LEADERS of political parties in Sabah and Sarawak have pledged not to topple the current federal government following the August 12 six-state elections.
According to UMNO supreme council member Datuk Razlan Rafii, Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg and Sabah Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor made this commitment during the Unity Government Leadership Consultative Council meeting at Menara Dato’ Onn, Kuala Lumpur World Trade Centre yesterday (July 11).
“Last night, we decided that our theme for the upcoming state elections is ‘Unity for stability and prosperity’.
“The Sarawak premier and Sabah chief minister promised there will be no change of government, regardless of the results of the elections.
“Based on the political mathematics of today, a change of government cannot happen based on the commitments made by those two leaders,” Razlan, who is currently the political secretary to UMNO president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi was reported as saying by Malaysiakini.

PETALING JAYA: A Perikatan Nasional leader has admitted that it will be difficult for the coalition to take over Penang despite PN chairman Muhyiddin Yassin’s target of winning 20 seats in the coming state election.
The leader, who wished to remain anonymous, said this was because of the majority Chinese population in Penang firmly supporting Pakatan Harapan.
“If it is the Chinese community that determines who governs (the state), it will be challenging for PN to capture Penang,” the source told FMT.
He said there was also no guarantee that PN will win the predominantly Malay populated seats in the state, adding that the coalition had its work cut out to garner support.

| The Malaysia that Mahathir left behind |

The former prime minister, Dr Mahathir Mohamad is just a spiteful old man. As Malaysia’s longest serving PM, one would have thought that in his twilight years, he would promote harmony and inclusiveness.
Instead, he acts like someone who is concerned with his own interest to the total exclusion of the interests of Malaysians.
At the end of June, he lashed out against non-Malays and claimed that they wanted to “change the name and ownership” of Malaysia, from “Tanah Melayu” to a multiracial country.
Then, in early July, Mahathir claimed that multiculturalism went against the Federal Constitution. He said that Malays and Islam faced a threat from the DAP.
Perhaps, Mahathir needs to be reminded of the nation we inherited from him.
When some Malaysians look at the Petronas Twin Towers, they praise Mahathir for his vision, but what use is this gleaming structure of steel, concrete and glass, when in its shadow, live hundreds of homeless people, and communities of foreigners?
The Malaysia of today is divided by race and religion. The wealth gap is widening. Crony capitalism is thriving. So, how did we get to this sorry state?
The people who lived through the Mahathir era, belong to two groups. The majority wax lyrical about him, and are mostly Malay. Those who despise him are mostly the non-Malays, who were treated as second-class citizens, because of his affirmative action policies.
Mahathir, an avid reader, was allegedly keen on development. His much hyped Wawasan 2020 and the plethora of skyscrapers dominating the KL skyline was evidence enough for the younger generation and the rural people, to think that he was a splendid leader, who modernised Malaysia.
The irony is that Mahathir’s Wawasan 2020 fizzled out. Malaysia became one of the most corrupt nations, Malays did not unite and the nation was torn apart by racialism, and religious extremism.
Mahathir is a man of contradictions.
During his tenure, he preached the policies of “Buy British Last” and “Look East” but unbeknown to all, he did secret deals with Margaret Thatcher of Britain and Ronald Reagan of the United States.
Thatcher built the Pergau Dam in Kelantan, in a deal which involved Malaysians buying British arms, while in a secret deal with Reagan, American soldiers used our jungles for jungle warfare training.
In his “Look East” policy, Mahathir wooed the Japanese, but neglected Malaysian Chinese, whose work discipline and business acumen had helped shape Malaya and later, Malaysia.
The Biro Tata Negara was encouraged, and to this day, the proponents of Ketuanan Melayu drive a large wedge into Malaysian society. This is not the work of a visionary.

Homework and assignments are the two tasks assigned to students to improve their learning and survey how they might interpret the topic. While they share similarities, there are particular contrasts between the two. homework alludes to the work given to students to be finished external the classroom. It reinforces the concepts taught in class and allows students to practice and apply their knowledge independently. Homework is usually assigned regularly and may involve tasks like reading, problem-solving, or writing short exercises. Its main role is to unite mastering and foster time management skills. Then again, assignments are more extensive in scope and frequently call for greater investment and exertion. assignments are generally project-based or research-situated tasks that expect students to dive further into a specific topic. Assignment help services involve extensive research, critical thinking, and creativity. Assignments typically carry more weight in terms of grading and are designed to assess a student's ability to analyze, synthesize, and present information effectively.
