老年人户主的家庭在鲜肉上花费更多。家长受教育程度较低的家庭在新鲜肉类和加工肉类上的花费低于家长受教育程度较高的家庭。规模较大的家庭和以就业人员为户主的家庭在加工肉类上的支出高于规模较小的家庭和以失业人员为户主的家庭。与农村家庭相比,城市家庭在鲜肉上的支出较少,但在加工肉类上的支出更多。肉类消费支出因社会人口和家庭因素而有显著差异。本研究的结果对制定减少肉类消费开支的政策有帮助。

Public Capital and Economic Growth Dynamics in Nigeria 尼日利亚的公共资本和经济增长动态
Pub Date : 2022-06-25 DOI: 10.24191/jibe.v7i1.18662
Using annual time series data covering the period 1981 to 2017, this paper investigates the relationship between public capital investment and economic growth in Nigeria using the General to Specific (GETS) approach. The empirical findings reveal that public capital and labour force have a detrimental impact on economic growth. The study also discovered that private capital and growth are positively related. The Granger causality tests, on the other hand, unveil that both bidirectional and unidirectional causal linkages. As a result, these findings suggest that infrastructure development should be emphasized through public-private partnerships and a favourable investment climate to stimulate private sector investment to sustain long-term economic growth should be improved.
本文利用1981年至2017年的年度时间序列数据,采用一般到具体(GETS)方法研究了尼日利亚公共资本投资与经济增长之间的关系。实证结果表明,公共资本和劳动力对经济增长具有不利影响。研究还发现,私人资本与经济增长呈正相关。另一方面,格兰杰因果检验揭示了双向和单向的因果关系。因此,这些研究结果表明,应通过公私伙伴关系强调基础设施发展,并应改善有利的投资环境,以刺激私营部门投资以维持长期经济增长。

Pub Date : 2022-06-25 DOI: 10.24191/jibe.v7i1.18669
The effects of Total Quality Management (TQM) on employees’ job satisfaction has been studied extensively in worldwide. However, the studies about the effects of TQM and job satisfaction can still be explored. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of TQM on job satisfaction. Five hypotheses were developed in this paper. This study is useful to the top management in the public sector as a guide to improve their current employees’ capabilities and organization performance. It is also can improve the quality of work, indirectly improve the productivity of employees at their organization. This study was a cross-sectional study. A stratified sampling technique was used in collecting data from 261 employees in Majlis Bandaraya Melaka Bersejarah (MBMB). The results of the study supported only three from five hypotheses. Accordingly, top management commitment and reward and recognition are the most influential factors of TQM practices towards employee’ job satisfaction.
全面质量管理(TQM)对员工工作满意度的影响在国际上得到了广泛的研究。然而,关于TQM对工作满意度影响的研究仍有待探索。本研究的目的是研究全面质量管理对工作满意度的影响。本文提出了五个假设。本研究对公共部门高层管理人员提高现有员工的能力和组织绩效具有指导意义。它也可以提高工作质量,间接提高员工在他们的组织的生产力。这项研究是一项横断面研究。采用分层抽样技术对马六甲人民议会(MBMB)的261名雇员进行数据收集。这项研究的结果只支持了五个假设中的三个。因此,高层管理者的承诺和奖励与认可是TQM实践对员工工作满意度影响最大的因素。

COVID-19 Cases, Deaths, Vaccinations and Malaysian Islamic Stock Market Returns COVID-19病例、死亡、疫苗接种和马来西亚伊斯兰股票市场回报
Pub Date : 2022-06-25 DOI: 10.24191/jibe.v7i1.18660
Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been the greatest disrupting pandemic that results in economy and social devastations. This study aims to explore the impact of novel COVID-19 pandemic on Islamic stock market returns in Malaysia. We find that COVID-19 new cases exert negative and significant effect on Islamic stock market returns. In addition, COVID-19 deaths significantly and adversely influence Islamic stock market returns. Particularly, the findings reveal that higher levels of COVID-19 new cases and deaths tend to reduce Islamic stock returns in Malaysia. Interestingly, we document that vaccinations have no impact in influencing Islamic stock market returns, signifying that vaccinations are not effective in improving Islamic stock market returns in Malaysia over the sample period. Our findings provide important implications for academics, policymakers and investors to comprehend the effect of COVID-19 on Islamic stock returns. The results suggest that Islamic stock investments in Malaysia do not show as a superior investment option during the health crisis.
冠状病毒(COVID-19)是造成经济和社会破坏的最具破坏性的大流行病。本研究旨在探讨新型冠状病毒病疫情对马来西亚伊斯兰股票市场收益的影响。我们发现,新发病例对伊斯兰股市收益有显著负向影响。此外,COVID-19死亡对伊斯兰股票市场的回报产生了重大不利影响。特别是,调查结果显示,更高水平的COVID-19新病例和死亡人数往往会降低马来西亚的伊斯兰股票回报。有趣的是,我们证明接种疫苗对影响伊斯兰股票市场回报没有影响,这表明在样本期间接种疫苗对提高马来西亚伊斯兰股票市场回报无效。我们的研究结果为学者、政策制定者和投资者理解COVID-19对伊斯兰股票回报的影响提供了重要启示。结果表明,在健康危机期间,马来西亚的伊斯兰股票投资并不是一个优越的投资选择。

This study aims to explore the impact of novel COVID-19 pandemic on Islamic stock market returns in Malaysia. We find that COVID-19 new cases exert negative and significant effect on Islamic stock market returns. In addition, COVID-19 deaths significantly and adversely influence Islamic stock market returns. Particularly, the findings reveal that higher levels of COVID-19 new cases and deaths tend to reduce Islamic stock returns in Malaysia. Interestingly, we document that vaccinations have no impact in influencing Islamic stock market returns, signifying that vaccinations are not effective in improving Islamic stock market returns in Malaysia over the sample period. Our findings provide important implications for academics, policymakers and investors to comprehend the effect of COVID-19 on Islamic stock returns. The results suggest that Islamic stock investments in Malaysia do not show as a superior investment option during the health crisis.","PeriodicalId":258234,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Business, Economics and Entrepreneurship","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132938701","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}
