Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Every country as a unique entity reveals, communicates and showcase to others without physical contact through religion, economy, politics and education. These four words are relative in nature except useful applicability to citizens, effect of which will increase immigration to such a country. Politics is a driving force that determines the direction (positive or negative) of religionand economy. Whenpolitics (act of governance) is not educationally oriented, it tends to produce narrowness in the acts and practices of religion and economy which are mostly use for personal enrichment and political leader‘slong-term stagnancy in individual empowerment and eventual collapse of such dynasty because it avoids contributions and construct criticisms.History and experiences had shown that strongly reliance on religion, economy and politics especially deeply rooted in religion is open irreparable mistakes, disintegration. Meanwhile a truth discovered through education has a rich implication for the present and future. Religion, economy and politics are mostly use as instruments to achieve perpetual hold –on to power, positions and influences which encourages monopolization of national resources. The theory upon which this paper rests upon is functionalist/ functionalism theory in which the society remains relatively stable. Education is a secondary agent of socialization which will instill values of competition, equality and individualism. Therefore, functional education/education should be use as transformer in a country for useful application of religion, economy and politics for long-termsustenance of excellence in a Globalised Malay and Islamic World.
