    BN will not give Anwar an easy run in by-election Malaysiakini.com Aug 4, 2008 Chan Kok Leong Barisan Nasional will not give PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim an easy run by not placing a candidate at the Permatang Pauh by election. MCPX najib hilton hotel pc 010808 01Deputy Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said that calls made by two Umno leaders against placing BN candidates were made in their personal capacity. Kelantan Umno liaison committee chairperson Annuar Musa and Deputy Health Minister Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad had suggested that the coalition does not contest in Permatang Pauh. Abdul Latiff had said: "If the leadership insists on contesting (in Permatang Pauh), I suggest we put an accounts supervisor or a local divisional member. "There is support for Barisan but not enough," he was quoted as saying in today's newspapers. If BN was to give a walkover, the election commission would also save money, Abdul Latiff reasoned. "It's not about only winning or losing but BN must present a choice to the Permatang Pauh voters," said Najib after closing the Umno Wanita "Meet the Leaderhip" meeting today. He said that the BN supreme council will discuss at its meeting on Wednesday on a suitable candidate for the seat. The seat fell vacant following Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail's decision to relinquish it to allow her husband to contest. Shahrizat endorsed wanita umno pak lah meet rafidah shahrizat event 040808 05Meanwhile, Najib said he endorsed the transfer of power plan by Wanita chief Rafidah Aziz to her deputy Sharizat Abdul Jalil by June 2009.

  • No Action Against Use of the Word 'Rakyat' in Voicing Objections, Says
    No action against use of the word ‘rakyat’ in voicing objections, says Malaysia’s PM Malaysian Insider June 27, 2013 THE Government will not act against any group using the word “rakyat” merely to voice their objection against the results of the 13th general election, said Malaysia's Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. He also said that the Government was not afraid of the expression “Malaysian Spring” used by the groups purportedly to demonstrate efforts used to topple the Government through street protests, reported thestaronline.com. “The Government will give space for people to express their views provided they do not breach the country’s laws. “At the same time, the Government will ensure that public peace and national sovereignty are respected,” he told Datuk Abdul Latiff Ahmad (BN-Mersing) in Parliament. Najib said any attempt to overthrow the Government through street demonstrations and riots would not bring any good to Malaysia. “In fact, countries that are in a state of unrest cannot achieve anything positive. “The economy and politics in these countries are ruined as a result of fighting and there is no assurance that they can be restored,” he added. Najib also said that national reconciliation could only be achieved if Pakatan Rakyat accepted the outcome of the election results. “A National Unity Consultation Council (MPKN) is being planned to find ways to solve the issue of race and religious polarisation that was evident during the elections,” he told Lim Kit Siang (DAP-Gelang Patah). Lim had asked the Government to state its efforts at national reconciliation after the elections.

  • The Social Reality of the Malaysian Blogosphere
    June 12, 2011 12:39 Research Publishing : IJAS Sample ijas-0403 International Journal of Arts & Sciences, CD-ROM. ISSN: 1944-6934 :: 4(3):239-252 (2011) Copyright c 2011 by InternationalJournal.org THE SOCIAL REALITY OF THE MALAYSIAN BLOGOSPHERE Abdul Latiff Ahmad Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia This paper explores the social reality of blogging in Malaysia. The presence of blogs has created a change in terms of the flow of communication and how information is obtained, shared and accessed. With a Malaysian customized framework of press freedom and strong emphasis on the multicultural values and religion, there are various factors to be considered before one decides what to write in a blog. Thus this study aims at discussing three key components of blogging as a new media technology and how its presence has opened up new avenues of interaction and created an impact to not only the individuals at hand but also the reading audience. The key issues explored are issues related to identity, interaction and empowerment. These key issues were later analyzed using a thematic matrix schema which highlights six key themes that consist of disclosure: public vs. private debates, voice and expression, virtual environment, personal growth and life changing experiences, relationship and support systems and the influential power. Twenty Malaysian bloggers between the ages of 21-35 were interviewed for this research. The participating respondents write in blogs of various genres that include politics, humor, daily lives and entertainment. Keywords: blogosphere, blogging, empowerment, Malaysia. INTRODUCTION The development of Computer Mediated Communication such as e mails, bulletin boards, blogs and etc.

Segala puji dan syukur saya panjatkan kepada Allah SWT kerana atas berkat dan rahmat-Nya, dapat saya mengumumkan barisan Kabinet yang telah mendapat perkenan Kebawah Duli Yang Maha Mulia Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Al-Musta'in Billah. 2. Barisan Kabinet yang dibentuk hari ini merupakan pasukan pengurusan yang akan bekerja bersama rakyat. Kabinet ini perlu bertindak pantas dan bersepadu dalam usaha membebaskan Malaysia daripada ancaman pandemik COVID-19, kegawatan ekonomi serta kekusutan politik. 3. Umum mengetahui saya menerima kerajaan ini dalam keadaan seadanya. Justeru, pembentukan Kabinet ini merupakan satu formulasi semula berdasarkan situasi semasa, demi mengekalkan kestabilan dan meletakkan kepentingan serta keselamatan Keluarga Malaysia lebih daripada segala-galanya. 4. Saya akui bahawa kita sedang berada dalam keadaan yang getir akibat pandemik COVID-19, kegawatan ekonomi dan diburukkan lagi dengan ketidakstabilan politik negara. 5. Berdasarkan ramalan Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO), kita akan hidup bersama COVID-19 sebagai endemik, yang bersifat kekal dan menjadi sebahagian daripada kehidupan manusia. 6. Dunia mencatatkan kemunculan Variant of Concern (VOC) yang lebih agresif dan rekod di seluruh dunia menunjukkan mereka yang telah divaksinasi masih boleh dijangkiti COVID- 19. 7. Oleh itu, kerajaan akan memperkasa Agenda Nasional Malaysia Sihat (ANMS) dalam mendidik Keluarga Malaysia untuk hidup bersama virus ini. Kita perlu terus mengawal segala risiko COVID-19 dan mengamalkan norma baharu dalam kehidupan seharian.

Before Athe implementation of GST, dining out used to be cheaper but nowadays, some restaurants would even charge GST on each menu item and when the bill comes, pay a further 10 per cent for service. Many now opt to cook at home, buying raw materials such as meat, vegetables and seafood at the market. While this certainly saves money, it is hard to deny how much the prices on groceries have increased over the years. Hence the question remains, with the rising cost of living, how much can we save?

    First UA: 93/20 Index: ASA 28/2644/2020 Malaysia Date: 3 July 2020 URGENT ACTION UNION MEMBERS DEMANDING PPE CHARGED On 2 June 2020, Malaysian police dispersed a peaceful picket against a hospital cleaning services company. The workers’ complaints included alleged unfair treatment of union members by the company and insufficient personal protective equipment for cleaners. Police arrested, detained and charged five activists for “unauthorised gathering”, violating their rights to freedom of association and assembly. We call on the Minister of Home Affairs to drop all charges against them. Pickets are an essential component of the right to association and no one should be prosecuted solely for a peaceful gathering. TAKE ACTION: WRITE AN APPEAL IN YOUR OWN WORDS OR USE THIS MODEL LETTER Dato’ Seri Hamzah Zainudin Minister of Home Affairs Kementerian Pertanian dan Industri Makanan, Aras 17, Wisma Tani, No.28, Persiaran Perdana, Presint 4, 62624 Putrajaya, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Dear Dato’ Seri Hamzah Zainudin, I am writing to oppose the arrest, overnight remand, and charges faced by five activists – M.

Some of the activists are hospital workers. The picket denounced the alleged mistreatment of cleaners in the hospital including: inadequate supply of protective equipment for COVID-19, intimidation of workers active in the union, the cancellation of a Collective Agreement accepted by the previous sub-contractor, and the lack of annual increase in wages and paid holidays or sick leave – by a company sub-contracted for hospital cleaning services.
