Abstract

Kelantan and Terengganu have the highest number of hardcore poors in Malaysia. Over the years entrepreneurship is one of the means that has been propagated by the government to address this inherent problem. While women hitherto involve in usual business activities, recently more and more women in the said states dare to jump into a new domain of businesses which usually monopolized by men - recycling. This phenomenon warrants empirical research to unearth pertinent questions of the inroad of female entrepreneurs in a new territory of business which overwhelmingly dominated by male entrepreneurs. Yet at present not many researchers and relevant government agencies look into recycling as an alternative business but for men entrepreneurs, not women. This paper is a part of a larger study that investigated entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship in recycling business in the both states. Results of the study found that women entrepreneurs in this business are matured, married, and received full support from their families – husband and children. In terms of education majority of them only study until secondary school. Highlighting women entrepreneurs’ profiles is deemed important because interested parties including future ntrepreneurs, researchers as well as relevant government agencies gain some understanding of characteristics of women entrepreneurs have made a dent in the socalled male dominant business.

Abstract

The critique on the failure of Islamic organizations to represent the Islamic nature has been pointed towards employees’ competency in understanding the Islamic concept. Hence, this study seeks to delve into the understanding of the employee in Islamic organizations regarding the concept, implementation and challenges in such organizations by employing the qualitative method. The study involves three Islamic organizations namely Islamic Banking, Takaful and Islamic Property Management Company located in three states of the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia i.e. Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang. Managerial employees from the three organizations were interviewed and the outcomes were triangulated with the experts. The findings show understanding among managerial employees in Islamic organizations is appropriate but there are still more that need to be improved.
