An ontological model to preserve indigenous knowledge of Malay confinement dietary / Muhammad Hamiz Mohd Radzi

Science and technology are intimately linked to the studies and expansion in the general progression of the society. However, Indigenous Knowledge (IK) which holds the same weight-age as the development of the society with science seems to be forgotten and it leads to its extinction. IK is a tacit,...

description Science and technology are intimately linked to the studies and expansion in the general progression of the society. However, Indigenous Knowledge (IK) which holds the same weight-age as the development of the society with science seems to be forgotten and it leads to its extinction. IK is a tacit, scattered and unorganized knowledge that being used by the people in certain environments in making their living such as health, spiritual and agriculture. Hence, this research intends to gather, structure and model Malay indigenous health knowledge with scope focuses on the Malay confinement dietary. This qualitative interpretive research is using a sampling of the purposive method in order to gather the data through the interviews with Malay traditional midwives, gynaecologist and dietician. Then, the conceptual analysis is used to structure the unorganized data from the interviews. The ontological model is then developed and it is divided into five main classes which are the food, food pyramid, restriction, nutrient deficiency, and reason.
