The Star - Seven National Laureates Get RM5,000 Monthly Allowance The Star - Seven National Laureates Get RM5,000 Monthly Allowance Tuesday, Jun 25 2019 PUTRAJAYA, 24 June - Seven national laureates have been accorded a RM5,000 monthly appreciation allowance for their contributions in uplifting Bahasa Melayu in the country’s literary development. They are Datuk Seri Dr A. Samad Said, Emeritus Professor Dr Muhammad Salleh, Datuk Noordin Hassan, Datuk Dr Mohd Anuar Rethwan, Datuk Dr Ahmad Khamal Abdullah, Datuk Dr Baharuddin Zainal and Datuk Dr Zurinah Hassan. Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng said the government had approved an allocation of RM5,000 a month per person to the Education Ministry, beginning this month. "This allowance will hopefully help them (the National Laureates), ensure their well-being and provide comfort so that they can continue to contribute ideas, knowledge and high-quality work for the community,” he said at a ceremony to present the Cost of Living Allowance Cheques to the National Laureates here Monday (June 24). Also present at the event held at the Finance Ministry were Port Dickson MP Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, Deputy Finance Minister Datuk Amiruddin Hamzah and Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching. Meanwhile, Anwar said the allowances were a good initiative. "It sends out a clear message from the Pakatan Harapan government, which focuses on economic growth but at the same time, defends the national language as an official language and upholds national literature for the benefit of the public,” he said. National Laureate A. Samad said they did not expect to receive the substantial monetary contribution. "What is important is that the ministry will help us contribute to the nation,” he said. - Bernama.

  • 1 Keynote Address by Prime Minister of Malaysia Yab Tun Dr Mahathir Bin Mohamad First-Year Anniversary of the Pakatan Harapan G
    KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA YAB TUN DR MAHATHIR BIN MOHAMAD FIRST-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE PAKATAN HARAPAN GOVERNMENT ON 9TH MEI 2019 (THURSDAY) AT PUTRAJAYA INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE (PICC) Assalamualaikum and Good Afternoon. 1. I am grateful to be able to be with all of you here and delivering a speech in conjunction with the first-year anniversary of the Pakatan Harapan Government. 2. First of all, I am thankful to be granted longevity in life, thus enabling me to continue serving this country of ours. 3. Secondly, our country remains peaceful, and during this fasting month all Muslims are able to perform their religious obligations in peace and harmony. 4. I am also grateful that during the Government transition, it was not marred by riots or violence despite attempts made to undermine the election results. 5. Feeling grateful, however, does not mean that we are not aware of the heavy responsibilities that we need to shoulder. 6. Pakatan Harapan was established as a coalition of four parties. Its grand purpose - is to topple the Barisan Nasional Government led by Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. 7. The four parties with differing ideas and objectives agreed to work together because all were aware that they would not be able to defeat the BN Government if they were on their own. If they could not set aside their individual needs and join hands to save Malaysia from a kleptocratic Government, the future of this country will be at stake and the people will continue to suffer. It is likely that Malaysia will be what is known as a "failed state".

  • Malaysia's 14Th General Election and UMNO's Fall; Intra-Elite Feuding
    4 Electoral boundaries in Malaysia’s 2018 election Malapportionment, gerrymandering and UMNO’s fall Kai Ostwald Introduction Malaysia’s General Election 14 (GE14) on 9 May 2018 broke with the previ- ous thirteen in a fundamental way: the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) and its coalition partners were defeated for the first time, bringing about an unprecedented transition of power after over six decades of political dominance. Despite the unpopularity of UMNO Prime Minister Najib Razak and widespread frustrations with the cost of living, the outcome was not anticipated. This is largely due to the extensive partisan manipulation of Malaysia’s electoral process, which provided the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition with far- reaching advantages in electoral competition. Of the many advantages, perhaps the most powerful came through biased elec- toral boundaries that use malapportionment and gerrymandering to provide the BN with a reliable and significant seat bonus over the opposition. This bias was enough to fundamentally distort outcomes, for example in the 2013 general elec- tion (GE13) where the BN lost the popular vote by 4% but still emerged with a 20% seat advantage in parliament (Wong 2018 ; Lee 2015 ; Ostwald 2013 ). Rede- lineation exercises concluded just prior to GE14 increased malapportionment further and showed signs of extensive gerrymandering. Critics from the opposi- tion and civil society feared that they would make a turnover of power through the ballot box nearly impossible. Relative to brazen manipulations like phantom voting or ballot box stuffing, biased electoral boundaries do not easily rouse cries of electoral malpractice. However, their effects are powerful.

  • How the Pandemic Is Keeping Malaysia's Politics Messy
    How the Pandemic Is Keeping Malaysia’s Politics Messy Malaysia’s first transfer of power in six decades was hailed as a milestone for transparency, free speech and racial tolerance in the multiethnic Southeast Asian country. But the new coalition collapsed amid an all-too-familiar mix of political intrigue and horse trading. Elements of the old regime were brought into a new government that also proved short-lived. The turmoil stems in part from an entrenched system of affirmative-action policies that critics say fosters cronyism and identity-based politics, while a state of emergency declared due to the coronavirus pandemic has hampered plans for fresh elections. 1. How did this start? Two veteran politicians, Mahathir Mohamad and Anwar Ibrahim, won a surprising election victory in 2018 that ousted then-Prime Minister Najib Razak, who was enmeshed in a massive money-laundering scandal linked to the state investment firm 1MDB. Mahathir, 96, became prime minister again (he had held the post from 1981 to 2003), with the understanding that he would hand over to Anwar at some point. Delays in setting a date and policy disputes led to tensions that boiled over in 2020. Mahathir stepped down and sought to strengthen his hand by forming a unity government outside party politics. But the king pre-empted his efforts by naming Mahathir’s erstwhile right-hand man, Muhyiddin Yassin, as prime minister, the eighth since Malaysia’s independence from the U.K. in 1957. Mahathir formed a new party to take on the government but failed to get it registered.

  • 8 Kedah Excos Sworn in for New Term the Malaysian Insider February 28 , 2012 KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 28
    8 Kedah excos sworn in for new term The Malaysian Insider February 28 , 2012 KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 28 — Eight Kedah state executive councillors (excos) took the oath of office for a new term today at the Istana Anak Bukit in Alor Star, leaving two vacant spots in the state administration led by Datuk Seri Azizan Abdul Razak. They were Datuk Amiruddin Hamzah, Datuk Mohamed Taulan Mat Rasul, Datuk Dr Hamdan Mohamed Khalib, Lim Soo Nee, Abd Ghani Ahmad, Tan Joon Long @ Tan Chow Kang, Datuk Siti Ashah Ghazali and S. Manikumar, state news agency Bernama reported. Conspicuously missing were Kedah PAS deputy commissioner I Datuk Phahrolrazi Zawawi and Kedah PAS deputy commissioner II Datuk Dr Ismail Salleh, who had declined to accept their re-appointments. It has been speculated that Phahrolrazi and Ismail are unhappy with Azizan’s (picture) leadership in relation to various issues that have affected his administration in recent years, and have the support of several other excos. Phahrolrazi, who is reported to be on leave until March 1, previously said he had yet to receive an invitation letter from the state government to attend the swearing-in. “I respectfully inform you that I am rejecting the appointment as Kedah exco,” Phahrolrazi wrote in his letter, specifically mentioning Azizan’s appointment offer made on February 15. The PAS leadership said yesterday it wanted all 10 current Kedah state excos sworn in for the 2012 term, despite Mentri Besar Azizan saying only eight would be reinstated. PAS secretary-general Datuk Mustafa Ali confirmed rumours that Phahrolrazi and Ismail had declined to accept their re-appointments, but stressed that the matter was only a “technical issue.” He said that PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang had met with Azizan as well as the two excos on February 17, where they had explained to him “difficulties” in continuing their duties.

Recalls that Anwar Ibrahim was finance minister and deputy prime minister of Malaysia when he was dismissed from government in 1998. Upon his dismissal, Anwar was arrested, beaten and jailed for six years on politically motivated and trumped up charges. Recalls that Anwar Ibrahim led the opposition coalition to an unprecedented electoral success in Malaysia’s general elections in 2013, winning 51% of the popular vote. Recalls that Anwar Ibrahim’s unjust imprisonment on 10 February 2015 based on politically motivated charges has been widely condemned internationally, and Amnesty International has adopted Anwar Ibrahim as a prisoner of conscience. Believes that the conviction and imprisonment of Anwar Ibrahim was the outcome of an ongoing political conspiracy to end Anwar Ibrahim’s political life and to deprive the opposition of its parliamentary leader in Malaysia. Resolves to call on the international community to pressure the government of Malaysia to uphold the rule of law, and to respect human rights and fundamental freedoms of its citizens. Demands the government of Malaysia to immediately and unconditionally release Anwar Ibrahim from prison.
