Tun Dr Mahathir” S Leadership Patterns And The Success Story Of Malaysia

Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad came into power as the Prime Minister of Malaysia for the second time in May 2018. At 92, he was the eldest Head of Government in the world. His first term in Office was from 1981 to 2003, after which he resigned and handed the post to his deputy, Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. This paper focuses on his leadership patterns and how they influenced Malaysia's development programmes and her foreign policy. Generally, leadership patterns refer to the leaders' behavioral patterns, and how these leaders construct their vision, mission and ideas for the development of their country apart from how to attract their followers. Good and honest leaders with high integrity are highly demanded in developing countries like Malaysia. Past research findings show that a country's leadership has strong influence on the country's socioeconomic progress and development. Tun Dr Mahathir's wisdom, high intellectual powers, leadership and management skills as well as his ways of doing things have impressed Malaysians, allowing them to trust and follow his instructions. He is a unique person with charismatic and effective leadership styles, apart from being an international relations expert.

The personality of an individual can actually be expressed in many ways, such as the gestures, physical activities, emotions, feelings, attitudes that can be seen over a period of time.

A comparative study on antioxidant properties of two phyllanthus species growing in Bangladesh

A comparative study of antioxidant properties on two varieties of Phyllanthus (Phyllanthus niruiri L. & Phyllanthus urinaria L. leaves) growing in Bangladesh was done in the present study. Five complimentary test methods namely DPPH free radical scavenging activity, reducing power assay, total antioxidant capacity, total phenolic and flavonoid contents determination were used for the evaluation of antioxidant properties of two species of Phyllanthus. In the present investigation for the evaluation of antioxidant activities the concentration is expressed by the ratio of crude sample per solvent volume instead of extract weight per solvent volume. Based on these concentrations the investigated P. niruri L. and P. urinaria L. leaves extracts exhibited significant results. At 2 mg/ml concentration DPPH radical scavenging capacity of the methanol extract of both the plants was found to show significant (> 90%) activity which is comparable to Ascorbic acid and BHA. In case of reducing power tests for both the extract, the activity of P. urinaria is comparable to that of BHA and AA and that of P. niruiri is comparable to BHA. P. niruiri showed better antioxidant potential than that of P. urinaria based on the observed results of their corresponding methanol extract.
