In the era of Industry Revolution (IR) 4.0, business and industry are being transformed by a new wave of digital technology. In order to boost the economy’s prosperity in Malaysia, skilled workforce or well-trained manpower is vital in accomplishing the goal.However, it requires mainstreaming Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET)in education system by providingcomprehensive training, effective research consultancy, holistic courses, collaboration, student placement and program attachment opportunity. Coherent from this issue, the government can produce more skill workers that can handle the rapid changing world of work. In Malaysia, there are more than 1000 TVET institutions, where 506 are considered as public institutions. However, itstill receives less attention by the students after secondary education. The identified potential factors are TVET instructors, current policy in Malaysia, social perception, employers’ perception, parents, facility, education cost and student themselves. Therefore, this study aims to rank these factors according to the levels of importance using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. AHP is a method used to rank criteria by assigning the weight for each criterion. In this study, primary data is collected using questionnaires from 32 TVET instructors of Institut Kemahiran Belia Negara (IKBN) in northern region of Malaysia. The result of AHP shows that the variable of parents is the most influential factor with the weight of 18.81%, followed by the variable of facilities (18.56%). Conversely, the least influential factor is the variable of social perception with the weight of 7.21%. Hence, the government should implement appropriate strategies to attract more secondary school students to enroll in TVET programs. Due to the growth of skilled workers, our country is expected to transform the landscape of the manufacturing industry over the next decade. Hence, developingthe country’s productivity and curbing youth unemployment.

Floods are among the most destructive natural hazards that cost lives and disrupt the socioeconomic activities of residents, especially in the rapidly growing cities of developing countries. Jeddah, a coastal city situated in Saudi Arabia, has experienced severe flash flood events in recent years. With intense rainfall, extensive coastal developments, and sensitive ecosystems, the city is susceptible to severe flash flood risks. The objective of this article is to apply an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model to explore the impacts of flash flood hazards and identify the most effective approaches to reducing the flash flood impacts in Jeddah using expert’s opinions. The study utilizes experts’ judgments and employs the AHP for data analyses and modeling. The results indicated that property loss has the highest probability of occurrence in the events of a flash flood with a priority level of 42%, followed by productivity loss (28%). Injuries and death were rated the least priority of 18% and 12%, respectively. Concerning flood impact reduction alternatives, river management (41%) and early warning system (38%) are the most favorable options. The findings could assist the government to design appropriate measures to safeguard the lives and properties of the residents. The study concludes by underscoring the significance of incorporating experts’ judgments in assessing flash flood impacts.

Nowadays, the Government as a Platform (GaaP) based on cloud computing and network, has come to be considered a new structure to manage efficiently data-driven administration in the public sector. When the GaaP concept was first introduced, the ICT infrastructures that could underpin GaaP were not sufficiently developed. However, the recent digital transformation has transformed the previous electronic government, which was system- and architecture-oriented. As part of the next generation of government models, GaaP may reinvent the government at a lower cost but with better performance, similar to the case of electronic government two decades ago. This study attempted to determine the priority of factors of GaaP by using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methodology. Because of the GaaP characteristics, we drew the main components for building GaaP from previous studies and a group interview with experts. The study results show that experts tend to prefer publicness in terms of building GaaP. Most of the factors that the experts weighed with the highest importance are related to the public sector, which revealed that governments should focus on their primary duty, regardless of the origin and characteristics of the platform in GaaP. However, since GaaP allows governments to be more horizontal and innovative, the platform approach can fundamentally shift the existing processes and culture of the public sector. The enhanced activity of citizens with ICT can also accelerate the introduction of GaaP. Finally, the study showed that a data-driven GaaP is necessary to efficiently handle big data, contract services, and multiple levels of on-line and off-line channels. In this public platform, government, citizens, and private sector organizations can work cooperatively as partners to seamlessly govern the hyper-connected society.

Urban environmental issues such as declining air quality and increasing urban heat island effects can be managed by the effective use of urban green spaces. Consequently, the importance of green infrastructure (GI) has rapidly increased over time. While the various functions of GI have been investigated in numerous studies, limited research has focused on prioritizing those factors which impact the planning and development of GI. This study used literature reviews, expert surveys, and an analytic hierarchy process methodology to identify and prioritize the critical factors influencing GI during the design and construction process to enhance the role of GI in urban areas. Experts were asked to prioritize four primary (ecological, landscape, usability, and economic factors) and 16 secondary aspects of GI design. Respondents strongly agreed on the importance of the ecological aspects of GI, while the government sector also highlighted the importance of economic concerns, such as ongoing maintenance. Results indicated that the priorities for creating GI require further analysis and mediation between stakeholders. Further empirical evidence should be accumulated regarding the functions of GI for policy implementation in design and construction.

The performance evaluation of the government venture capital guiding fund (GVCGF) has come into focus in the field of venture capital. Most of the existing studies, such as whether the GVCGF has guided social capital to start-up enterprises and has played its due role in the process of enterprise growth and innovation, are all based on relevant work under the framework of econometric analysis. Unlike in these existing studies, we construct the performance analysis model of the GVCGF from four dimensions, including the standardization development of the guidance fund, the risk control ability, and the leverage and the support effects under the framework of a multi-attribute decision-making analysis. Taking a GVCGF project in Ningbo City, China, as an example, we comprehensively evaluate the development performance of the GVCGF using the intuitionistic fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (IFAHP). The results show that the development performance of the GVCGF is at a “relatively high” level. Compared with the traditional analytic hierarchy process (AHP), the IFAHP effectively avoids the false, enlarged influence caused by data subjectivity and evaluation uncertainty. This study provides a feasible analytical framework for the application of the IFAHP in other project performance evaluations.

Residential buildings are being renovated around the world, especially apartments, their solutions are becoming increasingly important. The number of apartments in Korea that are more than 20 years old has reached 4.3 million, and the problem of aged apartments now needs to be addressed. Consequently, the government is promoting the improvement of the residential environment through renovation. In a renovation project, a feasibility study is conducted at the outset, but many apartments fail to complete the renovation process during the project. One reason is that feasibility studies focus on economics without sufficiently considering the technical aspects of the redesign. This study developed a feasibility study model that can pre-evaluate apartment renovation in terms of technology. We selected 27 criteria that affect technical feasibility, and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was performed with experts to derive the relative importance of the criteria. Based on the weight of the criteria, we developed an apartment renovation technology feasibility study model. As a result of the study, unit and complex conditions were found to have a significant influence on renovation. Moreover, it was found that the technical feasibility study model can quantitatively evaluate the technical aspects of an apartment to be renovated.
