2. a)Human and social dimension of development. 

Human development can be viewed as the process of achieving an optimum level of health, and well-being. it includes physical, biological, mental, emotional, social, educational, economic, and other components as well.

social development is a process which results in the transformation of social structures in a manner which improves the capacity of the society to fulfill its aspirations.

for example, the policy of using english in the subjects of mathematic and science in Malaysia which has started few years ago has shown us that there is development in education in which the students are now more exposed to the english language and not only to malay language.

b) economic development

it refers to a sustainable increase in quality of life. it implies increase per capital income, better education and health as well as environmental protection. the economic development process supposes that legal and institutional adjustment are made to give incentives for innovation and for investment so as to develop an efficient production and distribution system for goods and services. in this aspect, the economists help policymakers formulate their development programs in ways consistent with the economic goals of the people and with their social and political system.

c)political development

this term refers to the expansion and centralization of governmental power, the differentiation and specialisation of functions, the identification of the populace with the political system, and their increased involvement in government.also, the larger numbers of people have been led into greater political awareness and have had more opportunity to participate. yet, there are those who maintain that this increase participation is more apparent than real.for example, there rates numbers of people who voting in general election in Malaysia has been increase and it was at about 80% number of participation in general election in the year 2008.another example is after the year of independence, goverment did not emphasize on administration aspects, but more to the social and economic development. that is why the administrative in Malaysia at that time was unstable and the citizens also had a hard time to reach out the goverment. but now, not anymore as there is a existence of E-Government which had make most of all the administrative system become easier and the citizens also can easily reach out for the goverment.

d)public administration development

public administration plays role as a mediator for private groups and individual to deliver services to the society. it is also an organization and it is management of people and materials to achieve government objective.it is also to provide efficient, pro-active and capable of meeting and the demands of the time as well as adjusting and itself for changes and reforms of the future.

to boost up the administrative skills within the administrator, the government establish the INTAN (Institusi Pentadbiran Negara) and MAMPU(Malaysian Administrative Modernization Unit). MAMPU is for the modernize goverment administration system, meanwhile the INTAN is providing training for the government services.

3-What is political administration dichotomy?

A politics-administration dichotomy is an administration that can be apolitical. No administration has ever been formed that has ever come close to being apolitical. Politics is what a government does and administration is how it does it. "What do I do?" and "How do I do it?" are related questions no matter what field your in. Politics-administration dichotomy not only cannot be sustained, it cannot be initiated.
