    This paper reports on the results of a move analysis as proposed in the CARS model by Swales (1990) on 30 Mechatronic engineering introduction sections of research articles. First, a corpus was systematically compiled from the journal of IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics to ensure that it represents the focused discipline. Then, coding reliability analysis was conducted to demonstrate that, given a set of coding protocols and systematic training and practice, two individuals could agree upon move boundaries. Finally, move analysis of the corpus was conducted. Based on the findings of the analysis it is found that the introduction sections of Mechatronic RA’s do not conform to the CARS framework and there are variations in terms of the Move structure. This study is useful particularly to native and non-native ESP learners and teachers not only allowing them to better understand published research articles for pedagogical purposes but also facilitating the process of writing research articles for publication.

    The objectives of this paper are as follow: to study the background of entrepreneurship in Malaysia in general, the significance of entrepreneurship in the country’s economy as we progress towards the year 2020 and its importance from the Islamic perspective. This paper depends wholly on content analysis as research methodology. The findings show that entrepreneurship is overwhelmingly encouraged by the Qur’an, the tradition of the Prophet Muhammad, the athar of the companions of the Prophet. The status of the entrepreneurship is equivalent to hajj, as the primal occupation of the prophet Muhammad and the companions, the source of wealth. Finally this paper suggests that entrepreneurship should be continually promoted as the main chacteristic of Vision 2020.
