dari ChangkatNingkeBTP Nukilan ini diambil dari salah satu bab dalam buku ketiga saya "Nukilan πολιτικός" yang sedang dalam proses suntingan. Ia sebenarnya diadaptasi dari artikel yang disiarkan dalam SK Online pada 15 Januari 2011 menggunakan judul asal “ Perlunya ADIList dalam KEADILAN”. Walaupun ditulis pada tahun 2011, rasanya masih relevan ketika kita sedang memasuki gerbang tahun masihi 2013. Parti KEADILAN semakin berkembang. Lahirnya kerana reformasi dan demi untuk menegakkan keadilan. Tidak kiralah keadilan untuk siapa dan untuk apa. Ada yang kerana keadilan untuk Anwar. Ketika itu era reformasi pasca pemecatan dan penahanan mantan Timbalan Perdana Menteri. Teringat lagi waktu itu tag yang dipakai oleh anak-anak Anwar Ibrahim, “Justice For Papa”. Anak-anak muda malah yang merasa muda sengaja dan sedikit nakal menggunakan tag “Justice for Papa in Law”. Mungkin dek kerana suka-suka atau kerana meminati serta kagum dengan Nurul Izzah terutamanya waktu itu. Ada ya...

dari ChangkatNingkeBTP BRAVE NEW WORLD By AZMI SHAROM azmisharom@yahoo.co.uk There is a growing obsession with form over substance and nowhere is this more evident than in the unhealthy interest taken with university rankings. THIS month marks the 22nd year I have worked as an academic. In that time, I have seen many changes in the university. There have been, of course, some improvements since those early days. For one thing, technology has transformed things for the better. Let’s take a trip down memory lane.

dari ChangkatNingkeBTP Brave New World By AZMI SHAROM Impartiality is a simple word and many of our problems can be solved by just appreciating and practising this term. IMPARTIALITY is defined as being not biased for or against any party; free from favouritism or self interest. It is a fairly simple concept, one which I think most people would be able to understand. Of course, there are times when one is incapable of being impartial. If you support a particular team, you will consider your team as the greatest, despite all evidence to the contrary. Once I saw a banner at some dinky little football game with the words “Brighton Hove Albion: The Best Football Team in the World”. Really? Better than Barcelona? And where is Brighton Hove Albion anyway? It sounds like a brand of bread. “A loaf of Brighton Hove Albion please”.

dari ChangkatNingkeBTP By  Farish A Noor 5 September 2011 And so, for reasons that are both complex and irritating, the past is being dragged into the present yet again; while we Malaysians bury our heads in the sand and neglect the future. By now most of us will be familiar with yet another controversy-in-a-teacup that has grabbed the headlines: namely the question of whether the events that took place during the attack on the police outpost in Bukit Kepong ought to be remembered as a historic event in the Malayan struggle for independence. Unfortunately for all parties concerned it seems that the issue has been hijacked by politics and politicians yet again, as is wont to happen in Malaysia on a daily basis almost. More worrying still is how the manifold aspects of this event have been taken up selectively by different parties and actors to further their own arguments, while neglecting to look at the wider context against which the event took place. It is almost impossible t...

dari ChangkatNingkeBTP  Article by YB Dr Zul (MP Kuala Selangor) dated 31 Dec 2010 As the curtain draws to a close for the last year of the first decade in the third millennium, I wanted to just sit back and peruse the many edited writings and commentaries for my book “In Search of a Better Malaysia”. The indulgence was rather short-lived when it dawns on me that I have failed to provide any commentary on an equally troubling acrimonious debate that is raging dangerously in the nation. Yes, how could I miss that one?

The MCLM was an attempt to continue the struggle for reforms outside the political party platform and this was something we started six years ago (in 2004) and before there was even an opposition coalition called Pakatan Rakyat (which was formed four years later in 2008). THE CORRIDORS OF POWER Raja Petra Kamarudin The Star, Bernama, Utusan Malaysia and many Umno websites are going to town with the ‘news’ that I have turned my back on the opposition and am now whacking the opposition by saying that it is not fit to rule the country.

dari ChangkatNingkeBTP by Zakiah Koya, The Sun History textbooks are biased and littered with errors, claim two authors and academicians. Dr Ranjit Singh Malhi and Ng How Kuen, who writes history textbooks for Chinese schools, say their experience with officialdom does not augur well for the teaching of history in our classrooms. Ranjit, author of secondary school history textbooks since 1990, and adviser to the Ministry of Education (MOE) on history textbooks, said such material were littered with factual errors and distortions. He said that when he pointed out the errors and distortions, a ministry official labelled him “anti-national”.
