  • Konsep Pendinding Dalam Akidah Islam: Kajian Kes Terhadap Usahawan Melayu Kelantan
    KONSEP PENDINDING DALAM AKIDAH ISLAM: KAJIAN KES TERHADAP USAHAWAN MELAYU KELANTAN (Shielding against Black Magic in the Islamic Faith: A Case Study on Kelantanese Entrepreneurs) Mohd Nizam Sahad [email protected] Nurul Suhaida Ibrahim [email protected] Bahagian Pengajian Islam, Pusat Pengajian Ilmu Kemanusiaan, Universiti Sains Malaysia Abstrak Makalah ini meneliti konsep pendinding dan amalannya dalam kalangan usahawan Melayu Kelantan bagi menghindari gejala sihir yang digunakan oleh pesaing dalam perniagaan. Pendinding yang diamalkan hendaklah memohon perlindungan daripada Allah SWT dan selaras dengan kehendak dan syariat Islam. Kajian dijalankan terhadap sejumlah usahawan Melayu Kelantan kerana orang Melayu Kelantan, khususnya wanita, banyak yang terlibat dalam dunia perniagaan. Kajian dilaksanakan menggunakan dua kaedah, iaitu kajian kepustakaan dan kajian lapangan. Kaedah kajian kepustakaan digunakan untuk membina kerangka konsep yang berkaitan dengan pendinding dalam akidah Islam, manakala kajian lapangan dilakukan dalam bentuk temu bual dengan usahawan Melayu Kelantan yang terpilih. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa segelintir usahawan Melayu Kelantan masih lagi tidak mengamalkan konsep pendinding yang sebenar menurut perspektif akidah Islam kerana terlibat dengan kepercayaan yang mengandungi unsur syirik dan khurafat. Kata kunci: pendinding, usahawan Melayu Kelantan, akidah Islam, perniagaan 223 MELAYU: JURNAL ANTARABANGSA DUNIA MELAYU JILID 9 BIL. 2 2016 Abstract This article takes a close look at the concept of shields and its practice among Malay business people to ward off any black magic that may be used against them by business rivals. Such shields should be sought through the help of Allah SWT and should be in line with the demands and rules of Islam. The research involved a number of Malay entrepreneurs from the state of Kelantan because the Malays of Kelantan, especially the women, are, to a great extent, involved in business.

  • 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.

  • Countries at the Crossroads 2012: Malaysia
    COUNTRIES AT THE CROSSROADS Countries at the Crossroads 2012: Malaysia Introduction Malaysia has over 28 million people, of whom approximately 63 percent are ethnic Malay, 25 percent Chinese, 7 percent Indian, and 4 percent Ibans and Kadazan-Dusun.1 Much of this diversity was created through the British formation of an extractive colonial economy, with the “indigenous” Malay community ordered into small holdings and rice cultivation, while the “non-Malays” were recruited from China and India into tin mining and plantation agriculture. Further, in preparing the territory for independence in 1957, the British fashioned a polity that was formally democratic, but would soon be encrusted by authoritarian controls. Throughout the 1960s, greater urbanization brought many Malays to the cities, where they encountered the comparative prosperity of the non-Malays. They perceived the multiethnic coalition that ruled the country, anchored by the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), but including the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) and the Malayan Indian Congress (MIC), as doing little to enhance their living standards. At the same time, many non-Malays grew alienated by the discrimination they faced in accessing public sector resources. Thus, as voters in both communities swung to opposition parties in an election held in May 1969, the UMNO-led coalition, known as the Alliance, was gravely weakened. Shortly afterward, Malays and Chinese clashed in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, sparking ethnic rioting known as the May 13th incident. Two years of emergency rule followed during which parliament was closed. As the price for reopening parliament in 1971, UMNO imposed new curbs on civil liberties, thereby banning any questioning of the Malay “special rights” that are enshrined in constitution’s Article 153.

  • Wan Azizah: I Am Not out to Deceive Kajang Voters Free Malaysia Today 21 March 2014 Oleh K Pragalath
    Wan Azizah: I am not out to deceive Kajang voters Free Malaysia Today 21 March 2014 Oleh K Pragalath KAJANG: PKR’s candidate for the Kajang by-election, Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail chastised Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin for accusing her of trying to deceive Kajang voters with her pretense as a person who prays. “Are you saying that I cannot even offer prayers? What am I going to con from the people here?” Azizah who is also PKR president asked during a ceramah session held last night in Taman Sentosa Villa near here. Two days ago Muhyiddin had told Kajang voters that they should not be deceived by pictures of Azizah praying as depicted on PKR election campaign billboards. The billboards show Azizah in prayer and the words ‘Justice for Anwar Ibrahim’. To discredit her, Azizah’s political opponents have also started a smear campaign describing her as a grandmother who would do best tending her grandchildren. “It is alright if they call me a grandmother. I am proud to be a grandmother. I am blessed with six children and six grandchildren,” she said. She also said that it was vital for her to fight against tyranny during her lifetime. “As long as I am alive, I will stand up and fight tyranny. Otherwise we will have to bow down. I am not willing to be suppressed,” she said. Azizah will face off MCA vice president Chew Mei Fun from BN this Sunday. The Kajang state seat fell vacant following the resignation of incumbent assemblymen Lee Chin Cheh of PKR on Jan 27.

  • The Dust Has Settled, RTM Vindicated
    Headline The dust has settled, RTM vindicated Language English Media Title New Straits Times Section/Page No Nation Date 23rd February 2019 Journalist Bernama Source https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2019/02/4 Remarks Broadcasting, Broadcasting Regulation 62929/dust-has-settled-rtm-vindicated The dust has settled, RTM vindicated By Bernama - February 23, 2019 KUALA LUMPUR: The dust has now settled with Communications and Multimedia Minister Gobind Singh Deo clearing RTM of any fault after the broadcaster was taken to task for failing to broadcast live the delivery of speeches of certain leaders at the national-level Chinese New Year open house in Seremban on Sunday. The episode began unravelling after Transport Minister Anthony Loke’s press secretary Lim Swee Kuan ranted on Facebook asking whether RTM was sabotaging the government and remarked that “heads must roll in RTM”. Lim also said that an official letter would be sent to Communications and Multimedia Minister Gobind Singh Deo on the matter. This came after RTM did not broadcast live the speeches by Loke and Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun at the event, except for Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s speech. Also present at the event was Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail. Gobind took up the matter immediately and requested RTM to submit a report and list down its Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in handling requests for the station to cover an event. On Thursday, after gleaning through the report, Gobind cleared RTM of any fault after finding that the broadcaster had adhered to the SOP by broadcasting only the delivery of speeches by the prime minister in any event also attended by ministers and menteris besar.

  • Court to Decide Today on Bid to Recall SAC Musa (NST 22/10/1999)
    22/10/1999 Court to decide today on bid to recall SAC Musa KUALA LUMPUR, Thurs. - The High Court will decide tomorrow whether to allow the defence in Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's sodomy trial to recall the investigating officer. Judge Datuk Arifin Jaka deferred decision today after hearing submissions by counsel for the respective parties. Arifin will also make a ruling whether the officer, SAC1 Musa Hassan, should be recalled before or after Anwar and co-accused Sukma Darmawan Sasmitaat Madja testify, since the defence had started its case when it delivered its opening statements today before calling witnesses. Anwar and Sukma, who is his adopted brother, are charged with sodomising former driver Azizan Abu Bakar in 1993. Sukma, a businessman, is also facing a second charge of abetting Anwar to sodomise Azizan who is the former driver of Anwar's wife Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail. The High Court had on Monday ordered them to enter their defence. In applying to recall Musa, Karpal Singh said the defence wished to enlist his assistance to verify Anwar's alibi. Counsel said Anwar's defence of alibi depended very much on the verification, otherwise he would be unable to put up an effective defence. "It is in the best interest of all concerned if the alibi was verified for fear of a mistrial," Karpal Singh said when Arifin asked what clarification he was seeking from Musa. Karpal Singh said he suspected that what was being done in the case was not in accordance with the law. "Let's correct it at this stage and save the court from being embarrassed in the Court of Appeal later on," he said, pointing that the "error" could still be corrected at this stage.

  • Malaysiakini.Com Sept 25, 2014 YOURSAY
    If no interference, why reject seeing Azizah? MalaysiaKini.com Sept 25, 2014 YOURSAY ‘Why no response to request for an audience - not once, but three times?’ Sultan never interfered, says palace Kim Quek: The justification given by Selangor sultan’s private secretary Mohamad Munir Bani for the palace to appoint Azmin Ali, while rejecting Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail doesn’t hold water. First, Munir has stated Pakatan Rakyat’s inability to agree on a nominee as the reason for appointing Azmin. But then, isn’t Azmin even less qualified, as he was nominated by none? At least, Azizah was nominated by PKR and DAP. Second, Azizah has proven support of 30 Aduns (state assemblypersons), out of a total of 56. Doesn’t that kind of majority support make her the only qualified nominee, keeping in mind that Azmin not only had none, but had actually signed a sworn statement supporting Azizah’s nomination? Third, Munir Bani said Azmin was appointed because he was the deputy president of PKR, but isn’t Azizah even more qualified as the president of the party? Fourth, if there was no hidden hands of politics, why had the palace persisted in keeping a distance from her despite her proven majority by not responding to her request for an audience - not once, but three times? Mushiro: Munir has avoided the key questions. What has DAP and PKR not submitting more than two names got to do with complicating the issue? Why didn't the palace discuss with the chief of Pakatan, Anwar Ibrahim, as the coalition has the majority in the House? Why was there an unnecessary long delay to select and announce the MB? Why wasn't the Selangor constitution followed? Ferdtan: Munir Bani denied that the sultan was "interfering" in administrating the affairs of the state.

    MCA, respect is earned through character MalaysiaKini.com March 19, 2012 VOXPOP 'Ask your party leader to respect women first. BN leaders have made many sexists remarks on women. Where were you then?' MCA pecks at Pakatan for disrespecting women vox populi small thumbnailFade2grey: Pakatan Rakyat disrespecting women? Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail is the highest leader in PKR, while Nurul Izzah Anwar is among the top party leaders. The late Dr Lo'Lo' Ghazali was an important member in PAS Kuala Lumpur and exco Elizabeth Wong is doing great work in Selangor. DAP state representative Hannah Yeoh is well-respected, along with her Batu Gajah colleague, MP Fong Poh Kuan. Meanwhile, Seputeh MP Teresa Kok is a powerhouse parliamentarian and a senior Selangor cabinet member. Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh is at the forefront of activism. For that, Fong Poh Kuan had sexist jokes made of her in Parliament and Bersih chairperson S Ambiga had been called a prostitute. So where lies the disrespect? Boiling Mud: Who are you, MCA leaders, accusing Pakatan of being disrespectful of women? Have you forgotten one of your ministers suggested to her fellow Malaysian women to don sexy dresses to keep their husband from straying? If this is not an insult to the Malaysian women, I don't know what is. A woman in marriage is an equal partnership with the husband. She isn't a whore to dress skimpily to keep her husband happy. Get that right. So go chastise your woman minister first before you peck at others. Cocomomo: Ask your party leader Dr Chua Soi Lek to respect women first.
