Sistem pemilihan umum dan hak-hak Eksosob by Abadi, Husnu

“…Belanja publik di banyak daerah lebih banyak untuk biaya pemerintahan.Rakyat harus mencari jalannya sendiri dan mengambil alih tanggung jawab negara, tetapi sayangnya negara tidak memahami bahwa mereka tengah melakukan proses pemiskinan pada rakyatnya sendiri.Kebijakan negara selanjutnya dinilai lebih tunduk dan takluk pada kepentingan kekuatan modal yang berakibat pada pembiaran akan nasib rakyat banyak untuk berhadapan langsung dengan mereka.Kepemimpinan yang diciptakan dari proses yang demokratis, ternyata belum sepenuhnya mampu melahirkan pemimpin yang membawa perbaikan dalam pelayanan dan kesejahteraan rakyat banyak, demikian juga kekuatan legislative yang dilahirkan dan ditugasi untuk mengawasi pemerintah, masih jauh dari harapan.Demokrasi politik masih berjarak dengan demokrasi di bidang ekonomi.…”

Special measures’ applications for victims and vulnerable and intimidated witnesses in Malaysia: New frontiers to right to a fair trial? by Abdul Ghafar, Abidah

“…In England and Wales, some measures to lessen stress and trauma of such witnesses undergoing a criminal process were introduced into the legislations. Yet, as many other Asian countries, Malaysia developed her victims’ policy only in 1990s and issues relating to the protection of VIWs were raised within the criminal justice system just recently.The tendency to put the standpoint into practice in the Malaysian legal system is demonstrated in the establishment of the Evidence of Child Witness Act 2007 (ECWA 2007) and the amendment of Section 272B of the Criminal Procedure Code.On the other hand, it is also arguable that special measures’ applications for victims and VIWs will erode the right of defendants to a fair trial. …”

Knowledge of auditors' existing duties among Malaysian accounting undergraduates by Harun Rasit, Mohd Hadzrami, Ibrahim, Mohammad Azhar, Danila, Raudah, Amran, Noor Afza, Ghazali, Mohamad Zulkurnai

“…Knowledge on auditors' existing duties is important for its contribution towards reducing the audit expectation gap (AEG).AEG is critical to the auditing profession because the greater the gap from the point of a society, the lower is the credibility, earnings potential and prestige associated with the work of auditors.Previous studies suggest that the AEG can be narrowed by either a reduction in society’s expectations or an improvement in their perceived performance of auditors.It is significant to investigate the accounting students’ knowledge on auditors because majority of them, after graduating, will either join the public practices (auditor) or commercial organisation (financial statements user).The knowledge on auditors’ existing duties that students acquired at university will help the user of financial statements in particular, to better understand the duties of auditors.This study aims; firstly, to investigate the adequacy of knowledge on the auditors’ duties as defined by the Malaysian legislations and Malaysian Approved Standards on Auditing among Malaysian accounting students; and secondly, to determine any significant difference of such knowledge between those students who had and those who had not undergone the internship in audit firms.A questionnaire survey is distributed to 800 accounting students of public and private universities in Malaysia.It is found that students, on overall, have a sufficient knowledge on the auditors’ existing duties.Also, there is no significant difference on the knowledge of auditors’ existing duties between students who had undergone internship in audit firms and students who had not.The contributions of this paper are two-prongs.First, this is the first paper that determined the knowledge on the auditors’ existing duties among accounting students in the Malaysian universities.Second, this paper helps in identifying the area of auditors’ existing duties that accounting students are lacking.…”
