The migration of Javanese Muslim community to Malaysia in the past was not only dominated by groups of workers such as labours and miners but also from religious Muslim groups (¬ulama). Javanese ulama as Muslim religious scholars formed an integral part of Muslim communities in Malaysia. Their role as religious leaders often means that they are consulted in all areas of Muslim life, including the realms of politics, social affairs and economics. However, there was sufficient appreciation of their role in Muslim society in various scholastic works. It is also only in recent years that interest has been shown in the study of Javanese ulama in Malaysia. This article argues that for most of Malaysia's history, Javanese ulama have been largely apolitical and it was only in the 20th century that they attempted to carve a larger religious space for themselves in an attempt to assert their authority and influence. It briefly highlights the historical relationship between Javanese ulama and various government authorities in Malaysia focuses on their religious and political influence in relation to the role they played and the contribution they made, and shows how the Javanese ulama have tried to involve in the religious and political role in Johor, Malaysia. In order to contribute to the existing studies, this article aims to explore the impact of migration and religious contribution of Javanese Ulama in Johor, Malaysia.

Sebelum kedatangan British, masyarakat Melayu di Johor mempunyai corak pendidikan tersendiri berdasarkan asas pendidikan Islam dan al-Quran. Institusi pendidikan tradisional ini diteruskan tanpa merubah struktur asasnya walaupun setelah kehadiran British ke negeri Johor. Justeru, makalah ini akan membincangkan mengenai perkembangan pendidikan Melayu dan agama di Johor Bahru dari 1857-1957. Makalah ini akan dimulakan dengan huraian mengenai latar belakang pendidikan Melayu dan agama di Johor. Di samping itu, makalah ini akan turut memfokuskan tentang perubahan yang telah dilakukan oleh pihak kerajaan dalam tempoh tersebut. Selain itu, makalah ini akan melihat peranan dan strategi masyarakat Melayu pelbagai lapisan dalam memajukan pendidikan masyarakat Melayu di Johor Bahru pada ketika itu.

In order to reduce the economic and social disparity among the various regions of the country, the Malaysian government, since the early 1970s, has implemented its "growth-centre creation" policies. These have led to the evolvement of Penang as the growth centre for North Peninsular Malaysia, Kuantan for the East and Johore Baru for South Peninsular Malaysia. The role that Johore Port plays in the growth of South Peninsular Malaysia is examined

For those living in Singapore or Peninsular Malaysia, accustomed to having fresh chicken eggs every other morning, chances are that your breakfast comes from one of 17 million broody hens raised in the Malaysian state of Johor. If this comes as a surprise, you are probably not alone. Most recent commentaries concerning Johor's economic growth give the impression that agriculture is now a historical relic. The Iskandar Malaysia development project — accompanied by glittery real estate, oil and gas refining, complex manufacturing, mass tourism, and sophisticated healthcare offerings — now hogs the limelight. Indeed, even for field-leading scholarship on greater Malaysia's economic development, agriculture has been conspicuous by its relative absence, sidelined by an overwhelming focus on manufacturing and services. This essay represents an initial attempt to redress this imbalance. I ask two basic questions: what is left of agriculture in Johor? And why? My argument is similarly direct: although agriculture's share of Malaysian gross domestic product (GDP) and employment has fallen significantly, much remains, particularly in Johor. Amidst rapid urbanization and industrialization, agriculture's economic contribution in Johor has actually held steady and witnessed resurgence over the past decade. Johor's present-day agricultural strengths lie in oil palms, livestock farming, and certain forms of ornamental products. These agricultural activities are underlined both by high output and productivity relative to the rest of Malaysia. The clusters of trade networks and expertise underpinning these developments were already being developed in Johor prior to independence, and were given additional support from the 1960s onwards through policies linking industry with agriculture.
