Will the River burst the Dam? Surveying Batang Ai before the 7 April by-election by Yi Ge Qiu atang Ai – the River. By BB consensus, this was the BBB source area from which the Iban spread all over Sarawak. Batang Ai – the Dam. This was the River, dammed at the Irup rapids in the mid-1980s, to become Malaysia’s largest operating hy- dro-electric dam. Between the River and the Dam is a tale of pain and hardship for 21 longhouse communities of about 520 families or 3,600 people. Tan Seng Keat The ghost of Road to Sayat flooded resettlement Between 1982 and 1984, they were torn from a homeland and cata- pulted into a resettlement. They were wrenched from a way of life, many left without rice lands in the resettlement when rice cultivation still lay at the heart of Iban cul- ture and its annual cycle of life and ritual. They were promised development and modernity which turned out to be principally out-migration in search of employment and in- come.

  • The Parliamentary By-Elections and the Shaping of Malaysian Political Landscape After the 12Th General Election
    The Parliamentary By-Elections and the Shaping of Malaysian Political Landscape after the 12th General Election The Parliamentary By-Elections and the Shaping of Malaysian Political Landscape after the 12th General Election by: Mohammad Redzuan Oithman University of Malaya 284 The Parliamentary By-Elections and the Shaping of Malaysian Political Landscape after the 12th General Election Abstract The 12 th Malaysian General Election on the 8th March 2008 ended with the ruling coalition, the National Front suffering a rather humiliating defeat that it ever experienced before. For the first time since independence, the party failed to secure the two thirds majority in the parliament and lost the control five states out of thirteen states that formed the Federation of Malaysia. The significance factor that determined the triumph of the opposition front was the role played by Anwar Ibrahim. In the March election, however, Anwar was barred from standing as a candidate due to legal provision after being convicted and jailed for a sodomy case which he vehemently blames as a political conspiracy. Following an allegation that Anwar was involved with a new sodomy case with his close aide, his wife, Wan Azizah who is the president of the Justice Party decided to vacate the parliamentary seat in Permatang Pauh to pave way for Anwar to contest. The result of the by-election proved that the support for the opposition was growing and the Prime Minister, Abdullah Badawi was blamed for the continuous decline of the ruling coalition. This led to his stepping down as the prime minister to pave the way for his deputy Mohd.

    Malaysian News: Auto fuel, car sales, public transit, ports September 23, 2004 1. Calls have been made to move the nation's auto fleets towards becoming diesel driven, similar to Europe, in move to reduce emissions and costs 2. Car sales continue to increase, with non-national brand sale increases outpacing national brand sale increases 3. About 65% of KL's public transit capacity for rail and buses will be nationalized under a new agency. The purpose is to provide more integration and coordination of physical infrastructure, fare structure, routes and scheduling. This is a big change from the many separate privately owned rail and bus lines! 4. Port Klang's throughput continues to grow 5. Port Klang is moving to a new system of tracking cargo that requires shipping agents to provide additional information on freight. Shipping agents are refusing to provide new information and resulting impass could cause massive delays in Port Klang when new system is implemented Oct. 1. 6. Malaysia port has new system to route and inspect cargo in more automatic manner, but also has backup plan in place in case new system fails ******************************************************** ***1.

Tan said diesel was cheaper and cleaner, and engines which used the fuel emitted less noxious gas as compared to the more expensive petrol which produced a lot of carbon monoxide.

  • ISU SURVIVAL POLITIK MUSLIM DI MALAYSIA Oleh Prof
    ISU SURVIVAL POLITIK MUSLIM DI MALAYSIA Oleh Prof. Zakaria Stapa dan Prof. Madya Dr. Ibrahim Abu Bakar PENDAHULUAN Melayu dan Muslim adalah sinonim mengikut Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia (the Federal Constitution of Malaysia). Artikel 160 Intepretation (Interpretasi). “`Malay’ means a person who professes the religion of Islam, habitually speaks the Malay language, conforms to Malay custom and—(a) was before Merdeka Day born in the Federation or in Singapore or born of parents one of whom was born in the Federation or in Singapore, or is on that day domiciled in the Federation or in Singapore; or (b) is the issue of such a person;” (Legal Research Board 1988: 153). Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia juga menyatakan dalam Artikel 3 (1) “Islam is the religion of the Federation; but other religions may be practised in peace and harmony in any part of the Federation”.(Legal Research Board 1988: 2). Islam dan Melayu merupakan elemen yang cukup erat. Ini diakui oleh para pengkaji sejarah Malaysia, perlembagaan Malaysia, undang-undang Malaysia dan politik Malaysia yang berada di Malaysia dan di luar Malaysia. Kaitan dua unsur ini dapat dikesan di kalangan ahli-ahli politik Muslim di Malaysia khususnya isu-isu yang dibangkitkan ketika menjelang pilihanraya umum. Di Malaysia terdapat parti politik yang bernama Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party) yang diringkaskan dengan nama PAS yang muncul sebelum kemerdekaan Tanah Melayu daripada penjajah Inggeris. Tanah Melayu atau Malaya dalam bahasa Inggeris diberikan kemerdekaan pada 31hb. Ogos 1957 dan Malaysia diberikan kemerdekaan pada 16 September 1963. Parti politik Melayu yang tidak menggunakan nama Islam adalah UMNO (the United Malays National Organization) yang juga ditubuhkan sebelum Tanah Melayu mendapat kemerdekaan daripada Inggeris.

  • Perak Bakal Jadi Tumpuan Pemerhati Politik Negara
    12 MAR 2004 Pilihan raya-Perak PERAK BAKAL JADI TUMPUAN PEMERHATI POLITIK NEGARA IPOH, 12 Mac (Bernama) -- Bahang pilihan raya di Perak yang pada awalnya dijangka tidak serancak negeri-negeri lain, tiba-tiba menjadi panas dalam tempoh dua minggu ini sehingga menjadi antara fokus utama pilihan raya umum ke-11. Dengan hanya tiga kerusi parlimen dan lapan kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) yang dikuasai pembangkang pada 1999, Perak pada mulanya dijangka tidak menjanjikan persaingan sengit, terutama kerana tiada isu-isu nasional seperti lima tahun lepas. Bagaimanapun, apabila pencalonan untuk 24 kerusi parlimen dan 59 kerusi DUN di negeri yang mempuynyai 1.17 juta pengundi dibuka esok, Perak bakal menjadi tumpuan pemerhati politik. Yang pasti bertanding ialah lima Menteri Pusat iaitu Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu (Sungai Siput), Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik (Beruas), Datuk Seri Rafidah Aziz (Kuala Kangsar), Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz (Padang Rengas) dan Brig Jen (B) Datuk Seri Abdul Hamid Zainal Abidin (Parit Buntar). Suasana sunyi di Perak tiba-tiba melonjak apabila Pengerusi DAP Lim Kit Siang menyatakan hasrat bertanding di Ipoh Timor selepas beberapa penggal mempertaruhkan nasib politiknya di Pulau Pinang. Tiba-tiba DAP berhasrat menjadikan Perak barisan hadapannya selepas gagal berbuat demikian di Pulau Mutiara itu dan fokus mereka ialah Lembah Kinta yang menawarkan tiga kerusi parlimen dan sembilan DUN. Umno pula yang selama ini mengerakkan segala jenteranya ke arah menawan semula Parit dan Parit Buntar daripada PAS tiba-tiba tersentak apabila kerusi miliknya di Bukit Gantang mahu diberikan kepada rakan komponen Barisan Nasional (BN), Parti Progresif Penduduk (PPP).
