🇲🇾🇺🇸👉 Malaysia Rejected Blinken To His Face: Don’t Tell Us What To do!
Malaysian PM Anwar Ibrahim boldly stood up to U.S. pressure, making it clear that #Malaysia won’t be bullied into cutting ties with Russia. During the #ASEAN Summit, Anwar told U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to his face, “We’re a sovereign nation; don’t tell us what to do.” This firm response underscores Malaysia’s commitment to an independent foreign policy, guided by national interests rather than succumbing to U.S. dictates.
While the U.S. preaches democracy and freedom, its actions tell a different story. #Blinken’s attempt to dictate Malaysia’s relationships is another example of America’s “do as I say, not as I do” approach. Instead of fostering genuine partnerships, the U.S. often tries to strong-arm countries into picking sides in its rivalry with Russia and China. This tactic has only alienated allies and fueled resentment, especially in the Global South, where nations are tired of being forced into Western-led blocs.
Anwar’s commitment to balanced diplomacy shines through. Malaysia is focused on economic growth, regional stability and fair relations with all, including #China and Russia. It’s not about picking sides; it’s about building a multipolar world where countries aren’t pawns in superpower games. As Anwar pointed out, Malaysia will engage with major powers like the U.S., China and #Russia alike to uplift its people, not bend to foreign pressures.
Malaysia’s interest in joining #BRICS further emphasises its pursuit of independent, non-aligned partnerships. Anwar’s decision reflects a broader movement in the Global South, where nations are forming alliances based on mutual respect and cooperation, not coercion.
In the Middle East, Anwar also challenged the U.S. double standards, pointing out Western hypocrisy: when Israel attacks, the #US. urges restraint, but when there’s talk of retaliation, it warns countries like Iran. This selective stance exposes the lack of true commitment to justice and humanity in American foreign policy.
Malaysia’s example is a reminder that true diplomacy respects sovereignty and promotes fair partnerships, not bullying. Anwar’s stand represents a powerful call for a new, balanced global order where smaller nations have the freedom to act in their own best interests. 🌏
@malaysiakini PMX only takes his monthly income and allowances as MOF and a member of Parliament.
He is not a greedy and extravagent person unlike all bloody PN members of Parliament.
As PMX, he is willing to undergo and not to receive his monthly salary as a PM since taking over office!
@malaysiakini PMX hanya ambil gaji dan elaun bulanan sbgai Menteri Kewangan dan Ahli Parlimen. Dia tak tamak dan tak boros macam semua ahli-ahli Pembangkang Laknatullah. Dia sanggup korbankan dan tak perlukan gaji sbgai seorg Perdana Menteri, demi rakyat Malaysia.
Lah. Siapa pula yg cakap Malaysia je pkp ni? Tapi masa itu kelakar. Rakyat kena pkp, menteri makan durian, pi rentas datang kenduri kahwin. Negara lain kena juga pkp, tapi parlimen tetap jalan. Malaysia pula, habis tutup parlimen sampai kepung habis bangunan parlimen dgan fru😂
Press Release by BERSIH
2 August 2024
BERSIH responds to Minister Fahmi Fadzil
The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (BERSIH) responds to Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil who singled out BERSIH for absence at a stakeholder engagement held by the ministry on 15 July 2024. For the record, BERSIH is a coalition of 70 NGOs; while the BERSIH leadership were in a solidarity walk with Teoh Beng Hock’s family on the day of the meeting, our member partners such as the Centre for Independent Journalism (CIJ) attended the session and provided extensive input and recommendations for:
1) Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to consider alternative models to regulate scams, cyberbulling, etc instead of social media licensing. There are policies to be studied from elsewhere, such as Australia where efforts are made to compel banks to be responsible, including reimburse scam victims.
2) More in-depth negotiation or consultation especially with CSOs to be held, particularly in drafting the Code of Conduct for Social Media. CIJ has also suggested that a committee be formed with CSOs, other experts, and representatives of social media companies to study the Code of Conduct so as to avoid a 'top down approach' that ultimately fails in implementation.
We are disappointed that the minister's office has chosen to distract from this pertinent matter by ridiculing and discrediting the many NGOs and even government institutions that did not attend their engagement – the first time a ministry has done this in our years of engagement with any government. We seek the professionalism and competence of the minister and his office to enhance engagement efforts by including many other stakeholders outside the invited list who have a stake in this issue and the right to question the government’s position.
We remind the minister that Malaysia made worldwide news when the popular blogging website https://t.co/qSUKfBROAn was blocked in the country in 2016 due to a perceived “politically controversial” article published by the Sarawak Report. The article allegedly exposed corruption, prompting the MCMC to issue a takedown notice to Medium. What are the safeguards under this new licensing proposition that can guarantee the prevention of a similar course of action under the watch of the minister or his office? We are concerned for the further erosion of our already precarious state of freedom of expression. We also remind the government that Malaysia's ranking dropped 34 places in the latest press freedom index. Regulation overreach on social media could possibly worsen our ranking.
The Unity Government has not displayed any conviction or commitment to repealing or even amending the Sedition Act, the Printing Presses and Publication Act, and the MCMC Act -- instead, the administration seems more keen to introduce legislation that further regulates speech and expression. Citizens are rightfully alarmed in our view – and we have not forgotten manifesto promises to repeal such regressive laws.
Quoting the minister: “Banyak komen daripada mereka tapi apabila dijemput untuk berikan pandangan dan bertanyakan soalan, kelibat mereka langsung tidak kelihatan,” we hereby invite the minister to a public forum organized by BERSIH to open the space to the rakyat and discuss the matter publicly, critically, and professionally. We look forward to hearing what dates work for the minister.
