  • RIGHTS in REVERSE: One Year Under the Perikatan Nasional Government in Malaysia MARCH 2021 RIGHTS in REVERSE
    RIGHTS IN REVERSE: One year under the Perikatan Nasional government in Malaysia MARCH 2021 RIGHTS IN REVERSE: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Malaysian people have experienced seismic upheavals in the past year. In late February 2020, the ruling Pakatan Harapan government collapsed amid surreptitious political manoeuvring. On 1 March 2020, Malaysia’s King appointed Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin as Prime Minister after determining that he commanded the support of a majority of elected MPs under the umbrella of the Perikatan Nasional coalition. The turnover in government marked a political sea change and the abrupt end to the reform agenda of the Pakatan Harapan government. The ascendence of the Perikatan Nasional government coincided with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia. The government implemented a strict Movement Control Order (MCO) that severely curtailed travel and social interactions. While the government’s efforts to stymie the spread of the virus have been successful in many respects, authorities have at times applied measures in a discriminatory manner and used the pandemic as an excuse to restrict human rights. This report examines the Perikatan Nasional government’s record on fundamental freedoms during its first year in power. Specifically, the report considers the government’s actions against its obligations to respect, protect, and fulfil the rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and association. These rights are the focus of ARTICLE 19 and CIVICUS’s work in Malaysia. Last year’s change of government has proven to be a major setback for fundamental freedoms in Malaysia. While the Pakatan Harapan government’s track record on human rights was disappointing in many ways,1 it took some steps to roll back repressive laws and policies and was much more open to engaging with civil society and the human rights community than its predecessor.

  • M101 Could Give Meda Inc a New Lease of Life | the Edge Markets
    8/9/2018 M101 could give Meda Inc a new lease of life | The Edge Markets e-Paper MY Desktop Reader CORPORATE FROM THE EDGE Select Language ▼ Edge Weekly M101 could give Meda Inc a new lease of life Liew Jia Teng / The Edge Malaysia August 08, 2018 16:00 pm +08 This article rst appeared in The Edge Malaysia Weekly, on July 30, 2018 - August 05, 2018. OVER the past few years, a number of ailing Bursa Malaysia-listed companies have been given a new lease of life by new substantial shareholders injecting their privately owned assets into these entities. Last month, M101 Group founder and CEO Datuk Seth Yap Ting Hau emerged as a 25.5% shareholder of Meda Inc Bhd, a loss-making property rm. A series of direct business transactions saw Yap acquiring a direct 9.43% stake in the company and M101 Ventures Sdn Bhd getting 16.06%. There is widespread speculation that Yap will soon be calling the shots — having most likely forked out RM35.7 million for 123 million shares based on Meda Inc’s net assets per share of 29 sen — and that he may inject M101 or its property projects into the company. The existing major shareholders of Meda Inc — Datuk Tiong Kwing Hee and the Teoh brothers, namely Datuk Dr Patrick Teoh Seng Foo, Datuk Kenneth Teoh Seng Kian and Teoh Seng Aun — are expected to sell their stakes and exit the company to allow Yap to take over. https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/m101-could-give-meda-inc-new-lease-life 1/7 8/9/2018 M101 could give Meda Inc a new lease of life | The Edge Markets If the rumours are to be believed, why did Yap choose Meda Inc as a listing vehicle for M101? To put things into perspective, Meda Inc has been in the red for four consecutive years, reporting a net loss of RM3.1 million in its nancial year ended Dec 31, 2014 (FY2014), RM55.7 million in FY2015, RM6.7 million in FY2016 and RM8.8 million in FY2017.

  • The Silence and Fantasy of Women and Work Doctor of Philosophy University of Wollongong Vicki Denese Crinis
    The Silence and Fantasy of Women and Work A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree Doctor of Philosophy from University of Wollongong by Vicki Denese Crinis History and Politics Program and CAPSTRANS Research Institute March 2004 Candidate’s Certificate I, Vicki Denese Crinis, declare that this thesis, submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy, in the Department of History and Politics, University of Wollongong, is wholly my own work unless otherwise referenced or acknowledged. The document has not been submitted for qualifications at any other academic institution. Vicki Crinis ii Abstract This thesis examines the discursive representation of working-class women and work in the development of the Malay Peninsula during the colonial and post-colonial periods. It questions the selective appearance of women’s labour in official records, and traces representations of women and work in the colonial discourses of the 1900s through to those that supported Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Bin Mohamad’s vision for a modern Malaysia in order to analyse the continuities and discontinuities in Malaysian concepts about women and work. My research reveals that in the colonial period women were engaged in many types of waged work in the Federated Malay States, but only sex workers receive more than peripheral attention in archival documents. The societal positioning of women within the family context as wives, daughters and mothers served to deny women’s status and identity as worker. However, women’s socially accepted roles did not prevent them from being represented in anthropological and fictional texts of the period as part of the orientalist discourse of the exotic ‘other’.
