Malaysia 2019 Human Rights Report
MALAYSIA 2019 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Malaysia is a federal constitutional monarchy. It has a parliamentary system of government selected through regular, multiparty elections and is headed by a prime minister. The king is the head of state, serves a largely ceremonial role, and has a five-year term. Sultan Muhammad V resigned as king on January 6 after serving two years; Sultan Abdullah succeeded him that month. The kingship rotates among the sultans of the nine states with hereditary rulers. In 2018 parliamentary elections, the opposition Pakatan Harapan coalition defeated the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition, resulting in the first transfer of power between coalitions since independence in 1957. Before and during the campaign, then opposition politicians and civil society organizations alleged electoral irregularities and systemic disadvantages for opposition groups due to lack of media access and malapportioned districts favoring the then ruling coalition. The Royal Malaysian Police maintain internal security and report to the Ministry of Home Affairs. State-level Islamic religious enforcement officers have authority to enforce some criminal aspects of sharia. Civilian authorities at times did not maintain effective control over security forces. Significant human rights issues included: reports of unlawful or arbitrary killings by the government or its agents; reports of torture; arbitrary detention; harsh and life-threatening prison conditions; arbitrary or unlawful interference with privacy; reports of problems with -
1 Keynote Address by Prime Minister of Malaysia Yab Tun Dr Mahathir Bin Mohamad First-Year Anniversary of the Pakatan Harapan G
KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA YAB TUN DR MAHATHIR BIN MOHAMAD FIRST-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE PAKATAN HARAPAN GOVERNMENT ON 9TH MEI 2019 (THURSDAY) AT PUTRAJAYA INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE (PICC) Assalamualaikum and Good Afternoon. 1. I am grateful to be able to be with all of you here and delivering a speech in conjunction with the first-year anniversary of the Pakatan Harapan Government. 2. First of all, I am thankful to be granted longevity in life, thus enabling me to continue serving this country of ours. 3. Secondly, our country remains peaceful, and during this fasting month all Muslims are able to perform their religious obligations in peace and harmony. 4. I am also grateful that during the Government transition, it was not marred by riots or violence despite attempts made to undermine the election results. 5. Feeling grateful, however, does not mean that we are not aware of the heavy responsibilities that we need to shoulder. 6. Pakatan Harapan was established as a coalition of four parties. Its grand purpose - is to topple the Barisan Nasional Government led by Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. 7. The four parties with differing ideas and objectives agreed to work together because all were aware that they would not be able to defeat the BN Government if they were on their own. If they could not set aside their individual needs and join hands to save Malaysia from a kleptocratic Government, the future of this country will be at stake and the people will continue to suffer. It is likely that Malaysia will be what is known as a "failed state". -
Gandingan Muka Lama, Muka Baru Ketuai Umno Bahagian
30 APR 2001 Umno-Rangkuman GANDINGAN MUKA LAMA, MUKA BARU KETUAI UMNO BAHAGIAN KUALA LUMPUR, 30 April (Bernama) -- Persidangan perwakilan Umno bahagian yang berlangsung sepanjang bulan ini menyaksikan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad dan Timbalan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi masing-masing mengekalkan jawatan ketua bahagian Umno Kubang Pasu dan Kepala Batas. Di KEDAH, Dr Mahathir yang menerajui Umno Kubang Pasu sejak 1974, ialah antara 11 daripada 15 ketua bahagian yang mengekalkan jawatan itu, enam daripadanya tanpa bertanding. Kemenangan tanpa bertanding jawatan ketua bahagian turut menjadi milik Penasihat Agama Perdana Menteri Datuk Paduka Abdul Hamid Othman (Sik), Setiausaha Politik Tun Daim Zainuddin, Datuk Arzmi Abdul Hamid (Merbok) dan Menteri Kebudayaan, Kesenian dan Pelancongan Datuk Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir (Kulim/Bandar Baharu). Selain Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Syed Razak Syed Zain yang menang tanpa bertanding di Kuala Kedah, tiga lagi muka baru wujud setelah bekas timbalan ketua bahagian merebut jawatan ketua dengan menyingkirkan "boss" masing-masing. Mereka ialah anggota exco kerajaan negeri Datuk Zainol Mohamed Isa yang menewaskan bekas menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Raja Ariffin Raja Sulaiman di Baling; bekas anggota exco Abdul Rahman Ariffin menumpaskan Datuk Hanafi Ramli di Jerlun dan bekas anggota exco Datuk Ghazali Ibrahim menyingkirkan bekas timbalan menteri kewangan Datuk Dr Afiffuddin Omar di Padang Terap. Di bahagian Padang Terap, Jawatankuasa Pemilihan Umno Kedah memutuskan untuk menggantung aktiviti jawatankuasa baru yang dipilih, berikutan terdapat aduan mengenai kertas undi melebihi jumlah perwakilan yang diumumkan oleh pengerusi tetap semasa mesyuarat. Kes itu telah dirujuk kepada Majlis Tertinggi Umno. Pemilihan di Kedah juga menyaksikan Ketua Pemuda Umno Kulim/Bandar Baharu Azimi Daim yang juga anggota Majlis Tertinggi Umno, gagal mengisi jawatan timbalan ketua bahagian itu apabila tewas kepada penyandangnya, Abdul Halim Abdul Rahman. -
