Datuk Razali bin Idris: Assalamualaikum warahmatullaahi wabarakaatuh. Salam sejahtera. Tuan Yang di-Pertua Ketua Bahagian Jelebu; Abah Perdana Menteri Presiden Bersatu; Ahli Dewan Negara jangan cemburu; Tuan Yang di-Pertua, soalan saya nombor satu. 1. Datuk Razali bin Idris minta Perdana Menteri menyatakan, pelaksanaan dan keberkesanan Majlis Kemakmuran Bumiputera (MKB) yang dilihat dijadikan platform tertinggi dalam usaha memperkasakan pembangunan sosioekonomi bumiputera. Tuan Yang di-Pertua: Dipersilakan Yang Amat Berhormat Perdana Menteri. Tan Sri Muhyiddin bin Mohd Yassin [Perdana Menteri]: Assalamualaikum warahmatullaahi wabarakaatuh. Sebelum saya menjawab soalan ini, saya hendak ucapkan tahniah kepada Tuan Yang di-Pertua yang baharu dipilih oleh Dewan Negara sebagai Tuan Yang di-Pertua yang baharu... [Tepuk] Tuan Yang di-Pertua: Kembali. Tan Sri Muhyiddin bin Mohd Yassin: Tuan Yang di-Pertua, kerajaan sentiasa komited untuk terus memperkasa agenda bumiputera sebagai agenda nasional. Ini kerana, kita mendapati bahawa meskipun pelbagai usaha telah dilakukan dan kejayaan dicapai, namun kedudukan sosioekonomi bumiputera masih perlu dilonjakkan. Secara perbandingan, tahap kemiskinan bumiputera sebanyak 7.2 peratus pada tahun 2019, berbanding kaum lain. Manakala, kadar pengangguran bumiputera bagi suku kedua, tahun 2020, sebanyak 5.2 peratus berbanding purata nasional sebanyak 5.1 peratus. Pemilikan ekuiti bumiputera dalam sektor korporat pula cuma berada pada tahap 16.2 peratus pada tahun 2015, berbanding bukan bumiputera sebanyak 30.7 peratus dan pegangan asing sebanyak 45.3 peratus. Sehubungan dengan itu, kerajaan telah mengambil keputusan untuk mewujudkan Majlis Kemakmuran Bumiputera sebagai platform tertinggi untuk memperbaharui dan memperkukuh pembangunan sosioekonomi bumiputera. Majlis ini akan dipengerusikan oleh saya dan dianggotai oleh beberapa anggota Jemaah Menteri, Ketua Setiausaha Negara, ketua syarikat berkaitan kerajaan (GLC) dan juga tokoh-tokoh perniagaan bumiputera. Untuk makluman Ahli Yang Berhormat Senator, MKB akan bertindak sebagai platform tertinggi dalam usaha memperkasa pembangunan sosioekonomi bumiputera. Penubuhan majlis ini adalah sebahagian daripada kerangka intervensi strategik untuk memandu dan mempercepat pemerkasaan ekonomi bumiputera melalui usaha-usaha peningkatan kapasiti dan keupayaan merentas pelbagai program. 2 DN 7.9.2021 Tuan Yang di-Pertua, bagi memastikan majlis ini mencapai objektif penubuhannya, ia akan didukung oleh dua Jawatankuasa iaitu Jawatankuasa Pemandu yang akan dipengerusikan oleh Yang Berhormat Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, yakni Menteri Tugas-tugas Khas, dan jawatankuasa kerja yang akan dipengerusikan oleh Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Unit Peneraju Agenda Bumiputera (TERAJU). Kedua-dua jawatankuasa ini akan bersidang secara berkala serta melibatkan semua agensi pelaksana yang berkaitan. Untuk makluman Dewan yang mulia ini, Jawatankuasa Pemandu Majlis ini telah pun bersidang buat kali yang pertamanya pada 11 Ogos 2020. TERAJU telah pun diberikan mandat sebagai agensi penyelaras utama bagi intervensi strategik, inisiatif dan program pembangunan sosioekonomi bumiputera serta pembangunan pangkalan data bumiputera yang merentasi semua kementerian, agensi dan GLC. Kerajaan akan memperkemaskan dan menambah baik pangkalan data berpusat bumiputera bagi mengumpul maklumat yang terkini, lengkap dan berkualiti bagi perancangan dasar dan intervensi strategik yang akan dipacu oleh Majlis Kemakmuran Bumiputera ini. Akhir sekali, saya ingin menjelaskan bahawa pencapaian kementerian- kementerian, agensi-agensi dan GLC dalam mengerakkan agenda pemerkasaan bumiputera akan dipantau dan dinilai melalui kerangka kerja Key Performance Indicator (KPI), dengan izin, yang bakal melibatkan semua ketua agensi yang berkaitan. Terima kasih. Tuan Sr. Haji Mohamad Apandi bin Mohamad: Tuan Yang di-Pertua... Tuan Yang di-Pertua: Soalan tambahan. Datuk Razali bin Idris: Terima kasih Yang Amat Berhormat Perdana Menteri. Secara prinsipnya, kita amat bersetuju apa jua kepentingan untuk Melayu bumiputera yang mana, apabila Melayu bumiputera berjaya, kaum-kaum lain pun mendapat faedah. Akan tetapi, di sini ada satu perkara yang saya hendak tanya sebagai soalan tambahan. Ketidakseimbangan pendapatan dan peluang ekonomi sesama bumiputera- ia tertumpu kepada negeri-negeri yang ramai Melayu dan bumiputera seperti negeri Kelantan, Terengganu,

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The formation of Malaysia is a process of merging an independent state with British 'self-governing' colonies in Southeast Asia to form a new federal state. The merger was legally compromised involving three levels of comprehensive consultation from 1961 to 1963, namely the MSCC, the Cobbold Commission, and the IGC. There has been confusion among Malaysians on the meaning and history of Malaysia Day, which was celebrated on 16 September. Sabah and Sarawak are the 12th and 13th states in the Federation of Malaysia. Since 2010, the people of Sabah and Sarawak have begun to polemics about two historical dates, namely August 31 and September 16 which directly disputes the status quo of 'state' within the Federation of Malaysia. This article attempts to provide a historical perspective based on the major sources during the process.

    Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Title Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Author(s) Faisal, S. Hazis Citation Southeast Asian Studies (2018), 7(3): 341-361 Issue Date 2018-12 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/237246 Right © Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 49, No. 2, September 2011 Domination, Contestation, and Accommodation: 54 Years of Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysia Faisal S. Hazis* This article traces the major contestations that have taken place in Sabah and Sarawak throughout the 54 years of their independence. The two major areas of contestation are state power and local resources, pitting federal leaders against Sabah and Sarawak’s elites. These contestations have forced the federal govern- ment to accommodate the local elites, thus ensuring the stability of Barisan Nasional (BN) rule in the East Malaysian states. However, Sabah and Sarawak elites are not homogeneous since they have different degrees of power, agendas, and aspirations. These differences have led to open feuds between the elites, resulting in the col- lapse of political parties and the formation of new political alignments. Over almost four decades, a great majority of the people in Sabah and Sarawak have acceded to BN rule. However, in the last decade there have been pockets of resistance against the authoritarian rule of BN and the local elites. This article argues that without accountability and a system of checks and balances, the demand for more autonomy by the increasingly vocal Sabah and Sarawak elites will benefit only them and not the general public.

  • University of Perpetual Help System-DALTA College of Law
    University of Perpetual Help System-DALTA College of Law FOREWORD Philippines maintains a dormant claim over the sovereignty of eastern Sabah based on the claim that in 1658 the Sultan of Brunei had ceded the northeast portion of Borneo to the Sultan of Sulu; and that later in 1878, an agreement was signed by the Sultan of Sulu granting the North Borneo Chartered Company a permanent lease over the territory. Malaysia considered this dispute as a "non-issue", as there is no desire from the actual people of Sabah to be part of the Philippines or of the Sultanate of Sulu. As reported by the Secretary- General of the United Nations, the independence of North Borneo was brought about as the result of the expressed wish of the majority of the people of the territory in a 1963 election. This research will determine whether or not Philippines have proprietary rights over Sabah. Jennylyn B. Albano UPHSD- College of Law 1 | P a g e INTRODUCTION This research will focus on the History of Sabah and determination of whether who really owns it. As we all know even before our ancestors are already fighting for our right over this state however, up until now dispute is still on going. Sabah is one of the 13 member states of Malaysia, and is its easternmost state. It is located on the northern portion of the island of Borneo. It is the second largest state in the country after Sarawak, which it borders on its southwest. It also shares a border with the province of East Kalimantan of Indonesia in the south.

  • Cobbold Commission
    Report of the Commission of Enquiry, North Borneo and Sarawak, 1962 Also known as the Cobbold Commission 148 (d) Name of the Federation We encountered some opposition to the name “Malaysia”, particularly from a number of non-Muslim elements of the population in Sarawak. This opposition stems from the same cause as the anxieties about Religion, Language and the Head of Federation, with which we deal elsewhere in this Section. They all reflect the fears held by the non-Malays and non-Muslims that the effect of Malaysia will be to put them in a position inferior to that of the Malays and Muslims. We cannot see, however, that any other name would be appropriate in view of the geographical-historical relevance of the name of Malaysia and its wide current usage. We believe, moreover, that in fact objections to the name would not persist for long. We recommend, however, that the word “Malaysia” should be generally incorporated into the Malay language: at present it is widely translated into Malay as “Melayu Raya”. (e) Religion Feeling on this point ran much stronger. There are differences of opinion among the Commission. (i) Views of the Chairman and British members The non-Muslim communities are most insistent that there should be complete religious freedom as to worship, education, and propagation, in the Borneo territories. We recommend the insertion in the State Constitution of a specific provision to this effect. There remain the provisions in the existing Federal Constitution of Malaya that Islam is the national religion and that certain public expenditure may be incurred for Islamic purposes.

  • Is Malaysia a Secular Or a Theocratic State?1
    Is Malaysia a Secular or a Theocratic State?1 By Dato’ Seri Mohd Hishamudin Yunus2 10 September 2020 Let me begin by saying that, based on the Federal Constitution, Malaysia is a secular state and not a theocratic Islamic state. However, there is, at present, a perceivable lack of appreciation among Malaysians that Malaysia is a secular state and not a theocratic Islamic state. This is, to some extent, due to the fact that the issue had been politicised by our political leaders. For example, in 2001, the then Prime Minister Tun Mahathir Mohamad declared that Malaysia was an “Islamic state”.3 Let me say at the outset that this is a mere political statement and nothing more than that. With respect to the then Prime Minister, such a statement should not have been made as it may cause — and indeed it has caused — unnecessary confusion among Malaysians. In order to know whether Malaysia is a secular state or an Islamic theocratic state, we have to examine our Federal Constitution both as to its history and its provisions. For, only upon embarking such an exercise will we have a better and clearer understanding of the relationship between the religion of Islam and our system of government in the context of constitutional law. Historical perspective Therefore, let us examine the history of our Federal Constitution in order to determine whether Malaysia is a secular state or otherwise. On Malaysia’s historical development, in 1956 the Reid Commission4 was tasked with the responsibility to draft the Federal Constitution. This Commission came up with a report known as the Reid Report.

  • Teaching Form Five History in Malaysia: Prospects and Challenges
    HISTORY AND THE NEW MEDIA: TEACHING FORM FIVE HISTORY IN MALAYSIA: PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES Shakila Yacob, Rosilawati Zainol, Ahmad Kamal Ariffin Mohd Rus University of Malaya (MALAYSIA) Abstract Digital history, is “an approach to examining and representing the past that takes advantage of new communication technologies such as computers and the Web. It draws on essential features of the digital realm, such as databases, hypertextualization, and networks, to create and share historical knowledge.” This definition comes from the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media, one of the earliest proponents of digital history, whose web site showcases several digital history projects. In Europe and the US, such an approach or methodology is very popular and provides an effective teaching mechanism. However, in Malaysia, “digital history” is quite unknown and rarely explored by academicians or teachers of history at the undergraduate or even secondary-school levels. Even at the university level, there is not yet a course offered on digital humanities. Thus, this study seeks to instil awareness among teachers on the use of new media in teaching history. An educational history web site was created or developed to provides history modules that integrate the new media and innovative approaches in teaching Form Five History. A blog was also set up as another means of channeling information to history teachers in a more interactive, quicker, and easier manner. In summary, this approach has the capability to significantly impact the delivery of Form Five history and at the same time inculcate deep interest based on innovative, interactive, and attractive teaching and learning methods.

  • Sabah 20-Point Agreement
    Sabah 20-point Agreement From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The 20-point agreement, or the 20-point memorandum, is a list of 20 points drawn up by North Borneo, proposing terms for its incorporation into the new federation as the State of Sabah, during negotiations prior to the formation of Malaysia on 16 September 1963[1][2]. Some of the twenty points were incorporated, to varying degrees, into what became the Constitution of Malaysia; others were merely accepted orally, thus not gaining legal status. The memorandum often serves as a focal point amongst those who argue that Sabah's rights within the Federation have been eroded over time[3].

  • North Borneo, Known Since 1963 As Sabah, Had Since 1881 Represented the Last of a Dying Species, the Chartered Commercial Company
    COMMUNAL POLITICS IN MALAYSIAN BORNEO C. PAUL BRADLEY University of Michigan, Flint College HE ENTRY of the peoples of British Borneo into an era of mass politics has ~ been swift, almost entirely compressed in the early years of the 1960’s. Cer- tain fortuitous factors intervened to accelerate what originally promised to be a slow-paced process. These were chiefly: (1) the advocacy in May 1961 of an enlarged Federation of Malaysia by the Prime Minister of Malaya, Tunku Abdul Rahman, offering the option of independence by adherence to an established state; (2) the surprising momentum which the Malaysian proposal acquired between 1961-63, partly due to its firm support by British colonial officials in Borneo; and ( 3 ) the availability of existent Malayan political forms, particularly the Alliance concept of communally based political parties joined together in a governing coali- tion, which proved transferable to the similarly multi-racial society in Borneo. The rapid pace of this change was the more noteworthy, since the antecedent colonial tradition had been strongly authoritarian. Until World War II Sarawak had been for over a century the personal preserve of James Brooke, the &dquo;White Rajah,&dquo; and his heirs; North Borneo, known since 1963 as Sabah, had since 1881 represented the last of a dying species, the chartered commercial company. After the war both had become Crown Colonies with a British governor wielding all sig- nificant executive authority. Legislative councils with initially limited powers and restricted electorates were gradually becoming partially popular bodies. Yet within a period of less than three years, a complex multi-party system emerged in both territories, functioning by 1963 with the full accouterments of parliamentary democ- racy.

  • 2020 JOURNAL of BORNEO-KALIMANTAN (JBK) Revisiting Early Political History of Modern Sara
    Journal of Borneo-Kalimantan. Vol 6(1) 2020 JOURNAL OF BORNEO-KALIMANTAN (JBK) Revisiting early Political History of Modern Sarawak through the making of Stephen Kalong Ningkan as Sarawak’s first Chief Minister Stanley Bye Kadam-Kiai* Dick Lembang Dugun Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Malaysia Sarawak *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract This paper narrates a political story of modern Sarawak from 1961 to 1974. The modern political history of Sarawak began with the conceptualisation and the formulation of the Federation Malaysia. The significant events that shaped and influenced the political history of modern Sarawak include: the British- Malayan Government meetings in November 1961 and July 1962; the setting up of the Cobbold Commission of Enquiry; the formulation of the Malaysia Solidarity and Consultative Committee (MSCC); the formation of the Inter- Governmental Committee (IGC); the signing the Malaysia Agreement of 1963; the controversies surrounding the making of the first Chief Minister and of the making of the first local State Governor; the cabinet crises of 1965 and 1966; the proclamation of the state of emergency in Sarawak in 1966 by the Federal Parliament which led to the removal of its first Chief Minister; and the establishment of the Sarawak Alliance and the Native Alliance. This historical account of the early history of modern Sarawak is not complete without the description of the ideas and the political struggles of Stephen Kalong Ningkan, the State’s first Chief Minister, and the
