  • Arms Procurement Decision Making Volume II: Chile, Greece, Malaysia
    4. Malaysia Dagmar Hellmann-Rajanayagam* I. Introduction Malaysia has become one of the major political players in the South-East Asian region with increasing economic weight. Even after the economic crisis of 1997–98, despite defence budgets having been slashed, the country is still deter- mined to continue to modernize and upgrade its armed forces. Malaysia grappled with the communist insurgency between 1948 and 1962. It is a democracy with a strong government, marked by ethnic imbalances and affirmative policies, strict controls on public debate and a nascent civil society. Arms procurement is dominated by the military. Public apathy and indifference towards defence matters have been a noticeable feature of the society. Public opinion has disregarded the fact that arms procurement decision making is an element of public policy making as a whole, not only restricted to decisions relating to military security. An examination of the country’s defence policy- making processes is overdue. This chapter inquires into the role, methods and processes of arms procure- ment decision making as an element of Malaysian security policy and the public policy-making process. It emphasizes the need to focus on questions of public accountability rather than transparency, as transparency is not a neutral value: in many countries it is perceived as making a country more vulnerable.1 It is up 1 Ball, D., ‘Arms and affluence: military acquisitions in the Asia–Pacific region’, eds M. Brown et al., East Asian Security (MIT Press: Cambridge, Mass., 1996), p. 106. * The author gratefully acknowledges the help of a number of people in putting this study together.

  • First Step of Many to Repair the Judiciary
    First step of many to repair the judiciary Q: What is your opinion of this bill? * A: It's a step in the right direction, but there should have been a consultation process in coming up with the bill. There is also the issue of the missing Judges' Code of Ethics 2008, which we have yet to see. There are several short-comings with the bill. The first is that there is no procedure for lodging a complaint against a judge. Lim Chee Wee There is also insufficient provision the actual judges' ethics committee's investigative and adjudicative process. And in terms of accountability, there should be a requirement for the publication of an annual report with the number of complaints lodged, how many are disposed of and action taken on a no-name basis. lf one were to compare this with other jurisdictions in terms of international best-practices, for example, the United States, Britain, Australia and Canada, these are the basics that they have in their judicial conduct process. And l think Britain has taken it one step further where they have a Judicial Appointments and Conduct Ombudsman, which actually looks at the Official of Judicial Complaints process and ensures that the Office of Judicial Complaints itself is performing. Q: lf all So,the in shortcomings Britain, you have were an addressed, investigative would body thisand bean oversighta comprehensive body as well. bill? A: If it's addressed in the bill and the code, yes. 0ur present code is rather bare. It only provides for 10 different prohibitions.

  • The Environment and Feng Shui Application in Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Penang, Malaysia
    Eco-Architecture VII 1 THE ENVIRONMENT AND FENG SHUI APPLICATION IN CHEONG FATT TZE MANSION, PENANG, MALAYSIA AZIZI BAHAUDDIN & TEH BOON SOON School of Housing, Building and Planning, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, Malaysia ABSTRACT Feng Shui, literarily translated as wind and water, forms part of the Chinese traditional architecture theory. The philosophy aims to achieve harmonious equilibrium among nature, buildings and people. It continues to be used in dwelling site selections and layout of buildings as well as in the environmental planning, especially in the Form School Feng Shui school of thought. It focuses on site analysis, landscapes and building placements with emphasis on designing with nature and the environment. This Feng Shui approach can be traced in the building design of the Peranakan style architecture of Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, a unique architecture in George Town, Penang. It is a mix of Chinese, Malay and colonial building styles. Unfortunately, this mansion has not been verified with the Feng Shui approach in relating the architecture with nature, despite a claim that was made of its application and for other buildings of the same style. This study addresses the cultural sensitivity of this architecture as a case study in embracing nature for its Feng Shui application. Qualitative analysis was employed to determine whether the design of this mansion corresponded well with favourable architectural conditions placed in the environment as stated in the Form School approach. The method applied included measured drawings, ethnography study of the Peranakan culture, interviews with identified Feng Shui masters and the mansion’s owners. The mansion’s architectural design conformed to the philosophy adapted from the Form School approach, especially in the architectural language.

Many of these landscapes cannot be isolated from the énclave as they are integral to and part of its cultural mosaic and character. Perhaps the most important are the Penang Hill hill-station landscape and the ‗Waterfall‘ Botanic Gardens. The latter is an under-valued ‗garden of the empire‘—a garden that significantly underpinned the development and historical and botanical stature of the Singapore Botanic Gardens. This paper reviews the cultural significance of colonial botanic gardens as they were established around the world during the scientific explosion of the late 1800s.
