KJ John TheNew Straits Times(NST) title paper last Sunday screamed, "CollectiveIntegrity" as a reply to a Auditor-General's Report tabled in Parliament.
They additionally carried a full as great as disdainful talk with a auditor-general of Malaysia focused upon this issue of "our collective disaster to stand up to a exam of a national firmness being audited".
you have regularly argued this as my prayer for a nation, with a difference "to integrate with integrity". Therefore, concede me to all determine with theNST's supposition which you have critical need for most some-more "collective integrity; as a people as great as nation-state".
But, you contingency go beyond, mere "public use accountability", you contingency direct such standards of firmness within a entire nation. This is thus my call for value as a value as great as virtue you should all hunger for for.
We contingency direct for firmness in all matters, as great as especially associated to a financial as great as mercantile accountability. We contingency direct a same for every sen spent by any supervision of a day, upon seductiveness of all citizens, as great as tangible by a open interest. But, where should such shortcoming as great as burden be located? Cannot such shortcoming as great as burden be assigned to all open commissioners, whether it is a auditor-general, or a human rights commissioner, or a open! service s commissioner, or a anti-corruption commissioner?
And should not all such open burden as great as shortcoming inform without delay to a Parliament, as great as not anymore merely to a Executive?
Moreover, already a inspector-general of police, a attorney-general, as great as a armed forces chief, for example, do not sit in a cabinet, though have been without delay usually obliged as great as underneath obligation to a cupboard ministers. But, have been you confident with their opening tangible by their pass opening indicators (KPIs)? What about all alternative director-generals? Who have been they in conclusion underneath obligation to, if not a elected assembly?
To me, these shortcoming as great as burden issues have been huge concerns as you proceed a 13th general election.
Bribery, corruption, as great as truth
Everyone loves sports. Not everyone, however, loves to be all underneath obligation as great as obliged for clearly-defined external standards of opening of similarly high peculiarity of inputs, processes with measured outputs as great as outcomes. Winning is regularly what care defines winning to be.
Recently, a world-renown cyclist has been found guilty by a care of a world physique as great as nude off 7 seven years of global titles, as great as systematic to repay all his past loot to a balance of about US$ 4 million.
This guilt has eventually been established by a World Sports Body, after quite a little years of heavy-duty investigation as great as science-based forensic study, which was great concurrent with a choreographed system of integrated temptation with corruption, which then led to a use of a performance-enhancing drugs, to keep winning during all costs.
Tru! th conti ngency matter to all of us, even about this.
Private equity contra open investments?
The New Yorker, in an paper upon Sept 19, 2012 wrote:
"If a keynote of (United States boss Barack) Obama's administration has been open investment whether in infrastructure, education, or illness a keynote of (Republican presidential nominee Mitt) Romney's candidacy has been in isolation equity, a realm in which potency as great as profitability have been a supreme values". Our choice as a nation, too, swings in between these options. Do you unequivocally need to concede a creation of some-more wealthy particular investors or corporations premised merely upon open products delivery, aided as great as abetted by a supervision incentives, or, do you not need some-more focus upon social investments of a entrepreneurial kind to residence a needs of a bottom 40 percent?
Organisations today do not exist merely for distinction maximisation. The distinction of any business-type operation is a lifeblood for presence of its system of bona fide interests. Profits have been income which exceeds output associated to costs of operation. Therefore, profits for any bona fide organization (including NGOs), have been similar to oxygen for breathing for humans.
No human being lives merely to breathe; neither does any association live usually to have profits. Profits, similar to oxygen, have been necessary for presence of any organization though it is not a solitary purpose of her existence. All organisations have a little alternative some-more important bona fide purpose; araison d'treor reason for existence.
Therefore, it is fathomable which organisations exist, not usually for profits, though for a little larger as great as meaningful purposes of a creators. Most organisations thus have an option; whether they exist for open great investments or in isolation products equity acquisition. Most not-for-profit organizations, similar to Suaram or Oriental Hearts as great as Mind Study Institute (OHMSI) or Islamic Renaissance Front (IRF) have been never illegitimate though instead have as bona fide an agenda as a in isolation equity ones with similarly requisite reasons for their existence.
Let us thus not be misled by most hype.
Whither then a 'collective integrity' as a nation-state?
Professor Shad Saleem Farouqi titled hismagnum opuson a Malaysian constitution: Our 'document of destiny'. you call it a "our usual prophesy for integration with integrity." The Malaysian sovereign constitution defines all a laws as great as values for great poise as a nation-state of three collective British colonies.
All nation-states have been regularly artificially crafted as great as have been usually about 60 to 70-years-old as a complicated ideal. We, as one republic with three states, have been advantageous to have been birthed when you were underneath a influence a British Commonwealth. Our Malaysia is right away in her 49th year as great as relocating towards a 50th Birthday. It is a Jubilee year.
Our rulers were without delay involved in historic negotiations, as great as thus their purpose as great as shortcoming remains to defend certain pass facilities which you concluded to as great as wrote in to a laws of a nation.
Likewise, as peninsular Malaysians, you additionally have an agreement with Sabahans as great as Sarawakians which as well needs to be celebrated for a destiny as great as survival.
But, you cannot usually become 1Malaysia as argued by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak by a push of a button; you can usually become 1BangsaMalaysians; when a people have been entirely integrated with integrity. The nation-state (or 1Malaysia) already exists by definition of a sovereign constitution.
Many hurdles thus remain, not a least of which is a family review about what is as great as is not an Islamic state?
The Truth Matters Forum is co-organised by IRF as great as OHMSI to assistance us to consider through what a prophesy for a destiny is as great as is not.
KJ JOHN This was a content of a opening speech delivered by a bard upon a arise of a Islamic state discourse during FGT in Subang Jaya upon Nov 3, 2012.
