    Malaysia is heading into a new era of digital transformation and automation. An innovative digital system enables to streamline the production of goods. In general, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) has constructed a National Policy for Industrial Revolution 4.0. It encourages innovation to enhance its productivity and sustainability. In line with that, Malaysia's government introduced a smart factory to the manufacturing practices, specifically manufacturing SMEs. The Industrial 4.0 standards including highly agile, efficient and automated production lines integrated into technological procedures. However, the smart factory operates in a highly digitised environment involved in Big Data analysis, emphasising governance, risk management, and compliance. One of the significant issues faced within a smart factory includes the cost and scale to suit the technology used. Also, issues related to technological complexity always creating uncertainty in the business case. It hinders the decision-making process in the case of cost data overflow. Thus, the smart factory needs smart governance to assist in its decision-making. The study primarily investigates emerging critical elements of governance practices, risk management, and compliance that enhance product capacity. Secondly, propose an innovative factory governance model and its impact on Malaysian manufacturing SMEs' cost and production capacity. The study explores governance, risk management, and compliance implemented through the smart factoryin manufacturing SME within the lens of qualitative methodology. Simultaneously, the quantitative methodology uses to triangulate by optimising product capacity using different evaluation methods. Therefore, this studyaddresses the gaps by proposing a new smart factory governance model to fill the gaps in achieving the NationalPolicy on Industrial 4.0.

    A disposable screen-printed e-tongue based on sensor array and pattern recognition that is suitable for the assessment of water quality in fish tanks is described. The characteristics of sensors fabricated using two kinds of sensing materials, namely (i) lipids (referred to as Type 1), and (ii) alternative electroactive materials comprising liquid ion-exchangers and macrocyclic compounds (Type 2) were evaluated for their performance stability, sensitivity and reproducibility. The Type 2 e-tongue was found to have better sensing performance in terms of sensitivity and reproducibility and was thus used for application studies. By using a pattern recognition tool i.e. principal component analysis (PCA), the e-tongue was able to discriminate the changes in the water quality in tilapia and catfish tanks monitored over eight days. E-tongues coupled with partial least squares (PLS) was used for the quantitative analysis of nitrate and ammonium ions in catfish tank water and good agreement were found with the ion-chromatography method (relative error, ±1.04- 4.10 %).

    This study examines the impact of viable Supply Chain Management (SCM) on the long-term viability of Malaysian manufacturing enterprises during the COVID-19 epidemic. It specifically studies how government support can moderate this relationship. The pandemic's unprecedented disruptions have emphasised the vital need for resilient supply chains to guarantee ongoing operations and achieve sustainability goals. This study employs a quantitative approach to investigate the influence of effective SCM on the long-term viability of companies. Survey questions were distributed to a total of 488 respondents, consisting of upper-level employees of manufacturing companies in Malaysia. The study has employed a stratified random sampling process. The study utilise data from 197 manufacturing enterprises in Malaysia, which is examined using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings suggest that organisations with robust and flexible supply networks were more capable of sustaining their operations and attaining their sustainability objectives. Contrary to expectations, the data indicate that government support did not have a moderating effect on the connection between VSCM practices and corporate sustainability. To improve sustainability and ensure operational continuity during times of crisis, the report emphasises the importance of investing in and cultivating resilient supply chain procedures for industry professionals. The findings indicate that governments should reevaluate the processes and effectiveness of government support given to companies during disruptive events. This calls for a more nuanced approach to the development and execution of policies.

    NPOs in Malaysia rely on public trust to exist. However, trust has always been difficult due to a lack of accountability. This study was implemented through a comparative case of NPOs in Malaysia. Performance accountability reporting practices are crucial because NPOs involve and potentially face implications for public trust. In this study, valorising on institutional work perspective was adopted as its theoretical underpinning and mobilized to trace how NPOs engaged in elective accountability. By using the qualitative case study, in-depth interviews have been done to gain insightful information related to performance accountability reporting. Interestingly, the findings of the study suggested that performance accountability reporting had been shifted to concentrate on the non-financial disclosures include social media platform that is relevant to the public. This study contributes to the new knowledge by understandings how NPOs strategy of accountability enhance public trust and, therefore, support their mission statement.

    Education for sustainable development allows each modern human being to obtain the information, skills, attitudes and principles necessary to shape a sustainable future. The word Geo derives from the Greek word meaning "earth," which can also be interpreted in the sense of land, global or Earth-related. The purpose of this study is to analyze expert consensus for the new educational module, Geo-Education. The objective of this study is to obtain from 12 expert views to build the questionnaire of Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) in 10 points Likert scale and consensus on Primer; Natural Ecosystem; Issues and Problems; Sustainable Lifestyle; and Cross-Curricular. The methodology of this research used quantitative fuzzy Delphi analysis. The instrument consists of five sections covering 25 review items for expert consensus. The findings show that experts have consensus agree on all 25 items which exceeds 75%, and all defuzzification values for each item exceeds the value of a-cut = 0.5. That means all those items are accepted by the experts. Fuzzy Delphi Method enhanced the accuracy of the questionnaire about Geo-Education module. This study has provided preliminary information on Geo-Education module aspects that need to be focused on Primary; Natural Ecosystem; Issues and Problems; Sustainable Lifestyle; and Cross-Curricular in the process of developing effective teaching and learning modules. The implication concludes that the Geo-Education Module can be used as guidance to the Ministry of Education Malaysia to supplement the teaching materials to teachers training institutes.

    The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) incorporates intelligent computing and artificial intelligence paradigms in smart factories for ease of production and human-less interventions. The controlling unit is integrated into the smart operations in managing, controlling, and monitoring industrial operations. This article introduces an Operation-Constrained Process Control (OCPC) for preventing time-lag errors between smart machine operation cycles. The proposed method considers the operational cycles, completion time, and output efficiency metrics for identifying time lags and errors in production. Depending on the maximum productivity-based outcomes, further allocations or modifications in the regular operational cycles are identified. The productivity is analyzed based on the previous outcomes using federated learning. This learning implies multi-sensor knowledge update and production efficiency through repeated training. Therefore, the errors in cycle assignment and production completion are synchronized under controlled error. This method is analyzed using time lag, error, production efficiency, and training instances.
