OUR POLICIES
» Section Policies
The published articles are open submission, indexed and peer-reviewed
» Open Access Policy
This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge
» Plagiarism Check
The editor will run a plagiarism check using Turnitin for the submitted articles before sending to the reviewers. We do not process any plagiarised contents. If an article has over 20% of plagiarism based on the result of the check, we will send back the article to the author to be revised for the plagiarised contents
» Peer Review
Every submitted article will go thorugh a pre-review by a section editor to make sure the article meets the quality standard of the journal, either format or content. If the article fulfill the standard, it will be sent to the peer-review stage where at least two peer-reviewers (Double Blind) will be assigned to review it. The decision for publication, amendment, or rejection is based upon their reports/recommendation. After being reviewed, there will be four kinds of editor decision based on the reviewers’ recommendation and editors' discussion:
Accept Submission: The submission will be accepted without revisions.
Revisions Required: The submission will be accepted after minor changes have been made.
Resubmit for Review: The submission needs to be re-worked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. It will require a second round of review, however.
Decline Submission: The submission will not be published in the journal.
» Article Revision
The articles sent back to the authors for revision should be returned to the editor without delay. The revised article returned later than 20 days will be considered as new submissions. The revised article can be sent to editorial through the Online Submission Interface
