Special focus: Navigating Malaysia towards a Developed Maritime Nation: The Urgency of Comprehensive National Maritime Economy Policy Description: Malaysia's maritime industry emphasises its pivotal role in the country’s global trade and economic growth. The potential for significant growth in ocean-based industries, including marine aquaculture and offshore wind energy, has emphasised the importance of maritime economy and sustainable ocean resource management. This article, hence, aims at assessing Malaysia’s trade, industrial, and investment policies, noting a generally liberal environment and at the same time highlighting challenges within its implementation—including regulatory ga...
Special focus: Navigating Climate Change: A Brief Summary on Innovative Ocean Solutions Abstract: The ocean plays a crucial role in sustaining life on Earth by harbouring a significant portion of biodiversity, regulating the climate, contributing to the economy, and ensuring global food security. Nevertheless, the anticipated rise in worldwide temperatures, in addition to the acidification of the oceans and the elevation of sea levels, presents significant dangers to vital marine ecosystems and the benefits they provide. In spite of the commitments to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as outlined in the Paris Agreement, they are inadequate in restraining the global temperature increase ...
Adoption of new technologies in logistics and supply chain processes is crucial for the continued effectiveness of supply chains. Technology has the potential to address the issue of logistics and supply chain visibility throughout the supply chain, from raw materials through manufacturers and end users. When properly implemented, improved forecasting of inventory levels, employee productivity, adequate accountability, and higher warehouse savings are all possible. Additionally, businesses must upskill their supply chain workers and recruit and manage digital talent in cross-functional teams. The Handbook of Research on Promoting Logistics and Supply Chain Resilience Through Digital Transfor...
Strategies on the Implementation of the Collection and Reporting of Fuel Oil Consumption Data Based an MARPOL Annex VI: A Malaysian Case Study Abstract Collection and reporting of ship fuel oil consumption data for ships of 5,000 gross tonnage (GT) and above have been made mandatory from calendar year 2019 onwards on an annual basis by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), which is one of the global standards under the Annex VI of the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL).

Rapid digital transformation is forcing the manufacturing industry to drastically alter its current trajectory for future success. The remarkable convergence of digitalization and manufacturing is reshaping industries, ushering in an era known as Industry 5.0. This revolutionary transition has given birth to digital manufacturing and smart factories, heralding a new dawn in the way we produce goods. The amalgamation of artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, the internet of things (IoT), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), big data analytics, cloud computing, and additive manufacturing stands poised to unlock unprecedented avenues in the realm of production. Practitioners, research...
The evolution of information technologies, mobile devices, social media, and the needs of students, workers, and academics has experienced rapid changes in the past several years. This complex and dynamic reality requires new forms of education delivery and teaching methodologies for academics. Old teaching practices must be refreshed to provide customized and context-adapted learning opportunities. Additionally, there are drivers, barriers, and success factors within distance and mobile learning devices and systems that need to be explored and tested. The Handbook of Research on Education Institutions, Skills, and Jobs in the Digital Era aims to foster an international dialogue of approache...
Special focus: Passage of Foreign Fishing Vessels and Enforcement Regimes of Coastal States with Reference to Malaysian Practice Description: The creation and widespread adoption of 200 nautical miles (nmi) of exclusive economic zone (EEZ) under the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) represents a dramatic geographic and functional expansion of coastal states’ (refer to all the international conventions) jurisdiction – probably the largest transfer of resources to national jurisdiction in history. These zones cover about 36 per cent (%) of the surface of the seas, 90% of fisheries, and 43% of the value of the world’s “ecosystem services”. Thus, to undertak...
