DEVELOPED COUNTRIES

The Characteristics of Developed and Developing Countries

Developed countries are the countries whose lives are patterned industry that matches these characteristics.

First, the average income per capita of population is generally high. This fact visualizes that average for each citizen from all over the country was paid a very expensive salary for each month. The citizens may live in a quite high standard of living.  For example, Luxembourg represents the highest paid income per capita for the year 2011. It received an amount of merely US 115,809.

Second, the education level is high for average population. This statement explains that the government itself providing a way much better education for each of their students. Investment for the education facilities, professional expertise and the surroundings of the education environment contributes to a high level and standard of education of one’s country.

Third, the life expectancy of the population average is high. The average life expectancy may be in the range of the rate of population at birth and death. Japan may be the highest scorer of its citizen’s life expectancy. Most of its citizens live longer until the age of 90 and above.

The Human Development Index (HDI) is a composite statistic used to rank countries according to their development levels from ‘very high’ to ‘very low’. The size of progress of a country can be scaled based on their life expectancy, education, standard of living, child welfare, health care, economic growth and  welfare, income per capita, population growth and happiness, unemployment and many more. These are some of the developed countries that have been ranked throughout the year 2012.

Possibilities of  reaching our vision 2020 :

 Vision of 2020 was inspired by the fourth Prime Minister of Malaysia Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad first time presented on February 28, 1991 in the inaugural meeting of the Malaysian Business Council. Vision contains nine challenges targeting Malaysia as a developed country in various aspects of economic, political, social, spiritual, psychological and cultural mold itself. Two final challenge in this vision is the air in particular economic relevance. Vision is featured realistic program based on the success of the past and the real potential of the country and provided the right impetus for economic development. Achievements of the country since independence to the present particularly gratifying achievement and in order to achieve stable economic growth, our economic should be consistent at an average rate of 7% per annum over the next 30 years.

Politic

Political stability in the country is very important to ensure that our economy continues to grow. Therefore, for had reached the status of political stability in the country, the people and the leaders of Malaysia must unite. However, still the people and leaders still have a distinct ideology and cause discord.

Culture

Malaysia consists of many ethnic, racial and religious stability in racial terms is very important to ensure a harmonious society. However  there are many issues related to racism in Malaysia such as problems related to religion. Society still does not respect other religions. Indeed genocidal May 16, 1969 are not likely to come back.

Economic

Malaysia economy is still less favorable growth in year after year. this result because there are fewer sectors provide returns to the country. growth rate is also slow because of the expected low growth more than the actual growth.

Suggested business : Tuition Centre

For the suggested business that we think that should be established in Jengka is tuition centre. This is based on our observation in Bandar Jengka, there is no tuition centre in that area. 

The school students in Jengka depend solely on their education in school whereas our group think that for the school students who are weak in certain subject, they should take some extra class or attend tuition so that they can improve their understanding on that subject while getting a better subject for the test and examinations. 

Furthermore, they can get new friends and share ideas with students from another school because they would be getting into the same class and surely not all the students in that class came from the same school or area.

 

Water problem in Jengka

Water problem is a problem that existed since the early time in Jengka. The exact cause is uncertain, but according to internet sources, this problem has persisted for over 30 years.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many complaints have been reported, but unfortunately the authorities just turn a blind eye into such problems. So, the residents just have to wait and wait and wait. There is nothing that we can do to fix this problem.

 

 

 

 

 

 



Lack of facilities in Jengka

In Jengka, many facilities have been developed throughout the years. The example of facilities are  :

 
 
 
• Hospital Jengka

• Masjid Sultan Ahmad Shah, Bandar Pusat Jengka
 
 
• Bank Islam Malaysia Bhd
 
 
 
• Bank Rakyat
 
 
 
• Bank Simpanan Nasional
 
 
 
• Maybank
 
 
 
• Agro Bank
 
 
 
• U-Mart
 
 
 
• B5
 
 
 
• 7 Eleven
 
 
 
• KFC
 
 
 
• Pagar Food Restaurant
 
 
 
• Tabung Haji
 
 
 
• Library
 
 
 
• Pejabat Majlis Agama Islam dan Adat Istiadat Pahang
 
 
 
• Police Station
 
 
 
• Fire and Rescue Department
 
 
 
• National Registration Office
 
 
 
• Tenaga Nasional office 

 
• Terminal Bas Nadi Kota,Bandar Pusat Jengka
 
 
 
• Jabatan Bekalan Air Pahang Office
 
 
 
• Pusat Latihan Pertahanan Awam (PULAPA)
 
 
 
• Hotel Issoria Jengka
 
 
 
• Rumah Tamu Dona Long (www.donalong.blogspot.com)
 
 
 
• Travel Agent for flight ticket (Airasia,MAS,Fireflys and etc.)

 

 

However, all these facilities are not enough to fulfill the needs and demands from Jengka society.

The major facilities that existed are lack in some elements such as customer care services, hygienic area, not many choices were offered and etc. As example, the road contion in Jengka is so severe until it has caused so many accidents throughout the years.

 

The factor that contribute to this problem is vehicle overload, flood, and most importantly, the road paving process is not done properly. It had cause the major accident, the vehicle lost their control over their vehicle while driving, cause the vehicle damaged. But sadly, this problem also means that its difficult for the residents in Jengka to travel in their own town

 

Another problem that need attention is the Lack of street lamp. This is because the authority did not pay attention to the facilities. This problem had cause the accident and limited visibility to drivers and pedestrians, particularly at night and therefore, increase the risk of an accident.

As for the solution, we believe that every party should play their roles in making Jengka a better place for living. The Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR) should be more aware and response quickly to any facilities problem in Jengka. They must responsible to repair the road that damaged and put the limited load for heavy vehicles so that the road will be safe for the resident to use. The authorities must do the observation and give additional of street lamp at Jengka to prevent accident in Jengka especially at nights.

 

 

 

 

Insufficient hypermarket in Bandar Jengka

Bandar Pusat Jengka or Jengka Town Centre is a main town in Pahang, Malaysia. Bandar Pusat Jengka is the centre of the Jengka Triangle which is known as FELDA Jengka. The Jengka Triangle (Malay: Segitiga Jengka), which is the largest FELDA settlement in Malaysia, is one of the successful Malaysian government's project to eradicate poverty among its citizen.

Insufficient hypermarket is a common problem in Jengka.

Every day, many of us go out to buy daily necessities. However, in Jengka not many options were offered. This happens due to lack of hypermarket that providing basic necessities to meet the needs and demands of Jengka society.

The existing hypermarket, which is U-Mart and Bumi Maju that located in the heart of Jengka cannot fulfill the demand from Jengka society that consist of rapidly increasing especially since Universiti Teknologi Mara have been established in Jengka.

Businessman do not want to open a business due to business monopoly in Jengka, limited diversity of goods for consumer to choose in Jengka, did not get good respond and support from society for new businessman who want to set up the business in Jengka. Due to this problem, the buyer power will be reduced or limited due to the lack of choice of goods .No competitor among businessman in Jengka and it will effect the market in Jengka and monopoly by the main supermarket that already existed in Jengka.

 

Protest banner by Jengka residents stating that they are against the effort to bring in non Malays business into Bandar Jengka.

 

 

For the solution, we believe that the businessman should increase the variety of goods, attract more outside businessman to set up their business in Jengka, build more hyper market and provide more service shop in Jengka to fulfill the demand from local household. They really should expand their horizon and try to enhance the quality of goods and services provided by them.
