INVOLVEMENT IN REMPIT AMONG TEENAGERS

Below is my first draft.

1.0 Introduction

1.1 Research Objective

1.1.1 to find out the factors that contribute for teenager’s involvement in Rempit

1.1.2 to discuss about the effects of teenagers involvement in Rempit to the community, teenagers themselves and the country

1.1.3 discussion on preventing these problems and to control it from affecting more teenagers

1.2 Research question

1.2.1 What are the reasons for teenagers involved with Rempit?

1.2.2 What will happen to teenagers, community and the country if the Rempit problems are not well treated or prevent?

1.2.3 How to prevent or overcome Rempit problems from infecting the whole community?

1.3 Definition of Rempit

1.3.1 Rempit was derived from the noise made by a 2-stroke motorcycle. The usage of the term “remp it” defines the Rempit term which related with motorcycle. Remp it in this context referring to remp the throttle of the motorcycle.

1.3.2 “Mat Rempit” is the name given for those involved with Rempit. “Mat” is basically a Malay slang term to call or to refer to a male person but usually used derogatorily.

1.4 Issues of the term

1.4.1 Recently, there is an issue to replace the term “Mat Rempit” to “Samseng Jalanan” which means thugs-on wheels proposed by the Police. They claimed that the usage of the terms “Mat Rempit” or “Rempit” is like given or putting them in glamourous image, something that they do not deserve to be labeled or called.

1.4.2 Due to the wide usage of the term, it also had been made to be a title for a movie, Remp-It, which tells the story about Rempit life. This also contributes for the proposal to change the term so that “Mat Rempit” will not feel proud about their activities anymore. The term “Samseng Jalanan” only can be looked in the negative side.
