Proofs
Authors will receive the typeset page proofs for final approval. Authors should
either approve or return the proofs with any corrections within 3-4 days of
receipt.

Language Accuracy

Proceeding emphasizes on the linguistic accuracy of every manuscript published.

Articles must be in English and they must be competently written and argued in clear
and concise grammatical English. Contributors are strongly advised to have the
manuscript checked by a colleague with ample experience in writing English
manuscripts or a competent English language editor.

Author(s) should provide a certificate confirming that their manuscripts have been
adequately edited. A proof from a recognised editing service should be submitted
together with the cover letter at the time of submitting a manuscript to Pertanika. All
editing costs must be borne by the author(s). This step, taken by authors before
submission, will greatly facilitate reviewing, and thus publication if the content is
acceptable.

Language Editing Service

The preferred provider of author support services to publishers, journals, and societies
globally- offer manuscript language editing services to researchers provided. For

form, it is assumed that authors have obtained permission to use any copyrighted or
previously published material. All authors must read and agree to the conditions
outlined in the form, and must sign the form or agree that the corresponding author
can sign on their behalf. Articles cannot be published until a signed form (original
pen-to-paper signature) has been received.

ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID)

Authors are strongly encouraged to obtain and include an ORCiD identifier and
to include this in their contact details after their email address. ORCID provides a
persistent digital identifier that distinguishes each author separately from every
other researcher and, through integration in key research workflows such as

and their professional activities ensuring that their work is recognized. See
https://orcid.org (there is no charge to sign up for these).
