Salman Alfarisi

“Explicitation” in Malay to English translation of Usman Awangs sahabatku (kepada Dr M K Rajakumar)

Mansour Amini

Abstract

Poetry, as political activism, has been extensively tailored by the poets that choose to enlighten the reality of the social issues in a nation. However, the translatability of poetic activism may come into question, as language is closely linked to the poet’s personal or cultural background and the way of expression. This paper explored the strategies used in the translation of ‘Sahabatku (Kepada Dr M K Rajakumar)’, a Malay poem by Usman Awang, translated into English by Wong Soak Koon and Muhammad Haji Salleh. The analysis revealed that literal translation, verse to prose translation, free verse translation and interpretation strategy were useful for this translation purpose. The approach used by the two translators reflected their different intentions to address different audience and use of various styles. Comparative studies like this in reflecting the zeitgeist of an era could be useful for non-Malay speakers in understanding the cultural and socio-political climate of the .....

Muliati Usman

Abstract

In a fast-moving modern era with many moral problems, Islamic work ethic (IWE) has been a pivotal concept in the success of innovation in the public sector. The perfection of “Akhlaq” is a major priority of the IWE. Its principles contain virtues derived from the Qur’an and Hadith. Practising these values will provide benefits for both individuals as well as society. Thus, Muslim who embed the values of IWE directly in their work will have more innovative behaviour. However, the value of IWE is not easy to be implemented to support innovation in the public sector. The concept of IWE is not easily accepted and applied by Islamic workers, even though they understand and know that these values are derived from the Qur’an. This situation is further worsened in a problematic public sector environment and culture. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to clarify the significant relationship between IWE and innovation in the public sector by identifying factors or aspects to solve t.....
