Pencapaian prestasi INTEGRITI yang boleh dibanggakan ini adalah merupakan kesinambungan perancangan kerja lima tahun institut sejak dari tahun 2015 lagi. Ini dibuktikan dengan keupayaan INTEGRITI melaksanakan tugasnya secara berkesan dan konsisten sebagai pusat rujukan dan sekretariat untuk Jawatankuasa Konsultatif Nasional Mengenai Pembiayaan Politik (JKNMPP) sejak dilantik oleh YAB Perdana Menteri pada tahun 2015 sehingga kepada pembentangan laporan berkaitan pada September 2016.

May these Malaysia’s development to be a nation of high integrity, noble deeds be beneficial to all Malaysians and blessed by which is resilient and embraces universal good values. Allah SWT. Although INTEGRITI faced budget allocation constraints in 2016, INTEGRITI managed to demonstrate its level of commitment in organising a variety of high-impact programmes and activities at national and international levels. This is evident through the creation of the Integrity Dashboard and other instruments. The dashboard is developed for the purpose to coordinate and monitor the National Integrity Plan (NIP).

This is proven through INTEGRITI’s ability to perform effectively and consistently as the centre for reference and secretariat for the National Consultative Committee on Political Financing (JKNMPP) appointed by the Prime Minister in 2015 until the time the report was presented in September 2016. I hope the efforts displayed will be continued in line with the government’s aspiration in realising the ‘Transformasi Nasional 2050’ (TN50) plan towards the well-being of the rakyat.

  • Malaysia's 14Th General Election Mahathir Returns to Power
    Malaysia’s 14th General Election Mahathir Returns to Power May 10th, 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In an outcome that surprised everyone, the opposition coalition led by Dr Mahathir Mohamad won the majority of the Parliamentary seats, enabling him to form the next Federal Government. Mahathir’s Pakatan Harapan (PH) or Coalition of Hope together with a Sabah opposition party won 121 of the 222 Parliamentary seats. The outgoing government coalition, National Front (BN) won only 79 seats. The Islamist party, Pan Malaysia Islamic Party (PAS) won 18 seats. The remaining four seats were won by independent candidates and another small opposition party. At the state level, PH now controls five out of the 13 state governments. PH may end up with as many as seven states once the process of forming state governments is completed. The transition process at the Federal level is likely to be smooth with Mahathir acknowledging the role of the head of the civil service in managing the transfer of power. In the coming weeks, it is very likely that the new Federal administration will focus on ensuring a smooth and orderly transition. THE TRANSITION PROCESS Barring any mass defection of PH Members of Parliament, Mahathir is likely to be sworn in as the Prime Minister in the coming days. As expected, the swearing in ceremony has been delayed for unknown reasons. Following his swearing in as the Prime Minister, Mahathir will negotiate with other PH parties on distribution of Cabinet positions. The slow process in Cabinet appointments is unlikely to cause major disruptions to essential services as the government machinery is operated by career civil servants who are not affected by electoral politics.

The country is committed to its goal of achieving a developed nation status by 2020. This goal continues to be pursued against a backdrop of an increasing borderless and more demanding environment with the nation having to meet the challenges of enhancing competitiveness, achieving sustainable development and inclusive growth. The Government is continuously striving for new avenues through which we can maintain and enhance our efficiency and competitiveness through a private-sector driven and people-centred growth. We also need to ensure that competitiveness is not eroded and gains made are sustained and transferred to citizens and businesses. Better regulation is one of the proven instruments available to achieve this. Good regulations are required for good governance in these challenging times. Good regulations are also crucial for harnessing national efforts and resources for competitiveness and sustained economic growth. This necessitates that regulations and the rule-making process keep pace with changing times and circumstances. Effective regulations achieved through a more robust process of analysis and consultation with stakeholders enhances efficiency and accountability and at the same time promotes greater participation, inclusiveness and ownership of the problem resolution process. Reflecting the desire to improve the rule-making process, the Government will introduce a new policy to transform rule-making in Government.

    THE IMPACT OF THE FINANCIAL CRISIS ON POVERTY AND INEQUALITY IN MALAYSIA* Ragayah Haji Mat Zin** Paper to be presented at the WBI-PIDS Follow-Up Workshop on Strengthening Poverty data Collection and Analysis Manila, Philippines April 30-May 3, 2001 * Crude draft and not to be quoted. ** Deputy Director, Institute of Malaysian and International Studies, National University of Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia. E-mail: [email protected]. This paper is written in collaboration with Ms. Saidah Haji Hashim who prepared most of the tables. The author also wishes to thank Dr. Ali Hamsa and his team of the Economic Planning Unit for providing access to the data. 1. Introduction Before the devaluation of the baht in July 1997 that triggered the East Asian financial crisis Malaysia was enjoying an enviable average growth rate of per cent per annum in the four years prior to the crisis. In the beginning most analysts expected it to be contained within a few months. However, the crisis turned out to be unprecedented in terms of the speed and severity of the contagion effect that also spread to countries outside of East Asia. In Malaysia, as in other East Asian countries, the financial crisis quickly deteriorated into an economic and social crisis. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the financial crisis on poverty incidence and income distribution in Malaysia. Unlike in other crisis affected countries such as Indonesia, Thailand and Philippines, where a substantial volume of works impact of the financial crisis on poverty incidence and income distribution have been published, very little work on this subject has been done for Malaysia.

Corona Virus Prime Minister’s Special Mes- sage on Covid-19. Mission and Consular Engage- ment. MFA’s Emergency Services. Many more... 1 FOREWORD “Ola a todos (Hello everyone)”, The only highlight for this issue was the visit to the state of Mato Grosso Do Sul by ASEAN Ambassadors and other members of the ASEAN Committee in Brasil- ia (ACB) in February. As Covid-19 started to hit Brazil, Brazil close its land borders and airspace to oth- er countries. Mask wearing was made mandatory in most of the states, while peo- ple are still allowed to travel internally for essential purposes. Over the past months, the Covid-19 outbreak has literally forced all the diplomatic activities in Brasilia to come to a halt. There is no more business as usual for Mis- sion since the beginning of March although Mission is still functioning. Mission continues to provide consular assistance and travel advice to Malaysians in Brazil, Guyana and Suriname through online services as well as in-office ap- pointments. Apart from following closely the pandemic development in the country, Mission also works in concerted effort with the Task Force back home to coordinate ac- tions in support of making arrangements for Malaysians stranded in foreign countries all over the world to return to Malaysia safely. Together with our other Missions in the region, we played a constructive role in offering timely assistance to Malaysians stranded in Argentina and Bolivia to return home on 22 March and 20 April respectively.

Producing regulations through a more robust process of analysis and stakeholder engagement enhances efficiency and accountability, and also promotes greater participation, inclusiveness and ownership of the end solution or government intervention. In 2013, the launch of the National Policy on the Development and Implementation of Regulations reflected the government’s desire to improve the rule-making process. Regulatory impact statements and public consultations were introduced in order to standardize the way that polices, laws and regulations are developed and improve overall regulatory quality. We are grateful to the OECD for its support in introducing and implementing this policy, drawing on the vast experience and expertise of other countries so that Malaysia can learn from best practice and avoid the mistakes of others. In 2015, Malaysia is proud to be the Chair of ASEAN.
