Makalah ini mempunyai dua tujuan, pertama membincangkan perkembangan industri perikanan di wilayah ECER; kedua, meneliti kesan perkembangan industri perikanan dan kaitannya dengan titik peralihan nelayan laut dalam. Kajian menggabungkan data primer dan data sekunder untuk mendapatkan hasil kajian. Kajian dilakukan menerusi pendekatan kualitatif dengan menemu bual 17 orang informan yang terdiri daripada juragan laut dalam. Informan dipilih menerusi pensampelan bertujuan dan pensampelan bola salji. Kajian dilakukan di wilayah ECER (East Coast Economic Region) yang melibatkan empat buah negeri iaitu Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang dan Johor Timur. Hasil temu bual ditranskripsikan dalam bentuk data verbatim iaitu sedutan kata daripada informan. Data verbatim dianalisis menggunakan analisis tematik yang melibatkan proses pengekodan, pengkategorian dan akhirnya pengeluaran tema bagi menjawab soalan kajian.Analisis kajian mendapati bahawa perkembangan industri perikanan mempengaruhi proses peralihan yang berlaku kepada nelayan laut dalam. Peralihan tersebut menunjukkan bahawa nelayan laut dalam dapat menerima perubahan yang berlaku dalam industri perikanan. Malah proses peralihan nelayan itu sendiri memberi kesan dari segi sosial, ekonomi, fizikal dan polisi kepada industri perikanan. Penemuan penting adalah nelayan laut dalam khususnya sebahagian juragan laut dalam telah menjadi pengusaha perikanan atau usahawan perikanan yang dikenali sebagai juragan-pengusaha. Pengiktirafan juragan-pengusaha sebagai usahawan secara tidak langsung memberi kesan kepada polisi strategik dalam industri perikanan berkaitan dengan jaminan keselamatan makanan negara.

For an upper-middle income country, Malaysia had experienced over 50% ratio of debt to GDP since 2009 until now. The question arises is whether this trend is healthy to the economy. With a focus into the debt-to-GDP ratio from 1970-2015, this study investigates the short-run and long-run relationship between public debt and economic growth in Malaysia. This study used secondary data by collecting time-series data (1970-2015) from the World Bank Data and Bank Negara Malaysia. Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model is applied in this study to examine the relationship between debt and economic growth. Based on ARDL framework, it shows that there is a long-run effect between the debt and economic growth in Malaysia. While the significance value of Error Correction Term shows that there is a long-run adjustment in the short run. Generally, this study found government expenditures, in the long run, strongly influence the GDP per capita. Through the findings, the government expenditures could increase the GDP per capita. The study also reveals that any increment of the debt ratio will result in reduction of the GDP per capita.

The level of understanding based on the opinions of Muslims and non-Muslims should be mapped out to define the halal thayyib food law as a social construct. It is important to determine the definition of halalan thayyiban food law according to ideas, opinions, and experiences of the leaders of Muslims and non-Muslims. This is not a theological study, and this study is based on the sociological methodology of an abductive study. This study adopted the qualitative data analysis using an in-depth interview to examine the perception of Muslims and non-Muslims leaders in Banten province, Indonesia on the halalan thayyiban food law. The result revealed that Muslims and non-Muslims have different definitions of ḥalāl food. However, their understanding of thayyib food has the same basic constructs related to goodness in preprocessing, during, and post-processing of food.
