Karim Raslan discusses the strengths Expectations and weaknesses of Mahathir’s hand-picked successor,Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. He maintains that Abdullah will do well at moderating the influence of Malaysia’s more radical Islamic leaders, but page 9 doubts whether the new prime minister can live up to the excessive expectations that the polit- ical transition has engendered. M. Bakri Musa expresses hope that Abdullah will succeed where M. BAKRI MUSA (in his view) Mahathir has failed.

SE A Women in Politics and Decision - M a k i n g Expanding Democracy, Enlarging Women’s Spaces A Report on Malaysia by Maria Chin Abdullah INTRODUCTION In Malaysia, women’s participation is being challenged to its fullest. More women are educated, forming 47.1% of female labor force participation. Those employed are mostly in the service industries and other sectors such as manufacturing (30.1%), wholesale, retail trade, hotels and restaurant, and agriculture (15.9%). Women today consist of almost half of the population and exceed boys in the tertiary sector by a ratio of 80:20. Despite these achievements, however, women’s labor force engagement remains confined to “traditional women’s occupations” such as those of primary school teachers, data entry clerks and other clerical jobs.

On the evening of 10 February, police arrested Zulkifli Anwar Ulhaque, better known as Zunar, at his home in Kuala Lumpur on charges of sedition for posting a tweet that suggested the Federal Court's decision to uphold the conviction of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim earlier in the day was politically motivated. "Those in the black robes were proud when passing sentence. The rewards from their political masters must be lucrative," Zunar said in his tweet. Zunar, 52, was taken into custody at Bukit Aman police station in Kuala Lumpur. On 11 February, the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate Court issued a three-day remand order that allowed police to detain Zunar at Dang Wangi police station until 14 February.

DAP Moves to Ease Fears Over Islamic State Malaysiakini.Com January 21, 2011
DAP moves to ease fears over Islamic state Malaysiakini.com January 21, 2011 Following attempts by Umno and MCA to intimidate Chinese voters in Tenang with PAS' Islamic state agenda, DAP is moving to allay such fears, stressing that PAS is now a party that fights for all ethnic groups. "MCA is sleeping, thinking that it is still 1999 when people were afraid of an Islamic state. In fact, PAS is now talking about a welfare state and its battles for the benefit of all races," Johor DAP chief Dr Boo Cheng Hau said at a DAP dinner in Labis last night. "Umno is the one still talking racial politics. We don't call our home minister Hishammuddin (Hussein), we call him Kerismuddin because he always brandishes the keris." Besides Boo, other DAP leaders expressed their support for PAS at the RM50 a head fund-raising dinner attended by some 800 passionate Chinese supporters, where DAP also raised another RM4,555 in on-the-spot donations. DAP Rasah MP Anthony Loke rebutted MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek's statement earlier that Chinese who voted for PAS would be sending the Malay community the message that they were willing to accept the country as an Islamic state. "We will vote for PAS on Jan 30 for a fair and corruption-free government, not for an Islamic state. We vote to change the government, not merely for PAS, nor an Islamic state," Loke (right) said. The party youth chief then turned aggressive: "If we vote for Umno, it means that we accept Umno's continued oppression of us and allow the party to continue its extreme racial statements and behaviour." Islamic state is not Pakatan common policy His statement was echoed by DAP parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang, who pointed out that Penang, Selangor and Perak, which are ruled by Pakatan Rakyat, have not turned into Islamic states.

The Implication of Conjunctive Element Shifts in the Translation of Argumentative Texts
KEMANUSIAAN Vol. 25, No. 1, (2018), 19–41 The Implication of Conjunctive Element Shifts in the Translation of Argumentative Texts SIEW HUI SHENG SOH BEE KWEE *LOOI WAI LING Malaysian Languages and Applied Linguistics, Faculty of Languages and Liguistics, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Published online: 20 April 2018 To cite this article: Siew, H.S., Soh, B.K. and Looi, W.L. 2018. The implication of conjunctive element shifts in the translation of argumentative texts. KEMANUSIAAN the Asian Journal of Humanities 25(1): 19–41, https://doi.org/10.21315/kajh2018.25.1.2 To link to this article: https://doi.org/10.21315/kajh2018.25.1.2 Abstract. This study attempts to identify the implication of conjunctive element shifts in the Chinese translation of argumentative column articles by an established columnist. More specifically, this study focuses on the implication of a cohesive shift, which includes explicitations, implicitations, shifts and wrong translations of conjunctive elements in the translated text. The texts in this study are argumentative in nature, and the use of conjunctive elements is pivotal in guiding the reader on the flow of the argument at hand. Through in- depth analysis and observation, it is found that changes in conjunctive elements can affect a translation in six possible ways: altering the intensity of the message, shifting the focus of the message, altering the tone and manner of the texts, causing repetitious and intrusive translations, changing the interpretation of the text, and altering the conversational-like element in the source text.
