  ‘How will Sarawak’s record revenue, tallest flagpole help native poor?’
Posted by: superadmin - 02-05-2023, 09:02 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

MIRI – Many families among Sarawak’s interior tribes are still struggling to put food on the table, a native activist said, even as the state government prides itself on having earned the highest state revenue for 2022 and on its tallest flagpole project.

Harry Wing, a native of the remote Belaga district near the Bakun Dam, said politicians in Kuching are obsessed with these claims while the reality on the ground is a different picture.

“Those in rural areas don’t have enough cash to last even a few days. Our wooden huts are leaking.

“Families from the Penan and other Orang Ulu communities have no jobs and are also not receiving welfare aid from the state government.

“All these claims of having the highest this and that are not reflective of the real situation in rural Sarawak,” he told The Vibes.

Sarawak’s 2022 revenue of RM11.9 billion was its highest annual earnings ever, Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg announced recently – 17% higher than the projected revenue of RM10.2 billion initially.

Wing, however, questioned how much of the state revenue had brought real benefits to Sarawak’s poorest citizens.

  Racial slurs should be made a crime, says Noor Farida
Posted by: superadmin - 02-05-2023, 08:19 AM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - No Replies

[Image: fatinamyralee-keling-020223.jpg]

PETALING JAYA: A law to criminalise racial remarks should be introduced, says a former top civil servant, following two incidents involving remarks by a social media influencer and a national hockey player.

“I really can’t believe these kinds of things are still happening. We must introduce a law where racist remarks are considered an offence and punishable,” said Noor Farida Mohd Ariffin, a spokesperson of the G25 group of former senior civil servants.

Her comments were made in the wake of remarks linked to a concert at the National Stadium last Saturday.

The influencer is under police investigation, while hockey player Hanis Nadiah Onn has apologised for her remarks.

Farida said if a law criminalising racist remarks was introduced, victims would be able to lodge reports against the offenders.

  Soleus Push-ups - the Biggest Ever Breakthrough for Human Fitness?
Posted by: superadmin - 02-04-2023, 03:19 PM - Forum: Health News - Replies (3)


If there was a magic pill that can provide the benefits of intense exercise, but without any of the sweat, would you take it?

Neuroscientists at the University of Houston have made a potentially ground-breaking discovery for human health. In a new study they showed for the first time that a very light and focused muscle exercise, dubbed the 'soleus push-up', can dramatically boost the body's metabolism and rate of oxygen consumption.

Here we'll cover why this finding might just be one of the biggest ever breakthroughs in modern human biology.
What is the Soleus?
[Image: 1667908454699?e=1680739200&v=beta&t=s2fn...SzT_gSXsh8]
The soleus is a slim minor calf muscle that sits behind the main calf (gastrocnemius) and Achilles tendon, running from the heel to the back of the knee. The muscle is generally activated when the calf is stretched, that is, when the foot is raised above flat and pushing down. Walking or running up a steep hill (but not steps), is an example of when they come into play.

Muscles are the largest lean mass in our bodies, yet in terms of whole-body oxidative metabolism, they only burn 15% of glucose at rest. This lack of muscular metabolism when at rest is associated with the now well-established health risks of too much sitting too much. Surprising to most people, this risk is still high even for people who participate in regular exercise or do workouts, such as going to the gym or running.

  China releases report on US' long-arm jurisdiction to expose hegemony, notorious deed
Posted by: superadmin - 02-04-2023, 09:52 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: 19e116ff-2940-4944-8754-a411cc63a40e.jpeg]

The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Friday released a 2,576-word report on US long-arm jurisdiction, a typical US practice that severely harms the international political and economic order and the international rule of law. 

Experts said that revealing the truth and facts on the US' failure in governance is important as it helps the international community to get a clearer understanding of US hegemony, its exports of uncertainties, and disruptions to global order. 

Entitled The US Willful Practice of Long-arm Jurisdiction and its Perils, the report was unveiled on Friday afternoon by the ministry, and consists of three major parts - an overview of US long-arm jurisdiction, exercise and expansion of US long-arm jurisdiction, and the perils of US long-arm jurisdiction. 

The US has a longstanding practice of exerting frequent long-arm jurisdiction over other countries, including both its allies and countries with which it has hostile or strained relations, the report said. In recent years, the practice has kept expanding in scope, with US "arms" stretching longer and longer. Examining the cases of US abuse of long-arm jurisdiction, this report lays bare the severe harm it has done to the international political and economic order and the international rule of law.

  Malaysia’s political spectrum from the point of view of Non-Bumi Gen Z
Posted by: superadmin - 02-04-2023, 09:48 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: PHOTO-2023-02-03-18-25-06.jpg]

Letter to Editor

IT is difficult to speak for the entire non-Bumiputera Generation Z in Malaysia as individuals within this group may have varying opinions and perspectives on the political spectrum. Nevertheless, non-Bumis still hold around 30% of the voters in Malaysia.

This is a huge number and their needs must be met. So, what is their view on the Malaysian political spectrum like?

Many non-Bumi Malaysians may believe that the political spectrum is dominated by a small set of powerful and entrenched political parties.

They may be critical of these parties’ lack of transparency and accountability, leading to them believing that the political process does not genuinely represent the will of the people.

They may also be distrustful of conventional political parties’ promises and rhetoric, viewing them as disconnected from the interests and problems of the broader public. Since non-Bumis are the minorities in our country, their trust is built upon actions, more than words.

In terms of policy, they may support more progressive measures like social justice, human rights, and environmental preservation. They may regard these topics as vital, and they may be critical of political parties that do not take them seriously.

  YOURSAY I Show your competence, Saifuddin

IndigoSwan6963: The Home Ministry has to act (to address the issue of dress code in the police stations). If Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail can't do the job, please resign.

All police personnel must understand the Constitution. Anything that deviates from the standard of respecting each and any individual rights is not acceptable.

Whatever the differences in opinion, they must be carried with due care and respect for one another as these moral sensitivities has to do with all Malaysians, and will affect each and everyone, including law enforcers, so do it with due care.

The police force and all security forces must comprise of all races and all faiths to instil a culture of One Malaysia, instead of race or religious faith; be proactive in addressing issues and concerns; be the transformation instead of conforming to outdated policies.
