PN bigwigs at Publika HQ to discuss fight for survival Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 10:27 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR – Perikatan Nasional leaders are converging at its headquarters in Publika here this morning after a Bersatu meeting last night. Discussions are expected to revolve around the coalition’s survival after its chief, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, resigned as prime minister on Monday. Now, the government is led by Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, with the race hotting up for the deputy prime minister and cabinet posts. - More -   Ahmad Maslan next to shoot down PN federal govt label Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 10:24 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR – Another Umno leader has dismissed the Perikatan Nasional government label, saying the current government should rather be called a mixed one. Umno secretary-general and Pontian MP Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan posted on Twitter last night that the new government, led by Umno’s DAtuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, is not the previous PN administration. “For me, this is not a Perikatan Nasional government but a mixed one comprising Barisan Nasional, PNl, Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) and Parti Bersatu Sarawak (PBS). “PN only has Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Sabah Star – and not BN, GPS and PBS.” He is not the only one fighting the PN label. - More -   Hudud in M’sia? Look at my country now, warns Afghan refugee Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 10:13 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR – Salim (not his real name) fled Kabul to Malaysia after Taliban-linked criminals threatened his family’s life and safety. But now, he warns Malaysia not to adopt ideologies similar to those held by the Afghan militant group, which just took over the country after the United States’ abrupt exit following 20 years of war. When told about the existence of a Malaysian-based Islamic political party that has pushed for the implementation of a strict hudud code of law, Salim advised the country to look no further than Afghanistan. “I’m a refugee who loves Malaysia and has a deep connection with the country ever since my son was born here. I urge Malaysians to learn from the Afghan experience. Whatever happened there can happen anywhere. “If there are those here that support similar ideologies with the Taliban, it is possible that Malaysia may face the same fate as Afghanistan,” Salim told The Vibes. - More -   Not so bad for Bersatu to be out of Cabinet, say analysts Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 10:02 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: With Bersatu no longer the dominant force in Putrajaya, an analyst believes it may not be a bad idea for the party to stay out of Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s government. Socio-political analyst Awang Azman Pawi of Universiti Malaya said Bersatu could be more vocal in providing a check and balance on the new government if party MPs were not part of the Cabinet. “If they are part of the Cabinet, and we know decisions are made by consensus, it would be harder for them to be critical of the government and Umno if the new administration underperforms,” he said. Yesterday, Bersatu denied an online portal’s report that said Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin had proposed rejecting appointments to the new Cabinet. The party’s information chief Wan Saiful Wan Jan said the report which cited sources was ill-intended and aimed at creating divisions within the party. - More -   Now, more than ever, we need Tunku Abdul Rahman Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 09:57 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: The nation’s first prime minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj, embodied deep-seated humility in an era of boundless Malaysian optimism. The story of the man called Bapa Merdeka and Bapa Malaysia, as the architect of Malayan independence and the formation of Malaysia, teaches us many things about the type of people we wish to see in public office at times of deep challenge. Perhaps, most of all, it shows us the importance of being humble: humility breeds empathy; arrogance yields division and failure. In a series to mark the 64th anniversary of Merdeka, FMT has collected timeless photographs of the Tunku, who served as prime minister from 1957 to 1970, to give a taste of a man who was a symbol of unity, interracial peace and harmony. - More -   Searching for HOMELESS People in China Posted by: superadmin - 08-22-2021, 09:48 AM - Forum: Business, Economy and Investment - No Replies   Shame on you for celebrating when country still besieged by Covid-19: Upko sec-gen Posted by: superadmin - 08-21-2021, 05:10 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KOTA KINABALU – United Progressive Kinabalu Organisation (Upko) thinks that the appointment of Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob is going to make Malaysia a laughing stock in the global arena.  Its secretary-general Nelson W. Angang criticised congratulatory messages from other parties to Ismail while hoping for a better Malaysia.  “How can it be better when it’s the same people from the same government that you want to better? “What is there to congratulate, to celebrate about? The country is still besieged by the threat of Covid-19 and the numbers of daily infections and deaths are at a record high. “Let there be no mistake that the instability the country is experiencing was caused by the internal squabbles for the premiership by the PN (Perikatan Nasional) government itself, specifically between Bersatu and Umno,” he said in a statement today. Angang said the country was dragged into uncertainties for months and was on the brink of a constitutional crisis because of the chaos created and power lust between the leaders of the PN government. He recalled that even Istana Negara was not spared their political squabbling and was dragged into the messy handling of the “so-called ‘revocation’” of the emergency ordinances. The senior party member scathingly called the returning political administration out for “celebrating and congratulating” one another even though they had pushed the country to the “brink of collapse” but in the end, managed to salvage their position through political negotiations. “They are a disgrace to our country on how they have abused and manipulated the democratic process by hiding behind our sacred federal constitution,” he said.  - More -   Choose carefully, not all in old Cabinet were liked, PM advised Posted by: superadmin - 08-21-2021, 04:49 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob must take the rakyat’s sentiments against the previous administration into consideration when picking his Cabinet, says an Umno Youth leader. Speaking to FMT, Federal Territories Umno Youth chief Mohamed Nizham Abdullah Hamidi said the prime minister has the prerogative to shape his Cabinet. He said while it was important that efforts to address the health and economic crises should be continued, public sentiment was also important. “The people are not happy with the management of several critical areas, especially health and the economy. So he must first evaluate the performance of the previous Cabinet.” - More -   China tests superfast satellite that can prevent another MH370 traged Posted by: superadmin - 08-21-2021, 04:46 PM - Forum: Technology - No Replies BEIJING: A Chinese satellite has tested a technology that can offer the most accurate means yet of tracking air traffic from space in the hope of preventing a repeat of the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 tragedy, according to a report in the South China Morning Post. It says each aircraft in the sky emits a radio signal but constantly monitoring all planes over a large area is technically challenging. “Beihang Kongshi 1, a small satellite in near-Earth orbit, can update the status of an aircraft every eight seconds – about twice as fast as American technology, meaning the tracking is more accurate,” it said, quoting a report in the state-run Science and Technology Daily. Launched last November, Beihang Kongshi 1’s new radio surveillance technology and hardware, some of it being used in space for the first time, had achieved results that suggested it worked “quite well”, according to the report. The project is still at an experimental stage, but could lead to a global tracking system involving “hundreds of satellites”, the report said. That would enable airlines to quickly locate a plane even if it lost contact. - More -   Give priority to merit for top posts, not political links, says Cuepacs Posted by: superadmin - 08-21-2021, 04:21 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KOTA KINABALU: Cuepacs says the new government must appoint chief secretaries or senior government officials based on their merit instead of favouritism. Its president, Adnan Mat, said these appointments must be made based on qualifications and capability, adding that the selection should not be influenced by political factors or favouritism by ministers. “This is vital to ensure the government machinery led by the prime minister and his Cabinet can be assisted by government officers who possess the right calibre, integrity and capability. “Only this can subsequently ensure successful delivery of all of the government’s programmes,” he said in a statement today. - More - Pages (1235): « Previous 1 … 978 979 980 981 982 … 1235 Next » Jump to page:
