  • Najib's Fork-Tongue Shows Again: Umno Talks of Rejuvenation Yet Oldies Get Plum Jobs at Expense of New Blood
    NAJIB'S FORK-TONGUE SHOWS AGAIN: UMNO TALKS OF REJUVENATION YET OLDIES GET PLUM JOBS AT EXPENSE OF NEW BLOOD 11 February 2016 - Malaysia Chronicle The recent appointments of Tan Sri Annuar Musa, 59, as Umno information chief, and Datuk Seri Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah, 65, as Kedah menteri besar, have raised doubts whether one of the oldest parties in the country is truly committed to rejuvenating itself. The two stalwarts are taking over the duties of younger colleagues, Datuk Ahmad Maslan, 49, and Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir, 51, respectively. Umno’s decision to replace both Ahmad and Mukhriz with older leaders indicates that internal politics trumps the changes it must make to stay relevant among the younger generation. In a party where the Youth chief himself is 40 and sporting a greying beard, Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Razak has time and again stressed the need to rejuvenate itself and attract the young. “Umno and Najib specifically have been saying about it (rejuvenation) for quite some time but they lack the political will to do so,” said Professor Dr Arnold Puyok, a political science lecturer from Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. “I don’t think Najib has totally abandoned the idea of ‘peremajaan Umno’ (rejuvenation). He is just being cautious as doing so will put him in a collision course with the old guards.” In fact, as far back as 2014, Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin said older Umno leaders were unhappy with Najib’s call for rejuvenation as they believed it would pit them against their younger counterparts. He said the “noble proposal” that would help Umno win elections could be a “ticking time- bomb” instead.

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.

  • 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.

  • All Running Smoothly for BN to Retain Kota Belud Malaysiakini.Com May 2, 2013 by Aidila Razak
    All running smoothly for BN to retain Kota Belud MalaysiaKini.com May 2, 2013 By Aidila Razak SABAH Nordin Kanuh's eldest child just finished secondary school but the self-employed man cannot afford to send him to university. "We don't have the money, so I told him to enrol in Form Six first," Nordin, a 45-year-old father of three, said. NONEHe is probably among parents whom Pakatan Rakyat are targeting in its promise to make tertiary education free for all Malaysians. However, this promise is not winning him over. For Nordin (right), who lives in Kampung Kinasaraban in Kota Belud, some 60km from Kota Kinabalu, other concerns, such as running water, are more pressing. "The BN government had just started a project so that we can get running water... "If the opposition party wins in my area, then I believe the project will be stopped. How much longer will we then have to wait for running water?" he asked. Nordin will vote in the state constituency of Kadamaian, one of three in the parliamentary seats under Kota Belud where Sabah BN secretary and incumbent Abdul Rahman Dahlan is taking on four others, including PKR greenhorn Isnaraissah Munirah Majilis. NONEIn Kota Belud town on Labour Day to attend the Kaamatan or harvest festival, he said he hopes the people in Kadamaian would think the same way as he does. "But I don't know. The opposition is getting stronger there. Everywhere in Kadamaian I keep hearing ‘Ini Kalilah', but I am ‘Tatap'," he said, referring to the BN campaign slogan ‘Tatap BN'.

Five civilians were injured, three seriously from stray bullets fired by the robbers and police. They have been admitted to Tawau Hospital. One of eight robbers was shot dead by police and two were captured when they raided the town and robbed a goldsmith's shop this morning. The Prime Minister said he had not received a full report on this morning's incident in Semporna but regretted the injury to civilians and the fear that gripped the town. He said the Federal Government would step up security in Sabah waters in view of the frequent pirate attacks in the area.
