Case Study Women in Politics: Reflections from Malaysia
International IDEA, 2002, Women in Parliament, Stockholm (http://www.idea.int). This is an English translation of Wan Azizah, “Perempuan dalam Politik: Refleksi dari Malaysia,” in International IDEA, 2002, Perempuan di Parlemen: Bukan Sekedar Jumlah, Stockholm: International IDEA, pp. 191-202. (This translation may vary slightly from the original text. If there are discrepancies in the meaning, the original Bahasa-Indonesia version is the definitive text). Case Study Women in Politics: Reflections from Malaysia Wan Azizah Women constitute half of humanity, and it follows that any decision-making, whether at the personal, family, societal or public levels, should be mindful of and involve the participation of women in the making of those decisions. Women’s political, social and economic rights are an integral and inseparable part of their human rights. Democracy is an inclusive process, and therefore in a functioning democracy, the points of view of different interest groups must be taken into account in formulating any decision. The interest and opinions of men, women and minorities must be part of that decision-making process. Yet far from being included in the decision-making process, women find themselves under-represented in political institutions. Numerous challenges confront women entering politics. Among them are lack of party support, family support and the "masculine model" of political life. Many feel that Malaysian society is still male dominated, and men are threatened by the idea of women holding senior posts. In the political sphere this is compounded by the high premium placed on political power. This makes some men even less willing to share power with women. -

The Perak Development Experience: the Way Forward

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 Impact of Malaysian Islamic Revivalism on Zakat Administration The Impact of Malaysian Islamic Revivalism on Zakat Administration Suhaili Sarif1*, Nor ‘Azzah Kamri2, Azian Madun3 1Department of Shariah and Management, Academy of Islamic Studies, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur. 2Department of Shariah and Management, Academy of Islamic Studies, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur. 3Department of Shariah and Management, Academy of Islamic Studies, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur. *Corresponding Author, Email: [email protected] Abstract The development and advancement of zakat institution in Malaysia has been through time influenced by the changing social, political and economic situation of the country. An important phenomenon which shaped the institution is Islamic revivalism. Consequently, zakat has been one of the institutions which government keened to enhance. Another factor merits to be considered is the introduction of economic policies in which the government affirmatively inclined towards Malay Muslims enabling them to compete economically with other wealthier races. Within the spirit of the policies together with the direct influence by the emerging factors resulted from the revivalism phenomenon, the government has introduced corporatization of zakat institution, a modern way of zakat management. This article aims to survey the development of zakat in Malaysia which reflects the continuous process of Islamic revivalism in the nation. As we shall see throughout the discussion, the role of zakat institution has been through time expanded to be one of the national economic tools. Keywords: zakat administration, Islamic revivalism, Malaysia A. INTRODUCTION Islamic revivalism which swept Malaysia since 1970-s is an important subject in the discussion of religious development in Malaysia. -

DAP: Inaction on Perkasa Shows Umno's True Colours Malaysiakini.Com June 20, 2011
DAP: Inaction on Perkasa shows Umno's true colours Malaysiakini.com June 20, 2011 Umno's inaction over Perkasa chief Ibrahim Ali's allegedly seditious and racist statement yesterday, has showed its true colours as a party that survives on racial division, said DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng. In a statement today, Lim (left) said Ibrahim had raised the threat of another May 13, by proclaiming himself a 'war general' and warning of severe repercussions for the Chinese community if they proceed with the Bersih march. "Never before in Malaysian history has anyone issued such an irresponsible and racist statement by calling on a certain community to stock up on food. Such a remark is clearly unacceptable by every peace-loving Malaysian," read the statement. Lim then directed his fire at Umno for its inaction on Ibrahim. "By allowing such fascistic and Nazi-like threats by Ibrahim Ali, Umno is indeed showing its true colours as a party that survives on racial division. In its refusal to take action, Umno is therefore guilty of supporting Perkasa and its stand," he said. The Penang chief minister recalled several previous incidents where Umno was seen as reluctant to take action including the cow's head protest in 2009 and various remarks by Umno leaders equating Indians to beggars and Chinese women to prostitutes. "This clearly proves that 1Malaysia is nothing more than an exercise in self-delusion and mass deception. "It is obvious that Umno, which is now politically bankrupt, is unable to raise any other issue besides race and religion, which is conveniently used to not only scare the people, but also to cover up their shortcomings," he added.
