Najib took over the post yesterday when Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil's tenure as senator ended. Political analyst Dr Ong Kian Ming told The Malay Mail that should Barisan Na­ sional (BN) retain the federal government, Najib will ap­ point someone else. "I think this is another strong sign from him that elections will be held very soon," he said. Ong said most of the interim work at the ministry could be handled by the deputy minis­ ter, Datuk Heng Seai Kie, and senior civil servants. "Although the position is usually handled by women, Najib can adapt his role in the ministry by tying some of his bigger policies which are already in the pipeline, such as BRIM and 1AZAM, to the ministry's welfare outreach programmes," he said. "He can also try to 'spin' his new position to show that he prioritises issues that have to do with women, an impor­ tant voting bloc. "Najib may have made some token appearances as minister, but there will likely not be enough time to intro­ duce major policy initiatives, like mandating that 30 per cent of board representa­ tives in listed companies be women."

Newsletter Edition 4 1 January - 30 March 2017 A Word from Our New Ambassador 30 March 2017 Assalamualaikum WBT, I officially took office as the 15th Malaysian Ambassador to the United States on 4 January 2017. Having had the privilege of serving the country as a Royal Malaysian Air Force fighter pilot, businessman and politician, it gives me great pride to now be chosen to represent Malaysia at the highest level of its diplomatic relations with the United States. I also had the opportunity to meet and learn firsthand from the experiences of my predecessors in preparation for my vocation. I wish to thank His Majesty DYMM Seri Paduka Baginda Yang Di Pertuan Agong, the YAB Prime Minister of Malaysia, for their trust; and appreciation to former Ambassador Dato Dr Awang Adek Hussin, a friend whose contributions had been instrumental in bringing the Malaysia-United States relationship to the level that is today. He leaves behind a legacy that will challenge me to do my best, judging from the wonderful things said of him from counterparts, leaders and officials alike. I am blessed to be supported by a good working team comprising of members from 12 agencies under the Malaysian Embassy in Washington DC.

    UA: 152/17 Index: ASA 28/6588/2017 Malaysia Date: 23 June 2017 URGENT ACTION HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDER CHARGED WITH OBSTRUCTION Human rights defender and lawyer Siti Kasim has been charged with “obstruction” in connection with a raid on a transgender event held in April 2016. She could face up to two years in prison or a maximum fine of RM10,000 (USD 2,331) or both, if convicted. On 3 April 2016, the Federal Territories Islamic Department (JAWI) carried out a raid on a private transgender beauty pageant. While pageants are generally prohibited for Muslim women under religious laws, the state officials specifically targeted members of the transgender community. Siti Kasim, a lawyer and human rights defender who was present at the event, questioned the legitimacy of the raid given the religious authorities conducted the raid without a warrant and were not accompanied by the police, as required under Malaysian law. On 7 April 2016, Siti Kasim was arrested and investigated for “criminal intimidation” and for allegedly “obstructing a public servant” after she demanded to know if JAWI officers had a warrant to conduct the raid. She was subsequently released. Over a year later, on 13 June 2017, she was informed that she was going to be charged at the Kuala Lumpur Magistrates’ Court for “obstructing a public servant” under the Penal Code. On 23 June 2017, Siti Kasim pleaded not guilty to the charge and was released on bail. The next court hearing is scheduled for 22 August. If convicted, she faces up to two years in prison, a maximum fine of RM10,000 (USD 2,331) or both.

On 22 May, his family was informed that he will be executed “soon” and they are to pay their last visit on 23 May 2017. Yong Kar Mun is a 48-year-old, former mineral water seller facing imminent execution by hanging in Malaysia. His family was handed a letter from the Sungai Buloh Prison authorities at 2pm on 22 May, informing them that Yong Kar Mun’s death sentence will be implemented imminently and that they should pay their last visit to him on Tuesday 23 May 2017. The authorities have not indicated the exact date of his execution. However, based on existing practice, the execution is expected to take place within a week of notifying the family. Yong Kar Mun was convicted and sentenced to the mandatory death penalty on 5 March 2009 by the Shah Alam High Court, under Section 3 of the Firearms (Increased Penalties) Act, 1971, for discharging a firearm in the commission of an armed robbery. While a man involved in the robbery was subsequently killed in a police chase, there were no casualties resulting directly from the offence. The Court of Appeal in Putrajaya dismissed his appeal on 6 October 2011, while the Federal Court dismissed his final appeal, affirmed the decision of the Court of Appeal and handed out the final sentence on 2 August 2012.
