1.0 INTRODUCTION
Write your introduction here. The text of your paper should be typed in normal 12-point Times New Roman. The text should be set to single line spacing and in one column. Paragraphs should be justified. The first paragraph after a section or subsection should not be indented; subsequent paragraphs should be indented by 10 mm. The use of sections to divide the text of the paper is optional and left as a decision for the author. Author should set and leave 24 pt. of space above and 12-pt. of space after each section heading. As for other headings (sub-sections and sub-sub sections) and paragraphs, the spacing should be set to 12 pt. above and after.
Second paragraph starts here. Figures and tables, as originals of good quality and well contrasted, are to be in their final form, ready for reproduction, pasted in the appropriate place in the text. . Resolution of the images should be at least 300 DPI (dots-per-inch) at the intended publication size. Each figure should consist of only a single component. If a figure with multiple images is desired, use a graphics/image editor to combine the images, plus all overlays, labels, or notes, into a single image or file before inserting into the paper. This will ensure that components of a figure do not wander when published in different formats. Captions should be typed in 11-point Times New Roman with uppercase and lowercase letters. They should be centred above the tables and beneath the figures. The width size of the lines for tables must not be thinner than ½ pt.
Table caption must briefly explain the contents of the table. Number tables consecutively and use table numbers when referencing to a Table (Table 1, Table 2, 3…). Round to two decimal digits of accuracy while reporting correlations, proportions, and inferential statistics such as t, F, and x2. Please use S1 units for all scientific and laboratory data. Examples of table and figure are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1.

2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Heading 2 (e.g. Data Source, Data Analysis, Observation, etc.)
The second heading should be bold, 12-point Times New Roman in upper and lower case as shown above.
2.1.1 Heading 3 (e.g. Study setting, Sample size determination, etc.)
The third heading should be bold, italic and 12-point Times New Roman as shown above. Please limit to third heading only.
2.2 Equations and Mathematics
Equations should be centred and numbered with the number on the right-hand side.
Ts (l,t) = Tg (l,t) (1)
Ts (l,t) = Tg (l,t) Tb (x ® - b, t) = 0 (2)
Use italics for variables (u) and bold (u) for vectors. The order for brackets should be {[()]}, except where brackets have special significance.
3.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Within the text of an article, references are to be cited by last name of author(s) and year of publication. For example:

4.0 CONCLUSIONS
The paper must not exceed 5,000 words inclusive of title, name of authors, authors’ affiliations and e-mails, footnotes and references. All submissions will be peer reviewed.
