AbstrakSekolah mempunyai tanggungjawab besar sebagai agen penyatuan dan perpaduan. Peranan guru sebagai penggerak dan penyuntik elemen perpaduan dan kesediaan menerima perbezaan dalam kalangan pelajar amatlah penting. Kelangsungan kestabilan Negara terletak pada kelangsungan hubungan yang baik antara kaum. Jika hubungan ini terjejas, maka timpanglah bangsa dan Negara Malaysia. Kajian ini dilakukan untuk menilai kembali agenda hubungan etnik dalam pendidikan dengan objektif melihat peranan guru menjayakan konsep hubungan etnik kepada pelajar-pelajar Tingkatan 2 menggunakan Modul Kepelbagaian Budaya dengan memasukkan elemen etnisiti.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: The focus of this study is to unravel the conflict between British and Japanese investments in the Federation of Malaya from 1946 to 1956, after the Second World War. The method used in this study is based on the method of observation of the resources available in Libraries and the National Archives of Malaysia. After Japans defeat in the Second World War, on 15 August 1945, between the months of September 1945 until 1 April 1946, the British administration of Malaya back through the BMA (British Military Administration) with all Japanese assets in Malaya was placed under the British Custodian of Enemy Property. Meanwhile, the priority of the United States of America policy after the Second World War was to stop the spread of Communism during the Cold War. The United States of America saw Southeast Asia as a natural market for Japanese goods and a source of raw materials for the Japanese industry, also as an alternative to relations with the Chinese Communist government. The Federation of Malaya’s iron ore mining is considered important to the United States of America effort in connecting Japan and Southeast Asia. Although it led to friction with the British, but their main interest is to overcome the Communist threat in the region, especially from China. Japan did not indicate significant interest on the question of retrieving the whole importance of their economies to the extent as it did before the war, there was only an effort to recover their position in the Federation of Malaya’s iron ore mining.KEY WORDS: United States of America, British, economics interests, Japan, and Federation of Malaya government.    About the Authors: Dr. Uqbah Iqbal is a Research Scholar and Alumnus of School of History, Politics and Strategy, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities UKM (National University of Malaysia), UKM Campus, 43650 Bangi, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia.

This study discusses the historical development of Japanese investment in Malaysia between 1971 and 1980. The research is based on the examination method of the resources available in the library and the National Archives of Malaysia. The objective of the study is to see the patterns on the Japanese investment in Malaysia after the implementation of the NEP (New Economic Policy) in 1971. It is also the period of Tun Abdul Razak and Tun Hussein Onn administration. After 1970, Japanese investors began investing through joint venture with government organizations, such as the National Corporation Limited (PERNAS), Majlis Amanah Rakyat (MARA), and the Federal Land Development Authority (FELDA). This is in line with the NEP policy that emphasizes the participation of Bumiputera (Malay citizen). These agencies represent Bumiputera participation. Japanese investment in this period was in labour-intensive industries that involve cheap labour, raw material processing, and trade-related investment.KEY WORD: Investment, Japan, Malaysia, New Economic Policy, economic relations, joint ventures, and Bumiputera participation.IKHTISAR: “Sejarah Perkembangan Pelaburan Jepun di Malaysia, 1971 – 1980”.

Abstract

Integration is a process to create national identity in a society which is differs in culture, social matter, location that live in a political unit. The concept of national integration is actually a broad concept. From sociological perspective, the process of understanding can be explained as integration, as in political integration resulted from the efforts in cooperating and uniting the parties that have followers with various ideological background. The national integration process happens as the result of the needs to strengthen the harmony and security for a sovereign country. Malaysia, however, has taken several concrete steps to bridge the diversity in ideology, politics, economy, and social matter, along with the efforts towards educational system. History education had been made as the main choice in Malaysia in order to realize the goal of teaching political value as well as its importance. History also plays a role in improving socialization and awareness towards politics within the young generation, as well as strengthening nationalism as an important element to build a good citizenship. History education should be able to foster national integration and national development. The awareness towards historical heritage is important to foster group identity that later may form the sense of belonging, love, empathy and loyalty. The development on history education in Malaysia shows that the subject of history has been made as a bridge in achieving the above goal (KPM, 2003) namely to foster the loyalty and identity as the citizen of Malaysia and as the member of the world society. Multicultural perspective is important to be delivered in history education so that every ethnic will be pround and respected. Multiculturality and diversity should be considered as a potential to foster diversity into national integration. History may also build an understanding and respect as well as explores other ethnic cultures as to find similarities that can be accepted nationally to build tolerant and to prevent clash among ethnics in Malaysia in the future time.
