M. Bakri Musa expresses hope that Abdullah will succeed where M. BAKRI MUSA (in his view) Mahathir has failed.

  • Pm: Learn Good Moral Values
    PM: LEARN GOOD MORAL VALUES By HOHAtZAO A RAHIM PETALING JAVA: A "get-rich-quick" cul• ture evolving in the country has damaged society^ moral and ethical values, Datuk Sen Dr Mahathir Mohamad said. This culture must be contained and this could be done through education, the Prime Minister said yesterday. "It must be done away with and replaced with one that gives priority to long-term gams." he said when opening the Sunway College and a waterpark. He said the alternative culture should also take into consideration society's interests over the indi• vidual's. While education would help, he said, emphasis must be given to instilling moral and ethical values in people's pursuit for higher education. Dr Mahathir added that the country did not want to produce people without values as when they gained knowledge, they could turn out to be "edu• cated criminals." "With the increasing rate of white-collar crime, we must instil good values through education. "No matter how progressive a society is, it may not be able to sustain itself if such values are not part of education," he said. Dr Mahathir added that not all parents and the public knew what was good or bad for society. Thus, the belief that parents would naturally inculcate ALL IN ONE... chairman Musa briefs Dr Mahathir on Bandar Sunway. — STARpic by ABDULLAH SUBIR moral and ethical values in children was not true.

  • Daim: New Financial Hub Proposal Merits Consideration (NST 11/03
    11/03/2000 Daim: New financial hub proposal merits consideration Hardev Kaur in Jakarta JAKARTA, Fri: The proposal for a new financial centre, possibly based in Bandar Seri Begawan, to facilitate financial transactions among Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei, deserves serious consideration despite there being already such centres in East Asia and South-East Asia. Indonesian President Abdurrahman Wahid, who had discussed the proposal with the Sultan of Brunei recently, raised the matter during bilateral talks with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad at the Merdeka Palace yesterday. Finance Minister Tun Daim Zainuddin said details of the proposal as well as implications of the move must be studied. He was asked whether there is room for another centre, considering there are already Labuan International Offshore Financial Centre (IOFC), the Bangkok Financial Centre, Singapore, Hong Kong and Tokyo. "If there is business, why not?" Daim said. In fact, members of the East Asia Growth Area (EAGA) - Malaysia, Brunei Indonesia and the Philippines - have agreed that the Labuan IOFC serve as the financial centre for the grouping. Even so, the proposal should not be rejected outright, he said, adding that Indonesia and Brunei might have their reasons for suggesting it. When Malaysia decided to set up Labuan IOFC, it undertook several detailed studies including looking at operations of existing financial centres such as the one in the Cayman Islands. Daim is in the high-powered delegation accompanying Dr Mahathir on his two-day official visit here. The Finance Minister, who is also Special Functions Minister, held parallel discussions with his counterpart and the republic's other economic ministers.

  • Technocracy in Economic Policy-Making in Malaysia
    Technocracy in Economic Policy-Making in Malaysia Khadijah Md Khalid* and Mahani Zainal Abidin** This article looks at the role of the technocracy in economic policy-making in Malay- sia. The analysis was conducted across two phases, namely the period before and after the 1997/98 economic and financial crises, and during the premiership of four prime ministers namely Tun Razak, Dr Mahathir, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, and Najib Razak. It is claimed that the technocrats played an important role in helping the political leadership achieve their objectives. The article traces the changing fortunes of the technocracy from the 1970s to the present. Under the premiership of Tun Razak, technocrats played an important role in ensuring the success of his programs. However, under Dr Mahathir, the technocrats sometimes took a back seat because their approach was not in line with some of his more visionary ventures and his unconventional approach particularly in managing the 1997/98 financial crisis. Under the leadership of both Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Najib Razak, the technocrats regain their previous position of prominence in policy-making. In conclusion, the technocracy with their expert knowledge, have served as an important force in Malaysia. Although their approach is based on economic rationality, their skills have been effectively negotiated with the demands of the political leadership, because of which Malaysia is able to maintain both economic growth and political stability. Keywords: technocracy, the New Economic Policy (NEP), Tun Abdul Razak, Dr Mahathir Mohamad, National Economic Action Council (NEAC), government-linked companies (GLCs), Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, Najib Tun Razak Introduction Malaysia is a resource rich economy that had achieved high economic growth since early 1970s until the outbreak of the Asian crisis in 1998.
