TO REDUCE THE PERCENTAGE OF INACTIVE MEMBERS TO ONLY 5% 10. TO MAINTAIN AS ONE OF THE PREMIER CLUBS IN DISTRICT 3300 4 E D I T O R I A L The Rotary Club of Pudu is today in existence for 41 years. Whilst we look back with profound memories and pride of our achievements in our field of service to humanity over these 41 years, we can't help but feel a tinge of sadness of the records that were lost. In order to ensure that future records are not lost, the Club initiated a number of procedures. They are the binding of the Berita Pudu (Club Bulletin) after each year, a generous section in the Club’s Installation Souvenir Magazine for the President to make a detailed report of each year’s activities (with photographs), the storage of the archives in a fixed venue and the production of our Club Handbook. All these are to ensure that our records are kept. These records of past activities and achievements are not only useful as a historical record but also to keep us reminded of our rich traditions and the dedicated services of our predecessors. The idea of producing our Club Handbook was started as early as 1973 through the efforts of our Rotarians namely PP Soong Siew Hoong (now Tan Sri, Dato’), PP V G Chandran and Rotarian Victor Jesudoss. The first edition was thus printed in 1973. In 1983, whilst I was President Elect, I was entrusted to update the Club Handbook. Five years later ie in 1989 I was given the honour again to produce the fourth edition. In 1996, we printed our fifth edition. In 2002, we produced sixth edition. This year, 2007, we are producing the seventh edition. A Club Handbook to me is a very important document of the Club. It not only provides a historical record of our Club's activities, but also a handy source of Rotary Information in brief. In this edition, we have retained and updated most of the topics and has added a few others. The production of this seventh edition could not be possible without the keen and ready support of our President Ken Ong and members of the Board of Directors. A special thanks to Rotarian Patrick Lee for undertaking the printing of the handbook. I hope all of you will find the information both informative and useful. Editor 3 March, 2007 5 PRESIDENT’S FOREWORD My Dear Fellow Rotarians, This Club Hand Book is indeed a Jewel. It is most timely to have this 7th Edition published as many changes have taken place since the publication of the last edition 5 years ago. This Club Hand Book is indeed the envy of many as it contains vital historical and current information about our beloved Club, District 3300 and Rotary International. It is a vital and quick source of reference for all things Pudu and it contains the essential core of Rotary information. It is best used to complement Rotary’s Manual of Procedure. Undoubtedly, the production of this latest Club Hand Book took great efforts and time. Many hours have been put in to compile and up-date the materials for the benefit of all members. In this regard, I must thank PDG Dr. Paul CK Lee for taking the lead and for his ever readiness to share his vast Rotary knowledge with us. Our sincere appreciation also goes to all those who have contributed to the successful publication of this Club Hand Book. May all of us make the best use of this invaluable gift. “Involved We Are, Committed We Must Be” “Lead The Way” Yours in Rotary Service Ken Ong President Rotary Year 2006-2007 6 CHARTER CERTIFICATE 7 A WORD FROM OUR CHARTER PRESIDENT I have been asked to write a few words about the formation of our Club. The manner in which new Rotary Clubs are formed is fully set out in the President's "Manual of Procedures" which can be made available to any interested Rotarian. Briefly, an established Rotary Club at some time in its existence feels it is getting too big, or its members realise that the original boundaries allotted to their club covers too large an area, or the members feel they would like to share their Rotary experience with others and so they decide, with Rotary International's approval to give up part of their territory to a new club. This is what happened when the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur gave up its Petaling Jaya territory to form the Rotary Club of Petaling Jaya. You will remember that the satellite town of Petaling Jaya did not exist as such, some fifteen years ago. Likewise Pudu, which was formerly a part of the Rotary Club of Kuala Lumpur's territory, was allocated to us in 1966. In was my good fortune to be chosen, for the task of forming the Club, by the District Governor Special Representative, Past President Sivapragasam (Siva). The first step was to sit down and compile a classification list of the various firms with offices and workshops in the territory allocated to Pudu. The next step was to go and personally call on those who were filling the classifications and to try to persuade them to help me form a club. This would not have been possible without the splendid assistance given to me by Past Presidents Siva, Arunasalam, Dr Hui Weng Choon, Soong Siew Hoong, Fong Ying Leong, Alex Lee, President Tharmalingam, Rotarians Kong Seong Soo and Hassan Moosdeen, all of whom gave their enthusiastic support to the idea of having our own Club.

Received: 20 January 2020; Accepted: 23 February 2020; Published: 6 March 2020 Abstract: A combination of the WAVEWATCH III (WW3) model and a modified Holland vortex model is developed and studied in the present work. The Holland 2010 model is modified with two improvements: the first is a new scaling parameter, bs, that is formulated with information about the maximum wind speed (vms) and the typhoon’s forward movement velocity (vt); the second is the introduction of an asymmetric typhoon structure. In order to convert the wind speed, as reconstructed by the modified Holland model, from 1-min averaged wind inputs into 10-min averaged wind inputs to force the WW3 model, a gust factor (gf) is fitted in accordance with practical test cases. Validation against wave buoy data proves that the combination of the two models through the gust factor is robust for the estimation of typhoon waves.

  • Mca Leaders Sign Condolence Book for Deng
    21 FEB 1997 MCA-Deng MCA LEADERS SIGN CONDOLENCE BOOK FOR DENG KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 21 (Bernama) -- MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Ling Liong Sik and several other party leaders today signed the condolence book for China's paramount leader, Deng Xiaoping, who died on Wednesday, at the Chinese embassy in Jalan Ampang, here. Those present were the party's deputy president, Datuk Lim Ah Lek, secretary-general Datuk Ting Chew Peh, vice-president Datuk Chua Jui Meng, Youth chief Datuk Chan Kong Choy, Wanita leader Datuk Teng Gaik Kwan and Datuk Tan Chai Ho. Led by Dr Ling, they performed the traditional bow in front of Deng's portrait with words of eternal remembrance of comrade Deng written in Mandarin. Speaking to reporters later, Dr Ling, who is Transport Minister, Deng would be best remembered for the modernisation of China. He credited Deng with the political stability in China which had led to strong economic growth in the last decade. He hoped there would be a smooth transition of leadership as China could provide the inspiration and growth for the whole region and the world at large. The MCA is the third largest Chinese-based ruling political party after the Communist Party of China and the Nationalist Party of Taiwan. However, unlike them, the MCA was formed by western-educated capitalists who aimed to bring more political rights to the straits-born Chinese. Later, DAP secretary-general Lim Kit Siang led a 12-member delegation to pay their last respects. Dewan Negara President Tan Sri Mohamed Ya'acob also signed the condolence book which will be open from 9am to 5pm daily until Tuesday, except on Sunday.

  • Case Study Women in Politics: Reflections from Malaysia
    International IDEA, 2002, Women in Parliament, Stockholm (http://www.idea.int). This is an English translation of Wan Azizah, “Perempuan dalam Politik: Refleksi dari Malaysia,” in International IDEA, 2002, Perempuan di Parlemen: Bukan Sekedar Jumlah, Stockholm: International IDEA, pp. 191-202. (This translation may vary slightly from the original text. If there are discrepancies in the meaning, the original Bahasa-Indonesia version is the definitive text). Case Study Women in Politics: Reflections from Malaysia Wan Azizah Women constitute half of humanity, and it follows that any decision-making, whether at the personal, family, societal or public levels, should be mindful of and involve the participation of women in the making of those decisions. Women’s political, social and economic rights are an integral and inseparable part of their human rights. Democracy is an inclusive process, and therefore in a functioning democracy, the points of view of different interest groups must be taken into account in formulating any decision. The interest and opinions of men, women and minorities must be part of that decision-making process. Yet far from being included in the decision-making process, women find themselves under-represented in political institutions. Numerous challenges confront women entering politics. Among them are lack of party support, family support and the "masculine model" of political life. Many feel that Malaysian society is still male dominated, and men are threatened by the idea of women holding senior posts. In the political sphere this is compounded by the high premium placed on political power. This makes some men even less willing to share power with women.

  • MEGAT JUNID MADE a FULL MINISTER (Bernama 28/05/1997)
    28 MAY 1997 Anwar-Cabinet MEGAT JUNID MADE A FULL MINISTER KUALA LUMPUR, May 28 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Megat Junid Megat Ayob was promoted as a full minister today, after over 10 years as Deputy Home Minister, most of which was spent tackling the drug and illegal immigrant problems which threaten national security. He was appointed Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister in place of Datuk Abu Hassan Omar in a minor Cabinet reshuffle announced by Acting Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Anwar told a news conference at his office here that the post of Deputy Home Minister would be taken over by Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Tajol Rosli Ghazali. Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Azmi Khalid was promoted deputy minister to take over from Tajol Rosli. On the possibility of a bigger Cabinet reshuffle in future, Anwar said that was the prerogative of the Prime Minister. "It may be held from time to time depending on the need and the vacancies," said Anwar who described today's appointment as "filling a vacancy" agreed upon by the Prime Minister. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad is on two months' vacation overseas. The appointment is effective Saturday when the swearing-in will be held. The post of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister was vacated by Abu Hassan on May 2 after he was named as Selangor Menteri Besar-designate. Abu Hassan, however, has to win the Permatang state by-election tomorrow to qualify for appointment as Selangor Menteri Besar. Megat Junid, 54, was appointed Deputy Primary Industries Minister in July 1984 before moving to the Home Ministry in August 1986.
