Agong bids farewell to MPs, urges unity for nation Posted by: superadmin - 02-13-2023, 04:37 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR – The Yang di-Pertuan Agong has bid a poignant farewell to MPs while urging them to set aside political manoeuvring for the sake of the people’s welfare. His Majesty Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah also called on politicians to capitalise on Malaysia’s plural and diverse nature. “As my final advice to MPs, do not act while waiting for praise. Instead, serve wholeheartedly as a representative of the people while prioritising citizens and the country’s future. “Put aside narrow political agendas and stand together in the name of unity. The shaping of a new glorious Malaysian era should come from the bond of unity between MPs,” he said during his final speech to officiate the opening of the second session of the 15th Parliament today. Breaking from convention, the ruler was accompanied by his wife Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah, who sat by his side in the hall’s dais throughout his speech. Al-Sultan Abdullah, who was sworn-in to the post on January 31, 2019 and will end his tenure as the nation’s 16th Agong on January 30 next year, also expressed his concern over the nation’s developments being sacrificed for the sake of political expediency. - More - King calls for greater racial harmony to prevent extremism Posted by: superadmin - 02-13-2023, 02:27 PM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR: The Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah, has called for a greater push towards racial harmony in an effort to stamp out extremism. In his address at the opening of the first meeting of the second session of the 15th Parliament today, Sultan Abdullah noted that the spirit of goodwill and respect among races is the basis of the country’s stability. “Harmony, through the idea of unity based on the principles of the Federal Constitution, should be our main agenda for the sake of our beloved country,” he said. “The agenda of unity in the cultural context also needs to be focused through the implementation of programmes oriented to the unity of the country’s multiracial communities. - More -   Anwar Ibrahim must be Malaysia’s saviour – Patriot Posted by: superadmin - 02-13-2023, 11:01 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies NOVEMBER 24, 2022 will always remain etched as a historical day for all Malaysians. It saw the end of the Perikatan Nasional government. It was also the date that marked the people’s liberation from the preceding backdoor, illegitimate government with the establishment of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government led by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Lest we easily forget, Anwar struggled against all odds for almost three decades to finally be anointed as the people's choice – the 10th prime minister of Malaysia and at the age of 74. Anwar throughout the 15th general election (GE15) campaign period constantly vowed to eradicate corruption which he claimed to have reached pandemic levels. He vowed to curtail the various and systemic abuses of power especially by the political elites, and to institutionalise good governance in the public sector. These last seventy over days since his leadership at the helm, Malaysians have been witnessing exposes of massive fraud, abuses of power of various degrees and corrupt dealings of monumental propositions. - More -   'Escalation unavoidable' if Russia's call for talks on Ukraine ignored by US Posted by: superadmin - 02-13-2023, 09:19 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Before the one-year anniversary of the Russia-Ukraine conflict's outbreak, Moscow sent a message for talks based on the "existing reality" and without "preconditions," while US President Joe Biden is also scheduled to visit Poland to show Washington's unwavering support for Kiev to continue the fight.  Chinese analysts believed that hopes for peace are low, and if Moscow's call for talks is ignored, the conflict will undoubtedly escalate.  Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Vershinin said in an interview with Zvezda television that "Yes, according to the classics, any hostilities end up in talks, and, naturally, as we have said before, we will be ready for such talks, but only if those are talks with no preconditions, talks that would be based on the existing reality," TASS reported on Saturday. However, it is not Kiev, but Washington and Brussels who make the decision on talks with Moscow, Vershinin said. - More -   Freelance preacher apologises to Hindus for equating Thaipusam to “devil worship” Posted by: superadmin - 02-13-2023, 08:57 AM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - No Replies FORCED to bite the bullet following his blunt remark over the participation of Malay Muslims in the recent Thaipusam procession, freelance preacher Mohamad Wadi Annuar Ayub has issued an official apology yesterday (Feb 12). In his official apology statement, the Kedah-born preacher lamented his action for uttering the phrase “worshipping devil” which stemmed from an oversight to describe the Thaipusam celebration during a talk at the Al-Azim state mosque in Melaka on Feb 10. “With that I apologise to all Hindus in the Indian community for my statement, and I wish to clarify that I have no intention to insult or offend any disciple of other religions,” his official apology statement read. - More -   Why Africa Chose China (You Won't Believe What USA Did) Posted by: superadmin - 02-12-2023, 02:26 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies   Unity gov’t must recalibrate racial diversity in Malaysia’s civil service Posted by: superadmin - 02-12-2023, 10:55 AM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - Replies (5) THE Malaysian civil service is not only bloated in terms of the number of employed but consists of one ethnic group, predominantly the Malays. This is the reason why the Sarawak Premier Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg asked the civil service to be opened up for the non-Bumiputera in Sabah and Sarawak, especially the Chinese. Spokesperson of the G25 group, Datuk Noor Faridah Mohd Ariffin, has made a similar call asking the civil service to be opened up for the non-Bumiputera, particularly the non-Malays in the country. She lamented that not only is the promotional prospect for the non-Malays is dim, but the presence of racial discrimination also prevents them from joining the civil service. After more than 60 years of independence, the country’s civil service is predominantly composed of the Malay Bumiputera from the peninsula with minuscule participation of non-Malay Bumiputera and non-Malays, the Chinese and the Indians. - More -   Playing Race And Religious Card Again Posted by: superadmin - 02-12-2023, 10:51 AM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - Replies (1) Hadi: Unity gov’t unable to uphold Islamic values as majority of its MPs are non-Muslims PAS PRESIDENT Tan Sri Hadi Awang has claimed that the Pakatan Harapan (PH)-led coalition government faces the problem of upholding Islamic jurisprudence given the dominance of non-Muslim parliamentarian in its set-up. Based on the jurisprudence of dominance, the party that leads the government should be the party that has the most seats and represents the majority of Malaysians, according to the Marang MP. To recap, PAS won the most number of seats in the 15th General Election (GE15) with 49 while DAP came in second with 40. “By right, the unity government that was established should be led by Perikatan Nasional (PN) not PH,” Hadi justified. “This is because PN is dominated by Muslims with 74 seats belonging to PN (Bersatu contributed 25) while only two seats went to non-Muslims and non-Bumiputera.” He said this while presenting the paper Fiqh Al Nasri Wa Al Tamkin (Between Domination and Power Sharing) at the Zulkifli Muhammad Islamic University College (KUIZM) in Gombak (Selangor) yesterday (Feb 11). “This is different from PH given 51 out of its 82 seats are held by non-Muslims while Muslims only occupy 31 seats, So, how are Muslim parliamentarians going to lead the government if most of them are non-Muslims?” he asked. – Feb 12, 2023 Source: Focus Malaysia   How the Singapore Dream is inextricably linked to its HDB policies Posted by: superadmin - 02-12-2023, 10:08 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies SINGAPORE – Housing in the land-scarce island republic is a hot button issue among its citizens as prices continue to skyrocket despite government intervention. And mixed reactions were drawn in Malaysia when Local Government Development Minister Nga Kor Ming revealed that there would be a knowledge-sharing session with experts from Singapore on affordable housing management. This garnered some backlash from opposition party PAS, which alleged that Malays are being priced out of their hometowns. Singapore’s ethnic integration policy in its public housing was once labelled as “the most intrusive social policy” in the republic, but the government has repeatedly defended it as an integral part of nurturing racial harmony. National Development Minister Desmond Lee recently told a group of Malaysian journalists that the Housing and Development Board (HDB) goes beyond simple homeownership to shaping social policy, social aspirations and goals. - More -   Western Media Lies, Lies & Now the TRUTH about China Posted by: superadmin - 02-12-2023, 08:21 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Pages (1180): « Previous 1 … 524 525 526 527 528 … 1180 Next » Jump to page:
