Every life has an impact on this world. She certainly did in mine. Special thoughts and heartfelt prayers are with her family during this time of sorrow. I shall greatly miss her... Our hearts are filled with sorrow.😢😢

An anonymous person emailed my firm email address personally just to express how unhappy he was with my opinion that UiTM should open up a one off course for 10 non bumi to resolve a severe shortage of cardiologists specialist doctors in Malaysia because he thinks we need Malay doctors only, amongst other weird statements you can read yourself 😂.
May you or your loved ones never get heart disease and needlessly die from the long surgery waiting list, like so many Malaysians for eg as narrated by Dr @abd_jabbar. Healthcare is a human issue, and I stand by my opinion, firmly, without fear or favour.
Universiti Teknologi Mara’s (UiTM) recent campaign against the potential intake of non-bumiputera students in certain courses is misguided, said rights group Pusat Komas.
While acknowledging UiTM's historical context of uplifting the bumiputera community, the NGO said maintaining bumiputera exclusivity in all programmes is not in line with the nation’s evolving needs.
“Malaysia is facing a critical shortage of specialists, particularly in fields like cardiothoracic surgery. This shortage affects all Malaysians,” it said in a statement today.

How can this be right? A police station attacked & 2 policemen killed and he says it’s under control, that his “database” is sufficient to manage the problem. What kind of home minister do we have?

1. EPF has announced that members below age 55 will have their accounts restructured into 3 accounts, from May 11, 2024.
Balances in Account 1 and Account 2 will remain in Akaun Persaraan and Akaun Sejahtera respectively, while Akaun Fleksibel will start with a zero balance.
Many people are saying the same thing. What happened to RR and NI since Nov 22? You should be twice as active in political work now that you are in Govt. So many people are hoping you can bring the Malay ground back to the middle. If you can't do it, then promote those who can. The majority of young Malays are attracted to the Moon. What are you waiting for?
This is an appeal from my friend Clare Rewcastle Brown.
Clare is the founder of Sarawak Report and their investigative journalism work contributed and resulted in the exposure of the 1MDB scandal. Her contribution to Malaysia, to say the least, is immense.

I really don't understand why this is even an issue in DAP. You are a mainstream party so behave like one. I have said many times, let your members accept titles if they are properly awarded. This stupid, holier-than-thou attitude is making you look foolish and petty.
Every Xmas we seem to be facing this problem. It looks like the petty bureaucrats are more powerful than the Minister. Do we need the Minister to intervene every December?
Or is it because DSAI has recently empowered JAKIM?
I have been hearing stories from my friends in KK that there is a problem getting a Xmas turkey from certain KK hotels because of halal issues as well.
First we had the carolling issue in Sarawak, then the turkey issue, now this. What is going on?
Called in for questioning simply for saying “the FC does not bar a non-Malay from being PM”? My gosh! What is happening to this country? Are we living in Stalin’s Russia now? Madani turning out to be just another Ketuanan Melayu outfit.

You now see why the far-right and extremists make threats. They are mostly anonymous. Even if they do not let me have my say, I still let them speak. Am I bothered by them? No, the more they criticize me for what I write, the more I realize that what I am saying must be true.
This is why I keep saying it is no longer possible to have a proper, open, discussion on Political Islam and its role in Malaysian society. These extremists take it as an attack on religion when it is about the role of religion in politics—something that is totally different. They do it on purpose so that you are on the defensive. It will not work on me, unfortunately.
