  • 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.

  • Malaysians for Beng Hock
    Galas assault: Heng a liar, says TBH group Malaysiakini.com November 02, 2010 The 'Malaysians for Beng Hock' movement released a series of photographs today to prove that one of their members was manhandled by an MCA grassroots leader in Gua Musang, Kelantan, last Saturday. The movement's coordinator Ng Yap Hwa said the photographs proved that one of its members, Soh Cher Hai, was in fact violently pushed by an individual who has been identified as the Gua Musang MCA division secretary. NONEThe movement said the photographs were proof that Deputy Women, Family and Community Development Minister Heng Seai Kie had issued misleading statements on the incident. Ng said the photographs also depict Heng not only witnessing the incident but leaving the scene and ignoring Soh, who was on the ground just a few feet from her. The group also challenged Heng's claim that Soh "nearly fell" during melee, that his fall was broken by others surrounding him. "Our evidence shows that Heng has lied outrageously," Ng told a press conference at the Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall in the federal capital today. He urged MCA to sack the division secretary who had acted violently and to take displinary action against Heng for lying. Meanwhile, Soh, who was also present at the press conference, said he reserved his right to take legal action against his assailant. Last Saturday, Soh had attempted to approach Heng after an evening function at Gua Musang, where the deputy minister was campaigning for BN in the Galas by-election. Heng: I emphatise with Soh The pushing incident involving Soh has turned into a campaign fiasco for the MCA as Gua Musang's Chinese community have expressed disdain over the matter.

  • Tourism Management at Taman Negara (National Park), Pahang, Malaysia: Conflict and Synergy
    Tourism Management at Taman Negara (National Park), Pahang, Malaysia: Conflict and Synergy Yahaya Ibrahim* Mohd Sayuti Hassan** Abstract Many developing countries successfully use the attractions of nature to promote tourism in protected and unprotected areas. The attainment of sustainable tourism requires careful management of tourists to prevent deleterious effects on the environment, the host community and tourist satisfaction. The emphasis on conflict management and sustainable development is based on the diligent usage of available resources, especially in the context of planning, commitment and the involvement of management as well as the interested parties. The focus of the study is on‘ Taman Negara’ or National Park in Pahang, Malaysia which is a protected area of international importance as reflected in its listing as an Association of South East Asian (ASEAN) Heritage Site (DWNP, 1987). The main goal is to develop synergy and conflict management among the local government, communities and private sector strategy in order to realize the sustainable high quality nature based tourism that is promised by Taman Negara. To achieve this goal, the following objectives will be looked into. First, the characteristics of synergy and conflict among the departments related to Taman Negara; second, to examine the development by private sector and motivations of visitors to Taman Negara; third, to explore the issues that impact the local communities and tourists; and fourth, to ensure the preservation of nature and to promote the concept of sustainable use of resources at Taman Negara to ensure its sustainability both for the present and the future. This paper examines the management role of various departments over this national park.

  • Malaysiakini.Com March 17, 2011 COMMENT If MCA Is Not A
    MCA a subsidiary of Umno? Malaysiakini.com March 17, 2011 COMMENT If MCA is not a subsidiary of Umno, why should the MCA president bring his letter of resignation from his party to see the Umno president-cum-prime minister in the first instant? This is exactly what happened when MCA president Chua Soi Lek held a meeting with Premier Najib Razak on last Tuesday morning. Chua (left) told reporters that he took his resignation letter with him with the intention to submit his immediate resignation as MCA president if a certain outstanding issue faced by Chinese independent school graduates could not be resolved with Najib. The outstanding issue surrounds the entry requirement of these graduates to government teachers' training colleges. The problem arose when the Education Ministry advertised on its website on Monday that Chinese school graduates may apply for admission to the teaching colleges provided they possess four credit passes in the government SPM. This caused alarm to the Chinese community which was earlier assured by the MCA president that the United Examination Certificate (UEC) held by Chinese school graduates was also acceptable for admission, provided the students scored at least four credit passes which should include the subject of Bahasa Malaysia from SPM. This ministry's announcement which ran contrary to Chua's announcement, was therefore a slap on his face. To redeem his credibility, Chua took a high-power team to meet Premier Najib. Apart from deputy president Liow Tiong Lai (health minister), vice-president Ng Yen Yen (tourism minister) and Youth chief Wee Ka Siong (deputy education minister) also tagged along.

"I commit the Government to solving traffic woes here by implementing a monorail system.

  • Oui Promises Excellent Service If Elected
    05 JAN 2002 Oui-Service OUI PROMISES EXCELLENT SERVICE IF ELECTED KANGAR, Jan 5 (Bernama) -- Oui Ah Lan, the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Indera Kayangan by-election, today promised to provide excellent service to the people if she was elected as the assemblywoman. The 59-year-old Perlis Wanita MCA chief said Indera Kayangan was part of her life as she was not only staying in the area but had served as a teacher for 20 years there. Speaking to reporters after being named as the BN candidate for the seat by Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim today, Oui said she was confident that she could boost the voters' support for the BN. The Election Commission has fixed Jan 10 for nomination and polling will be held on Jan 19 in the event of a contest. The seat fell vacant following the death of its assemblyman from BN Datuk Khor Liang Tee on Dec 19. The former headmistress said she would continue the late Khor's excellent service in the constituency and would ensure that she gave the best to the constituents. The Arau MCA division chief said her selection as the candidate was not only an honour to the Wanita MCA but more importantly to deliver a thumping victory for the BN to retain the seat. Oui thanked Prime Minister and BN Chairman Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad and MCA President Datuk Seri Dr Ling Liong Sik for placing their trust and confidence in her to be the candidate. Meanwhile, Wanita MCA chief Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen expressed her gratitude to Dr Mahathir for picking a woman candidate to represent BN in the constituency.
