INTRODUCTION Ladies and Gentlemen, 1. It is indeed a great pleasure for me to be with all of you in this significant event. As we all know, Malaysian Chinese Women Entrepreneurs Foundation is a non-profit and non-governmental organization established on 6 July 2011. The Foundation was officially launched at the Klang Hokkien Association by our Honourable Prime Minister YAB Dato’Sri Najib Razak, and it is now into its 5th year. 2. The Founder, Tan Sri SP Lim once told me that many women, especially single mothers, want to start-up small businesses that can help the family with extra income and at the same time allowing them to spend time and take care of their children. But many of them live in remote villages, with limited education and no access to business opportunities and network. They have no collateral to raise the start-up 1 capital. They yearn for city life, and they want to run their own businesses. Their maternal instinct gives them a strong sense of responsibility with the hope to create a more comfortable living environment for their children. 3. Tan Sri SP Lim has relentlessly persuaded the Ministry of Finance and the Prime Minister’s Department to provide a grant from which loans can be given to these category of women.

  • 'Jaga Hati Melayu, Tamatkan Perang Psikologi' Malaysiakini.Com October 22, 2010
    'Jaga hati Melayu, tamatkan perang psikologi' Malaysiakini.com October 22, 2010 Seorang perwakilan dalam perhimpunan agung Umno hari ini memberikan mesej dan amaran kepada kepada parti komponen BN yang lain, terutamanya MCA bagi menamatkan perang psikologi antara mereka. Menyentuh kenyataan Presiden MCA Datuk Seri Chua Soi Lek tentang kontrak sosial yang boleh dibincangkan secara tertutup, wakil Negeri Sembilan Jalaluddin Alias dengan nada keras mendesak pemimpin Cina itu supaya menjaga hati orang Melayu. "Ini perjuangan Melayu yang pertahankan hak Melayu? Takkan di rumah saya sendiri, saya tak boleh cakap dengan isteri? "Saya cakap atas dasar perpaduan yang diminta oleh presiden supaya kita jaga semua kaum untuk bangsa dan negara," kata Jalaluddin. "Kita minta MCA pun juga pun hati orang Melayu. Betul kalau MCA, MIC tak sokong kita (dalam pilihan raya) kita tak boleh menang. Tetapi kalau Umno tak sokong, lagi MCA dan MIC tak boleh menang," tambahnya. Semalam, Chua dilaporkan berkata jika kontrak sosial tidak seharusnya dibincangkan kerana soal itu mungkin menimbulkan sedikit kontroversi kerana generasi muda berpendapat, sebagai rakyat Malaysia mereka seharusnya diberi ruang. katanya. Dalam ucapannya sebelum itu, Datuk Seri Najib Razak antara lain berkata kedudukan dan hak-hak Melayu dilindungi sepenuhnya serta "terkunci kemas" dalam perlembagaan tanpa dapat digugat lagi dan kenyataan ini wajar diterima oleh semua kaum negara ini. Jalaluddin yang juga pemimpin Umno Jelebu menegur perhimpunan NGO dan parti bukan Melayu yang didakwanya dalam pelbagai medan menghentam orang Melayu. "Jangan sebut lagi, jangan sentuh lagi hak Melayu. Kita tak pernah tanya apa Cina dapat. Mreka lebih senang daripada kita. Kalau kita cabut semua bangun di Kuala Lumpur, yang tinggal hanya warung-warung tua peninggalan Melayu," katanya disambut sorakan dan tepukan para perwakilan.

  • Speech by DAP Secretary General Lim Guan Eng at the DAP
    Speech by DAP Secretary General Lim Guan Eng at the DAP National Special Congress on 12 November 2017 at the IDCC Shah Alam, Selangor A Democratic, Progressive and Prosperous Malaysia for the many Preamble We, the DAP national delegates, gather here today for our National Special Congress as requested by the Registrar of Societies (ROS) to hold a fresh election for the Central Executive Committee members, once again. We had earlier decided to accept the instructions by the ROS, under protest. Since the last National Conference on 4th December 2016, we lost two of DAP’s most important national leaders, the former Secretary-General and my university mate Sdr. Kerk Kim Hock and the former Perak Chairman and one of the earliest DAP members Sdr. Lau Dak Kee. Both of them were detained under the Internal Security Act during the Ops Lalang in 1 987. Let us pay tribute to Sdr Kerk and Lau for their contributions to the Party and to Malaysia, especially during difficult dark years. 1. Crisis and leadership Before I proceed into the details of this special meeting, let us together express DAP’s solidarity with the people of Penang for the recent unprecedented natural disaster of worst flood and storm in history that befell upon us on 4th and 5th November. No words can fully grasp the unexpected calamity. On behalf of DAP, let me express my sincerest gratitude to Penangites and Malaysians that have helped our people during the tumultuous time, and those who continue to assist us till this very moment. Your precious assistance, contributions and donations will forever be appreciated.

Earlier today two parties quit a parliamentary coalition, a move that opened the way for a new election to clear what a politician called "Moscow agents" from the chamber, a decision welcomed by President Petro Poroshenko. Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk's resignation could leave a hole at the heart of decision-making when Ukraine is struggling to fund a war with pro-Russian rebels in its east and dealing with the aftermath of a plane crash that killed 298 people. The usually mild-mannered Yatseniuk bellowed at politicians who had failed to pass a law to allow a liberalisation of control over Ukraine's pipeline system. He said Ukraine's politicians were at risk of losing the hearts and minds of the thousands who protested for months in the "Maidan" protests in favour of joining Europe and against a pro-Moscow president.
