  Chinese brain researchers find evolutionary clue in elderly who stay sharp
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 03:28 PM - Forum: Health News - No Replies

Chinese brain researchers find evolutionary clue in elderly who stay sharp and have higher quality of life in old age
  • More developed frontal lobes equated with maintaining superior cognitive performance, possibly a result of natural selection in human evolution
  • Community-based brain research that started in 2008 found some elderly people aged more slowly, leading to cognitive health project

A group of Chinese researchers has found that having more developed frontal lobes keeps the mind sharp in some people as they age, and is possibly a result of natural selection in human evolution.

Their study looked at how the brain structure of older adults with superior cognitive performance differed from those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

The study, which was published in the peer-reviewed Chinese journal Science Bulletin on November 11, found that people who had successful cognitive ageing (SCA) had a better preserved brain structure in the frontal region, while those with mild cognitive impairment showed structural deterioration in another part, the temporal region.

  Muhyiddin hints PN to remain as opposition, congratulates Anwar as PM
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 02:36 PM - Forum: Politics - Replies (2)

[Image: 19112022_-_Perikatan_Nasional_results_vi...IMRAN2.jpg]

KUALA LUMPUR – Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has hinted that his coalition Perikatan Nasional (PN) will remain as the opposition and is not likely to be part of the unity government led by Pakatan Harapan (PH). 

This is after he affirmed that PN will play a check and balance role in Parliament in its bid to voice the people’s concerns, in line with the principle of parliamentary democracy.

“Moving forward, PN will continue its struggle for the sake of the people’s welfare and the country’s wellbeing,” he said in brief statement today.

Muhyiddin also congratulated PH chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim over his appointment by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister.

His remarks on playing a check and balance role, however, appear out of sync with PN component PAS, which said earlier today that the party will discuss Anwar’s offer to join his unity government with other PN coalition members.

  What went wrong in Khairy Jamaluddin’s Sungai Buloh conquest
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 12:00 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

DATUK Seri Anwar Ibrahim finally gets his chance to exercise reforms in this country. Under the unity government as decreed by the King, Malaysians are rest assured the cooperation goes beyond a scheme of things for a mere political alliance.

It is a unified front against any bigotry in this beautiful nation.

In terms of popular vote, Pakatan Harapan (PH) bagged 37.5% of the 15,521,736 votes cast during the 15th General Election (GE15) with Perikatan Nasional (PN) securing the second biggest share at 30%.

Final voter turnout was 73.89% out of 21,173,638 eligible voters. In simple math, had 10 Malaysians been given a chance to decide fate of this nation, seven would have participated and the outcome would have shown support towards PH was marginal, notwithstanding any arguments of fair boundaries of an electoral constituency.

My participation in this race has been nothing short of eventful as I had campaigned for PH’s candidate Datuk Ramanan Ramakrishnan in Sungai Buloh against Barisan Nasional’s (BN) Khairy Jamaluddin.

  Prime minister in a hurry – Terence Fernandez
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 11:00 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: 20221124_-selangor-Anwar_Ibrahim_first_p...Omar_2.jpg]

IT was a journey 30 years in the making from when he was first made deputy prime minister in Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s cabinet in 1993 to being sworn in yesterday as the country’s 10th prime minister.

From imprisonment to political betrayal, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s road to becoming prime minister has been eventful, if not tumultuous.

Now that he has finally received the keys to the kingdom on what would be his third try, Anwar’s path to Putrajaya will be a tale told in books, forums, discussions, and even films for generations.

But that is just Act 1.

No one can challenge Anwar’s resilience, tenacity, and dogged determination, which has seen his hard work and sacrifices (including that of his family) pay off on November 24, 2022.

  Anwar urged to exercise fairness in forming Cabinet
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 10:27 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: Anwar-Ibrahim-bernama-24112022.jpg]

PETALING JAYA: Several academics have spoken of how important it is for Anwar Ibrahim to be seen to be fair when forming his Cabinet.

They said he would have to ensure that the Cabinet remain intact for at least a couple of years. His fairness might make this achievable, they added.

Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara highlighted the importance of exercising wisdom in the assigning of portfolios.


“Cabinet decisions are made collectively and each party in this unity government may exert different influences depending on the portfolios it holds,” he told FMT.

  GRS needs to join new govt to represent Sabah, say analysts
Posted by: superadmin - 11-25-2022, 09:22 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: pemimpin-GRS-bernama-251122-2.jpg]

PETALING JAYA: Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) should join Anwar Ibrahim’s newly formed unity government to ensure the state has representation in the Cabinet, says an analyst.

Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara said GRS’ absence in the federal government will leave a gap in Anwar’s inclusive government.

Like Sarawak, he said, Sabah requires special attention from the federal government, thus the need for GRS to be in the Cabinet.


“West Malaysia will have representatives from Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional, and Sarawak from Gabungan Parti Sarawak, so Sabah should be represented by GRS,” he told FMT.

PETALING JAYA: Neighbours Singapore and Indonesia have congratulated Anwar Ibrahim on his appointment as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister.

Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said he was looking forward to meeting his Malaysian counterpart to discuss the common issues faced by the two countries and also to strengthen their bilateral relations, Bernama reported.

Lee said Anwar’s appointment came amid significant challenges in the region as well as internationally.

“As close neighbours and friends, Singapore and Malaysia should work together to manage these challenges and explore new opportunities for cooperation,” he was quoted as saying.

Lee went on to say that the two countries were “steadfast partners” through the Covid-19 pandemic and the close coordination between its ministers allowed for borders to be re-opened and maintain the flow of essential goods and workers.

  Bersih hails Anwar’s risky vote of confidence move

PETALING JAYA: Electoral reform group Bersih has welcomed Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s move to have his majority proven in Parliament.

Bersih chairman Thomas Fann described it as an important precedent to be set by any new prime minister following the Sheraton Move of 2020, which brought the fall of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government after 22 months in Putrajaya.
