“…There are also Aboriginal people that have income from selling handicrafts such as weaving, basketry, pottery, woodcarving and other traditional craftsmanship [7].In recent years, eco-tourism and cultural tourism have developed in aboriginal villages. Aboriginal villages are popular travel destinations for people looking for special cultural experiences because they have a rich cultural heritage, follow traditional customs, and boast beautiful natural surroundings that can be the potential to create job opportunities and income for Aboriginal communities [8].…”

Natural resources have been home to the Aboriginal communities for hundreds of years. However, modernizations have transformed the natural resources into an urban area that changed the livelihood of an indigenous community. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the impacts of regional development towards Aboriginal communities in Iskandar, Malaysia. Kampung Simpang Arang was selected as a case study. Kampung Simpang Arang is located in southeast Iskandar Malaysia, where the majority of the community was the Seletar tribe. The Seletar tribe is one of the earliest aboriginal communities settled as indigenous coastal communities. This village is selected due to its location within a 15 kilometres radius of high-impact projects such as Tanjung Pelepas Port, Legoland and Tuas Checkpoint. A total of 50 Aboriginal people in the village were involved in the household survey. The findings highlighted that the economic structure has developed from just fisheries and collecting forest products to the industrial sector. Other regional impacts identified towards the Seletar community are improved infrastructure, education, possession and health care and the low youth migration rate. Therefore, this study contributes to understanding the repercussions of regional development in Iskandar Malaysia on the socioeconomic structure and quality of life of the Seletar tribe, informing future policies and actions to address the needs and challenges.

“…Good governance enhances democratic practices that lead to people's contentment (Christmann, 2018), fortifying lives and happiness (Ibrahim et al, 2023;Helliwell et al, 2014), and has positively impacted community satisfaction (Beshi & Kaur, 2020). Good governance brings satisfaction and encourages public trust in the government (Bouckaert & Walle, 2003).…”

This study was to investigate the role of good governance on the community's satisfaction with the legislative institution, i.e., the state assemblyman. Good governance is often perceived as political stability for the effectiveness of administration. Good governance serves as the core element in administration, including political representation in Malaysia. In previous elections, the political representation trend shows a new pattern of citizens’ inclination. Citizens had removed some of the under-performed representatives in the past elections due to dissatisfaction with the political representatives' performance. This study looked at how good governance impacted transparency, accountability, and responsiveness in relation to community satisfaction with administrative services performed by political representatives. This study used a survey through a purposive sampling technique (n-396). In order to prove hypotheses, the regression analysis technique was applied. Based on the results, the relationships among all independent and dependent variables are positive and significant, implying good governance plays a positive and significant role in affecting the level of satisfaction. Therefore, it is important for political representatives in Malaysia to strive for good governance in order to build trust and confidence among citizens and promote a healthy and functioning democracy.

“…Poverty is linked with fishing towns, and one of the contributing elements is fishermen's persecution. Communities can address social exclusion by giving learning opportunities to the community (Ibrahim et al, 2023;Henderson, 2005), which leads to community development.…”

Efforts to promote fishing community empowerment frequently face obstacles owing to inefficient measures carried out by multiple parties that do not result in substantial improvements in the fishing communities. The persistence of this problem, however, can be linked to a lack of capacity building activities, particularly in the context of sustainability, which is critical for long-term development among fishermen. This research intends to investigate the reality of fishermen's capacity building in Terengganu, Malaysia, using the aspects of economic sustainability, institutional environment, and fishermen's technology. The study included 220 coastal fishermen who were sampled in stages. Questionnaires were used to collect data, which was then analysed using descriptive statistics and Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (SEM-PLS). According to the study's findings, the development of sustainability capabilities (technological, economic, institutional, and technological) influences the empowerment of fishing communities. As a result, community empowerment programmes should focus on capacity building in order to foster a well-empowered community.
