With this opening question, the author proceeds to give an account of how the modernization processes for postcolonial societies in Asia, such as those of India, Malaysia, and Singapore, are fraught with collaborations and conflicts between different socio-political, historical, economic, and cultural agents. 606 $aMass media$xSocial aspects$zSingapore 606 $aCapitalism$zSingapore 607 $aSingapore$xEconomic conditions 607 $aSingapore$xSocial conditions 607 $aSingapore$xCivilization 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMass media$xSocial aspects 615 0$aCapitalism 676 $a302.23095957 700 $aWee$b C.

Its aim is to run statistical measurements, to present a report on enhanced measures in mechanical reliability and to evaluate the reliability of repairable or unrepairable systems. To achieve this, the author presents a theoretical and 410 0$aISTE 606 $aReliability (Engineering) 615 0$aReliability (Engineering) 676 $a620.0045 700 $aGrous$b Ammar$0889240 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141602003321 996 $aApplied reliability$92242685 997 $aUNINA
