Article Processing Charges (APC)

Article Processing Charges (APC)are charged to authors of scholarly articles during the publication process. APCs are used by open-access journals in lieu of subscription fees that libraries and readers traditionally have paid to gain access to research articles. Authors pay a one-time Article Processing Charge (APC) of RM300 (USD 100) to cover the costs of peer review administration and management and professional production of articles.
