The bullying must stop
A university meant to produce disciplined officers is again embroiled in a case of assault on juniors, and the people in charge must answer for that. But bullying is not just on campus, it is prevalent in society too.
Missing the heartbeat of a nation
While most national media listen to so-called experts and politicians on how elections shape up, they often miss the people who really matter – the common folk. It’s a mistake the US media recently made, and one that some of us in the Malaysian media have also been guilty of.
Face it – social media platforms aren’t special
They make big money, act arbitrarily, and provide space where criminals can operate freely. It’s time social media platforms show social responsibility too.
Making a circus of religion
Chest-thumping about religion and all-male carnivals may help PAS and Umno firebrands win Malay votes, but it will not make them true Malaysian leaders.
Axing the dud Datuks
Fake titles are growing more common in the country, with even a fake king being installed recently. This needs to be nipped in the bud.
Silver state can still find its lustre
With its unique small town charm, Ipoh does not need bad, big city vibes. It just needs to sell its story better.
To be clean, all must get hands dirty
With Visit Malaysia Year 2026 around the corner, we need a clean, hygienic country to welcome the tourists. But keeping our streets and toilets clean must also be part of our own pride.
This lady is no customary boss
Malaysia’s first woman Customs chief Datuk Anis Rizana Mohd Zainudin shows that she is one extraordinary lady.
Wooing non-Malays with little to offer
PAS has finally realised that it cannot take over the Federal Government without support from non-Muslim voters. However, its plans to win them over seem strange, sometimes ludicrous.
Halal certs – do it tastefully
Halal certification makes perfect business sense in a country where the majority Muslim population is continuing to grow. But there is no need to force feed the certificates to non-Muslims.
Our unity – more than just a show
The National Day parade showed how Malaysians can come together as one. But there are divisive elements that need to be silenced.
