Curriculum 2013 has been implemented by many schools, including a junior high school at Kediri. English teachers, who implement it, must have sufficient knowledge on what to teach, how to teach, and how to assess students’ competence, etc. The idea of implementing this curriculum is that graduates of school levels are able to compete with the graduates from other countries. Students should have communicative competence in English which covers four language skills. Therefore, this research aims at answering the question: “How is the implementation of teaching English based on Curriculum 2013 applied by an English teacher of junior high school at Kediri?” The subject of this research is an English teacher of junior high school at Kediri. It is a qualitative research which focused on the material development, teaching steps, and classroom management. The data was found from observation during teaching and learning process, interview the teacher, and documentation. The result showed that in teaching English the teacher developed the materials by modifying and extending the tasks based on the Richard and Harmer’s theory. Then, in delivering the materials, the teacher tried to implement the scientific approach, although the application was different from the concept from the scientific approach proposed by the government. Furthermore, the teacher also managed the classroom well by applying group works, and setting the comfortable condition in the class during teaching and learning process.   Key words: teaching English, Curriculum 2013, materials development, teaching steps, classroom management.

The ageing population trend is a problem for almost all countries in the world. In Malaysia, the issue is exacerbated by insufficient employee savings to face retirement. The majority of Malaysian employees have savings no more other than mandatory savings of the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) account. On the other hand, waqf has many roles in the country’s economic development as it helps to improve welfare of the community. This paper aims to connect the gap between pension and waqf issues through a new proposed Waqf Based Pension Model. This study uses descriptive analysis to propose a Waqf Based Pension Model. This study employs library research approach to collect secondary data from journal articles, books, reports, and websites that contain existing pension schemes and waqf. This new model improves weaknesses in the existing pension scheme using annuity-based calculations. This study finds that productive waqf assets may be used to generate greater profits. In addition, waqf funds are then allocated to build the infrastructure needed by the community such as health services, education, housing, transportation and religious facilities. The new Waqf Based Pension Model is expected to be supported and applied by the government and the community.

Behind the beauty of natural it turns out that it has many potential natural disasters in almost all provinces in Indonesia, in the form of landslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, Mount Meletus and others. The problem is that the government must have accurate data to deal with disasters throughout the province, where disaster data can be in categories or groups of regions into very vulnerable, medium, and low disaster areas. It is often found when a disaster occurs, many found that the distribution of long-term assistance because the stock for disaster-prone areas is not well available. In the study, it will be proposed to group disaster-prone areas throughout the province in Indonesia using the k-means algorithm. The expected results can group all regions that are very prone to disasters. Thus, the results can be Province West java, central java very vulnerable categories, provinces Aceh, North Sumatera, West Sumatera, east Java and North Sulawesi in the medium category, provinces Bengkulu, Lampung, Riau Island, Babel, DIY, Bali, West Kalimantan, North Kalimantan, Central Sulawesi, West Sulawesi, Maluku, North Maluku, Papua, west Papua including of rare categories. With the results obtained in this study, the government can map disaster-prone areas as well as prepare emergency response assistance quickly.

Effective Planning

This paper explores the potency of rural cooperatives for the effective planning and implementation of rural strategies to address poverty. Rural cooperatives function as a participatory approach that provides the potential to equip and empower people in rural areas with various skills. Hence, rural cooperatives represent the means and strategies to unshackle rural people from the vicious circle of poverty. The contestation about a deadlock of rural development has become pertinent in the recent and ongoing political transformation in South Africa. This paper is grounded on the social capital theory and its ideals. As such, it depends on a literature review for its premise, argument, crux and purpose, as well as drawing up results and conclusions. The paper gathers information in respect of various scholars’ notions on rural cooperatives and rural development from related articles, journals and books. The paper reveals that where the South African government is confronted and characterised by some form of upheaval and service delivery challenges, so rural cooperatives are fit to capacitate citizens to avoid depending on the government for scarce resources. The paper further reveals that rural cooperatives are deemed to ameliorate the long-standing patterns of developmental backlogs in almost all South African municipalities. The conclusion that can be made from this paper is that the authentic promotion of rural development in the formulation of a well-informed legislative framework, that is clear and unambiguous, can deal effectively with the challenges of rural cooperatives.

Economic Development Model

This case focuses on the challenges faced by a Malaysian state-owned automobile manufacturer, Proton. In so doing, it exemplifies the political context in which businesses, both domestic and foreign, operate in Malaysia. What makes Proton unique is its origin as the brainchild of Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohammad, Malaysia's fourth Prime Minister. Mahathir was one of the longest-serving leaders in Asia when he resigned in 2003. Over his 22-year reign, Mahathir and his government made several fundamental changes to Malaysia's institutions and his legacy is still reflected in the current social, political and economic institutions. One of the more controversial economic programs he championed was the National Car Project, under which Proton was established. When Mahathir decided to industrialise Malaysia's economy, he did not look to the west for direction, but instead turned to the east — Japan. He adopted the Japanese economic development model that emphasises hands-on government involvement in the economy. To form Proton, he selected Japanese Mitsubishi Motors as the joint venture partner and within two years Proton was rolling out its own vehicles, which in effect were the “rebadged” version of Mitsubishi's Lancer. To ensure there were customers for Proton vehicles, the government raised import tariffs, making it very expensive to buy foreign imports. It also made Proton the official supplier for almost all government passenger vehicles. Under the protection policies of Mahathir, Proton grew to dominate the domestic market. However, it was unable to succeed in obtaining the desired technology from its Japanese partner, or in developing the ability to survive independently and compete effectively, especially in the international market. Part of Proton's weakness stemmed from its social agenda, which favoured bumiputera suppliers, even at the expense of cost and quality efficiency. Proton therefore serves as a good example to illustrate what can happen to a business when it is over-protected, and when business decisions are not made on merit-based principles. Proton's weaknesses were further exposed when the government allowed the establishment of a second national automaker, Perodua, in 1993. The recent free-trade policies adopted by the ASEAN countries, and also by China and India, have put even more pressure on Proton to transform. But the question is how?

In 1979 the United States and China established normal diplomatic relations, allowing me to visit China and study the Chinese economy. After doing so for 30 years since and advising the government of Taiwan in the 1960s and the 1970s and the government of the People's Republic of China in the 1980s and the 1990s, this is an opportune moment for me to summarize the important lessons I have learned. The lessons will be summarized in four parts: on economic science, on formulating economic policy and providing economic advice, on the special characteristics of the Chinese economy and on the experience of China's economic reform. At the beginning, I should comment on the quality of Chinese official data on which almost all quantitative studies referred to in this article were based. Chow (2006) has presented the view that by and large the official data are useful and fairly accurate. The main justification is that every time I tested an economic hypothesis or estimated an economic relation using the official data the result confirmed the well-established economic theory. It would be a miracle if I had the power to make the Chinese official statisticians fabricate data to support my hypotheses. Even if I had had the power, most of the data had already been published for years before I conceived the ideas of the studies reported in this article.
