Gandingan Muka Lama, Muka Baru Ketuai Umno Bahagian
30 APR 2001 Umno-Rangkuman GANDINGAN MUKA LAMA, MUKA BARU KETUAI UMNO BAHAGIAN KUALA LUMPUR, 30 April (Bernama) -- Persidangan perwakilan Umno bahagian yang berlangsung sepanjang bulan ini menyaksikan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad dan Timbalan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi masing-masing mengekalkan jawatan ketua bahagian Umno Kubang Pasu dan Kepala Batas. Di KEDAH, Dr Mahathir yang menerajui Umno Kubang Pasu sejak 1974, ialah antara 11 daripada 15 ketua bahagian yang mengekalkan jawatan itu, enam daripadanya tanpa bertanding. Kemenangan tanpa bertanding jawatan ketua bahagian turut menjadi milik Penasihat Agama Perdana Menteri Datuk Paduka Abdul Hamid Othman (Sik), Setiausaha Politik Tun Daim Zainuddin, Datuk Arzmi Abdul Hamid (Merbok) dan Menteri Kebudayaan, Kesenian dan Pelancongan Datuk Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir (Kulim/Bandar Baharu). Selain Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Syed Razak Syed Zain yang menang tanpa bertanding di Kuala Kedah, tiga lagi muka baru wujud setelah bekas timbalan ketua bahagian merebut jawatan ketua dengan menyingkirkan "boss" masing-masing. Mereka ialah anggota exco kerajaan negeri Datuk Zainol Mohamed Isa yang menewaskan bekas menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Raja Ariffin Raja Sulaiman di Baling; bekas anggota exco Abdul Rahman Ariffin menumpaskan Datuk Hanafi Ramli di Jerlun dan bekas anggota exco Datuk Ghazali Ibrahim menyingkirkan bekas timbalan menteri kewangan Datuk Dr Afiffuddin Omar di Padang Terap. Di bahagian Padang Terap, Jawatankuasa Pemilihan Umno Kedah memutuskan untuk menggantung aktiviti jawatankuasa baru yang dipilih, berikutan terdapat aduan mengenai kertas undi melebihi jumlah perwakilan yang diumumkan oleh pengerusi tetap semasa mesyuarat. Kes itu telah dirujuk kepada Majlis Tertinggi Umno. Pemilihan di Kedah juga menyaksikan Ketua Pemuda Umno Kulim/Bandar Baharu Azimi Daim yang juga anggota Majlis Tertinggi Umno, gagal mengisi jawatan timbalan ketua bahagian itu apabila tewas kepada penyandangnya, Abdul Halim Abdul Rahman.

A Study on Interruptions by the Chairperson in the Dewan Rakyat
ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE PARLIAMENT OF MALAYSIA: A STUDY ON INTERRUPTIONS BY THE CHAIRPERSON IN THE DEWAN RAKYAT Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität zu Bonn vorgelegt von Nor Azura binti A Rahman aus Johor, Malaysia Bonn 2021 Gedruckt mit der Genehmigung der Philosophischen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn Zusammensetzung der Prüfungskommission: Prof. Dr. Stephan Conermann (Vorsitzende/Vorsitzender) Prof. Dr. Christoph Antweiler (Betreuerin/Betreuer und Gutachterin/Gutachter) Prof. Dr. Claudia Derichs (Gutachterin/Gutachter) Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 26 November 2020 i ABSTRACT The election of the chairman of the House of Representatives, a chamber of the Malaysian parliament, has always been determined by the ruling party. The centralization of executive power has also absorbed the function of the chairman, so that the chairman acts partisanly in parliamentary debates. Also, the chairman has developed into an institution that carries out agenda-setting within the framework of the parliament. This raises the conceptual question of whether legislation in Malaysia is still performed independently by the parliament. The observed patterns require an attempt to re-conceptualize the roles as well as the assigned meaning of various expressions of parliamentary routine, including those that are unwritten and informal, for instance those which can also be termed “subjective forms of rule” at one's own discretion. In my doctoral thesis, I apply an interdisciplinary analytical framework that relates to accountability studies, as well as micro- sociological direct interaction, the interpretations of procedural interactions in conversation, as well as studies of political discretion in parliamentary operations. My main research question asks how the Speaker of Parliament fulfils his responsibilities by disrupting ongoing parliamentary debates.

Can one not be for- given for thinking that things are not looking too good and that the Malaysian multicultural nation is fraying badly at the sides? Cer- tainly, one could well surmise in poet’s phrase, that in these times in Malaysia, the best lack all convic- tions, while the worst are full of pas- sionate intensity. All too often we have seen this happening. Just to take a mun- dane example, I happened to watch the parliamentary report on television the other night and it was appallingly clear that the deputy ministers and parliamen- tary secretaries who were re- sponding to queries and ques- tions totally lacked conviction.

Umat Islam Menyambut Hari Raya Dengan Penuh Kesyukuran
06 DEC 2002 Raya-Rangkuman UMAT ISLAM MENYAMBUT HARI RAYA DENGAN PENUH KESYUKURAN KUALA LUMPUR, 6 Dis (Bernama) -- Umat Islam di seluruh negara hari ini menyambut hari lebaran dengan penuh kesyukuran kerana rahmat yang dikurniakan oleh Allah di bumi yang bertuah ini. Umat Islam Malaysia meraikan Aidlifitri dalam suasana aman damai dan makmur serta berbangga dengan pencapaian mereka baik di dalam ataupun di luar negara walaupun pandangan serong masyarakat dunia terhadap Islam amnya. Mereka juga sedar rakan-rakan mereka di beberapa negara seperti Palestin tidak dapat menyambutnya dengan sempurna kerana penindasan pihak luar ataupun pergolakan politik. Sambutan bermula dengan amalan tradisi solat Aidilfitri di masjid-masjid dan majlis rumah terbuka yang mengeratkan lagi tali silatulrahim bukan sahaja di kalangan ummah tetapi juga dalam masyarakat majmuk di negara ini. Di Kuala Lumpur, Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Syed Putra Jamalullail dan Raja Permaisuri Agong Tuanku Fauziah Tengku Abdul Rashid dengan diiringi Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad menunaikan solat Aidilfitri di Masjid Negara bersama rakyat jelata. Turut menunaikan solat Aidilfitri ialah Timbalan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi dan isteri Datin Seri Hendon Mahmood, isteri Perdana Menteri Datin Seri Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali dan beberapa orang Menteri dan duta asing. Selepas menunaikan solat Aidilfitri, rakyat jelata berpusu-pusu untuk bersalaman dengan Yang di-Pertuan Agong yang berpakaian baju Melayu berwarna hijau muda dan Dr Mahathir yang berpakaian baju Melayu berwarna biru gelap. Sementara itu, wargakota, terutamanya daripada kalangan bukan Islam selain melawat rumah terbuka, juga mengambil peluang cuti Hari Raya untuk bersiar-siar. Di SERI MENANTI, Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan Tuanku Ja'afar dan Tuanku Ampuan Tuanku Najihah menunaikan solat Aidilfitri bersama rakyat di Masjid Diraja Tuanku Munawir, Seri Menanti, Kuala Pilah.

KEEPING the FAITH: PM Puts Reputation on the Line Brendan Pereira February 15, 2006 New Straits Times
KEEPING THE FAITH: PM puts reputation on the line Brendan Pereira February 15, 2006 New Straits Times Feb 14: YESTERDAY was not about the ebullient Datuk Effendi Norwawi being hoisted onto the political mainstage once again, two years after his health scare. It was not about International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Rafidah Aziz proving that there is life after the Approved Permits fiasco. It was not about Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor showing that there is no such thing as political oblivion in Malaysian politics. It was about Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi putting his reputation on the line and banking on 33 ministers and 39 deputy ministers to deliver big over the next two years. The stakes are high for the ruling coalition, and for the man who currently occupies the top job in the country. Fail, and the consequences will be grave. He knows that the reservoir of goodwill which followed the Barisan Nasional’s grand election victory in 2004 is emptying. He knows that after the pundits and armchair critics have exhausted all their arguments in coffee houses, the only thing that would really matter in Malaysia is this — whether the economy is humming. He is aware that the next 24 months will define how well he is judged and how well the BN fares in the next election. There will be little wiggle room for Abdullah and his band of ministers. Day One of their task will be on March 31 — the day the Ninth Malaysia Plan is tabled. Privately, Abdullah likes to use this analogy when describing the challenge that lies ahead for him and his team.

30 APR 2001 Umno-Roundup A BLEND OF OLD AND NEW FACES AMONG UMNO DIVISION CHIEFS KUALA LUMPUR, April 30 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi were among the Umno division chiefs who were returned unopposed in the divisional elections held throughout this month. In KEDAH, Dr Mahathir, who has been leading the Kubang Pasu division since 1974, was among 11 of the 15 division heads who retained their posts, six of them without contest. Others who won the post uncontested include the Prime Minister's Religious Adviser Datuk Paduka Abdul Hamid Othman (Sik), Tun Daim Zainuddin's political secretary Datuk Arzmi Abd Hamid (Merbok) and Culture, Arts and Tourism Minister Datuk Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir (Kulim/Bandar Baharu). Apart from Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Syed Razak Syed Zain who was returned unopposed in Kuala Kedah, there were three other new faces, all former deputy chiefs who managed to beat their "bosses". They are state executive councillor Datuk Zainol Md Isa who beat former Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Raja Ariffin Raja Sulaiman in Baling, former executive councillor Abdul Rahman Ariffin who beat Datuk Hanafi Ramli in Jerlun, and another former executive councillor Datuk Ghazali Ibrahim who beat former Deputy Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr Afiffuddin Omar in Padang Terap. However, the election results in Padang Terap have yet to be confirmed after a complaint was lodged with the Kedah Umno Elections Committee that there were more ballot papers than the number of delegates present during voting.
