First, the AUKU, 1971 and Service Circular No. 2 Year 1992 are the fundamental document for the relationship between the Academic JCC and management that shaped the organisational culture.

The findings leads to the loose partnership arrangement made between the Academic JCCs-management and vice versa. This result warrants to some amendments toward the current policy with regards to the role and function of the Academic JCCs because it is important for the two parties to work in partnership instead of being treated as separate entities in organisations with conflicting objectives. This research has established that the desire to move forward is being felt but still concerned with who is the authority (power). As long as this power game is the case, this research argues that the management will continue to make final decisions; thus will preserve its supremacy as the single authority in public universities in Malaysia. 2019 Thesis https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/36263/ https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/36263/1/24%20PAGES.pdf text en public https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/36263/2/FULLTEXT.pdf text en validuser dphil doctoral Universiti Malaysia Sabah Faculty of Humanities, Arts and Heritage
