Abstract

Religion and media are converging and frequently becoming a subject matter for news content and popular entertainment programmes in television and film, publishing, music as well as the new media. Religion, arguably has become part and parcel of the media environment today. In Malaysian context, during the millennium era, many locally produced ‘Islamic programmes’ started to gain popularity among Malaysian audience especially within the entertainment genre such as television drama. With the establishment of Malaysian first Islamic free-to-air television, TV Al Hijrah in 2010, this paper aims to understand the nature of Islamic content available on the station. The preliminary findings of this paper suggest that there are varieties of television programmes created and aired on TV Al Hijrah cutting across different genres meant for disseminating Islam as a way of life. Programmes available are mainly about showcasing the values of Islamic teaching and beliefs with the ultimate goal to highlight Islam as a beautiful and peaceful religion.

Abstract

In the context of radio, the gist of development communication is how the radio is used to aid social development. Although there are studies on radio listenership, research on women's listening habits in Malaysia is inadequate, although women are dominant radio listeners globally. This study examines factors that motivate women's listening to the radio, mainly in Semporna, Sabah. The central question is how radio has become significant among women in Semporna? This research employs a quantitative research approach. A structured questionnaire was used to obtain information from 294 female respondents. A chi-square test, factor analysis, and Kruskal-Wallis test with Bonferroni correction were used to analyse the data. The findings of the chi-square test analysis revealed a significant link between radio listening and possessing a radio set at home (X2 = 33.871, df = 1, p 0.05). The Kruskal-Wallis test with Bonferroni correction was conducted to see whether the agreement score in listening to the radio for entertainment and peace of mind is different according to four factors: age, marital status, level of education and occupation. Thus, radio is no longer the primary medium to get information, except for undocumented people.
