  • Late Tun Fuad Receives National Eminent Journalist Award
    26 OCT 1998 Award-Journalist LATE TUN FUAD RECEIVES NATIONAL EMINENT JOURNALIST AWARD KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 26 (Bernama) -- Former Sabah Yang Dipertua Negeri the late Tun Mohammed Fuad Stephens was posthumously awarded the prestigious Malaysian Press Institute's National Eminent Journalist Award today. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad presented the award to his widow, Toh Puan Rahimah Stephens at the Commonwealth Press Union Biennial Conference opening ceremony here. Born on Sept 14, 1920, Mohammed Fuad became Sabah's first Chief Minister after independence through Malaysia in 1963. His involvement in journalism began when he started contributing to the only newspaper in his home state,the North Borneo News, with the favourite pseudonym of Vox Populi. After a stirring letter that came to be known as the "Blood is Thicker than Water," in which he berated the colonial masters for their indiscrimination against local civil servants, he was invited to write articles for the paper. Mohammed Fuad then set up his own daily newspaper, the Sabah Times with only RM1,000 as his capital after drawing experience from the North Borneo News. The inaugaural edition of the first daily newspaper in North Borneo hit the news stand in March 1952 with him as the editor, typist, reporter, typesetter and delivery boy. Two years later he bought over the North Borneo News and proceeded to combine it with the Sabah Times. He was one of the signatories of the Federation of Malaysia Agreement. Tun Fuad was killed in a plane crash in Tanjung Aru near Kota Kinabalu in 1976. -- BERNAMA NHZ RAZ AAM.

  • Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent
    BIBLIOGRAPHICINFORMATION Why Governments Fail to Capture Economic Rent: The Unofficial Appropriation of Rain Forest Title Rent by Rulers in Insular Southeast Asia Between 1970 and 1999 Source http://www.geocities.com/davidbrown_id/Diss/DWB.Fintext.doc Author 1 Brown, David Walter Author 2 NA Author 3 NA Publication/Conference Unpublished Doctoral Dissertation Edition NA Document Type Dissertation CPI Primary Subject East Malaysia CPI Secondary Subject Political economy; Sabah ; Sarawak; Geographic Terms Sabah; Sarawak Abstract NA CentreforPolicyInitiatives(CPI) PusatInitiatifPolisi http://www.cpiasia.org 1 Chapter 1 Introduction The world’s tropical rain forests are important socially and environmentally as well as by virtue of their contributions to economic growth. As these forests are logged, their social values as generators of rural incomes and their environmental services as biodiversity reserves, carbon sinks, soil reserves, and watersheds tend to diminish. Despite these facts, most governments in the tropics are unable to resist logging these forests in favor of national economic objectives, including: creation of a forest industrial sector, higher employment, positive balance of payments, and increased government revenues. However, given the high economic stakes that can be obtained from their forests, it is seems counterintuitive that tropical governments rarely succeed in optimally harnessing government revenue from this valuable natural resource. This staggering loss of revenue to developing countries obviously has important implications for economic development. Timber revenue could be used, for example, to finance the kind of strategic industrial policies that allow the high performing Asian economies to achieve high levels of economic growth. This dissertation argues that states with rain forests are often unable to collect optimal revenue from the massive profit earned by timber companies that harvest state forests because this profit already has a hidden destination.

  • Title Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Sabah
    Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Title Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Author(s) Faisal, S. Hazis Citation Southeast Asian Studies (2018), 7(3): 341-361 Issue Date 2018-12 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/237246 Right © Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 2, September 2011 Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Faisal S. Hazis* This article traces the major contestations that have taken place in Sabah and Sarawak throughout the 54 years of their independence. The two major areas of contestation are state power and local resources, pitting federal leaders against Sabah and Sarawak’s elites. These contestations have forced the federal govern- ment to accommodate the local elites, thus ensuring the stability of Barisan Nasional (BN) rule in the East Malaysian states. However, Sabah and Sarawak elites are not homogeneous since they have different degrees of power, agendas, and aspirations. These differences have led to open feuds between the elites, resulting in the col- lapse of political parties and the formation of new political alignments. Over almost four decades, a great majority of the people in Sabah and Sarawak have acceded to BN rule. However, in the last decade there have been pockets of resistance against the authoritarian rule of BN and the local elites. This article argues that without accountability and a system of checks and balances, the demand for more autonomy by the increasingly vocal Sabah and Sarawak elites will benefit only them and not the general public.

  • Tree Health Assessment for Roadside Tree in Kota Kinabalu City Centre, Sabah
    BORNEO SCIENCE 39 (2): SEPTEMBER 2018 TREE HEALTH ASSESSMENT FOR ROADSIDE TREE IN KOTA KINABALU CITY CENTRE, SABAH Andy R. Mojiol Faculty of Science and Natural Resources, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Malaysia. ([email protected]) ABSTRACT. This study aimed to assess the health of main tree in the Kota Kinabalu City Centre, Sabah. In this study, principal evaluation standards were made by using visual observation of trees or Visual Tree Assessment (VTA). This study was conducted to identify any effect of damage or defect on trees via the observation of trees at their roots, stems, branches and leaves. There were five zones in the study area, namely from KK Lama and Jesselton Point (Zone 1) to Pasar Besar. The tree health parameters were evaluated from the presence of pests and diseases, trees health, foliage colour, the growth rate of trees, infections of the trees and potential failure of tree roots. In this study, nine of pathogens, pests and diseases of trees were observed, which were termites, fungi, aphid, mushrooms, epiphytes, parasites, ants, weeds and Whiteflies. This study showed that there were 23 species from the 688 stand of trees in the study area. The study found that the state average foliage colour was normal, a moderate growth rate and infection of the tree was still under controlled. The potential failure of tree root was found in low level as well. In a nutshell, the overall health of trees was found to be in good and moderate levels. This study was conducted as a reference in health detection of tree for The City Hall management (DBKK) and also as a reference for University students in conducting tree health assessment.
