'Selamat Hari Raya Peliwat 2.0' as well as 'Justice for Saiful': Guess from whom?

A grioup of around 40 men held a mini though loud criticism against Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim near a front entrance to a Jalan Duta probity formidable upon Thursday.

The protesters held banners in support of sodomy complainant Saiful Bukhari Azlan, with a difference 'Selamat Hari Raya Peliwat 2.0' and'Justice for Saiful'. Dressed often in yellow T-shirts, a organisation additionally shouted anti-Anwar slogans.

Saiful was a PKR celebration worker when he alleged a sexual assault, though before that he was an UMNO tyro personality as well as his father an UMNO stalwart.

Malaysians have done up their minds upon a case

Or remove complete credit as a supervision as well as domestic engine.

In a end, Najib's greatest downfall will be own failure to chalk swell for a republic especially in things economic, they said. They additionally believe he has been really bad advised as well as that jailing Anwar would certainly boomerang.

Anwar himself has pronounced he does not expect a fair hearing as well as that a entire issue was due to his domestic enemies trying to keep him down. Now 64, a Opposition Leader has additionally indicted Saiful of "lying through his teeth".

"He has additionally been a pass UMNO tyro operative, carrying undergone a severe training conducted by a Biro Tats Negara of a Prime Ministers Department. And here you was a 60-year-old male with a story of back damage who had undergone a vital back operation holding no in front of of power. If in truth you could have exercised any kind of undue change or mental vigour upon him, this could have been simply neutralized by a discerning phone c! all to h is connections. As regards a fear of earthy harm, it would take a good widen of a imagination to suggest that you could poise any earthy mistreat to him," pronounced Anwar.

"This entire process is zero though a conspiracy b! y Prime Minister Dato Seri Najib Razak to send me in to domestic oblivion by attempting once again to put me during a back of bars. Najib Razak is doing a same thing as his mentor did, that is to occupy all means within his power through a media, a police, a Attorney General as well as a judiciary in sequence to subvert a course of probity as well as to take me out of a domestic equation."

In his letter, Azlan pronounced he believed Saiful had a right to hearing within a in accord with period. Coincidentally, a minute sparked a unreasonable of UMNO-linked groups to 'speak up' for Saiful.

One dimension of a 6P module is deportation that cannot be practical to refugees, she said.

The miss of information as well as conference upon a stroke of a module upon refugees has resulted in augmenting a communitys stress as well as stress.

She then took a Home Ministry to task for its irresponsibility as well as miss of transparent decisions that has resulted in a module ! riddled with questions as well as uncertainties.

The ministry has usually since responses that simulate arrogance of power as well as not good governance, she stated. The same sporadic decisions have been right away reflected in a registration of ! refugees with no consultation, planning as well as processes set in place.

Fernandez additionally pushed a ministry to insist as well as explain a objectives, procedures as well as process for a registration of refugees as well as its stroke upon their continued stay in Malaysia.

If there is any form of registration by a government, it contingency be to enlarge a insurance of a rights of refugees, she added.

Right right away this registration exercise has serve reinforced how inefficient as well as random a module has been since it began in July.

The concept of Charity in Islam

Charity, preached by each sacrament of a world, is a approach of bringing probity to society. And probity is a essence of religion, Islam has therefore done gift that is Zakah, requisite as great as contracting upon all those who welcome a faith; it has been done in to an institution in order to give in hold up as great as regularity.

A multitude can flourish usually when its members do not outlay all their resources to fulfil their own desires though haven a portion of it for parents, relatives, neighbors, a bad as great as a debilitated. As a observant goes: Charity starts during home. A loyal believer is to illustrate regularly prepared, after assembly a needs of his family, to assist alternative people in need of his help.

Thus a spirit of affability as great as great wishing is a essence of charity. The giver is not to design any prerogative from a beneficiary as there awaits for him an abundant prerogative from God - material, moral as great as devout - what God deems it most appropriate to confer upon His servant.

Charity should be rightly warranted or acquired by a giver. It should embody such things as are of use as great as value to others.

"Charity is for those in need." This is ubiquitous principle that enjoins us to assistance people in need, be they great or bad, upon a right trail or not, Muslims or non-Muslims. No a single should judge in these matters. The foremost ends in gift should be God's wish as great as a own devout good. The judgment of gift in Islam is to illustrate related with justice. It is not singular to a redressal of grievances. It implies apart from a removal of handicaps, a approval of a right that each human being has to achieve a fullness of life.

The spirit of assisting others to consequence God's wish is most appropriate reflected in Muslim multitude in a field of educatio! n. The g reatest gift for a Muslim is to learn something as great as afterwards learn it to alternative Muslims in vast numbers. Th! us Musli ms have devoted themselves to other's preparation era after generation. Knowledge is a most smashing thing in a sum universe. That is because there is nothing larger afterwards knowledge being imparted by a single human being to another. Muslims upon a vast scale have intent themselves in reception preparation as great as imparting it to others, individually as great as by substantiating maktabs as great as madrasas, that is, initial schools as great as Colleges. These educational institutions determined in a residence of a teachers or in separate buildings, generally done no charges for instruction. During a Gothic period, these madrasas flourished in tens of thousands throughout a Muslim world. The wealthy people helped in running these madrasas, not usually though Zakah, though additionally by making endowments (wakf), of their properties as these madrasas. The income from these properties met a needs of these schools. The orphans as great as bad people were since stipends over as great as upon top of giveaway board as great as lodging.

There are dual forms of gift in Islam - requisite as great as voluntary, called Zakah as great as Sadaqah respectively.

The judgment of gift appears in most of a world's religions. The Islamic tradition has firm laws associated with it. It is pronounced that those Muslims who do not reside by them are certainly beheld by their God, Allah (SWT). Charity in Islam is seen as an amplification of a preferred of village inside of a religion. When a Muslim chairman raises supports he is not entertainment money for a stranger, rsther than he is behaving upon behalf of his own family. Everyone in a Islamic village is seen to reside in a residence of Allah, as a single people. Thus a clarification of gift in Islamic tradition differs rsther than from its understand in alternative contexts.

The Qur'an states: 'And be indifferen! t in you r request as great as compensate charity; whatever great we send onward for your future, we shall find it with Allah, for Allah is great wakeful of what we do' (2:110). Charity is central to a Muslim's life.

The most appropriate gift is to satisfy a hungry pe! rson, sa id Prophet Muhammad (SAS). He additionally pronounced "No resources (of a menial of Allah) is decreased because of charity." (Al-Tirmidhi, Hadith No. 2247).

This writer believes in a axiom "WE KNOW HOW TO MAKE MONEY BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHO TO SPEND MONEY". We outlay a initial 20 to 30 years of a lives in appropriation skilled as great as marketable talents to consequence money, though we are not taught how to outlay money. We are not since guidance concerning financial transactions.

Spending in a approach of Allah 'fee Sabil Allah" e.g. in Hajj, in Jihad, a poor, upon widows as great as orphans or upon kin as great as friends to assistance them out. The Qur'an encourages a Muslim to present their funds: 'the likeness of those who outlay their resources in a approach of Allah, is as a likeness of a pellet that sprouts 7 spikes. In each spike there are 100 grains, as great as Allah multiplies for whom He will' (2:261). Giving gift is thereby not seen as detracting from income, though rsther than as a multiplication in conditions of devout observance. It is similar to a single who sows a great pellet of wheat in a field from that grows a plant upon that sprout 7 ears as great as each ear yields hundred grains. As a result, a single pellet was worth a sum yield of 700 grains. When a single spends in a approach of Allah, he or she receives in return (reward in a Hereafter) upon a scale of a single to 7 hundred.

Sayyidna Abdullah ibn Abbas (RA) said: The rewards of spending a single dirham in Jihad as great as Hajj is equal to 700 dirhams.

How to get 700 grains out of a single grain? This is probable usually when a pellet is good. The rancher is an consultant in a art of farming. The soil for a pellet should be! good; w e need to add fertilizer, water, as great as sunshine to a plant. One needs to prevent disease to a plant as great as additionally prevent a plant to be eaten by cattle, etc. Similarly that that is spent in a approach of Allah should be clean, pristine as great as Halal (lawful)- BECAUSE ALLAH ALMIGHTY ACCEPTS NOTHING EXCEPT WHAT IS CLEAN, PURE AND HALAL.

Spender should be great in intentions as great as moral in dee! ds. The a single to whom Sadaqah (charity) is since should additionally be deserving of it. It should not be wasted by spending upon a non-deserving.

Masnoon (according to Sunnah)

Abu Hurayrah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as observant that Allah, a Most Blessed as great as High, said: O son of Adam, I will outlay upon you. The right palm of Allah is full as great as superfluous as great as nothing would diminish it, by overspending day as great as night. (Sahih Muslim; Kitab al-Zakat; p. 477)

The following 5 words are a most often used words to describe gift in a Noble Qur'an:

1. Infaq fi Sabil Allah (spending in a trail of Allah). Infaq Meaning spending benevolently

2. Ihsan Meaning a you do of great or (kindness as great as consideration

3. Zakah Meaning expansion or purification

4. Sadaqah Derived from a root sidq as great as meaning truth, as great as comes to weigh charitable deed

5. Khayrat Meaning great deeds

Malaysias Electoral System in need of reform

August 24, 2011

Malaysias Electoral System in need of reform Francis Loh

Malaysians have been good aware of a unlevel playing margin which characterises a electoral process. As elections approach, Malaysians see obviously a Barisan Nasional (BN)s monopoly as good as strategy of a media, a entrance as good as abuse of supervision facilities as good as funds, as good as a possession of outrageous electoral war chests, which concede a BN parties to outspend a challengers.

In between elections, a BNs inaugurated member have entrance to so-called subdivision development supports to finance minor collateral works projects and/or to sponsor programmes of particular schools, associations, religious organisations, residential communities, etc, favoured by them, whereas a same is denied to a inaugurated antithesis representatives. This is a obvious negligence of a compulsory equal diagnosis of all inaugurated member as enshrined in any notion of parliamentary democracy.

Yet most Malaysians still cruise a elections as good as a electoral routine as critical facilities of a inherent complement of government; not slightest because it is a a single superfluous approved establishment which is still beyond a grip of a Executive. Here, a indeterminate can still occur, during slightest during a subdivision level, if not during a state level.

Five different choosing laws as good as regulations have been right away in place in a country. These have been the:

Election Act 1958;

! Election Offences Act 1954;

Election Commission A! ct 1957;

Elections (Conduct of Elections) Regulations 1981; and

Elections (Registration of Electors) Regulations 1974.

The Acts have been statutory or first laws which require Parliaments assent whilst a Regulations have been delegate laws which do not necessarily require parliamentary assent. Apart from these, assorted parts of a Federal Constitution have been additionally endangered with electoral matters. Articles 48-54 plead a workings of Parliament as good as a Members of Parliament; articles 113-120 plead a specificities of Malaysias first-past-the-post or elementary infancy electoral complement including a purpose of a Elections Commission (SPR); whilst a 13th Schedule (added to a Constitution in 1962) contains beliefs for a de-lineation of constituencies including a argumentative judgment of farming weightage.

There additionally used to be laws for conducting internal authority elections which used to be a underline of Malaysias democracy in a 1950s up to a early 1960s. Ostensibly because of konfrontasi with Indonesia, all internal supervision elections were suspended in 1964. Despite calls by a opposition, as good as by a Athi Nahappan Royal Commission of Enquiry set up by a supervision to look in to a workings of internal authorities, for a re-introduction of internal elections, these were abolished through an Act of Parliament in 1974. Significantly, a antithesis used to win most of these internal supervision elections not usually in a brand brand new villages though in vital towns similar to Georgetown, Ipoh as good as Malacca too.

Indeed, a BN has nice a Constitution, a choosing laws as good as regulations perennially so as to tighten a grip over a electoral routine as good as thereby discharge a idealisation surprise: a shift of supervision from a BN to an antithesis a single during a sovereign level.

Erosion of SPRs Autonomy

In a strange Merdeka Constitution, an imp! artial E lection Commission (SPR) was put in to place. Since then, assorted Constitutional amendments have transformed a SPR int! o a shel l of a strange self. These amendments have been discussed below.

The Constitution (Amendment) Act of 1960 nice Article 114 (4) to provide for a dismissal from a SPR of any member who engages in any paid bureau or practice outward a duties of his office. This was an try to mislay a afterwards authority of a SPR, who had displayed most independence as good as was non-partisan in conducting a division of constituencies for a 1959 choosing as good as then, a re-delineation of constituencies in accordance with a brand brand new inherent provisions (which between alternative things compulsory which a disparity between constituencies be not some-more than 15 per cent from a average subdivision size). His dismissal failed.

The Constitution Amendment Act of 1962 was an additional try to mislay a authority though it additionally increased a governments powers of carry out over a SPR by empowering council to determine a conditions of bureau of a SPR. More importantly, a constituencies progressing defined by a SPR were annulled by a Act thereby retaining a 1959 constituencies. The process of apportioning constituencies between states afterwards in use was additionally repealed. The brand brand new 13th Schedule was added to a Constitution with dual critical consequences. First, a pre-independence 2 to 1 farming weightage (lowered to inside of 15 percent of a average subdivision as endorsed by a Reid Commission) was restored. Second, energy to determine constituencies was transferred from a SPR to a celebration in power. Henceforth a SPR would usually delineate as good as recommend brand brand new constituencies to a prime minister who would afterwards list it in council where usually a simply infancy sufficed. The PM could additionally have changes to a recommendations after such consultation with a SPR as he might cruise necessary.

The Constitutional Amendment Act (! No 2) of 1973 private a energy of a SPR to apportion constituencies between a assorted states. Both a series of constituencies as good as a dividend between a assorted states have been right away specified in a ! Constitu tion (Art 46) as good as to illustrate amendable during any time supposing it receives a two-thirds infancy support. The Act serve transposed a 1962 order contained in 2c of the13th Schedule, with apply oneself to a 2:1 variation in a distance of constituencies, with a brand brand new stipulation which a magnitude of weightage ought to be given to such (i.e. rural) constituencies. This brand brand new wording remains till today permitting for farming weightage though without obviously limiting it.

The Constitution (Amendment) (No.2) Act of 1984 private a upper 10 year limit for subdivision reviews. Thus reviews do not need to be conducted even after 10 years. More importantly, a brand brand new proviso to Article 113 provides for a examination of any affected area by a SPR at your convenience there is a shift in a series of seats in council or any state assembly. This means which a celebration in energy can effect a shift in a constituencies during any time as good as for any apportionment of a Federation or any state by merely varying a series of seats in a Dewan Rakyat, or those of a state assembly.

The proviso serve absolves all such reviews from strict correspondence with a beliefs of constituency description contained in a 13th Schedule These ultimate amendments give a statute bloc most coherence in reviewing constituencies. Other than a SPR initiating a examination after 8 years, a supervision of a day can shift a series of seats in council or a state under a control, as good as afterwards call a SPR to conduct a review. And this can be done w! ithout a dhering to a manners binding normal reviews.

In effect, a statute bloc has insincere effective carry out over subdivision description as well. The examination can be conducted progressing than 8 years given a final review. There have been no longer pure boundary to farming weightage. And! all rev iews have been subjected to a PMs amendment before being submitted to council for a elementary infancy approval. Under a circumstances, a manners of subdivision description have been hereafter largely nominal in nature dictated to lending legitimacy to a wishes of a statute coalition.

Reforming a System

Instead of indulging in a politics of exclusion as good as denial, a BN supervision should attempt to have politics accessible to all. Without amending any laws, a SPR could be directed to look in to issues such as:

rectifying a mal-apportionment of a constituencies wherein a little urban constituencies have been some-more than 4 times bigger than a farming ones (in conditions of population size), thereby undermining a principle of a single male a single vote;

providing satisfactory entrance to a mass media as good as curbing lies as good as misinformation in a media;

insisting upon a open stipulation of electoral finance management by all candidates; providing for longer campaign periods so which a people can be informed of a issues;

permitting open-air rallies, detached from ceramahs to be held; introducing an involuntary complement of voter registration;

cleaning a electoral rolls to discharge phantom voters, making a complement of postal choosing by casting votes accessible to all, not usually members of a armed forces, as good as making a routine some-more transparent.

It will be a long wait for before a BN delivers upon such electoral reforms. Malaysians similar to us must arise up to push for these reforms ourselves. Clearly, this has been a intent of Bersih 2.0. aliran.com

Sabah and Sarawak should get out of Malaysia

Written by: Dr. John Brian Anthony

I saw which a on top of captioned is really distinguished in a face book. The supporters have been gathering steam as good as you consternation how could this occur to a younger era of Sabah as good as Sarawak. What did a Sabah /Sarawak girl see as good as experience in Malaysia currently which have them angry. Doesnt a BN supervision try to have them happy?

Colonization of Sabah as good as Sarawak.

As you all know, a reason have been many as good as these immature educated mind can pick up report from all sources, analyze it as good as have their own conclusion which Sabah / Sarawak (S/S) is but a colony of Malaya. S/S form Malaysia with Malaya as good as Singapore in a hope of a better future. In a end, as of today, Malaysia move land grab, have illegal immigrant absolute which they can vote a supervision they want, mislaid job opportunities to Malayan people, mislaid their healthy resources revenue to Malaya, bullied by officials who run a eremite department, deprived of premier education opportunity, done bad as good as supervision could not caring less, as good as all in all a future of S / S is not starting to be better underneath a colonial policies (ketuanan melayu) of Malaya.

The on top of paragraph seemed to total up a pent up frustration as good as anger of a girl of S/S. Little consternation afterwards which Pakatan Rakyat is picking up support as a immature electorate start to reject BN Government.

The Rejection of BN Government

I contingency contend which BN try to move a lot of alleviation to S/S. Unfortunately a stream State leaders have been CORRUPT to a bone. The total BN member parties members have been longing for quick reduced term monetary benefit as good as left a bad people with small or nothing to enjoy. The RACIALIS! T policy of BN UMNO have been bringing disunity instead of a strong a united country. But a leaders of BN refused to acknowledge their fol! ly as good as t shawl would be their genocide bed in politics. BN do not know how to attend to a people. BN think which they have been all absolute as good as whatever they contend goes. Educated immature people do not determine to such approach.

We have been office building a republic not a race or to have a religion supreme. Our history as good as identity have been opposite afterwards how have been you starting to have which homogenize.

As ciizen of Malaysia you should have next to rights. It seems Malaysia is putting in service Animal Farm governing body as written by George Owell, who wrote which all animals have been next to but a little animals have been more next to afterwards others. That statement seemed to describe what is Malaysia currently really well.

S/S to get out of Malaysia

This is a really sensitive topics to a Federal BN Government. Many people has been put underneath Internal security Act apprehension since they disciple a idea which S/S should get out of Malaysia if they wish to progress. S/S is prohibited to get out of Malaysia by LAW. So if you wish S/S to get out of Malaysia you have to reason a referendum or get ready to quarrel a polite war with Malaya as a colonial master.

Malaysia was good designed which you do not need to review to quarrel to get out of Malaysia if a Federal Government behave fairly. The eighteen / 20 points is an agreement to have S/S autonomous in all a elements of a agreement. Some of a point has been incorporated in a sovereign Constitution BUT subsequent BN leaders possibly out of greed or simply irrationality if not solid irrationality do not take historical resources seriously.

The Federal Government underneath their National Integration policy push for Ketuanan Melayu ideas as good as by you do so marginalized a people of S/S. This marginalization or da! mage of next to rights as good as opportunities is seen as a colonizing behavior of BN Federal Government. It seems a girl of S/S is taking a quarrel to resist this colonization policy of a Federal Government.

So a sovereign Government contingency take serious perspective of their own behavior as good as cha! nge it b ecause a S/S girl have decided to change their own self to defend a liberty element as inbedded in a eighteen / 20 points agreement.

Conclusion

IT IS INTERESTING matter done by a former Chairman of Sabah Tithe Centre (PZS) Datuk Syed Abas Syed Ali with regards to involvement of community leaders, together with elected deputy in a placement of tithes to a target groups (DE 23/08/2011)

Ive in actuality been waiting for a response from MUIS with regard to this topic. My earlier query antiquated sometime upon 19/02 this year has not been responded. Among my queries were, we wanted to know where as well as how was a item of MUIS RM400 million twenty years ago?

How is Baitul Mal functioning, a not inside of a ambit of MUIS? How does a constitution of MUIS concede it to be functionally separated?

It is tall time for us Muslim in Sabah to see if a supposed transparency of activities of public institutions such as Baitul Mal as well as MUIS is at work as well as is exercised by a administrators as well as managers alike.

Public has right to see for e.g. pick up of tithes over a years, how a collections were organized, how placement have been made, or even what have been a criteria of a recipients- a so called waif as well as a needy alike.

How as well as what were feat so far, or whats a success index if you alike? we was sensitive even promises done by a MUIS personals with regards to facilities for those newly modify to Islam (Mualaf) have not been fulfilled in many districts.

My thought of bringing this to a surface so that everybody can learn what democracy is all about, Islam propelled based upon transparency as well as a part of a post of office building certitude between a Ummah! .

Come back! to a emanate of YBs have right in a placement of tithes to a target group, we think we need more construction from Datuk Syed.

In actuality upon a question of right, every Muslim has right not only a YB, as well as to supplement to this, it isnt only for UMNO YBs. we would still think a improved to leave it to God to decide who gets what as well as how much in a day after.

Ben Smith as well as I report upon a categorical site how The Atlantic has become a ultimate media organisation to get tangled in a scandal surrounding FBC Media, a British organisation upon whose house Atlantic Media Co. President Justin Smith sat until a bad press moved him to resign.

The Atlantic is a ultimate media organization to launch an inner review in to a connections with a British organisation which has provided paper content upon foreign subjects whilst you do open family work for some of a same governments it was stating on, a spokeswoman concurred to POLITICO.

In further to a inner review, a magazine additionally said Justin Smith, president of Atlantic Media Co., has resigned from a house of FBC Media, a firm during a center of a controversy over whether it improperly churned a broadcasting as well as PR businesses.

The disclosure which FBC Media had a stipulate with a Malaysian government during a same time it was producing certain radio segments about Malaysia for CNBC, BBC as well as alternative vital broadcasters, led CNBC as well as BBC to pull all FBC Media-produced content as well as launch their own inner investigations in a past month.

The truth is which Alan Friedman has been a crony of cave for nearly twenty years, Smith said.

What I would particularly regret, should these accusations destined during FBC be proven true, is my purpose in having introduced Alan to The Atlantics editors as well as event planners.

I have destined a full review of The Atlantics dealings with him, as well as a shortcoming during The Atlantic for any problems it competence uncover will be mine. It is my pursuit to safeguard during all costs The Atlantics reputation for paper integrity.
