VIEWS ON STUDENT POLITICAL FREEDOM POST-UUCA AMENDMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF UNDI18: A CASE STUDY OF PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES IN SOUTHERN MALAYSIA

In the 65 years since gaining independence, Malaysia’s political landscape has seen significant growth in student activism, particularly in terms of student political freedom in public universities. The 1960s and 1970s were regarded as the golden age of student movements in Malaysia, marking the peak of student political freedom. However, the enactment of the Universities and University Colleges Act 1971 (UUCA) suppressed all political activities by students. Recently, two important developments took place, namely the amendment of UUCA in 2019, which has allowed students to engage in political activities inside and outside the campus, and the implementation of Undi18, which has rekindled students’ political freedom. This study examines the views and understanding of the informants regarding the concept and practice of student political freedom. This study also highlights the existing values associated with student political freedom. The research design employed in this article is qualitative and conducted through a case study. We interviewed 15 informants from Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia, Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia, and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. The concept of student political freedom was perceived as encompassing freedom of speech, freedom of associations, and the right to vote. Current practices of student political freedom include the use of social media platforms, political participation, and the formation of associations. In terms of student political freedom, the informants emphasised values of social responsibility, integrity, and intellectualism. In essence, this study presents findings on the current political scene in public universities post-UUC amendment and the passing of Undi18 bill, which purportedly create a more conducive democratic space for student political freedom.

Understanding of Economic Student on the Relationship between Green Supply Chain Management and Sustainability

Purpose: This research collects primary data on how well economic students at colleges in Can Tho, Vietnam comprehend how green supply chain management (GSCM) affects sustainability performance. Methodology: This research examines five GSCM factors—internal environmental management, green procurement, green manufacturing, green distribution, and environmental education—and three sustainability performance characteristics (economic, environmental, and social performance). Exploratory trials and a literature review on GSCM and sustainability performance lead to this model. Using a questionnaire, 534 participants provided primary data. Based on a structural equation model, SPSS and AMOS 22.0 analysed the data quantitatively and descriptively (SEM). Findings: GSCM affects sustainability performance differently. Green procurement affects economic, environmental, and social performance. Internal environmental management impacts environmental and social performance.

Local Self-Government as the Factor of Restoration of the Ukrainian Economy

The purpose of the article is to identify the leading factors for the recovery of the Ukrainian economy, using the resources of local government. Research methodology includes: historical, system-structural and comparative studies (to understand the successful experience of developing economically selfsufficient local self-government); monographic analysis (when studying the leading socio-economic factors in the formation of effective local and territorial communities); statistical and economic analysis (when assessing the potential of local communities in the economic processes of the country). Scientific novelty. It has been revealed that in the modern world the formation of economically self-sufficient local communities is an extremely complex and longterm process, which depends not only on the local community, local government, but also on the balanced policy of the central authorities. Unlike most countries in the world, Ukraine has gone through a difficult path of reforms to form effective, economically self-sufficient territorial communities. It is proved that a number of laws, legislative initiatives and regulations in Ukraine significantly oppress local self-government; and it is also noted that political structures and parties in Ukraine, working in local governments, do not always contribute to the development of territorial communities. It is proposed to carry out appropriate comprehensive reforms: 1) to strengthen the transparency, responsibility and institutional capacity of state authorities and local self-government in their accountability to society; 2) intensify the reform of judicial, law enforcement and regulatory bodies of state power, local self-government, carry out maximum digitalization, introduce a system of efficiency and reduce discretion; 3) to carry out real deoligarchization and bring big business to the values of social responsibility in Ukrainian society; 4) to form measures to transfer the economy and society to greater innovation and creative values; 5) launch infrastructure reform; 6) reform social and family values. Conclusions. The communities that received resources and great powers basically did not realize their economic potential. The asymmetry of the economic development of the regions of Ukraine over the past 9-10 years has only intensified. The reason is a significant number of laws and regulations that are contrary to the interests or do not allow to reveal the potential of local communities. Such problems can be resolved at the legislative level, taking into account the needs of local communities. In addition, opacity, corruption, and inconsistency in the actions of local and state authorities are often manifested; therefore, the author’s proposals for reform (6 points) are the key to the formation of economically successful and self-sufficient communities. Key words: local communities, local self-government, local self-government economy, regional economy, organization of local self-government in the global economy.

Opportunity costs and the value of corporate social responsibility: evidence from firm dividend policy

ABSTRACT Theories of CSR value under a real-option framework suggest that the payment of dividends serves as an opportunity cost. One of the resulting predictions is that the value of CSR spending is lower for dividend paying firms. We examine this prediction empirically. While we find that CSR is positively related to firm value for both dividend payers and non-payers, CSR is roughly 50% less valuable to dividend payers than non-dividend payers.

CSR has become an important concept in modern business as more and more companies recognize the importance of ethical and sustainable business practices. One important aspect of CSR is the socially responsible identity (SRI).

When individuals and organizations have a strong SRI, they are more likely to engage in socially responsible behaviors. Research has shown that SRI can play a mediating role in the relationship between CSR and organizational performance.
