Circular No 279/2011 Dated 25 Nov 2011 Dear Members of the Malaysian Bar Walk For Freedom 2011: Peaceful Assembly Bill Cannot And Must Not Become Law! Tuesday, 29 Nov 2011 at 11:30 am, From Royal Lake Club to Parliament Martin Luther King Jr once said that “the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” The Malaysian Bar and indeed Malaysia is now facing such a moment of challenge and controversy — an objectionable Bill, being rushed into law with unseemly haste without adequate public consultation, which effectively robs the rakyat of our constitutional right to freedom of assembly. This Peaceful Assembly Bill (“Bill”) is far more restrictive than the current law. It is not a piece of legislation which we, as lawyers, can watch enter our statute books without standing up against it. It is not a piece of legislation which we want future generations to inherit, without us walking, and spending every ounce of our energy to oppose. If this piece of legislation makes it to the statute books, future generations would inherit a nation that is far from modern and progressive. Members of the Bar are now called upon to march to object to this Bill. The walk will take place next Tuesday, 29 Nov 2011, from the entrance of the Royal Lake Club to Parliament House, to deliver the Bar’s Proposed Amendments to the Peaceful Assembly Bill to YB Datuk Liew Vui Keong, Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department. -

An informed public makes for better democracy and active citizen participation, with citizens able to make well-informed decisions about the governance of their nation. This paper observes the role of Malaysian mainstream newspapers in the facilitation of citizen participation to exercise their political rights and responsibilities through a critical discourse analysis on newspaper coverage of the New Economic Model (NEM), a landmark policy of the Najib Administration. -

Countries at the Crossroads 2012: Malaysia
COUNTRIES AT THE CROSSROADS Countries at the Crossroads 2012: Malaysia Introduction Malaysia has over 28 million people, of whom approximately 63 percent are ethnic Malay, 25 percent Chinese, 7 percent Indian, and 4 percent Ibans and Kadazan-Dusun.1 Much of this diversity was created through the British formation of an extractive colonial economy, with the “indigenous” Malay community ordered into small holdings and rice cultivation, while the “non-Malays” were recruited from China and India into tin mining and plantation agriculture. Further, in preparing the territory for independence in 1957, the British fashioned a polity that was formally democratic, but would soon be encrusted by authoritarian controls. Throughout the 1960s, greater urbanization brought many Malays to the cities, where they encountered the comparative prosperity of the non-Malays. They perceived the multiethnic coalition that ruled the country, anchored by the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), but including the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) and the Malayan Indian Congress (MIC), as doing little to enhance their living standards. At the same time, many non-Malays grew alienated by the discrimination they faced in accessing public sector resources. Thus, as voters in both communities swung to opposition parties in an election held in May 1969, the UMNO-led coalition, known as the Alliance, was gravely weakened. Shortly afterward, Malays and Chinese clashed in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, sparking ethnic rioting known as the May 13th incident. Two years of emergency rule followed during which parliament was closed. As the price for reopening parliament in 1971, UMNO imposed new curbs on civil liberties, thereby banning any questioning of the Malay “special rights” that are enshrined in constitution’s Article 153. -
[以地養校] Origin of the Term Came from the Following
[以地養校] Origin of the term came from the following anecdote : Datuk Seri Panglima Yong Teck Lee, President of Sabah Progressive Party, had during his tenure as the Chief Minister of Sabah for the period 1996-1998 created an unprecedented history by bringing the application of Sabah Chinese High School Tawau (the application was for a parcel of 5 acre State Government land in a commercial area) to the state cabinet and simultaneously moved a motion to approve the said application. Subsequently, the 5 acre commercial land was used by the school to enter into a joint venture development agreement, by way of open tender, with a well-known property developer to build 71 units of commercial shop-lots. Sabah Chinese High School Tawau as the land owner was also eligible for the share of the development by getting 16 commercial shop-lots in return, then sublet to local tenants to earn rental of about RM (Ringgit Malaysia) 400,000 (about USD135,000) each year to help subsidize a great portion of the huge overhead expenses of the school, thus the term “以地養校” was initialized since then, meaning that the school was “raised” by the land in a literal sense. Malaysia is a multiracial country, the ethnic population of Malay constitutes a vast majority of the country’s population, whereas Chinese constitutes only about 28 percent of total population, government- funded schools are Malay orientated and Malay language is the main medium of instruction, naturally, majority of the students are also Malay. Seeing the difficulty of learning Chinese language in Government funded schools, and in order for their descendants to be able to learn Chinese while at the same time maintain and promote Chinese traditions and cultures in Malaysia, the Chinese immigrants ancestors initiated the call to all local Chinese to contribute generously in the form of money or expertise into the building of Chinese primary schools, subsequently followed by the establishment of Chinese independent secondary schools in Malaysia, The main medium of instruction in this school is Chinese language. -

PRESS RELEASE 27 August, 2021 CM congratulates new Federal Cabinet KOTA KINABALU: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Panglima Haji Hajiji Haji Noor has described the new Federal Cabinet under prime minister Dato’ Sri Ismail Sabri Yaakob as an action-oriented team capable of effectively dealing with the economic challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. “The people have high expectations on them and hopefully with this new team, we can now focus on efforts to address the COVD-19 pandemic and economic recovery,” he said today. “Congratulations and I wish them (Federal Cabinet) well in discharging their duties,” he said. In his highly anticipated announcement earlier today, Ismail Sabri named two full ministers and four deputy ministers from Sabah. The two full ministers are Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Maximus Ongkili and Datuk Ronald Kiandee, both retaining the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Sabah and Sarawak Affairs) and Minister of Agriculture and Food Industries posts, respectively. The reappointment of Dr Maximus and Ronald Kiandee to their previous positions would allow them to continue what they have set out and planned to do. Hajiji said the State government would be working very closely with Maximus in pursuing all matters pertaining to State rights as enshrined in pre-independence documents such as the IGC report and MA63. Hajiji also said that Kiandee’s portfolio is crucial to help the State government achieve its Hala Tuju Sabah Maju Jaya development plan of which agriculture is a key component. “SABAH MAJU JAYA” Pejabat Media dan Komunikasi, Jabatan Ketua Menteri, Aras 31, Blok A, Pusat Pentadbiran Negeri Sabah, Jalan UMS, Teluk Likas, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. -
