dc.description.abstract | The effects and consequences of global warming to the earth call for drastic actions to be taken by the international communities. One of the solutions proposed by the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) is the introduction of green technologies. This research attempts to establish the state of readiness of electronic manufacturing industry suppliers in adopting green technologies. A survey by using structured questionnaire was conducted on a group of respondents in Melaka. The sample was derived from the list of electronics manufacturing industry suppliers in Yellow Pages Directory. A total of 309 questionnaires were distributed and 202 respondents completed and returned; which resulted in 65.37% response rate. Standard multiple regression was used to investigate the relationship between internal factors and a level of readiness among of electronics manufacturing industry suppliers in implementing green technologies in Melaka. As a result, this study suggested that the electronic manufacturing industry suppliers in Melaka are ready to adopt the change towards green technology implementation. Only after all the stakeholders in manufacturing sectors are ready to implement green technology, will the adoption and institulisation of green technology in the electronic manufacturing industry be a reality. | en_US |
