economic obstacles
There are barriers for economic development for a country to develop a society.Firstly, social obstacle. one of the major problem for social obstacle is poverty.for example, Africa.in term of poverty, Africa has a high of poverty level. That country lack of access of basic needs such as clothes, shelter, food, education, proper health and clean water.when there is not enough infrastructures, it will give impact to society basic needs.when there is lower education among the people in Africa, it will increase illeteracy and then it will lead to underdevelop.
social obstacles
lack of expertise. when the country lack of people that are expertise in terms of development, the country cannot develop their society.for example, Timor Leste. this country has lack of people that are not expertise to develop the country itself.lack of expertise is caused by lack of education among the people in Timor Leste and then it will lead to lack of expertise.the children cannot continue their studies because their country cannot provide a good facilities for their good educations. because of this, the country has lack of expertise to develop the society.

"CHANGE: A THREAT TO SOCIAL STABILITY AND EQUILIBRIUM"
An equilibrium state is crucial in any society, thus make it closely related to the equilibrium theory.
Poor administration is a threat for social stability and equilibrium. When the country has poor administration and poor management, the country cannot adopt the changes that happen in the country. The country is not managing the administration very well. They have no proper planning, organizing, leading and controlling of the administration.
Without integration between races, the country is not able to stable and equilibrium the changes that happen in the country. Solidarity is important for social stability in the country. Every citizen in the country must cooperate and unite to ensure that they can stable the social. They must cooperate to ensure that the country is preserve from any internal and external threats.
Besides that, a threat for social stability is the gap between rural and urban areas development. There are poverty problems in rural area rather than urban areas. It will cause a gap between rural and urban area.
There is a factor either originated from within the society or from outside, that could impede the equilibrium state of the society, all efforts should focus towards getting it back.

MALAYSIAN SOCIETY : BENGALI
BY: GROUP4yeah..!!! we still thinking, why does its have to be a research of bengali..! ayoyo.... well it still a part of our responsibilities of part of the society to know about them and might be those bengali peoples are positively contribute to our country without we noticing it.! besides malay, chinese, india, bengali is also one of the community exist in malaysia. basically the polpulations of bengali in malaysia have reach over 25,000 peoples.
The Bengali began migrating to Malaysia during the early 20th century. They were mainly from Calcutta, Dacca, Chittagong, and Midnapore areas of Bengal in India. Being well educated, the Bengali secured supervisory or medical assistant positions in the Malaysian plantations.
Today's third generations of Bengali are mostly professionals in a variety of fields. The Bengali is a small community, yet they have maintained their Bengali language and rich cultural practices. Marriages are still arranged by parents, with consent from the potential couple. Marriages are often arranged with Bengali from other countries. A growing number of interracial marriages among other races and other languages are influencing this close-knit community.
Their community is multi-lingual. As part of a larger North Indian Hindu community living in Malaysia, the Bengali often join Punjabi Hindus, Sindhi Hindus, and Gujarati Hindus in many celebrations and temple functions. They are well-versed in Hindi and often use Hindi or English on such occasions. The younger generation is comfortable using English and Malay, although Bengali is still being used at home.
as for the social changes, apparently the community of bengali is still a Gemeinshaft which is a small community in the malaysian society. however the bengali have evolved on several part that might be in conjunction with the current situations and environment that bring an outrageous effects towards them. at the very first time, the bengali immigrant is only having and trust their own religion and not contributed or join in together with others community, but nowadays time have change, they are still bengali, but part of them might be muslim, christian and migth be on other beliefs.
in term of divisions of labour, bengali is now not just a minimal community with only certain specialties, but it have been varied and most of them having a different knowledge and skills that can be applied. as the role being hold, bengali apparently still interrelated with their own society, only just a few of them that are only showing what they can do best. as for the organizing principles, the old days have thought this community to be more specific in their objective and starting to having a formal position of leadership rather than kinship.
while for the social intergration, it is the most important thing for bengali's. the social intergrations among them are seems to be high which is based on their similarity. eventhough the time have changed, they still have their own special values but the are still sharing it with others rather than keep it among their community. in malaysia, the bengali's still celebrating their festive seasons as usual plus it also being enjoy by others, that things also came up when other society having their time, the bengali's will support it. this is the way malaysian are..! ;)
as for the conclusion, we can see the changed and evolutions happens among this community but its still not reach the level of Geisselshaft that are the big society with a high values.
SOCIAL CONTRACT
by: group4
When we talk about social contract.. what does it can be defined as.. as our group opinion, we all agree that social contract is an agreement and more so to subject it to a review or change since the origin purpose of it is the formation of better MALAYSIA. some said that social contract can be "the inter-ethnic" bargain by the several leaders in order to having and enjoy their specialization as being the leader of the society.
As for the simple conclusion, social contract can be considered as an agreement made within the society in order of the social change of the country in one purposed-- developing the country.In its typical context related to race relations, the social contract has been heavily criticised by many parties, however the government seems that this agreement could positively change malaysian society into a better stages.However, Social Contract Theory is rightly associated with modern moral and political theory and is given its first full exposition and defense.
as in malaysia, it is always arise upon the issues within the races. since malaysia is one big society and inclusively with many types of races and religion, there might be many opposition upon difference opinion being given. for example is upon equality, the minority started to talked about the majority specialization that is not being enjoyed by them while for them they are also malaysian, this such thing will brought to any kind of social contract between them on any matters in order to ensure all malaysian are satisfied with who and what they are.
for an example, in term of education, the government once have introduce the system of "meritocracy". Meritocracy is a system of a government or other organization which is appointment are made and responsibilities are given based on demonstrated talent and ability, rather than by wealth, family connection, privilege, popularity or other historical determinants of social position and political power. In a meritocracy, society rewards that those who show talent and competence as demonstrated by past actions or by competition.
However, this new system was widely criticised by the non-Bumiputras as benefiting the Bumiputras by streaming them into a matriculation programme that featured relatively easy coursework while the non-Bumiputras were forced to sit for the STPM. we have heard some of the society have said that although in theory non-Bumiputras may enter the matriculation stream, and Bumiputras may sit for the STPM, this rarely occurs in reality. this kind of problem that will brought to the demand of part of the nations and might been brought chaos.
as for the last word, our group still think that the social contract is more into the agreement being made by the ruler for the society to ensure they will not be in such chaos or having a feeling that they are not being so important for the nation.

"I'm a single mom. My kids are 8, 7, and 4. I have 2 girls and a boy. Their dad is in jail. I get no child support. I work full time second shift.... i'm tired but still there is not enough for me to make a living"
"My son is currently 13 months old and we are starting the journey of single mother and child while my ex-husband enjoying his life with his new wife. what should i do..??"
"i started as a single mom at 18.It was kinda difficult and kindda freaky, I was really young and I felt so damned prepared...But he left. He felt in love with the neighbor with whom he has a kid 1 year 1 mont younger than my son. But i stood up and kept on walking, and really happy because I had this sunshine in my life... I was happy..."
This is a several stories that we heard among the society called 'a single mother'. as we can see, there is many kind of problems faced by them in order to continue their lived with their children. part of them being left by their husband and there also a single mother who lost their husband in tragic ways such as DIE..!!
do we really concern about what happen to them..??? i dont think so..! since we never experienced it ourself..! why dont you think it in another perspective, be a human, and start to think and feels the single mother are all about right now..!
as for the the society which is also the part of the government, we are already known about the assistance scheme for single mother that implement by the government through the MINISTRY OF WOMEN, FAMILY AND SOCIETY DEVELOPMENT. the society among 'single mother' should thanks the government for this kind of policy implementation tha helps them secure their future. this policy started being implement from 2001 due to the new establishment of the ministry. several stages of this policy being implement step by step due to the current need sof the society. thi process are continuosly dont since this community of our nations is independent and not been able to judge for their numbers.
as for the several changes and implementation by the government is:
the component of social change in term of identity of change in this kind of policy can be specific. from the negative pictures by the society, single mother now can be more tough and independent due to the changes they have with the helps of government. the society now started to accept the 'single mother' as part of the nation that can contribute to the developing in many fields.
while for the level of change. of course single mother is a group of people which is part of the society that directly affect to the social change of the nations. for example, a single mother which also an entrepreneur can positively affects the economic growth of the country is the things they did are in positive situation also like others.
in term or duration of change, the policy being implement to help single mother is in the long-term of duration. all kind of related implementation are being undertake by stages which mean step by step and the effects are been able to be seen in the long-term due to the conditions and current situation and also the participation by the society itself.
magnitude of change for this policy is considered as high because the 'single mother' recently is another part of the society in the critical thinking of our malaysian that negatively give their expectation upon this people. with several implementation done by the ministry it could change the perception then change the conditions of our nation that next will help to develop our country.
in the last component of social change is the rate of change. as for this kind of policy it is considered continuosly since 'single mother' is the society or group that is unexpected to be occur. this issues will arise depends on our nation society situation especially in the social change and relations. so with a continuously change made by the government it still can secured this part of group or community that really needs a backup for them in term to take part in the society events.
as for the last word, single mother is also the part of society that can contribute to the nations in many terms. so, with the policy being implement by the government to help them, there will be no more worries to them. the single mother now can smile and then positively join our nation society to produced their efforts or anything they can to ensure the developing and positive social change towards the nation.....
