  • URUGUAY INVITES PROTON to SET up PLANT (Bernama 03/07
    03 JUL 1996 Uruguay-Proton URUGUAY INVITES PROTON TO SET UP PLANT KUALA LUMPUR, July 3 (Bernama) -- Uruguay has invited Malaysia to set up plants there for assembling or manufacturing cars for export to countries in the region. Foreign Ministry Deputy Secretary-General Datuk Abdul Halim Ali said today that since Uruguay did not have its own automobile industry, it felt that Perusahaan Otomobil Nasional (Proton) could use it as a base to export to Brazil and Argentina. As a member of the Mercosur economic cooperation, which also includes Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay, Uruguay has the trade facilities and export quota in several areas like automobile industry to move into these countries. "This is certainly a very attractive offer and it will be conveyed to Proton," Abdul Halim told reporters after a meeting between Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Uruguayan President Dr Julio Maria Sanguinetti at the Prime Minister's Department here. This is among several fields that have been identified for Malaysian investors to venture into in Uruguay, apart from infrastructure development like building of roads, bridges, ports and tourism facilities. Sanguinetti arrived yesterday for a five-day visit at the invitation of Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Ja'afar to strengthen bilateral ties in line with South-South cooperation. Halim said Dr Mahathir and Sanguinetti also exchanged views on developments in their respective regions. While Uruguay said it could be a gateway into the Mercosur market for Malaysian goods, Malaysia made known its potential as a base for Uruguay's products to penetrate the Asean countries.

  • Media Release for Immediate Release
    Media Release For immediate release REDISCOVER THE PIONEERING SPIRIT AND PERSONAL LIVES OF PERANAKANS Singapore, 19 May 2015 – They have been well recognized for their culture, fashion, and food. Few may know, however, that Peranakans contributed significantly to the development of Singapore, since well before independence. The latest exhibition by the Peranakan Museum, Great Peranakans: Fifty Remarkable Lives, explores this aspect of the community, casting a spotlight on 50 individuals who made their mark on Singapore with their pioneering spirit in areas ranging from art and education, to business and public service. The exhibition is presented across three historical periods – Pioneering a Settlement (1819– 1889), Growing a Settlement to a City (1890–1945), and Growing a Nation (1946–1965). During the colonial period, cultural adaptability and fluency in English, Chinese dialects, and Malay enabled Peranakans to move easily in both the world of the Chinese community in the regions, 39 Armenian Street Singapore 179941 Tel +65 6332 7591 Fax +65 6883 0732 www.peranakanmuseum.sg as well as in the British colonial system. They had close ties to the British, who looked to Peranakan leaders to facilitate commerce and ensure stability in Singapore. But the exhibition also highlights how they were strong advocates for the rights of the Chinese community, championing issues such as education for women, elimination of opium and gambling, and Chinese-language newspapers that reinforced values and gave the people a voice. Dr Alan Chong, director of the Asian Civilisations Museum and Peranakan Museum, explains: “Over the centuries, Peranakans have played major roles as community leaders, philanthropists, and statesmen.

  • Sulaiman Daud Leaves It to Dr Mahathir to Decide His Candidacy
    11 OCT 1999 Sulaiman-Election SULAIMAN DAUD LEAVES IT TO DR MAHATHIR TO DECIDE HIS CANDIDACY KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 11 (Bernama) -- Agriculture Minister Datuk Amar Dr Sulaiman Daud is leaving it to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad to decide on whether he should be fielded in the coming general election. Dr Sulaiman, who is the vice president of Parti Pesaka Bumiputra Bersatu (PBB), said that he would not offer his personal views on the issue of the nomination of candidates in the general election as it was the prerogative of Dr Mahathir, who is the Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman. "I don't understand why the media is so interested in such matters," he told reporters after opening a forum on "Water Quality Management" and the Seventh Malaysian National Committee on Irrigation and Drainage (Mancid) conference, here, today. Dr Sulaiman, who is Member of Parliament for Petra Jaya, however pledged to continue to serve the people if fielded in the general election. He was commenting on a Bernama report on Oct 5 quoting PBB sources as saying that Dr Sulaiman would be among several incumbents to be dropped from the list of candidates for the general election. Dr Sulaiman is said to be dropped because he has served for a long time and that Petra Jaya, an urban constituency, requires a younger candidate. According to the sources, among others to be dropped are Defence Minister Datuk Abang Abu Bakar Mustapha, who is MP for Kuala Rajang, Bukit Mas MP Michael Lisa Kaya, Kapit MP James Jimbun Pungga and Santubong MP Rohani Karim.

Edited by NORMA MANSOR HALIMAH AWANG TEY NAI PENG YAP SU FEI Published by SOCIAL SECURITY RESEARCH CENTRE (SSRC) Faculty of Economics and Administration University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur Published by Social Security Research Centre (SSRC) © SSRC 2018. All rights reserved First published in March 2018 Printed in Malaysia SOCIAL SECURITY RESEARCH CENTRE (SSRC) Faculty of Economics and Administration University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur PREFACE Who Says I’m Retired Most people regard retirement as a time to let go, relax and take things easy. But there are retirees who continue to work on the same job, take up a new job or venture into business. With increasing life expectancy, more years will be spent in retirement and there is a need to accumulate sufficient savings for retirement. Most retirees do not have adequate savings or defined-benefit pensions. Hence, older people have to continue working to meet the escalating cost of living and health care. Among retirees who have adequate savings or defined-benefit pension, there are those who are participating more actively than ever before in civil society activities or picking up new skills. For these people, the word “retirement” is not in their vocabulary. What motivates the older people to continue with their active engagement in work and society? Active engagement promotes emotional wellbeing and physical health, as well as social integration and support.
