  • UMNO Factionalism and the Politics of Malaysian National Identity
    UMNO Factionalism and The Politics Of Malaysian National Identity JAE HYON LEE This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University 2005 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. .................................. Abstract This thesis analyses UMNO factionalism from the perspective of the elite’s manipulation of the various modes of nationalisms. This thesis argues that UMNO factionalism, which is seemingly a power struggle between competing UMNO elites, has been significantly shaped by contesting nationalist ideologies that reflect the unresolved questions of national identity in Malaysia. These two issues, that is, nationalism and UMNO factionalism, have shaped Malaysian politics in significant ways. UMNO factionalism has been related to such major political events as the 1969 ethnic riots, the introduction of the New Economic Policy, the UMNO split in 1987 and the Reformasi (Reform) movement in 1998. Frequently, the impact of these disputes extended beyond UMNO politics and affected wider Malaysian politics. At the same time, due to unresolved questions of national identity, nationalism has occupied a central position in Malaysian political discourse. There are ambiguities regarding the relationships among the various ethnic identities and national identity and between the individual and the larger Malaysian community that enable elites to construct and manipulate nationalist ideologies. In this thesis, the conflicting nationalisms are captured by five different concepts of nationalism – ethnocultural, civic and multicultural nationalisms in one group and collectivist-authoritarian and individualistic-libertarian nationalisms in another.

In this paper, the authors have employed a cross-comparative study of the heavy metal music subcultures in Singapore and Malaysia to understand the differences in the issues that generate such panics based on the socio- political context of each country and its current concerns. Although the youth involved in both cases are marginalised male Malays, the framing of their alleged deviance and criminality permits, in the case of Singapore, only a limited possibility for moral panic creation given the conservative socio-political governance that limits allegations such as ‘Satanism’.

  • 2002 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 31, 2003
    Malaysia Page 1 of 27 Malaysia Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2002 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 31, 2003 Malaysia is a federation of 13 states and 3 federal territories with a parliamentary system of government based on periodic multiparty elections in which the ruling National Front coalition has held power for more than 40 years. Opposition parties actively contest elections, but face significant obstacles in competing with the long-entrenched ruling coalition. However, in the November 1999 elections, opposition parties won approximately 25 percent of the seats in the Federal Parliament, and an opposition party also retained control of one state government and gained control of another. The Constitution provides for an independent judiciary; however, government action, constitutional amendments, legislation, and other factors undermined judicial independence and strengthened executive influence over the judiciary. The Royal Malaysian Police have primary responsibility for internal security matters. The police report to and are under the effective control of the Home Minister. Some members of the police committed human rights abuses. The country has a free market economy and a population of approximately 23.8 million. The economy grew 8.3 percent in 2000, but slowed in 2001 to a growth rate of 0.4 percent growth. Analysts expected the economy to grow from 3.5 percent to 4 percent by year's end. The Government continued its stimulative fiscal and monetary policies, and took an active role in the development of the export-oriented economy. Services and manufacturing accounted for 49.6 percent and 31.5 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP).

  • Siti Zaharah Dilantik Menteri Di Jabatan Perdana Menteri
    09 JAN 1999 Mahathir-Zaharah SITI ZAHARAH DILANTIK MENTERI DI JABATAN PERDANA MENTERI KUALA LUMPUR, 9 Jan (Bernama) -- Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad hari ini mengumumkan pelantikan Ketua Pergerakan Wanita UMNO Datuk Dr Siti Zaharah Sulaiman sebagai Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri (JPM). Bercakap kepada pemberita selepas melawat Jabatan Imigresen di sini pagi ini, Dr Mahathir berkata : "Saya hendak buat satu correction (pembetulan). Semalam saya buat announcement (pengumuman) tak kena (tak betul) iaitu berkenaan dengan Datuk Dr Siti Zaharah. Sebenarnya jawatannya ialah sebagai Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri dan bukannya Timbalan Menteri." Pengumuman rombakan kabinet dibuat semalam oleh Dr Mahathir selepas mesyuarat Majlis Tertinggi UMNO yang turut menyaksikan pelantikan Menteri Luar Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi sebagai Timbalan Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Dalam Negeri. Antara yang diumumkan oleh belioau ialah pelantikan Timbalan Menteri Dalam Negeri, Datuk Mohd Tajol Rosli Ghazali sebagai Menteri di JPM. Menteri lain di JPM sekarang ialah Datuk Dr Abdul Hamid Othman dan Senator Datuk Chong Kah Kiat. Dr Siti Zaharah, 49, kini adalah Timbalan Menteri Kesihatan, jawatan yang dipegangnya sejak 1995. Pada pemilihan UMNO pada 1996, beliau mencipta kejutan dengan dipilih menjadi Ketua Pergerakan UMNO pada 1996 setelah menewaskan penyandang Datuk Seri Rafidah Aziz. Anak kelahiran Lanchang di Mentakab, Pahang ini mendapat pendidikan awal di Sekolah Sultan Abu Bakar, Kuantan dan kemudiannya melanjutkan pelajaran di Institut Teknologi Mara. Beliau melanjutkan pelajaran di peringkat sarjana muda di University of New York dan mendapat Ph.D dalam bidang pendidikan dari Cornell University, Amerika Syarikat. Siti Zaharah pernah menjadi pengarah perancang di Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka sebelum menjawat Timbalan Menteri di JPM pada 1986.
