The heat of the sun did not melt the enthusiasm of the people from all walks of life who had waited patiently and eagerly to exchange Aidilfitri greetings with the prime minister, deputy prime minister and the other ministers. Diplomats and leaders from both sides of the political divide, tourists as well as NGO representatives also came to the open house. The well-wishers were served a variety of food, mostly local delicacies such as satay, rendang, lemang, ketupat and nasi himpit, and those leaving after the meal also received a goodies pack while children were given 'duit raya' cash packets. A free shuttle bus service was provided to pick up and drop off people at three locations, namely Putrajaya Sentral, Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque and Putra Mosque, at 15-minute intervals. -- BERNAMA Copyright © 2016 BERNAMA http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v8/newsindex.php?id=1261350 .

Removing the Race Section in Official Documents Used by Government and Private Sectors As a Gesture for Sustaining National Harmony: a Malaysian’S Perspective
International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences 2017, Vol. 7, No. 7 ISSN: 2222-6990 Removing the Race Section in Official Documents used by Government and Private Sectors as a Gesture for Sustaining National Harmony: A Malaysian’s Perspective Ismi Arif Ismail*, Dzuhailmi Dahalan, Haslinda Abdullah, Turiman Suandi, Steven Eric Krauss & Nurul Akhtar Kamarudin, Institute for Social Science Studies Universiti Putra Malaysia, Serdang, Selangor Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i7/3118 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i7/3118 Abstract This paper examines the perception of Malaysian on the proposed removal of race section in official documents used by government and private organizations. The paper employed mixed method research paradigm. A total sample of 1513 Malaysian residents in Peninsular Malaysia was randomly selected from the whole population and data was collected using structured set of instruments, focus group interview and document analysis. The data was analysed using IBM SPSS software version 24 for both descriptive and inferential analysis. The findings shows that majority of Peninsular Malaysians did not support the proposal to remove race section in the official government and private documents. However, the findings revealed that Chinese and Indian communities are keen to support the proposal of removing the race section in the official government and private documents compared to the Malays, so also Sabah/Sarawak Bumiputera living here in Peninsular. Moreover, Gen Z also support the proposal, which contradict from the Baby Boomer, Gen X and Gen Y. Based on the findings of this paper, the removal of the race section in the official government and private documents, can spark race sensitivity and polemic among the multiple race of Malaysia.

The Outcome of the 12Th Malaysia General Election for the State of Sarawak
Journal of Administrative Science Vol. 8, Issue 1, 87-100, 2011 The Largest Contributors, the Least Beneficiaries: The Outcome of the 12th Malaysia General Election for the State of Sarawak Shaharuddin Badaruddin Suseela Devi Chandran ABSTRACT 12th Malaysian Election 2008 has given a new perspective in Malaysian politics. The achievement of the opposition party in denying two-third majority of the ruling party, the Barisan Nasional (National Front) in the Malaysian parliament has open up the new dimensions in the Malaysian political system. Among the outstanding states that helped the National Front (Barisan Nasional) to maintain the federal government were Sabah and Sarawak. Sabah and Sarawak can be considered as the biggest cash depositors in providing enough seats for the Barisan Nasional to control the federal government. Knowing well that Sabah and Sarawak states had ‘saved’ the National Front from possibly the first ever defeat since independence in 1957, the federal government is very much indebted to these two states. Using this opportunity, these two states have ‘demanded’ more attention from the federal government. The most important issues for these two states have always been the issue of development. However, the outcome is far from expectation. Winning 31 out of 32 seats does not give Sarawak the advantage in getting more post in the cabinet in compare to other states. This paper will provide a great deal of discussions on the issues that arises after the 12th General Election and the possibilities of political maneuvering in the near future.

Fiscal year: Calendar year 371 Long Journey to Structural Reform MASASHI NAKAMURA and SO UMEZAKI or the Abdullah Ahmad Badawi administration, 2005 was the year to F indicate the direction of a medium- to long-term policy. At the General Assembly of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), of which the prime minister himself was the president, he explained the negative aspects of the public support for Malays heretofore and sought to free Malay entrepreneurs from dependence on the government. In partic- ular, he focused on the problem of small Bumiputera contractors who depend on public investment and encouraged their entry into agriculture and agriculture-related industries which can expect to earn income over the long term. However, in 2005, events occurred that displayed the deep-rooted nature of the collusion between Malay entrepreneurs and politicians as well as the difficulty of resolving the problem. One was the exposure of vote-buying behavior in the UMNO elections in September 2004, and the other was a controversy surrounding the Approved Permit (AP) for importation of motor vehicles.

PRS Wanita Chief Has No Plan to Be a Candidate
PRS Wanita Chief Has No Plan To Be A Candidate BERNAMA 05/10/2017 PAKAN, Oct 5 (Bernama) -- The Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) Wanita chief Datuk Seri Doris Sophia Brodie says she has no plan or ambition to be a candidate in the coming Parliamentary election. However, she is all for the view that the party should consider fielding at least one woman candidate in any of its six parliamentary seats in the 14th General Election (GE14). "The candidate should not necessarily be myself as we are not short of very qualified woman candidates in all these constituencies," she said at the PRS Pakan Division annual general meeting here yesterday. Doris said she had been receiving countless calls from people who wanted to know if she would contest in the election. "Everywhere I would go visiting PRS constituencies, people tend to think I am scouting for a seat for myself. "Unfortunately this is the price I have to pay as a politician. The more active you are in politics the more you are in the public's radar," said Doris who is a former deputy president of Dewan Negara. She said her wanting PRS central leadership to consider having more Dayak woman elected representatives was to reciprocate the roles, dedication and commitment played by them in serving the people alongside the men. It was reported that PRS president Tan Sri Dr James Masing had submitted the party's list of candidates for the GE14 to the chief minister and prime minister. He had announced the name of the four candidates, namely Datuk Joseph Salang Gandum (Julau), Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang (Kanowit), Datuk Wilson Ugak Kumbong (Hulu Rajang) and Datuk Masir Kujat (Sri Aman), whom he said, had been endorsed by their respective assemblymen.
