Warisan seni Keris tradisional Melayu: satu analisis dari perspektif kebudayaan Melayu

2019 , Shuhairimi Abdullah , Noor Salwani Hussin , Jamsari Jamaluddin , Abdul Jalil Ramli , Tengku Kastriafuddin Shah Tengku Yaakob , Amani Ali , Norhudi'in Danu@Dadoo , Mohd Erpi Mohd Ali , Abdul Rahman Abdul Manaf

Keris merupakan senjata warisan yang menjadi lambang keberanian dan kesatriaan masyarakat Melayu sejak zaman berzaman. Kehebatan senjata itu begitu istimewa hinggakan pahlawan Melaka, Laksamana Hang Tuah begitu sinonim dengan keris yang dikenali dengan Taming Sari. Sehingga kini, keris menjadi lambang kebesaran institusi kesultanan Melayu di negara ini. Keunikan keris bukan sahaja terserlah ketika ditampilkan dalam gerak jurus persilatan, malah ia bermula daripada pembuatannya yang teliti dan halus. Meskipun, keris dilihat sebagai alat kebesaran dan kebudayaan namun mitos-mitos yang beredar dalam kelompok masyarakat yang beranggapan keberadaan keris dipandang dan difahami dengan cara yang salah menyebabkan salah satu benda peninggalan budaya ini dijauhi oleh golongan muda pada masa kini. Sebagai contoh, mitos mendirikan keris harus memiliki ilmu kebatinan dan lain-lainnya, tetapi sekiranya difikir secara logik mendirikan keris adalah disebabkan oleh keseimbangan menguasai benda, seperti dalam hukum fizik dan graviti. Kepercayaan mistik tersebut masih lagi melekat dalam kepercayaan masyarakat yang dipegang oleh masyarakat tradisional dahulu malah masih lagi dipercayai oleh masyarakat moden pada hari ini. Penulisan kertas kerja ini adalah bersumberkan kepada dokumen-dokumen bertulis yang sedia ada. Analisis berkaitan dokumen bertulis tersebut akan disaring bagi menjawab persoalan kajian dalam kertas kerja ini. Umumnya, pemahaman tentang keris ternyata masih lagi mendapat tempat dalam masyarakat khususnya dalam kalangan individu pengumpul keris dan pencinta kebudayaan. Pada awalnya fungsi keris memang dianggap sebagai senjata tikam. Namun, apabila berlakunya perkembangan dan perubahan zaman fungsi keris telah berubah menjadi alat pusaka. Pada masa tertentu keris juga sempat dijadikan sebagai simbol status sosial dan pada masa kini penerimaan keris cenderung kepada alat perhiasan dan kesenian serta kebudayaan.

The population is a group of youths who are pursuing their studies at public universities (age range 18-25) randomly selected through multi stage random sampling. Four selected universities to represent the zones and G Power Analysis Software has been used to identify sample size. Facebook is the main choice for respondents in the search for health information after Youtube and Blog. Twitter was less used by respondents in the context of health information search. In terms of health information sought, the majority of respondents liked to seek information about the cause of the disease, symptoms, complications or effects and nutritional information. Most respondents prefer to seek health information in the form of images and storytelling/personal experiences of suffering from illness. Respondents spent most of their time on Blog and Youtube for reading on health information. Youth are using social media for seeking health information. However, they are more likely to consume information than they are to contribute to the information posted online.

Online shopping has become a trend nowadays and a survey shows that youngsters among Generation Y are the most active users on using online shopping. In the meantime, National Consumer Complaints Centre (NCCC) has received lots of complaints about online shopping scams. Therefore, this study determines the psychological factors influencing online shopping behaviour among students of Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). A conceptual framework is proposed by applying the constructs of Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) including attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, buying behaviour and two additional factors which are perceived risks and perceived benefits adopted from the past empirical studies which are determined as psychological factors of online shopping. This quantitative research used a questionnaire via google form link distributed to 390 respondents selected by convenience sampling among UniMAP students. The results showed that attitude, perceived risks and perceived benefits had relationship toward online buying due to p=<0.05. Meanwhile, subjective norms have a very weak relationship with r-value=.130 and perceived behaviour control was not correlated with online shopping (P-value=0.870). Perceived behavioural control influence an individual's understanding of the complexity or ease of executing a specific action concludes that psychological factors partially influence online shopping among UniMAP's students.

The Nigerian and some Asia country's media landscape over the years has projected numerous political campaigns that are hate speeches directed at the perceived opposition candidates and political party. This study examined the influence of hate speech messages on voters' choice of candidate in Kwara State, Nigeria in 2019 GE and was anchored on the agenda-setting theory. The study used a survey research design with a single cross-sectional research method. The study generated 464,393 registered voters as the study population. Using cluster sampling and purposive respectively to select 400 samples. The study, therefore, discovered that social media is the most channel of exposure by respondents on hate speech messages during the 2019 gubernatorial election in Kwara State with 66%. The study also found that the use of hate speech undermines the importance of political candidates with 72% in any given election. The study further discovered that the use of hate speech during elections influenced the voters by making them change from one candidate to the other with 82% thereby encouraging more votes against the opposition party. The implication of these findings has a strong influence on the way electorates undermine the importance of political issues and as such rendered political candidates and parties irrelevant with a critical effect on the credibility, fairness, and smooth running of any political landscape and the conduct of Nigerian elections in general. The paper proposes critical political education to electorates on voting behavior to promote good governance.
