DI satu sudut sebuah kedai buku, kelihatan sekumpulan anak muda tekun meneliti dan membelek beberapa buah buku yang berada di hadapan mereka. Kebanyakan mereka memilih buku bergenre serius seperti motivasi, perniagaan, sastera dan sebagainya.

Malah, wajah masing-masing juga begitu teruja apabila melihat deretan buku koleksi terbaharu yang dipamerkan di rak-rak buku kedai tersebut.

Satu persatu buku itu dicapai lantas lembaran demi lembaran diselak bagi mengetahui sekali imbas tentang kandungan yang terdapat di dalamnya.

Sesekali ada dalam kalangan mereka yang berkongsi buku yang diminati sambil melahirkan pendapat mengenai keistimewaan karya penulisan berkenaan.

Itu antara situasi spontan yang dapat disaksikan apabila insan-insan penting sebuah gerakan bawah tanah dikenali sebagai Baca@ yang bermatlamat mengajak masyarakat menyuburkan tabiat membaca tanpa mengira usia berkumpul di bawah satu bumbung.

Salah seorang pengasasnya, Zamri Mohamad, 32, berkata, gerakan Baca@ merupakan satu idea spontan yang timbul sewaktu mengadakan perbincangan ringkas bersama rakan-rakan di sebuah bilik latihan kecil Learning Station di Wangsa Melawati, Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur awal Januari tahun lalu.

Dalam perbincangan tersebut, mereka sepakat memilih pengangkutan awam Transit Aliran Ringan (LRT) sebagai wadah atau platform untuk memulakan gerakan murni itu.

“Perkataan LRT timbul dalam perbualan membabitkan isu-isu sekitar yang berbangkit dan berkaitan mencipta satu kelainan positif dalam masyarakat. Satu kelainan yang baik dan memberi kesan positif pada semua. Juga satu kelainan yang mendorong orang lain bersama-sama dalam satu kumpulan untuk menyuarakannya.

“Daripada situlah lahirnya gerakan Baca@LRT iaitu satu usaha gila-gila yang melibatkan penggemar buku dan pendukung bahan bacaan berkualiti mempromosikan budaya membaca dalam kalangan masyarakat,” jelas Zamri yang merupakan penulis buku sepenuh masa dan pengasas kursus penulisan.com ketika ditemui Kosmo! di Petaling Jaya baru-baru ini.

Keberanian luar biasa

Selain Zamri, gerakan tersebut turut diasaskan oleh Irfan Jani, 32, pemilik syarikat penerbitan Mazni Irfan Sdn. Bhd., Izwan Wahab, 32, seorang pengatur cara sistem dan Haeqal Zulkarnain, 31, yang bertindak sebagai pengarang.

Bagi mereka berempat, kempen membaca sebenarnya memerlukan suntikan lebih segar, bersifat spontan dan diadakan tanpa acara rasmi seperti memotong reben, menjemput tetamu kehormat dan sebagainya.

Sebaliknya, ia satu usaha gila-gila yang memerlukan keberanian luar biasa untuk melakukannya bersama bagi memberi mesej jelas kepada orang ramai terhadap apa yang mereka percaya.

Rentetan daripada itu, rangkaian laman sosial Facebook menjadi platform gerakan ini diasaskan dengan penganjuran acara sulung Baca@LRT pada 16 Januari 2010 yang mencatat sejarah tersendiri.

“Walaupun kami hanya menyasarkan 70 peserta untuk hadir dalam aktiviti sulung membaca di dalam LRT, tetapi jumlah yang hadir melebihi jangkaan. Seramai 150 peserta hadir memberikan sokongan. Acara itu bermula dari terminal LRT Putra, Gombak ke stesen Kelana Jaya,” terang Zamri sambil memberitahu tagline gerakan Baca@ adalah Membaca itu Cool.

Rentetan daripada sambutan yang menggalakkan terhadap kempen membaca tersebut, beberapa individu kemudian tampil dengan idea mengasaskan kumpulan tertentu di bawah gerakan Baca@ bagi meluaskan lagi ruang lingkup mereka.

Ruang bacaan

Ini termasuklah penubuhan kumpulan Baca@Komuter, Baca@Sekolah, Baca@Masjid, Baca@Perhentian Bas, Baca@Hutan dan sebagainya.

Bagi Azzah Abdul Rahman, 32, pengasas kumpulan Baca@Komuter dan Baca@Sekolah, dia banyak menggerakkan kumpulan ini di sekitar Negeri Sembilan.

“Program Baca@Komuter contohnya diadakan sebagai sambungan daripada projek Baca@LRT yang khusus untuk masyarakat di bandar. Tetapi di dalam komuter yang menghubungkan antara bandar, masa penumpang berada di dalamnya lebih panjang.

“Acara pertama di bawah gerakan Baca@Komuter telah kami anjurkan pada 20 Februari 2011 dengan perjalanan dari Seremban ke Kuala Lumpur Sentral dan KLCC. Program ini kami adakan dengan kerjasama Kelab Tidur Dengan Buku (KTDB),” jelas Azzah yang juga merupakan seorang penulis.

Tambahnya, melalui kumpulan Baca@Sekolah pula, ia mempunyai objektif untuk membantu rumah-rumah kebajikan mewujudkan ruang bacaan mereka sendiri. Melalui kumpulan ini, mereka berjaya melaksanakan dua program amal iaitu di Rembau, Negeri Sembilan dan Yayasan al-Jenderami di Selangor.

“Melalui program tersebut, kami menyumbang buku daripada dana kutipan sendiri dan sumbangan syarikat tertentu. Apa yang pasti, pihak kami akan memberi buku-buku baru kepada mereka kerana mahu mewujudkan ruang bacaan terbaik untuk anak-anak tersebut.

“Dalam konteks sumbangan, kami tidak menerima wang tunai sebaliknya hanya buku semata-mata. Jika mahu melihat aktiviti kami, anda boleh berbuat demikian dengan melayari Facebook/baca@sekolah dan baca@komuter,” kata pemilik kedai buku BACHA di Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan itu.

Sementara itu, Asyraff Hafdzan Abdullah, 29, memberitahu, apabila melihat kejayaan rakan-rakan dalam gerakan Baca@ ini, dia terus mendapat idea untuk mewujudkan pula kumpulan Baca@Masjid.

Ujar Asyraff, dia mendapat inspirasi daripada seorang ibu tunggal yang dikenali sebagai Ibu Kartini yang berusaha membina sebuah masjid di Johor. Kegigihan wanita itu berusaha selama lima tahun akhirnya membuahkan hasil dan dia berjaya mendirikan sebuah masjid yang diimpikan.

Melabel buku

“Kisah ini diceritakan oleh sahabat saya, Irfan Jani dan selepas mengadakan perbincangan di koridor sekolah, saya terus mendapat ilham untuk menubuhkan gerakan Baca@Masjid bermula Disember tahun lalu,” katanya.

Antara aktiviti yang dilakukan termasuklah projek menyusun dan melabel buku di Masjid Bukit Indah, Ampang.

“Kita sedia maklum buku-buku agama mempunyai pelbagai bidang dan disiplin. Jadi, ia memerlukan kepada kepakaran untuk menyusun bahan bacaan tersebut untuk kemudahan para jemaah.

“Aktiviti ini turut dibantu oleh sukarelawan dan ahli kumpulan Baca@Masjid. Mereka juga ada menyumbang beberapa kotak buku bercorak agama kepada pihak masjid,” tutur Asyraff.

Bagi perancangan akan datang, pihaknya akan cuba mewujudkan skim wakaf Baca@Masjid kepada mereka yang berminat. Cuma, ia bukan sekadar mewakafkan al-Quran atau buku-buku agama tetapi juga melibatkan barang keperluan seperti sejadah, telekung atau kit pengurusan jenazah.

Seorang lagi rakan Zamri, Iskandar Syah Ismail, 35, pula bertindak mengasaskan penubuhan perpustakaan sebenar di rumah-rumah anak yatim bermula sejak tahun 2007 dengan cara menyumbang buku.

Hingga kini, mereka telah berjaya menyiapkan sudut perpustakaan di 16 buah rumah anak yatim di seluruh negara.

2011-06-07T14:47:00.005+08:00

PAUH PUTRA, 5 Jun – Sebagai sebuah universiti kejuruteraan Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) berasa sangat bertuah hari ini apabila buat julung kalinya menerima kemasukan pelajar Orang Asli.

Sebelum ini UniMAP tidak pernah memiliki pelajar Orang Asli dan Amri A/L Amit Joyo yang berasal dari Asli Senai, Tapah Perak merupakan pelajar Orang Asli pertama yang mendaftar di UniMAP sempena hari Pendaftaran Pelajar Diploma Sidang Akademik 2011/2012 di Kampus Alam, Pauh Putra ,di sini.

Anak kedua dari empat beradik itu bercita-cita menjadi seorang jurutera yang berjaya suatu hari nanti.Bercakap kepada pemberita, Amri berkata beliau merupakan ahli keluarga yang pertama melanjutkan pengajian di Institusi Pengajian Tinggi (IPT) dan berazam akan melakukan yang terbaik serta menjadi contoh kepada adik-adiknya yang lain.

“Saya sangat gembira kerana diterima sebagai pelajar UniMAP dan berharap akan menjadi antara pelajar terbaik UniMAP,”katanya.Kira-kira 320 pelajar Diploma telah mendaftar di UniMAP bagi mengisi enam program diploma yang ditawarkan iaitu Diploma Kejuruteraan Mikroelektronik, Kejuruteraan Komputer, Kejuruteraan Mekatronik, Kejuruteraan Elektrik, Kejuruteraan Pembuatan dan Kejuruteraan Metalurgi.

Sementara itu, bagi pasangan kembar seiras, Siti Nur’aini dan Siti Nur’aina Mohd Zain, peluang melanjutkan pengajian di universiti yang sama adalah satu pengalaman yang sangat indah dan akan dimanfaatkan sebaiknya.

Nur’aini berkata, beliau dan adiknya adalah pasangan kembar yang tidak pernah berenggang sejak kecil lagi dan berasa lebih bertuah kerana ditawarkan program pengajian yang sama iaitu Diploma Kejuruteraan Pembuatan.

“Ini adalah satu motivasi kepada kami berdua untuk terus berusaha menempa kejayaan,” kata Nur’aina.Naib Canselor UniMAP, Brig. Jen. Dato’ Prof Dr Kamarudin Hussin dalam ucapannya ketika sesi taklimat waris menyeru agar ibu bapa sentiasa menyemaikan perasaan kasih sayang dan mengambil berat terhadap anak-anak kerana ini adalah kunci kejayaan mereka.“Pensyarah adalah tenaga pengajar yang membantu pelajar memperoleh kejayaan tetapi ibu bapa adalah pendorong utama yang memainkan peranan penting dalam memberi motivasi kepada para pelajar ini.

Walaupun berada jauh dimata, ibu bapa boleh menggunakan perkhidmatan internet seperti facebook, email atau SMS (Senyum, Mesra, Salam) untuk saling berhubung dan secara tidak langsung anak-anak akan rasa dihargai,”katanya.

Turut hadir, Timbalan Naib Canselor Akademik dan Antarabangsa, Prof Zul Azhar Zahid Jamal , Dekan Akademik, Prof Ir Dr Rezuwan Haji Kamaruddin dan Dekan Hal Ehwal Pelajar dan Alumni, Encik Razli Ahmad.

How to Open a New Book

2011-05-25T13:12:00.000+08:00

Semakin Ramai Rakyat Malaysia Suka Membaca

2011-05-25T12:59:00.003+08:00

KUALA LUMPUR: Budaya membaca di kalangan rakyat Malaysia semakin meningkat kepada lapan hingga 12 buku setahun pada tahun lalu berbanding hanya dua buku pada 1996.

Ketua Pengarah Perpustakaan Negara, Datuk Raslin Abu Bakar berkata, peningkatan itu dipengaruhi oleh pertambahan syarikat penerbitan buku di negara ini selain peningkatan jumlah bahan bacaan.

"Sebanyak 8,877 syarikat penerbit dengan 23,181 judul terbitan kerajaan dan 167,704 terbitan bukan kerajaan pada tahun lalu.

"Dalam senarai yang dikeluarkan Pertubuhan Pendidikan, Saintifik dan Kebudayaan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (Unesco) berhubung penerbitan buku, Malaysia menduduki tangga ke-16 dunia daripada 110 negara," katanya pada sidang media Pesta Buku ReadMalaysia 2011 di sini pada Selasa.

Raslin berkata, berdasarkan kajian pada tahun lalu terdapat trend positif di kalangan pembaca berusia 10 tahun dan ke atas.

Selain itu, katanya, bahan bacaan dalam bidang bahasa seperti novel berbentuk fiksyen dan bukan fiksyen mendapat sambutan menggalakkan apabila terjual sehingga 60 peratus selain kesusasteraan dan agama.

"Jika dulu novel bahasa Malaysia sering diletakkan di rak bahagian belakang, tapi saya lihat bahan bacaan itu pada hari ini turut diminati masyarakat bukan Melayu.

"Perubahan budaya membaca novel di kalangan pembaca Cina dan India, jelas membuktikan bahasa Malaysia semakin diterima ramai sekaligus membantu usaha kerajaan untuk memartabatkan bahasa rasmi negara itu," jelasnya.

Dalam pada itu, Ketua Pengarah Pusat Konvensyen dan Pameran Mines Malaysia, H.T Khor berkata, Pesta Buku ReadMalaysia 2011 dijadualkan berlangsung selama 10 hari di The Mines Resort City, Seri Kembangan, Selangor bermula 27 Mei hingga 5 Jun ini.

"Pada tahun lalu, seramai 340,000 pengunjung membanjiri pusat konvensyen di sini.
"Kami mensasarkan seramai 400,000 pengunjung berdasarkan pertambahan gerai yang dijangka dapat menjadi tarikan pada kali ini," ujarnya.

Pesta ReadMalaysia edisi ketiga tahun ini akan menghiburkan pengunjung dengan kehadiran duta ReadMalaysia iaitu watak animasi popular Upin dan Ipin selain sesi bertemu angkasawan negara, Datuk Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor Sheikh Mustapha.

"The Ranking Web of World Repositories" - UniMAP Library Digital Repository - 239 Ranking Of The World

2011-03-14T14:42:00.003+08:00

The "The Ranking Web of World repositories" is an initiative of the Cybermetrics Lab, a research group belonging to the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), the largest public research body in Spain.

CSIC is among the first basic research organizations in Europe. The CSIC consisted in 2006 of 126 centers and institutes distributed throughout Spain.

CSIC is attached to the Ministry of Education and its main objective is to promote scientific research as to improve the progress of the scientific and technological level of the country which will contribute to increase the welfare of the citizens.

CSIC also plays an important role in the formation of new researchers and technicians in the different aspects of the science and the technology.

The organization collaborates with other institutions of the Spanish R&D system (universities, autonomous governs, other public and private research organisms) and with social, economic, national or foreign agents to which contributes with its research capacity and human and material resources in the development of research projects or under the form of consultancy and scientific and technical support. CSIC was founded in 1939 from a previous body, the Junta para la Ampliación de Estudios e Investigaciones Científicas created in 1907 under the leadership of the Spanish Nobel Prize Prof. Ramón y Cajal.

The laboratory is located at the Centro de Ciencias Humanas y Sociales (CCHS). This center started during 2007 and originated from the merge in one place of the different centers and institutes devoted to the Social and Humanity Sciences that belongs to the CSIC and were located in Madrid.

The Cybermetrics Lab, part of the CCHS - CSIC, is devoted to the quantitative analysis of the Internet and Web contents specially those related to the processes of generation and scholarly communication of scientific knowledge. This is a new emerging discipline that has been called Cybermetrics (our team developed and publishes the free electronic journal Cybermetrics since 1997) or Webometrics.

The Cybermetrics Lab using quantitative methods has designed and applied indicators that allow us to measure the scientific activity on the Web. The cybermetric indicators are useful to evaluate science and technology and they are the perfect complement to the results obtained with bibliometric methods in scientometric studies.

The specific areas of research include:

Development of Web indicators to be applied on the areas of the Spanish, European, Latinamerican and World R&D
Quantitative studies about the scientific communication through electronic journals and repositories, and the impact of the Open Access initiatives.
Development of indicators about resources in the Society of Information
Indicators and social networks visualization on the Web with friendly, dynamic and interactive graphic interfaces
Desing and evaluation of documental analysis techniques of Web resources
Genre studies applied to the scholar activity on the Web
Development of applied cybermetrics techniques based on the positioning on search engines of Web domains
Analysis of the information usage through Web data mining of log files

Lokasi Kedai Buku Terbaik..

2011-03-02T10:01:00.006+08:00

PENGGEMAR buku adakalanya bukan sahaja cerewet memilih buku tetapi juga lokasi terbaik mencari buku. Bagi yang mementingkan kualiti dan pilihan, mereka lazimnya akan mencari kedai buku yang besar dan selesa. Kepada yang mempunyai bajet terhad, akan ke kedai buku terpakai. Trend terkini ialah memesan buku secara talian yang amat sesuai bagi mereka yang sibuk dan tidak berkesempatan ke kedai buku.

Bagi mencari dan mendapatkan cadangan lokasi pembelian buku terbaik khususnya di Lembah Klang, penulis melayari beberapa laman forum dalam talian dan blog pembaca tegar.
Sebahagian besar pembeli buku memilih Kinokuniya di Suria KLCC atau BookXcess di Amcorp Mall Petaling Jaya untuk membeli buku baru.

Bagi pencari buku-buku terpakai pula, gudang jualan Payless Book di Dataran Milennium Petaling Jaya, Junk Bookstore di Jalan Tun H.S. Lee dan tingkat atas Pasar Chowrasta, Pulau Pinang disebut-sebut sebagai lokasi terbaik pilihan mereka.
Populariti Kinokuniya atau Kino di kalangan kebanyakan rakyat Malaysia mungkin dibantu oleh lokasi yang sangat strategik.

Suria KLCC mudah diakses memandangkan ia mempunyai stesen LRT dan tempat letak kereta bawah tanah yang luas. Meneliti komen pembaca dalam forum dan blog masing-masing, empat faktor dapat dirumus yang menjadikan Kino sangat digemari ramai iaitu pilihan buku, persekitaran, layanan pekerja dan khidmat dalam talian.

Gudang buku dua tingkat itu menawarkan pilihan tajuk buku yang sangat banyak dengan kepelbagaian genre yang mampu memuaskan keperluan bacaan kebanyakan pembaca di Malaysia. Pengurus Hal Ehwal Korporat Kino, Theresa Chong berkata, gudang itu menyediakan sekurang-kurangnya 250,000 judul buku pada satu-satu masa, meskipun beliau tidak pasti sama ada angka itu adalah koleksi jualan buku terbesar negara.

Pengunjung kali pertama akan segera menyedari betapa luas pilihan buku yang ditawar oleh gudang buku yang mengkhususkan tingkat atas kepada naskhah seni dan sastera. Jika terasa rambang mata, pengunjung tidak perlu khuatir kerana tajuk-tajuk buku di Kino dikatalogkan dengan baik, kemas dan tersusun sekali gus memudahkan pengunjung mencari genre pilihan dengan cepat.

Meneliti sampel

Kino mengamalkan konsep rak buku terbuka. Pengunjung boleh memilih dan membaca sebanyak mungkin buku-buku yang dibuka atau sampel sebelum membuat pembelian.
Seorang pengunjung mengakui perasaan selesa itulah yang menjadikan Kino lokasi pilihan untuk beliau meluangkan masa berkualiti dengan yang tersayang pada hujung minggu.

“Pekerja Kino tidak akan mengganggu meskipun pengunjung mengambil masa seharian untuk memilih buku, berbeza dengan layanan pekerja di sesetengah kedai buku tempatan yang sering mengekori sambil merenung menyebabkan kita terasa dilayan bak pencuri,” luahnya dalam satu laman forum.

Seorang pengunjung yang lain pula selesa membenarkan anak-anaknya berlegar di dalam Kino selama yang mereka mahu kerana yakin dengan tahap keselamatan dan kebersihan gudang buku itu.

“Saya pasti mereka tidak akan sesat, lagipun rak-rak buku yang rendah dan mesra kanak-kanak memudahkan mereka dipantau dari jauh selain membolehkan mereka mencari sendiri naskhah pilihan tanpa bantuan orang dewasa,” katanya.

Pengemar buku terutama dari luar Lembah Klang mungkin menghadapi masalah mencari buku idaman memandangkan pilihan kedai buku yang terhad di kawasan masing-masing.
Di sinilah letaknya kepentingan perkhidmatan pembelian buku dalam talian Kino yang dinamakan BookwebMalaysia.

Seorang penulis blog dari Ipoh, Perak memuji perkhidmatan BookwebMalaysia yang dianggapnya lebih cekap dan pantas, selain kos penghantaran murah berbanding pesanan buku melalui peruncit dalam talian utama dunia, Amazon.com.

Kata Chong, setiap pesanan buku akan diproses pada waktu yang sama setiap hari bagi memastikan pesanan tiba kepada pembeli dalam tempoh selewat-lewatnya dua hari dengan kos hanya RM8 untuk setiap penghantaran dan percuma jika jumlah buku berharga RM300.

Buku mahal

“Sambutan terhadap perkhidmatan ini amat memberangsangkan dan meningkat setiap bulan,” katanya.

Sambil meluahkan rasa penghargaan kepada masyarakat yang mempercayai khidmat Kino, beliau tidak menafikan ada kemungkinan mereka akan membuka cawangan yang baru jika menemui peluang dan lokasi yang sesuai. Penulis menyedari harga-harga buku yang menarik memang mahal untuk golongan pekerja kelas pertengahan, malah ia boleh dianggap bagai satu kemewahan jika ada wang kepada mereka yang berpendapatan rendah.

Ini menyebabkan ramai yang tidak mampu berbelanja bagi memenuhi keinginan membaca kerana perlu menyimpan duit untuk keperluan hidup yang lebih penting. Bagaimanapun, semasa meninjau-ninjau di Amcorp Mall baru-baru ini, penulis terpandang sebuah buku bergambar kulit tebal Antarctica: A Call to Action yang dijual pada harga RM17.90 sedangkan harga asal yang tertera di kulit buku ialah RM111.00.

Ia kedengaran mustahil, tetapi kedai buku BookXcess memang menjual buku-buku baru berbahasa Inggeris dengan potongan harga sekurang-kurangnya 50 peratus daripada harga asal. Ia lebih berbaloi jika dibandingkan dengan banyak kedai buku terpakai yang pernah penulis lawati. Jumlah judul buku di BookXcess mungkin hanya sekitar 10,000 judul yang dibahagikan kepada fiksyen, bukan fiksyen, remaja dan kanak-kanak, tetapi ia turut menempatkan banyak tajuk popular atau karya penulis ternama.

Ia termasuk karya laris novelis terkemuka seperti Dan Brown, Sidney Sheldon, Cecelia Aher, Danielle Steel, John Grisham dan Sophie Kinsella. Ada juga karya klasik dari Agatha Christie, Charles Dicken, J.R.R. Tolkien, Jane Austen, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle serta William Shakespeare.
Golongan muda boleh memilih buku-buku popular seperti siri Twilight, Cirque Du Freak, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, The Vampire Diaries selain Nancy Drew dan The Hardy Boys.
Pengunjung dewasa pula boleh memilih pelbagai genre buku yang bersesuaian dengan minat termasuk biografi, sejarah, hobi malah pelbagai buku masakan terkini chef-chef selebriti termasuk Martin Yan, Ramsey Gordon, Jamie Oliver dan lain-lain.

Pastinya peminat buku teruja apabila melihat perbezaan harga yang begitu besar di antara harga jual dan dan harga runcit sebenar. Merungkai pertanyaan penulis, pemilik BookXcess, Andrew Yap menjelaskan, kedai itu menjual buku-buku berlebihan atau buku terlebih cetak.

“Buku berlebihan adalah buku-buku yang tidak dapat dijual dan dipulangkan semula oleh pengedar, manakala buku lebihan cetakan berlaku apabila penerbit terbuat anggaran permintaan yang lebih tinggi berbanding permintaan sebenar,” jelasnya ketika ditemui baru-baru ini.

Menurut beliau, syarikat penerbitan termasuk nama terkenal seperti Bloomsbury, HarperCollins, Headline-Hodder, Random House, Paragon, Penguin dan Walker perlu mengosongkan gudang mereka untuk terbitan terbaru. Ini bermakna, lebihan stok itu perlu dijual pada harga yang sangat rendah, dan memungkinkan buku-buku laris terkini untuk muncul di kedai itu dalam tempoh hanya beberapa bulan selepas diterbitkan.

Untuk kemudahan pengunjung, BookXcess menyediakan sistem pangkalan data yang baik sama ada menerusi laman web atau laman sosial Facebook mereka. – Bernama

Pakaian Biarlah Sesuai Dengan Status Pelajar.

2011-02-11T10:10:00.005+08:00

DULU, etika berpakaian di institusi pengajian tinggi (IPT) jarang diberi perhatian khusus kerana mahasiswa bergaya mengikut kesesuaian yang boleh diterima norma masyarakat.

Mereka meletakkan matlamat menjejakkan kaki di IPT untuk menuntut ilmu dan mengubah nasib keluarga dan tidak terlalu terdedah kepada aliran fesyen masa kini.

Pakaian sopan serta mudah disesuaikan dengan semua situasi menjadi pilihan sementara jika berpakaian kurang sesuai dan pelik dipandang serong serta dilabel dengan tanggapan negatif.

Bagaimanapun, kini etika berpakaian di kalangan mahasiswa mula menjadi bualan masyarakat dan sering diperkatakan pelbagai pihak kerana dikatakan sudah semakin melampau.

Bukan saja tidak mengikut tertib peraturan ditetapkan institusi, malah berani pula berpakaian seksi yang ternyata melanggar batas maruah individu dan menyakitkan mata masyarakat. Tidak kurang pula berpakaian pelik atas nama fesyen.

Ini sekali gus mencalar nama baik institusi, keluarga dan negara selain mengundang persepsi negatif umum tingkah laku mahasiswa di menara gading yang sepatutnya menjadi golongan contoh.

Persoalannya, adakah etika berpakaian ditetapkan selama ini sudah tidak bersesuaian dengan jiwa mahasiswa yang kebanyakannya terdiri daripada generasi muda yang moden dan fanatik terhadap fesyen?

Adakah kurangnya pemantauan masyarakat dan institusi pengajian menjadikan mereka semakin berani melanggar peraturan, sekali gus menggunakan alasan hak sebagai perisai daripada dikenakan tindakan?

Ketua program Jabatan Seni Reka Fesyen, Fakulti Seni Lukis dan Seni Reka Universiti Teknologi Mara ( UiTM), Anas Musavir berkata, mahasiswa perlu bijak dan akur terhadap peraturan ditetapkan serta jangan menggunakan alasan hak sebagai ‘menghalalkan’ segala perbuatan.

Menurutnya, setiap institusi mempunyai peraturan etika berpakaian wajib diikuti bagi membezakan mereka sebagai warga berpendidikan tinggi, selain mencerminkan budaya ilmu.

“Institusi tidak pernah menghalang, namun �biarlah mengikut garis panduan ditetapkan, apatah lagi etika berpakaian itu mencerminkan kualiti diri dan institusi diwakili.

“Sebagai pusat pembudayaan ilmu, IPT mengharapkan warganya kelihatan profesional, terpelajar serta diiktiraf masyarakat.

“Bayangkan kalau mereka berpakaian selekeh, tidak senonoh atau sakit mata memandang, apakah tanggapan orang luar?

“Etika berpakaian bukan untuk menafikan hak individu tapi lebih kepada mendidik

dan mendisiplinkan juga �sebagai proses awal menyiap�kan mereka mengikut peraturan selari keperluan industri pekerjaan. IPT bukan tempat untuk bergaya keterlaluan,” katanya.

Setiap mahasiswa IPT tertakluk kepada peraturan berpakaian yang sudah ditetapkan iaitu kemas dan sopan.

Bagi lelaki, digalakkan memakai pakaian kasual dengan seluar panjang dan baju kemeja apabila ke kuliah atau berbaju kebangsaan.

Perempuan pula lebih manis berbaju kurung, berpakaian longgar dan bersesuaian untuk ke kuliah mahu pun ketika melaksanakan tugasan luar. Dilarang memakai selipar, berbaju jarang dan ketat, seluar pendek, seluar ketat, jeans lusuh, skirt pendek dan kemeja-T berkolar bulat.

Ditanya mengapa mahasiswa hari ini kian berani berpakaian tidak sepatutnya hingga ‘menyakitkan’ mata memandang, beliau berkata, faktor budaya dan mudahnya memperoleh pelbagai perkembangan terkini dunia fesyen melalui media menjadi penyumbang utama.

“Budaya masyarakat yang �selalu bersikap terbuka dan ‘’tidak kisah’ menyebabkan �mereka semakin berani berpakaian sesuka hati. Mala,h ada juga IPT tidak mengambil tindakan terhadap pelajar yang melanggar peraturan dengan alasan tertentu, sekali gus �menjadikan mereka besar kepala.

“Kesalahan tidak boleh diletakkan pada satu pihak semata - mata, yang cuai perlu ditegur dan diperbetulkan. Masalahnya, bukan semua mahu memikul tanggungjawab itu, justeru yang salah terus melakukan kesalahan.

“Apatah lagi dengan segala kemudahan mengikuti aliran fesyen terkini menyebabkan fesyen tidak bersesuaian turut dipakai. Ini impak yang kurang baik kerana bukan saja boleh merosakkan perjalanan ilmu, malah mampu memberi pengaruh negatif kepada orang lain,” katanya mengakui mahasiswa wanita dan lelaki kini semakin taksub dengan gaya fesyen yang tidak mencerminkan diri mereka sebagai warga terpelajar.

Beliau berkata, meskipun ada mengatakan fesyen itu hak individu tapi tidak bermakna boleh melanggar peraturan sesuka hati.

Amat menyedihkan apabila mahasiswa yang diiktiraf golongan cerdik pandai menjadi hamba fesyen terutama yang tidak senonoh.

“Misalnya, ada mahasiswa lelaki kini ‘bertukar’ karakter seperti perempuan dengan memakai gincu atau berskaf, begitu juga sebaliknya. Inikah golongan yang boleh disandarkan harapan? Fenomena ini kian menakutkan,” katanya.

Katanya, berfesyen tidak salah namun, perlu mengikut lunas tertentu supaya tidak mencalar maruah diri serta institusi yang selama ini berusaha memberi imej terbaik kepada masyarakat.

“Fesyen adalah subjektif dan fleksibel mengikut kehendak masing-masing, namun biarlah ada kesopanan serta tidak menjolok mata selain boleh mendatangkan masalah kemudian hari.

“Andaian peribadi tidak boleh diukur melalui cara berpakaian, namun interpretasi awal dibuat melaluinya. Dengan kata lain, pakaian melambangkan cermin diri seseorang. Mahasiswa perlu akur, institusi bukan tempat untuk melawa atau lawan bergaya tapi menuntut ilmu,” katanya.

Bagaimanapun, beliau mengakui sebahagian besar mahasiswa tahu meletakkan kepentingan dan matlamat utama berada di IPT selain tidak terlalu taksub pada kehendak fesyen semasa.

“Menggayakan sebarang fesyen sama ada moden atau tradisional tidak salah, namun biarlah mengikut etika ditetapkan. Bukan melakukannya untuk institusi semata-mata, malah lebih penting demi menjaga peribadi dan maruah diri daripada pandangan serong masyarakat.

“Janganlah mencari glamor dengan berfesyen kerana ditakuti kalau tersilap langkah, buruk padahnya,” katanya.

Mahasiswa Management and Science University (MSU), �Muhammad Redzwan Ismail berkata, kebanyakan mahasiswa suka berfesyen kerana terikut gaya idola mereka meskipun sedar ia bertentangan dengan etika berpakaian ditetapkan IPT.

“Jiwa muda sentiasa ingin bersaing dan suka pada sesuatu yang cantik, malah ada menggunakan fesyen untuk meraih perhatian atau sokongan rakan lain. Mungkin juga ingin menutup kelemahan diri.

“Pendapat saya, tidak salah jika ingin bergaya, namun biarlah berpada-pada. Lebih penting, jaga nama baik institusi,” katanya.
