  China industrial profit up but mired in single-digit growth
Posted by: superadmin - 03-27-2022, 07:47 PM - Forum: Business, Economy and Investment - No Replies

BEIJING (March 27): Profit growth at China's industrial firms accelerated in the first two months of the year, in line with other signs of momentum in the economy, although the outlook is clouded by domestic Covid-19 outbreaks and the war in Ukraine.

Profits rose 5.0% in from a year earlier, up from a 4.2% gain in December, the National Bureau of Statistics said on Sunday.

The growth in January-February was driven by surging profits in the energy and raw materials sectors, thanks to higher prices of commodities such as crude oil and coal. January and February data are typically combined to smooth out distortions from the Lunar New Year holiday, which can fall in either month.

  Legal experts decry call by PAS senator for Muslim-only PM law
Posted by: superadmin - 03-27-2022, 02:37 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

KUALA LUMPUR – As the majority of Malaysia’s 32 million population subscribe to the Islamic faith, the post of prime minister should only be held by a Muslim and this should be enshrined in the federal constitution, said PAS senator Khairil Nizam Khirudin.

Through postings on his social media, he has urged the government to table a constitutional amendment towards implementing this matter.

Khairil denied that this is a populist or extremist move, saying instead that it is necessary for the law to preserve the sanctity of Islam as the religion of the federation.

The PAS information chief also claimed that restricting the nation’s highest political office to a Muslim is already practised by the states of Terengganu, Kedah, Negri Sembilan, Perlis, and Pahang.

  Tian Chua not going for PKR veep post, but will run in GE15
Posted by: superadmin - 03-27-2022, 02:33 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

PETALING JAYA: PKR vice-president Tian Chua says he is not defending the post he has been holding since the formation of the party in 1999 to “cool the temperatures” in the party brought by the feverish race for positions in the elections due in May.

However, he insisted that he was not quitting politics and would be defending the post of Batu division chief.

“I was among the four vice-presidents but, as we know, three of them have left.

“I am the only incumbent left, but I am making way to avoid the party from facing a tough election in May.

“As you can see, temperatures are rising in the party as the elections are nearing. This is not good with the next general election down the corner,” he told FMT when contacted.

  YOURSAY | Race-based politics may be around for a long time

PETALING JAYA: Non-Malays have nothing to fear if they are governed by a Malay party like Pejuang because history has shown the community prospered under such rule, according to Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The former prime minister said Malay governments had always been friendly towards the Chinese migrants, while their businesses flourished in Malay-dominated administrations as their economic policies “were far more friendly and open than the British”.

  Say you’re wrong, in the right way
Posted by: superadmin - 03-27-2022, 09:49 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: ADZHAR-IBRAHIM.jpg]

Malaysia’s political, religious or social leaders often say things which offend others. They can’t help offending, as many of them are pretty offensive themselves. Political parties’ annual gatherings are some of the worst occasions for this.

As we are a multiracial country, those who are offended are often people of other races or religions.

Occasionally the offensive leaders may also offend other people whom we consider “inferior”, such as Indonesians or Bangladeshis. But those people are getting uppity and have started thinking they’re better than us!

  Desperado drama king: Penang PKR slams Najib over claims of Chinese support
Posted by: superadmin - 03-27-2022, 09:44 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: 20220326-Najib_Razak_Penang-Najib_Razak_...ok_pic.jpg]

KUALA LUMPUR – Claims of Chinese support by former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak during his visit to Penang has drawn fire from PKR, which called “Bossku” a “desperado drama king”.

State PKR communications director Amir Ghazali said Penangites are often “entertained” by allegations that Chinese voters have returned to Barisan Nasional (BN) based on election results in Melaka and Johor as well as the reception Najib got during his two-day visit.

“To me, the allegations are simplistic. The two state elections are not a voting trend for a general election.”

He added that “desperado stunts” are needed to gain public sympathy. But Penangites still remember the discrimination perpetrated when Najib was PM, just because the state is governed by a different party, he said.

“Supporters of ‘Bossku’ think that a few hundred people showing up for his (Najib) programmes in Penang is a good sign that Penangites are supporting him.

  Will Rafizi’s aura hamper BN’s resurgence among voters?
Posted by: superadmin - 03-26-2022, 07:45 PM - Forum: Politics - Replies (7)

[Image: rafizi_ramli_wikipedia_pic_11072021.jpg]

KUALA LUMPUR – Recently, former Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli revealed that a simulation exercise conducted during the Johor state election showed almost 40,000 voters who were previously sitting on the fence were shifting their support to Barisan Nasional (BN) and Perikatan Nasional (PN).

Worried about such a trend, Rafizi finally decided to return to the political stage and confirmed that he would contest for the post of PKR deputy president in the next party election.

PKR will hold elections for its leadership posts for the period 2022 to 2025, from May 13 to 18.

The re-emergence of Rafizi, a former PKR vice-president, has actually been awaited by many. From supporters of Pakatan Harapan (PH), especially PKR, to ordinary citizens, there have been expectations of him to return to the political arena.

Jamaie Hamil, a senior lecturer of political science at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, regards Rafizi’s reappearance as giving new light to PH in facing the upcoming 15th general election (GE15).
