With God’s grace we were able to accomplish more than the year before. The credit goes to a great team within the organisation as well as collaboration with kind partners, whether they are government agencies, corporate bodies or other non-pro!t organisations. I must take this opportunity to thank all our partners and all the people who supported us to make our programs a success. I would especially like to express our deepest appreciation to the Department of National Unity and Social Integration for collaborating in Global Peace Leadership Exchange and Midnight Football, both of which created impacts. We are also grateful to Asian Football Confederation (AFC) for engaging us in the innovative and meaningful program of Midnight Football. The mission of GPFM is to create a culture of peace. I believe our unifying vision of ‘One Family under God’ can transcend the many barriers of ethnicity, nationality and religion, fostering love among all people as members of one human family. Moving forward, we will continue to strengthen our relationships with strategic partners developed over the last few years and engage many others in an effort to expand the impact of our programs locally and internationally. You can help us by offering your feedback and suggestions so that we can keep improving and become more effective. Our challenge ahead is to continue planting the seeds of peace in the hearts of mankind – the most important thing we can do in the world. I know that with your help, no matter what the challenges, we will achieve this ambition. I would like to thank everyone who makes this vital work possible – our supporters, donors and volunteers.

  • By-Elections in Kuala Selangor No Ordinary Affair, Says Anwar
    27 MAY 1997 Anwar-Election BY-ELECTIONS IN KUALA SELANGOR NO ORDINARY AFFAIR, SAYS ANWAR KUALA SELANGOR, May 27 (Bernama) -- Acting Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the by-elections in Kuala Selangor is not an ordinary by-election as it will elect the new head of the Selangor state government. As such, the Barisan Nasional (BN) machinery in the Kuala Selangor division, should work hard to woo support to ensure victory of BN candidates contesting in Permatang state seat and Kuala Selangor parliamentary seat. "If the federal government and party leadership showed continued commitment, I feel the locals should feel more responsible not only to ensure victory but to lend solid and total support," he said when addressing the Kuala Selangor BN by-election machinery here today. Anwar, who is also Acting Umno president, referred to the Permatang state seat contested by Datuk Abu Hassan Omar, who had been named as the new Selangor Menteri Besar and Datuk Jamaluddin Adnan fielded in the Kuala Selangor parliamentary seat. The by-elections are held when Abu Hassan and Jamaluddin resigned simultaneously on May 2 in a direct swap of seats when Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad named Abu Hassan as Selangor Menteri Besar. Under the Selangor State Constitution, a Menteri Besar must be a member of the State Legislative Assembly. Abu Hassan, who also resigned as Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister on May 2, was then incumbent Kuala Selangor MP. Abu Hassan is locked in a straight fight with PAS' Haji Mohd Maskuri Haji Mardzuki while Jamaluddin is up against Ahmad Alang, also from PAS.

Penjelasan ini akan merangkumi sebelas negeri di Semenanjung Malaysia termasuk Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur dan Wilayah Persekutuan Putrajaya. Pencalonan wanita Muslim pada peringkat awal bagi semua negeri di Semenanjung Malaysia ternyata memberikan suatu perubahan yang besar dalam politik. Di dalam sejarah, telah tercatat bahawa wanita Muslim merupakan golongan yang terawal menonjolkan diri dalam parti politik. Walaupun demikian, mereka mula melibatkan diri dalam pilihan raya yang diadakan pada tahun 1959. Manakala calon wanita yang bukan beragama Islam pula telah pun berada dalam senarai pencalonan pada peringkat awal pilihan raya yang dijalankan sebelum Malaysia mencapai kemerdekaan. Meskipun begitu, golongan wanita Muslim akhirnya mengambil bahagian dalam proses pencalonan pilihan raya sehinggalah ke hari ini. Penyertaan calon-calon wanita Muslim ini ternyata memberi satu impak yang luar biasa berikutan pembaharuan- pembaharuan yang telah dilaksanakan setakat ini. Oleh itu, berikut adalah senarai pencalonan calon wanita Muslim dari tahun 1959 sehingga tahun 2008 bagi semua negeri di Semenanjung Malaysia meliputi kerusi DUN dan Parlimen. 54 3.1 Johor Johor Darul Ta‟zim merupakan negeri yang terletak di selatan Semenanjung Malaysia.
