Impact of Covid-19 on supply chain management

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented stresses on food supply chains, with bottlenecks in farm labor, processing, transport and logistics, as well as momentous shifts in demand. Most of these disruptions are a result of policies adopted to contain the spread of the virus. COVID-19 has led to disruptions in food processing industries, which have been affected by rules on social distancing, by labor shortages due to sickness, and by lockdown measures to contain the spread of the virus. Food supply chains have demonstrated a remarkable resilience in the face of these stresses. While the impacts of COVID-19 are still unfolding, experience so far shows the importance of an open and predictable international trade environment to ensure food can move to where it is needed.

dditionally, the second important festivals celebrate by Malay ethnic is Hari Raya Haji. They believe that it is an important day for Muslims to commemorate Ibrahim for following Allah’s command to sacrifice Ishmael (Ibrahim’s son). It is known as the Festival of Sacrifice, all Muslims observed the process. Allah stopped Ibrahim when he was about to sacrifice his son, and Allah told him that it was just a test to know whether Ibrahim can follow Allah’s command to sacrifice his son. Therefore, all Muslims will sacrifice animals with four-legged during Hari Raya Haji. They usually kill goats, cows or lamb in this sacrifice event. Then, the meat will be distributed to 3 parts which are for family, relatives or friends and last will be distributed to poor people. However, they believe that Ibrahim and his son Ishmael were guided by Allah to build ‘Kaaba’ the square tone building in a place name Mecca. Thus, that is the direction that all Muslims prayers pray towards all over the world. (Nurul Azliah Aripin, 2015)

VALUE & BELIEF

A value is the belief that people think it is preferable. It is something that people taught us and we believe it and follow the tradition set by ancestor. So, these cultures have been taught from one generation to next the generation until today. Besides that, different culture has their own values and basic belief.

In Malaysia, Chinese ethnic and Malay ethnic learn their value and belief of own culture. This is known as Enculturation and of course different culture has different belief. For Malay culture, they are known as Muslim prayers. All of the Muslim prayers pray to their god – Allah. For Muslim prayers, they strongly believe Allah is the universe creditor. Allah is also the meaning of God in the Arab language and they only believe Allah is the only God in Islam. Besides that, Muslim prayers used to pray to Allah 5 times a day is because they believe they can get some benefits by doing so. Muslim prayers can pray anywhere, but it will be better if there is a Mosque for them. For example, Muslim prayers will gather in Mosque every Friday and pray the Al-Quran. (BBC, 2014)
