Release the Report: Secrecy Is Evasion! -- Charles Santiago. 31 March 2026 Malaysiakini's report referencing Bloomberg is not some trivial bureaucratic document. Instead, it concerns serious allegations that findings into the shareholdings controversy involving MACC chief Azam Baki were withheld from the public under the orders of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Citing unnamed sources, there are claims that key individuals were asked to delay releasing the probe's outcome. This is precisely the kind of information that, in any functioning democracy, must be subjected to immediate and transparent public scrutiny. What we are witnessing instead is a familiar and deeply corrosive pattern: opacity justified by silence, and silence defended by power. If the report exists, and multiple credible sources suggest it does, then withholding it is not administrative caution; it is political obstruction. There is no intellectually honest argument for keeping findings of this magni...

https://www.malaysiakini.com/columns/770816 COMMENT | The only religions that need defending are non-Muslim faiths S Thayaparan Published:  Mar 23, 2026 7:00 AM ⋅ Updated: 2:49 PM "Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do." - Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century COMMENT | There is this old Buddhist shrine on the roadside in a sometimes quiet but often bustling suburb in Petaling Jaya. It has been there for decades. Nobody really knows who built it. For decades in this racially diverse neighbourhood, the roadside shrine had endured. School children passed by it on their way to and from school. Adults drove past it on their way to work and on the drive back. ADS There was nothing extraor...

WAKE UP MALAYSIA – Our Survival Is Already Bleeding Out While We Fight Over Race & Religion WAKE UP, MALAYSIA! Why are we taking our survival for granted? The war and chaos in the Middle East is not some distant news headline — it is already strangling our nation's lifeline. Every day we waste bickering, our future grows darker. Why are we STILL obsessed with politics, race, and religion? Why are we STILL tearing each other apart while the real storm is at our door? When the crisis truly hits, it will NOT care if you are Malay, Chinese, Indian, Kadazan, Iban or anything else. Your child will cry from hunger the same way. Your family will queue for water the same way. Your parents will suffer without medicine the same way. We will bleed together — or we will wake up together. Open your eyes to the truth: Diesel shortages have already struck parts of Johor — pumps running dry, trucks stalled, chaos beginning. SPAN has issued a dire warnin...

Allow me to enlighten readers about who exactly is the "founder" of Kualan Lumpur based upon authoritative sources. The Mandailing nobleman, who according to Prof Emeritus Tan Sri Dr Khoo Kay Kim, is the founder of Kuala Lumpur is Sutan Puasa, and not Sultan Puasa. Additionally, it has to be clarified that Sutan Puasa had no authority to sanction (i.e. provide official approval) the appointment of each Kapitan Cina although his support was sought and deemed important in the said appointment. The authority to officially appoint the Kapitan Cina of Kuala Lumpur was vested either in the Malay district chief of Klang or the ruler of Selangor himself. According to J. M. Gullick, Hiu Siew obtained recognition as the first Kapitan Cina of Kuala Lumpur from the Malay chief of Klang with the ...

"The Three Sisters of the South Seas" Once upon a time, there were three island sisters — Sabah, Sarawak, and Singapore — living peacefully under the watch of a distant guardian called Britannia. Though the guardian was strict, she kept them clothed, fed, and mostly safe nfrom the tempests that raged in the wider world. One day, the guardian grew weary of her duty and announced, "My dear girls, it is time you stand on your own feet. But first, you shall marry." The sisters looked at each other, puzzled. "Marry whom?" they asked. A suitor appeared — Malaya — tall, ambitious, and eager to expand his household. He promised: "With me, you will share equal love, equal say, equal rights. I can marry four but will settle for just three.Together, we will be stronger than the storms." The girls were unsure and looked towards Britannia. They were told they could only marry if they signed a grand Prenuptial Agreement, calle...

https://www.facebook.com/share/18SsxpAY75/?mibextid=wwXIfr ORANG ASLI NOT THE 'RAKYAT ASAL TANAH MELAYU' IN SCHOOL HISTORY BOOK . Ranjit Singh Malhi 14 March 2026 . The Orang Asli have virtually disappeared from the current Malaysian secondary school history textbooks. Not a single reference is made to them as the indigenous people or the "first people" of Peninsular Malaysia. Yet, in the 2019 Form Four History textbook, the Malays are described as "rakyat asal Tanah Melayu". To me, this omission of a fundamental historical truth amounts to nothing less than an "intellectual crime". Earlier generations of Malaysian history textbooks acknowledged the Orang Asli with honesty and respect, providing students with a proper account of their presence and recognising them as the "penduduk asal Tanah Melayu". . Such a glaring omission cannot be allowed to pass silently. In an effort to restore balance and historical integrity,...

Some released Hamas prisoners are relocating to South-east Asia, raising security concerns | The Straits Times Some released Hamas prisoners are relocating to South-east Asia, raising security concerns straitstimes.com/opinion/some-released-hamas-prisoners-are-relocating-to-southeast-asia-raising- security-concerns March 13, 2026 As part of the Gaza peace plan and an earlier Israel-Hamas ceasefire brokered in January 2025, thousands of Palestinian prisoners have been released from Israeli prisons. Among them were several hundred who were not permitted to return to Gaza or the West Bank because of their involvement in attacks against Israelis. Some of these militants have instead been relocated to third countries. Malaysia is among them: 15 former prisoners have reportedly been resettled there. Little is publicly known about these individuals beyond their alleged links to Hamas and past involvement in terrorist plots. According to reports, one was part of...

So here goes: "' *Malaysia's Decline Is Not Accidental* _It Is Structurally Engineered_ _By Design, Not by Chance_ Malaysia's stagnation is often blamed on weak governments, poor leadership, global headwinds, or foreign interference. These explanations are comforting because they are temporary. Change the leaders, adjust policy, wait for better times and things will improve. That belief is false. Malaysia's real crisis is not cyclical. It is *structural*. And structures do not heal themselves. *The Fatal Contradiction at the Heart of the Nation* At the core of Malaysia's decline lies a single, devastating contradiction: *The group that contributes the most to the economy is denied power, protection, and future .The group with the lowest productivity is granted political dominance and determines national direction.* No modern nation has survived such an arrangement. History is unequivocal on this point. This is not a moral judge...

https://www.facebook.com/share/19vMP5PCNv/?mibextid=wwXIfr THIS is perhaps more relevant to Chinese Malaysians – both the older generation and those with Chinese education background – who have been accused of being unpatriotic and often told to "balik Tongsan" (return to China) for their poor command of the national language. On the other extreme, those who are fluent in Bahasa Melayu/Malaysia (BM) are viewed with suspicion – as if they are trying to trick or con the Malays. Both scenarios have led a dumbfounded licenced counsellor to wonder what actually is expected of non-Malays insofar as BM proficiency is concerned. "So, now non-Malays can't speak BM?" wondered Ann Wong who is also a digital creator in a Facebook post. "Didn't they just get angry that day, lambasting that every Malaysian citizen regardless of race so long as they're Malaysians, must speak BM – the official language of Malaysia?" Her poser une question came on ...

(English & Bahasa Malaysia] JOINT PRESS RELEASE: 24 CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANISATIONS DEMAND PRIME MINISTER HONOUR REFORM PROMISES AND UPHOLD ORANG ASLI RIGHTS TO LAND 21 February 2026 - We, the undersigned civil society organisations and individuals, are deeply concerned by reports that, within a single month, several Orang Asli communities across Peninsular Malaysia have faced eviction, harassment, police arrests, sudden unannounced developments, and the removal of anti-logging blockades by authorities: ● ● ● ● In January 2026, it was reported that 51 residents, of 14 families, comprising an Orang Asli settlement in Bukit Bauk Forest Reserve in Dungun, Terengganu were facing eviction from their land by the State Government to make way for a religious education institution. While reports claimed that the community had only resided on the land since 2016, checks have found that the land formed part of the traditional customary land of the Orang Asli who ...

Cabinet must meet immediately & direct the withdrawal  of  the PM's directive for 'cleaning-up' of 'illegal' temples   Ambiga   Sreenevasan  &  N  Surendran 15 February 2026   The concept of MADANI includes respect, trust and compassion. Yet there was nothing " Madani " about the recent "directive" issued by the Prime Minister in respect of purported 'illegal' temples and the order issued to local councils to remove them. This directive was unprecedented and has sent shock-waves.   For starters, only a court can declare with finality that a temple is occupying land illegally, and a court order is required before it can be demolished. And in no circumstances can temple management be labelled trespassers and police action taken against them. Neither does the argument hold water, that if it's on private land, vigilantism or self-help is allowed. If that were the case, it means if an assault or other criminal offence occurs on pri...

https://www.facebook.com/share/1C47EsiDGW/?mibextid=wwXIfr *From Prof James Chin* Let's be honest: I don't think MAS truly hates all Chinese people. He (and many in UMNO, Bersatu, and PAS) only dislike those Chinese who refuse to accept their "place" under KMI. They're fine with Chinese Malaysians; as long as they stay "second-class" and don't challenge Malay supremacy. This is the real root of racism in Malaysia. It's not just blind hatred based on race; it's a strict racial and religious hierarchy where Malays/Islam are at the top. KMI followers defend KMI fiercely because it brings them real benefits: economic perks, political power, and social status. The government has supported this system for over 50 years, so many Malays now see these privileges as their birthright. People like MAS know KMI is rooted in racism and bigotry, but it's also their most powerful political tool to win political office. KJ and MAS come from the s...

YBAM Urges Respect for Federal Court Rulings: Conversion of Minors Must Require Consent of Both Parents The Young Buddhist Association of Malaysia (YBAM) expresses its regret over the position taken by the Attorney General's Chambers in the recent case involving Indira Gandhi, together with 13 others, who are challenging provisions in several state enactments that permit the unilateral conversion of minor children. As early as 2018, the Federal Court, in its judgment on the Indira Gandhi custody case, clearly ruled that the unilateral conversion of her children without the mother's consent was invalid. YBAM maintains that the best interests and overall welfare of minor children must be the paramount consideration in all such matters. Under the Federal Constitution, both father and mother enjoy equal legal rights with respect to the guardianship and education of their children. Only when consensus is reached by both father and mother can a child's religious freedom,...
