Another Reform already in place

Many may not realise that the Madani government has put in place the Integrity and Anti-Corruption Studies as part of the General Studies for Malaysian Universities.

This has, in fact, been going on for two years now. How many of us even seen how this initiative is part of Anwar’s fight against corruption? With a cleaner society, the next generation of businesses people can expect a more level playing field.

I only learnt about this recently through a lecturer who teaches the subject.

It reflects Anwar’s commitment to fighting corruption. Under Azam Baki’s leadership, the MACC has taken on high-profile cases that were previously untouched—including two Tun figures and their family members. News or many of these cases on you can get on Youtube, or if you go to TikTok, you will be find them if you search Friends of SPRM.

Millions have been seized from civil servants, notably from immigration and customs departments. The MACC has also dismantled numerous syndicates involved in corrupt practices. If you possess any information, please contact the MACC.

The Integrity and anti-corruption studies curriculum in universities now replaces Malaysian Studies—formerly one of the three compulsory elective subjects. This is more meaningful looking forward to a brighter future for our next generation.

This is what Gemini provided me: “.The course discusses the importance of transparency and accountability in government and business. It examines real-world case studies of corruption and the consequences for those involved. And it explores the role of individuals and organisations in promoting a culture of integrity and combating corruption.

“It also explores the role of technology in fighting corruption, besides touching on how things like data analytics and blockchain can be used to track transactions and identify suspicious activity.”

My heart will go on

It must be at least twenty years ago when I first encountered Malaysia’s very own Stevie Wonder, Colin Ng Soon Beng. It was during Chinese New Year, at the home of a mutual friend. Colin was only about ten years old then. His mother introduced him to me as a “special child.” She said, “Pick a song. We’ll play it for Colin to listen, and he will play it back for you.” I chose My Heart Will Go On from Titanic. To this day, Colin still remembers that it was the song he played for me. Born with multiple disabilities, Colin’s journey has been anything but ordinary. Being visually impaired, he could not learn music the way most children do. Yet God blessed him with an extraordinary gift: a razor-sharp ear. He could identify the brand of a photocopier or the model of a car simply by hearing its sound. His mother, Janet, devoted her life to nurturing his talent. After losing her husband when Colin was 24, she became not only a mother but also a father figure, chauffeur, and companion in ...

DALAM EMPAT BAHASA/ IN FOUR LANGUAGES/在四种语言中/ நான்கு மொழிகளில்: A Piece of Good News Worth Celebratinng

Akhirnya, anak Sarawak ini — Soliman Wan — telah menerima kewarganegaraannya! Dilahirkan 52 tahun lalu di kawasan pedalaman Sarawak, bukan sesuatu yang mudah bagi ayah dan ibunya untuk ke bandar bagi mendaftarkan kelahriannya. Tambahan pula, pada waktu itu, ramai penduduk di Sabah dan Sarawak kurang memahami kepentingan dokumen rasmi sebagai bukti status kewarganegaraan. Soliman dilahirkan pada tahun 1974, ketika Malaysia baru berusia 13 tahun. Kefahaman mengenai kewarganegaraan masih belum begitu meluas, terutamanya dalam kalangan masyarakat yang tercicir daripada arus pembangunan dan sistem pendidikan negara. Kehidupan Soliman sebagai seorang pastor penuh dengan cabaran. Tanpa kewarganegaraan, beliau tidak dapat memiliki kad pengenalan, memohon pasport, membuka akaun bank, dan pergerakannya sangat terhad, malah di dalam negara sendiri. Gajinya terpaksa dibayar melalui akaun individu lain yang dipercayai. Kini, dengan penganugerahan kewarganegaraan ini, komuniti Kristian di gerejanya ...

Aduan Sifar: Tauladan Dato' Zahri Samingon menerajui Aduan Sifar untuk MBPJ perlu dicontohi oleh Yang DIPertua Majlis-majlis lain

Saya amat kagum dengan Datuk Bandar Petaling Jaya, Dato’ Zahri Samingon. Dalam satu perbincangan ringkas melalui WhatsApp, saya menyuarakan kebimbangan bahawa kesesakan lalu lintas yang ketara berkemungkinan berlaku di persimpangan Jalan 16/11 dan Jalan 17/1 dalam beberapa bulan akan datang. Saya baru sahaja dimaklumkan bahawa satu lagi jemaah gereja berskala besar akan berpindah ke situ pada bulan Julai, yang hampir pasti akan menambah tekanan di persimpangan yang sedia sibuk tersebut. Dalam perbualan kami menggunakan WhatsApp, saya mengemukakan beberapa cadangan dan menjelaskan satu konsep yang saya percaya beliau sudah pun faham dengan baik, iaitu Zero Complaints (Aduan Sifar). Ini merupakan satu prinsip yang kami pelajari di bawah sistem Excellence Through Quality (EQ) yang diperkenalkan oleh guru kualiti Philip Crosby. Konsep Zero Complaints ini ringkas tetapi sangat berkesan—ia bermaksud bersifat proaktif : menjangka masalah dan menyelesaikannya sebelum ia menjadi isu awa...
