  • "Menteri Besar Designate" Factor Will Boost Bn's Chances in Gerik
    20 NOV 1999 Tajol-MB "MENTERI BESAR DESIGNATE" FACTOR WILL BOOST BN'S CHANCES IN GERIK GERIK, Nov 20 (Bernama) -- There was much excitement at the nomination centre here for the Gerik Parliamentary and the three state seats within it, not only because of the straight fights but also among the candidates was someone who is likely to be Perak's next Chief Executive. When the Returning Officer announced that Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Tajol Rosli Ghazali, 55, has been accepted as a candidate for the Kenering state at 1.15pm, there was loud applause from the crowd of 4,000 which believed that the Gerik MP since 1978 would be their new Menteri Besar. Gerik has 38,637 voters spread among three state constituencies of Pengkalan Hulu (14, 848 voters), Temenggor (11,879) and Kenering (11,910) and are known to be a BN stronghold where PAS and Keadilan are trying to sneak in. Tajol Rosli had won the Kenering seat and had been the assemblyman for nine months in 1977 after his father Tan Sri Ghazali Jawi vacated the seat and was named an ambassador. The soft-spoken Tajol Rosli insisted that he did not receive any indication from Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir about the Menteri Besar's post. Nevertheless the majority of the people in Gerik were confident that he would be the next Menteri Besar of Perak. "He has a clean record and is a moderate figure," said the BN candidate for Pengkalan Hulu, Ibrahim Mohamed Hanafiah. He said the "Menteri Besar Designate" factor would greatly help the BN campaign and there had been no personal attack against Tajol by the opposition.

Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas.

  • The Palm Oil Pioneer: Commander W.L
    SUSAN M. MARTIN MARTIN SUSAN M. The UP Saga Susan M. Martin Histories of the plantations sector in Malaysia have largely focused on the rubber industry and on the rise and fall of big British-owned colonial enter- prises. But since independence, the sector has entered a new phase of spectacular growth founded on the oil palm. This volume offers a radically different history by telling the fascinating story of United Plantations Berhad (UP), a firm of Scandinavian origin that has spanned both eras and evolved along quite different lines from the normal models of British imperial business. The book is also unusual in that the author had full access to well-preserved company records. Tracing the company’s origins before the First World War, The UP Saga describes the crisis years of economic depression, Japanese occupa- T tion and the turmoil of the Emergency, followed by Merdeka and the years he of spectacular growth that have lasted to the present day. ‘[The UP Saga] is expertly researched and is therefore a radically differ- UP ent history of the plantation industry. It offers the reader an authoritative and quite remarkable study … authenticated by the personal experiences The of many recognised experts in this field. … Through her work on The UP S Saga Susan Martin has produced a work of historic importance and great aga interest to all those interested in the development of the global palm oil industry.’ ~ William King, London Metropolitan University UP ‘Potential purchasers should not be fooled by the title into believing that this book is merely yet another company history.

The remaining seats went to Barisan Nasional (BN). On 17.3.2008, the appellant was appointed the Menteri Besar of Perak (the MB) by His Royal Highness the Sultan of Perak (HRH). On 5.2.2009 three members of the LA for Behrang, Changkat Jering and Jelapang declared and informed HRH that they no longer supported the PKR and instead threw their support behind BN. The appellant then had an audience with HRH on the same day where he was informed that his request for dissolution of the LA was rejected by HRH. He was then directed to tender the resignation of the Executive Council, as he no longer commands the confidence of the majority of the members of the LA. The direction was made pursuant to Art.

    Contested Nationalisms and Propaganda: Birth Pangs of a Malaysian Nation, 1957-1969 By Cheong Soon Gan A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Peter Zinoman (Chair) Professor Jeffrey Hadler Professor Andrew Barshay Fall 2012 Contested Nationalisms and Propaganda: Birth Pangs of a Malaysian Nation, 1957-1969 Copyright 2012 by Cheong Soon Gan Abstract Contested Nationalisms and Propaganda: Birth Pangs of a Malaysian Nation, 1957-1969 by Cheong Soon Gan Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Peter Zinoman, Chair This dissertation looks at how the newly independent Malaysian state used propaganda as one of the tools in forging a new nationalism and specific values of citizenship in the face of enduring ethnic cleavages and contesting visions of nationhood. I look at the period from independence in 1957 to the race riots in 1969 that claimed nearly 200 lives and plunged the country into a state of Emergency for a year. As Malaya achieved independence, the contest between competing visions of the nation that began after World War II not only remained unresolved but also continued to intensify during the 1960s. One vision constructed a nation based on the primacy of the indigenous ethnic group, the Malays, while non-Malays advanced a vision that emphasized the equality of all ethnic groups in the nation. The former became the basis of the official nationalism of independent Malaya/Malaysia, but the ruling coalition tried to blunt opposition to it by co-opting elements of the latter without resolving fully the tensions between these diametrically opposed ideas.
