Could hudud be a reality?

By Ding Jo-Ann

May 4, 2013

The BN attacks on PAS’s hudud agenda involve scaremongering of the worst kind. BN’s alarmist politics aside, can hudud law actually become a reality for Malaysians? And how likely is it that it will be implemented in the near future?

Yuna on being “Malay Malay”

By Koh Lay Chin

November 29, 2010

SHE is a law graduate and co-owns a clothes boutique. But Yunalis Zarai, who is more popularly recognised as just Yuna, is better known as the current darling of Malaysia’s independent music scene.

Chinese Malaysians in Galas

By Gan Pei Ling

November 8, 2010

ONE thing many were waiting to see from the recent Galas by-election was whether Chinese Malaysians would continue supporting Pakatan Rakyat (PR).

By Ding Jo-Ann

July 19, 2010

THE last general election birthed a situation that was not common before 2008: the Barisan Nasional (BN) functioning as an opposition.

Malaysia, the model Muslim country

By Shanon Shah

March 26, 2010

Malaysia? BACK when he was deputy prime minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak pledged that Malaysia would become “a role model to the Islamic world”. He said this in the middle of the 2009 Kuala Terengganu by-election, which Najib’s Barisan Nasional (BN) eventually lost to Pakatan Rakyat (PR). Najib’s pledge was poetic, since a “role model” […]

Examining Kelantan’s oil royalty woes

By Ding Jo-Ann

December 14, 2009

THE tussle over whether Kelantan should be paid oil royalty is yet another example of politicians’ partisan childishness in their public discussion of issues. Instead of laying out the facts and law objectively and comprehensively, our politicians seem more focused on outdoing each other, leaving the public in a haze of rhetoric and factional discourse. […]
