Abstract:

Children and Adolescent Literature have yet to find its precise definition in the corpus of Modern Malay Literature. In this regard, the works whose characters consist of adults continue to be enjoyed by children until they eventually complicate the definition of Children’s Literature. Thus, many Western folklore works such as Cinderella, Rapunzel, and others have become the focus of children's reading in Malaysia. Something needs to be done so that reading materials that encounter the East and Islamic values are served to these young people. Therefore, Hikayat Literature through the text of t

Abstract:

In the folklore of emerging markets, there is a popular belief that bubbles are inevitable. In this paper, our objective is to estimate a state-space model for rational bubbles in selected Asian economies with the aid of the Kalman Filter. For each economy, we derive a possible picture of the bubble formation process that is implied by the state-space formulation. The estimation is based on the rational valuation formula for stock prices. Our results provide a possible way of defining the presence of rational bubbles in the stock markets of Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, and Malaysia.
