| dc.description.abstract | —The purpose of this paper is to provide insights and empirical evidence on internet usage among the Members of Parliament (MP) in Malaysia. In tandem with the globalization, information and communication technology (ICT) usage has become ubiquitous. As such, politicians and MPs should fully utilize the internet-based tools to reach out to their constituent members. The Parliament of Malaysia, in responding to this phenomenon has provided the infrastructure for more e involvement and e-engagement with their peers and the constituent that they represent. Regardless of race and gender, many MPs especially young politicians are into ICT usage and have taken the initiative on e-participation into their own hands and pace. Therefore, the objective of the study is to examine the relationship between individual factors (perceived usefulness; perceived ease-of-use and perceived self-efficacy) and the MPs e engagement. Through cross-sectional design, the sample size was 222 MPs from the House of Representative in Malaysia. Data collections were done through interviews, surveys and the evaluation of the MPs personal web site. | |
