COMPANY REPORTS Sources: CIMB. COMPANY REPORTS Malaysia Daybreak | August 19, 2021 Global Economic News Global trade in goods might be close to plateauing — albeit at a record level — amid an outlook clouded by regional imbalances and coronavirus outbreaks that slow economic activity, the World Trade Organization said. The Geneva-based trade body’s goods trade barometer rose to 110.4 in Mar, the highest in records going back to 2016, according to a statement on the WTO website. It said that while the index is still above its longer-term average, the gains are decelerating, “which could presage a peaking of upward momentum in trade.” (Bloomberg) Federal Reserve officials felt their employment benchmark for decreasing support for the economy “could be reached this year,” but appeared to disagree on other key aspects of where monetary policy should turn next in the transition from the pandemic crisis, according to minutes from last month’s policy meeting. The account of the 27-28 Jul meeting showed Fed officials largely expect that later this year they will reduce the central bank’s emergency monthly purchases of US$120bn of Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities. But consensus on other key issues appeared elusive, including the start date and pace of the bond-buying “taper,” and whether the bigger risk to the recovery is posed by inflation, ongoing joblessness, or the lurking chance that a resurgent coronavirus may throw things into reverse. (Reuters) Malaysia Economic News Malaysia’s labour productivity, measured as value added per employment, for the second quarter this year has turned around to 13.6% with a value of RM22,117 per person, compared to a year ago, according to the Labour Productivity, Second Quarter 2021 report. (Bernama) The retail prices of RON97 and RON95 petrol as well as diesel will remain unchanged at RM2.74, RM2.05 and RM2.15 per litre respectively for the 19-25 Aug period. (Bernama) Political News Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah has asked the 114 Members of Parliament (MP) who have signed statutory declarations in support of Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob as the Prime Minister to be present at Istana Negara today to verify their stand. The lawmakers will meet the King in groups at the palace here from 10am until 5pm. Royal sources said the MPs would be from Perikatan Nasional, Barisan Nasional (BN), Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS), Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) from Sabah, and Independents who have backed the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) Vice-President. All the MPs submitted their statutory declarations (SDs) by the 4pm deadline yesterday to Istana Negara. The 114 votes for Ismail Sabri means that Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) President Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has failed to obtain enough support to be premier. It also means that Perikatan and Barisan have managed to obtain enough of a majority to form the next federal government and pave the way for Ismail Sabri to be the new prime minister. (The Star) 2 Malaysia Daybreak | August 19, 2021 A special meeting of the Malay Rulers will be held this Friday (20 Aug) at Istana Negara where the King is most likely to share the decision of the 220 MPs in choosing the prime minister. The lawmakers have been told to submit their statutory declaration directly to Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah by 18 Aug. Given the critical decision that His Majesty has to make, the meeting with his fellow Rulers is important, particularly if the numbers were too narrow. The meeting of the Rulers begins at 2.30pm. (The Star) Victory appears to be in sight for UMNO Vice-President Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob to take up the helm of prime minister. The Yang di-Pertuan Agong will meet 114 MPs from BN, Bersatu, PAS, GPS, as well as independents aligned to Perikatan Nasional starting 10am today - a strong indicator that Ismail has secured majority support. Only one BN lawmaker is missing from the list - Gua Musang MP Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, who had sought to become prime minister as well. The palace has ordered that whoever becomes prime minister must convene Parliament as soon as possible to confirm their majority via a vote of confidence. (Malaysiakini) If Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob succeeds in becoming prime minister, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia is expected to be rewarded with the deputy prime minister post. Bersatu Supreme Council member Eddin Syazlee Shith said that party Secretary-General Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin may be a candidate to become Ismail's deputy. Interestingly, Eddin also claimed that talks between UMNO and Bersatu discussed the possibility of creating a minister mentor post for former prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. Ismail was previously Muhyiddin's deputy prime minister - a post that has bolstered his bid to take over the top spot. (Malaysiakini) Over on the opposition side, PKR President Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim appears to have united the various parties to secure the support of 105 MPs.

  • URGENT ACTION UNION MEMBERS DEMANDING PPE CHARGED on 2 June 2020, Malaysian Police Dispersed a Peaceful Picket Against a Hospital Cleaning Services Company
    First UA: 93/20 Index: ASA 28/2644/2020 Malaysia Date: 3 July 2020 URGENT ACTION UNION MEMBERS DEMANDING PPE CHARGED On 2 June 2020, Malaysian police dispersed a peaceful picket against a hospital cleaning services company. The workers’ complaints included alleged unfair treatment of union members by the company and insufficient personal protective equipment for cleaners. Police arrested, detained and charged five activists for “unauthorised gathering”, violating their rights to freedom of association and assembly. We call on the Minister of Home Affairs to drop all charges against them. Pickets are an essential component of the right to association and no one should be prosecuted solely for a peaceful gathering. TAKE ACTION: WRITE AN APPEAL IN YOUR OWN WORDS OR USE THIS MODEL LETTER Dato’ Seri Hamzah Zainudin Minister of Home Affairs Kementerian Pertanian dan Industri Makanan, Aras 17, Wisma Tani, No.28, Persiaran Perdana, Presint 4, 62624 Putrajaya, Malaysia Email: [email protected] Dear Dato’ Seri Hamzah Zainudin, I am writing to oppose the arrest, overnight remand, and charges faced by five activists – M. Sarasvathy, L. Danaletchumy V. Santhiran, P. Jothi, and C Subramaniam Raja – who participated in a peaceful picket on 2 June 2020 outside Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital in Ipoh. Some of the activists are hospital workers. The picket denounced the alleged mistreatment of cleaners in the hospital including: inadequate supply of protective equipment for COVID-19, intimidation of workers active in the union, the cancellation of a Collective Agreement accepted by the previous sub-contractor, and the lack of annual increase in wages and paid holidays or sick leave – by a company sub-contracted for hospital cleaning services.

  • Integriti Penting Bagi Kejayaan, Survival Negara – Sultan Nazrin
    Integriti penting bagi kejayaan, survival negara – Sultan Nazrin KUALA LUMPUR 31 Okt. – Sultan Perak, Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah bertitah, integriti merupakan elemen penting dalam menentukan survival dan kejayaan sesebuah negara. Baginda menegaskan bahawa seseorang itu perlu mempertahankan apa yang betul, walaupun jika mereka perlu berbuat demikian seorang diri. “Integriti sedemikian, bagi beta, adalah apa yang kita semua perlu perjuangkan. Itu sahaja yang boleh menjadikan kita lebih kuat dan seseorang yang lebih baik,” titah baginda semasa melancarkan buku Being Abdullah Ahmad Badawi: The Authorised Biography ditulis oleh bekas Ketua Editor Kumpulan The Star, Datuk Wong Sulong, di sini hari ini. Raja Permaisuri Perak, Tuanku Zara Salim turut berkenan hadir di majlis itu selain Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi; bekas Perdana Menteri, Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi dan bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Tun Musa Hitam. Turut hadir Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Khairy Jamaluddin serta Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Nege- ri, Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan, Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin. Sultan Perak bertitah, kurang berintegriti telah mendatangkan musibah seperti pemberontakan atau apa yang dikenali sebagai Arab Spring di Asia Barat serta pergolakan yang dapat dilihat di negara tertentu yang berdekatan dengan tanah air. Punca kenapa sesebuah masyarakat atau negara itu berjaya atau gagal, menurut baginda, sentiasa berpaksikan pada satu isu - berintegriti atau kurang berintegriti. “Survival sesebuah negara dan kejayaannya, dengan itu bergantung pada integriti di semua peringkat dan paling penting di peringkat kepimpinan,” titah baginda. Sultan Nazrin mengambil perhatian bahawa ia merupakan isu yang sentiasa perlu dihadapi oleh seseorang sepertimana yang dapat dilihat menerusi apa yang berlaku di negara-negara yang jauh lebih maju dan membangun daripada Malaysia.

  • 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.
