The Appreciation of Ethics and Civilization [Penghayatan Etika dan Peradaban], also known as PEP, was introduced in 2019. The course aims to educate students on the concept of good ethics in daily life and to help them appreciate the variety possible in society among Malaysians. However, there are some issues related to the PEP content which needs further review. This study tries to identify the elements that contribute to the effectiveness of the course, focusing on the content of the course from the university student and educators’ perspectives. The study used a combined quantitative and qualitative method involving 1,837 bachelor’s degree Malaysian students. For the qualitative study, a focus group discussion was conducted involving eight educators. For the respondents who were students, four groups...

Overwhelming workload, multiple roles at home, elderly care giving and so forth worsen the situation. These factors may influence their emotional well-being and their life satisfaction. This article therefore has two objectives, which are to identify the differences in life satisfaction among middle-aged Malay women from different educational level, marital status, career and income, and to identify the profile of middle-aged women who have low life satisfaction level. This study adopted the survey technique, which employed the Life Satisfaction Index AShort Form by Barrette and Murk. Simple random sampling and purposive sampling have been used to obtain the responses. A total of 410 middle aged career women in Hulu Langat, Selangor have participated in this study. The finding showed that life satisfactions among middle-aged wom...

Kaunseling merupakan satu proses interaksi bersemuka dalam bentuk membimbing, menolong dan membantu antara dua pihak. Bidang kaunseling dan kerja sosial mempunyai sejarahnya yang tersendiri. Kedua-dua bidang ini bermula dan berkembang sebagai satu disiplin ilmu di Barat. Kompetensi pengamal kedua-dua bidang ini juga dipantau oleh badan yang dibentuk. Teori kerja sosial dan kaunseling berkongsi laluan pembangunan yang sama iaitu daripada bidang psikologi dan sosiologi.

The impacts of inadequate funding on NGOs include interruptions of service provision, changes in objectives and priorities, enhanced donor influence and changes in organisational culture. These issues impact local NGOs, who usually depend on donors to support their operations. This paper aims to provide a conceptual explanation of one of the main issues of NGO sustainability, namely funding sustainability and focuses on potential strategies devised to suit the Malaysian context. Based on library research, this paper identified strategies commonly pursued by NGOs to pursue sustainability, particularly funding sustainability. Six strategies were identified: enhancing credibility and visibility, implementing cost-efficient measures, building organisational capacity, diversifying sources of income, encouraging volunteerism and forming collaborations and coalitions. The majority of these strategies have been put into practice elsewhere, but they must be adapted to fit welfare-oriented NGOs in a Malaysian context. NGOs are continuously adopting a growing range of strategies; the ones highlighted in this article are not an exhaustive list. However, they provide an overview of viable strategies that can influence an organisation's financial sustainability and service provision in the long run. These strategies could give policymakers, organisation leaders and social work managers initial guidelines for creating a suitable strategy for NGOs to achieve financial sustainability in a Malaysian context.
