There are three primary objectives of this study; (i) to assess the extent of the weakness of AKSEM's human resources in carrying out the tasks and roles of combating rice smuggling in Rantau Panjang; (ii) to identify issues, problems and challenges faced by AKSEM Rantau Panjang in curbing smuggling; and (iii) to suggest solutions to the issues, problems and challenges that arise. This is a qualitative study which uses interview technique as a data collection method. Respondents for this study consist of seven members of AKSEM Rantau Panjang. In addition, nine civilians, who are smugglers, sellers, buyers. and residents, are selected as respondents to get further information related to the study. The findings show that AKSEM Rantau Panjang faces human resources problem, staff integrity, logistics and financial challenges. Moreover, the rice price, the smugglers tactics, the lack of cooperation from the locals, and the physical nature of the border also give challenges to AKSEM Rantau Panjang. This study provides recommendations that are appropriate and relevant for the use of AKSEM Rantau Panjang in particular, and the other agency in general, to always move forward in strengthening land border control in the Malaysia-Thailand border 2019 Thesis https://etd.uum.edu.my/9086/ https://etd.uum.edu.my/9086/1/s823760_01.pdf text eng public https://etd.uum.edu.my/9086/2/s823760_02.pdf text eng public https://etd.uum.edu.my/9086/3/s823760_references.doc text eng public other masters Universiti Utara Malaysia
