Dr Mahathir tidak dijemput ke Persidangan Kebangsaan DAP Free Malaysia Today Nov 25, 2016 Tarrence Tan Loke berkata, berdasarkan tradisi DAP, hanya parti komponen Pakatan Harapan yang dijemput menghadiri persidangan kebangsaan itu. KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad tidak dipelawa ke Persidangan Kebangsaan DAP minggu depan kerana Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM) bukan parti komponen Pakatan Harapan, kata setiausaha organisasinya, Anthony Loke Siew Fook. “PPBM belum membentuk pakatan rasmi dengan Harapan. Ia adalah tradisi kami hanya mempelawa parti komponen pakatan kami ke persidangan kebangsaan.” Persidangan kebangsaan DAP dijadualkan berlangsung di Pusat Konvensyen Ideal di Shah Alam pada 4 Disember ini. Loke berkata, antara pemimpin Pakatan Harapan yang dijemput ialah Presiden PKR, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail dan timbalannya, Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali; Presiden Amanah, Mohamad Sabu serta timbalannya, Salahuddin Ayub. “Kami sudah menjemput veteran parti kami dan turut menjemput pucuk pimpinan 2 parti komponen dalam PH, iaitu PKR dan Amanah.” Beliau berkata, hanya 2 pemimpin DAP akan menyampaikan ucapan di persidangan itu, iaitu pemangku Pengerusi DAP, Tan Kok Wai dan Setiausaha Agung, Lim Guan Eng. “Tiada ucapan daripada pemimpin parti lain. Hanya 2 pemimpin DAP akan berucap pada persidangan itu dan akan ada perbahasan di kalangan perwakilan kami.” Katanya, seramai 2,732 perwakilan dari seluruh negara dijangka menghadiri persidangan kebangsaan itu yang bakal meraikan ulang tahun ke-50 parti itu. “Parti dijangka menerima pakai pengisytiharan ‘DAP pada 50’, di mana ia akan memperbaharui asas perjuangan parti untuk 50 tahun akan datang.” Copyright (C) 2009-2016 MToday News Sdn.

Keynote Address by Yb Dato' Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali
KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY YB DATO’ SERI MOHAMED AZMIN ALI SENIOR MINISTER MINISTER OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INDUSTRY ON MALAYSIA AND TRADE REFORMS IN UNCERTAIN TIMES IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE 27TH PACIFIC ECONOMIC COOPERATION COUNCIL (PECC) GENERAL MEETING AND PUBLIC FORUM 15 DECEMBER 2020 (TUESDAY) KUALA LUMPUR [Recording session on 10 December 2020 (Thursday), 4.00 pm at YBMK’s office] Distinguished guests, Ladies and gentlemen. Good morning, good afternoon and good evening to all participants. 1. First and foremost, I would like to congratulate the Malaysia National Committee for Pacific Economic Cooperation (MANCPEC), as well as the Institute of Strategic and International Studies (ISIS) Malaysia for hosting today’s PECC Standing Committee Meeting and Public Forum. 2. On behalf of Malaysia, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to the distinguished members of the PECC, honoured speakers, youth delegates and participants from all over the world. I thank you all for joining us today. 3. With COVID-19 still hovering over us with its menacing presence, and gnawing at our sides, there is no gainsaying that this forum acquires added significance as well as urgency. Since the WHO first declared it as a pandemic in March 2020, innumerable stakeholder engagements have been convened, underscoring the severity and gravity of the impact of the pandemic across all strata of society. 2 4. In our efforts to combat this crisis and to flatten the curve, a tsunami of unintended economic consequences was unleashed setting forth a massive global economic downturn. For the APEC region, economic growth is now expected to decline by 2.5 per cent for 2020, bringing total output losses to a staggering USD1.8 trillion.

Another PAS Leader Quits Penang Gov't Malaysiakini.Com Jun 11, 2015 by Low Chia Ming
Another PAS leader quits Penang gov't MalaysiaKini.com Jun 11, 2015 By Low Chia Ming Another PAS leader has quit his government related posts in Penang, following in the footsteps of the party's ousted progressive leaders, Mohamad Sabu and Mujahid Yusof Rawa. Penang PAS information chief Rosidi Hussain resigned as a director of Penang Youth Development Corporation. This was announced by Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng in a statement today. When contacted, Rosidi said he was resigning to focus on his law firm as a practising lawyer. Rosidi did not want to elaborate further if his resignation had anything to do with PAS under its new conservative hardline leadership passing a resolution to sever ties with DAP. However, he admitted that it was difficult to carry out his duties in the Penang government what with the ongoing spat between PAS and DAP. "But I appreciate the working experience with the chief minister and the state government. "It's just the environment is no longer conducive for me to serve the people as many things are happening," he said. He lamented that the tense relationship between DAP and PAS was a foregone conclusion after they fell into Umno's trap to break up Pakatan Rakyat. Lim (photo) also confirmed receiving Mohamad's resignation as a director of PBA Holdings Berhad. He praised the leaders for their principled stance which he said was in contrast to other PAS representatives who were still clinging on to their government positions even though the party had severed ties with DAP. "Fortunately there are still honourable PAS leaders who have resigned despite the refusal of the PAS new leadership to follow up on their killing Pakatan.

Amanah: Anwar’s ‘wise decision’ reflects need to remove distractions Malaysia Today June 18, 2017 By Vanesha Shurentheran Salahuddin Ayub says he shares Anwar’s concern that PPBM’s proposition to occupy top two posts in Pakatan Harapan was worrying. PETALING JAYA: Amanah has lauded Anwar Ibrahim’s move not to offer himself as Pakatan Harapan’s (PH) prime ministerial candidate for the 14th general election (GE14), saying it showed the PKR de facto leader’s determination to remove distractions coming in the path of defeating the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN). Its deputy president Salahuddin Ayub said it was a wise decision as the opposition coalition needs to move forward instead of being weighed down by issues over who should be the prime minister if it wins the election due by the middle of next year. He said Anwar knows what is best for PH in any situation, including the recent scenario where PPBM apparently wanted to lead the coalition. “He has shed light on this for us, for PH to move forward and to forget about who will be the next prime minister,” Salahuddin told FMT. He said it is time for PH component parties to show their strength in unity and convince the people of their cooperation and capabilities. He also said he concurred with Anwar’s concern that PPBM’s proposition was worrying. Salahuddin said it was time for differences in the coalition to be set aside for the sake of the people. “We need to put aside all our differences and advance forward. The people want to know what we can offer to solve their problems,” he said.

THE POLITICISATION of ISLAM in MALAYSIA and ITS OPPONENTS Alexander Wain*
THE POLITICISATION OF ISLAM IN MALAYSIA AND ITS OPPONENTS Alexander Wain* Abstract: This article profiles four prominent detractors of Islam’s politicisation in contemporary Malaysia. While much ink has been spilt profiling the promulgators of politicised Islam, whether in Malaysia or elsewhere, comparatively little has been written about those who oppose it. This article is a modest attempt to rectify that deficiency. It begins, however, with a brief history of that politicisation process as it has occurred in Malaysia, with particular reference to Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS) and Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (ABIM). This brief overview traces Malaysia’s unique form of politicised Islam to late twentieth-century intercommunal tensions driven by Malay poverty and cultural anxiety. These enabled long-standing ethno-religious associations to facilitate a blending of Islamist ideology with issues surrounding Malay rights. It is within this context that we then examine the social and educational backgrounds, principal publications, records of activism, and ideological positions of four prominent critics of Malaysian Islam’s politicisation, namely: Chandra Muzaffar, Zainah Anwar, Marina Mahathir, and Siti Kasim. The article concludes that all four figures differ from their counterparts in PAS and ABIM by possessing Western-orientated backgrounds, a long-standing dedication to multiculturalism, and a desire to orientate their work around human rights- based issues. The article concludes by suggesting how (or if) these detractors can impact the future direction of Malaysian politics. Keywords: Islam, Malaysian politics, PAS, ABIM, Chandra Muzaffar, Zainah Anwar, Marina Mahathir, Siti Kasim Introduction This article presents short contextualised biographies of four prominent opponents of Islam’s politicisation in contemporary Malaysia.

DAP's Position on Hudud Differs from That of MCA Malaysiakini.Com Sept 4, 2012 by Hafiz Yatim and Lee Way Loon
DAP's position on hudud differs from that of MCA MalaysiaKini.com Sept 4, 2012 By Hafiz Yatim and Lee Way Loon While PAS and DAP’s views on hudud differ, the DAP said its views on this Islamic law are unlike the views held by the MCA, said Rasah MP Anthony Loke, who is also the DAP Socialist Youth chief. Loke said while DAP does not agree on hudud, our position is not like that of the MCA which is trying to portray a very bad picture on Islam and hudud - and which is out to frighten the Chinese. “If we are not involved in crime, why should we worry over its implementation or punishment? What MCA is doing is demonising Islam, painting Islam with an extremist kind of image with regard to hudud, to which we do not agree,” he said. “I think it is clear hudud will not be imposed on non-Muslims which the MCA has always been harping on. We respect Islam as the official religion of the federation but other races can also practice their beliefs,” he said. Loke said what we are saying is that we do not try to paint a bad picture of Islam, and that is what MCA is doing right now. Loke said it could be the MCA agenda of trying to put words into our mouth in trying to say we are trying to help PAS implement hudud. This, he said, is not true as our position is clear - we are not able to implement hudud because it is not in line with the constitution.

Workplace Clusters Record Highest Covid-19 Cases, Says Minister
Workplace clusters record highest Covid-19 cases, says Minister KUALA LUMPUR, July 27 — Covid-19 clusters involving the workplace which stood at 735 clusters, have recorded the highest number of cases at 60,000 cases from June 1 to July 23, said National Recovery Plan (NRP) Coordinating Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz. The finance minister said of the total clusters, 373 or 50.7 per cent involved the manufacturing sub-category with 35,642 cases reported. “This is higher than the number of clusters in other categories throughout the same period,” he said in reply to questions raised regarding the NRP in Dewan Rakyat here yesterday. Tengku Zafrul said cluster categories were used to identify locations or localities so that targeted actions to control and prevent the spread of Covid-19 infection could be implemented effectively by the Health Ministry (MOH) in collaboration with the relevant authorities. Shah Alam MP Khalid Abd Samad raised questions regarding International Trade and Industry Ministry’s action that allowed factories to open without control, which he claimed had led to the rise in Covid-19 cases in the country. Its Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali responded to the allegations saying the decision to allow factories to operate was made collectively in the National Security Council (NSC) meeting, adding that the ministry’s role was only to coordinate so that authorised parties could operate in compliance with the standard operating procedures (SOPs) set. Mohamed Azmin also showed a placard of data from the National Crisis Preparedness and Response Centre (CPRC) and the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) that indicated only 8.8 per cent of new Covid-19 cases were recorded in the manufacturing sector out of 408,134 cases nationwide between June 1 and July 23.
