Magical realism and representations of the cold war in Southeast Asia by Lye, Kit Ying

“…However, while there are acknowledgements by scholars that religious myths and pre-existing animistic beliefs continue to influence the way that the indigenous people understand their worlds, Southeast Asian authors (unlike many of their postcolonial peers), do not actively employ magical realism in their exploration of history and civil unrest in their writings, and when they do, are not employed to the same degree as postcolonial authors in other regions. …”

Effect of geometric scaling on the microstructural development of selective laser melted metal parts by Ng, Angelin Shia Yin

“…This study discusses the effect of geometric scaling, delay time (i.e., the time it takes for the laser beam to jump from one scan vector to the adjacent scan vector, which is controlled by the jump speed), gas flow, and defocusing distance on microstructural development and mechanical properties of selective laser melted 316L stainless steel. 316L stainless steel has been used in various industries such as aerospace and petrochemical industries due to its superior properties such as very good corrosion resistance. …”

Understanding Public and Nonprofit Managers' Motivation Through the Lens of Self-Determination Theory by Chen, Chung-An, Bozeman, Barry

“…The findings show that public managers exhibit stronger service motivation, identified motivation, external motivation, and amotivation when compared to their nonprofit peers. In addition, public managers' strong external motivation and amotivation compromise their overall level of self-determination, suggesting that they may be less motivated by their work requirements than are nonprofit counterparts.…”
