I truly wish Malaysia step up it's game.", "comments": [["We don't have the habit of preserving our culture and history as a society unfortunately. Agree with you that our museums are really bad, doesn't inspire and feel \"museum\" enough\nOnly one I'd say that feels contemporary enough to be an actual museum in Peninsula is probably the Bank Negara Museum. Otherwise the newly opened Borneo museum on Kuching is also up there!Been to the bank negara museum, can confirm it's quite good\nThat said, maybe I'm biased but the old Kuching museum has a certain charm to it, but yes it's not up to par with more modern museums", "I think the comment above was referring to the newly opened Borneo Cultures Museum in Kch, it\u2019s world class!", "Yes, I am aware, but I have never been to the new one since leaving Malaysia.

Not that this is important, I\u2019m not Muslim myself but have visited this museum multiple times.\nBonus. Its a great place for dates!i see you JAKIM :26562:Singaporean here - I just went to bank Negara museum and several days ago and gotta say that my kids did have fun. But plenty of interactive stuff broke/wasn\u2019t working so that\u2019s a huge bummer for my kidsMostly my opinion:\nMalaysia, through most of its history, stone construction has not been the norm. Mostly the locals use wood. So we don't have lots of preserved indigenous artifacts beyond a few hundred years. On top of that, much of Malaysia's ancient history is oral and tribal. Much of it has probably been lost. There is a relative lack of things like Buddhist, Muslim or Hindu constructions that are very old unlike say Thailand, India, Vietnam and China.\nOn top of that Malaysia has a history of \ culture going back in history. Arab traders bringing Muslim religion and language. The Indians and Chinese too. Then came the waves of Western colonialists. In this sense, Malaysia has been a \ being at the center of many sea trade routes.\nEven things we consider \ in Malaysia like the royalties etc appear to borrow heavily from traditions that are not indigenous. (Sultan, for example, is an arabic term) The Majapahit empire, for example, is Javanese-Hindu and is not centered around the current political boundaries of Malaysia. Then there is the influence from Thailand that is primarily Buddhist.\nIn a sense, this doesn't blend well with the current political ruling class that like to craft a narrative that Malaysia as predominantly Muslim and thus being Muslim is somehow central to Malaysia's past. History would point out a much richer and more diverse origins of Malaysian tradition and culture but this is actually quite politically inconvenient.\nThis probably disconnects many Malaysians from things going back more than a few generations. This is probably reflected in the academics as well as how things get curated in museums.You're not lying. There is literally an UMNO Museum In Melaka, literally at the historical area below A Famosa and with the other museums.", "I went there earlier this month and that particular museum is probably not gonna last that much longer. I would be suprised if it still exist beyond 2024.", "Why? Genuinely curious", "2nd floor isn't open to public, not that it has anything good anyways. And I was the only person who went there for the day (as of 3pm based on the logbook). Also no more aircond, which is a sure sign they are dying.Ah i see. When I was in melaka a few years back I was there and wanted to enter but it was closed hahahAnd we also have to contend with the fact each state museum wants to house their own artefacts (which Malaysia in general has very limited amount to begin with). The State Museums sometimes have much better artefact collections than the National Museum.\nAnd ofc, there's also the obvious issue of funding. Malaysian Museums in general (rightfully) have very low admission fee. A lot of them you don't have to pay a single cent.Wish I can upvote you twice. Super trueMan. I want to print this out and just hand it out to people. Multi-purpose answer for most Malaysia FAQsThis is the right answer.This I believe is the real reason. Politics and religion.Hopefully this could improve sooner than later.\nThe one in Kuching, Borneo Cultures Museum is amazing though. If you like museums, I think its worth a visit when you do visit Kuching. Being the newest built 'big' museum really do wonders. The facility inside is nice, clean and modern. I don't really have an eye for architecture, but from the looks of it, the architecture of the building itself is well designed as well. Could spend an entire day there if you actually go through the exhibits slowly and read through everything.", "i really love this museum too. i went there during their spirit showcase (im not sure if it's permanent or not). the vibe is amazing, the showcase is amazing, the layout inside is amazing, the interactive showcase is amazing as well. 10/10 would recommend.\nalso i went to islamic arts museum in kl couple months ago. while it's not as amazing as sarawak and has no interactive feature, the paintings and items on showcase are quite a curious sight to see too.\nand perhaps you might want to take your kids to klcc petrosains and planetarium kl if they're into interactive museums. my kids love those a lot.I can vouch for this. There's a lot of heart put into it, it's modern(as of right now), the museum is very interactive, there's a merchandise store, it's a good tourist attraction, the entrance fee is also pretty cheap. I spent like 4 hours there reading and going through every artifacts and taking tons and tons of pictures. Sadly, I didn't get to experience the last floor entirely because the museum was about to close. I will definitely go there again in the future. It's a good family visit too however children tend to get bored easily but even then, there is an interactive section, made for kids (and fun loving adults) so even kids would love the experience.\nIf you're visiting Kuching, make sure to go there. It's genuinely a good museum and the largest one in Malaysia too.The State Museums are all generally very good. Perak Museum, Kota Tinggi Museum, Stadhuys (and the museums surrounding it), Seri Menanti Museum, and so on.I would say have you visited our museum in the late 80's or early 90's it would be a lot more interesting. I remember a room full of weapon relics like keris of all shape and sizes, musket and pistols used by the British army when they colonized our country, as well as a replica of tin mining ship the size of a car. Another fond memory I had was the longest rotan found in the jungle of Malaysia, it was like 400 meters long (I think lol), they fixate it on the ceiling of the showcase and have it looped around the room several dozen times to fit its massive length.\nVisited the museum again with an Australian friend like 15 years ago, that time the museum is already fallen into a sorry state. The room full of keris shrunk into a single cabinet, most showrooms are basically empty. Such a sad fate for a place that holds the many amazing things in the past.Yeah, all thanks to the legendary head curator, the late Shahrum Yub back then - he really has the passion to do his job. Read his interview once in Mastika about how his team handled the tomb of King Tut for \ and it already make me go wow. Those period was the peak of National Museum.\nIt takes both the leaders passion and the gov passion to return it in similar state again, which per current Malaysia gov standard...uhhhhh......The Islamic arts museum is REALLY good. Serious kudos to the management there. Highly recommend. But yeah Muzium Negara was so sad.Agree. Very comparable to the one I\u2019ve been to overseas.I love the Islamic Arts Museum. Easily one of my favourite museums of anywhere I've visited.", "And cheap too! RM7 for the permanent exhibit and RM4-6 for the rotational one. They're also the only centre for restoration in Semenanjung. Most museums use them for repairs and restoration. They also used to have art classes like calligraphy.The Borneos Culture Museum in Kuching is pretty good. Went there last year and thoroughly enjoyed myself.Many of the muzeums here were old and wasn't kept up with the latest technology. If you have the time, pleaee visit the relatively newly built Borneo Museum in Kuching, Sarawak. Some people say that it's even better than Muzium NegaraUnderfunded. Im guessing the only budget they get is for staff, electricity, water and keeping the place clean. Nothing more.Yep underfunded and most of the history stuffs are under appreciated as well in Malaysia.Let's normalise not saying \"stuffs\" folks"], ["When I went to the National Art Gallery in Malaysia, I couldn't help but imagine some government bureaucrat saying, \ and so they came up with a really poor, half-assed imitation of a Western art museum.\nWhen I went to the Islamic Arts Museum I had the opposite impression. I felt like the backers authentically cared about showcasing the diversity of Muslim cultures around the world and through history and did something impressive.\nSmaller local museums similarly fall into two camps. There are some real hidden gems in different parts of the country, but then there are some pathetic misses.I was at Islamic Art museum yesterday with my foreign friend. I was blown away cos it\u2019s a world class standard and he really liked it too.Imo it\u2019s because Malaysian don\u2019t view Museums as interesting or a tourist attraction. Most Malaysians view museums as boring and only for history. The best Museum I\u2019ve been to is the National History Museum in London.

They therefore tend to be very well established and appreciated in areas of the world where there is a strong sense of connecting past, present and future together to inform society.\nMalaysia as a whole is not very interested in its past except in niche scenarios ( like most Penangnite who are Chinese or Indians are very interested in Penang history from the early 17th century onwards ). Malaysia is more interested in ethnic identification, which may mean one is interested in looking at the past except in the case of Malaysia the ethnic identification is a legal entity as well so it becomes more a focus on the present and less about the past.\nAs a result, museums become less important. Cultural things of the current becomes more important, such as existing festivals and rituals ( it does not need the past to be valid ).", "Chat GPT ah bro \ud83d\ude02"], ["Because it didn't match with our Arab descendant narrative.Why bother with museums when you can see real-life dinosaurs roaming around us in daily life.\nIt's pretty easy to spot them really, they're the ones shouting ketuanan melayu.I always thought muzium is very boring since I'm grow up in Malaysia, until one day i step into taiwan muzium."], ["Probably because we don't have a lot to preserve lmao.

How ?!!!!\nAs per you mention, Chinese owned business is the core of Malaysian economy. How can a group of people that have these kind of success still thinks that thy are being treated worst that blacks American in America where they have been systematically put in poverty and at one point slaves by the American whites ?\nThis is why I hate people like you ! Yes here there\u2019s racism in Malaysia. no one can deny it but for you to belittle the hardship of black Americans it\u2019s craaazyyyy to me !!! Nuts !Yes, non bumis are openly discriminated in Malaysia and that is an ugly fact. From Education to Businessses. It's not a country based on meritocracy. Listen, I know of non bumis with Straight As and denied entries to do medicine in local Unis but for Bumis, they could get in with lesser grades. Government scholarships given to Bumis with lesser grades than Non Bumis ( straight As) despite the non bumis parents being hawkers... wtf.\nI dont think I said anything to belittle the hardship of black Americans. Black Americans do have a louder voice in the US than the Chinese in Malaysia. Blacks face hardships due to their own work and home culture and attitudes. So u r jumping to wrong conclusions.\nI don't have data to prove that Chinese owned companies are the core of the Malaysian economy today considering many Bumi enterprises are also very large but the Chinese entrepreneurs in 70s to 90s did help build the economy. Unfortunately the Malaysian Govt does not want to give credit to them.they are constantly told to thank the Malays?? Pfft...for what? Only in Malaysia do u have Malay dominated politicians openly threatening another race. Do u think the white Americans can say \ . Even South Africa does not behave like Malaysia..pls go get ur facts right.\nMalaysia is a sad state with a divisive Govt for the past 30 yrs. A truly none progressive mindset, esp the politics and Govt.\nMalaysia would be a far more progressive country if the government stopped it's racial politics. A country so rich in natural resources but poorly developed local talent due to racial politics and discrimination is the cause of Malaysia's poor economy and quality of life. The problem is u have this small elite group of Malays who wants control of the Malays to win elections. I don't have the data but only a small elite group of Malays are reaping the rewards but more than 60pct of them are struggling financially.

All races should work together and push the entire nation forward. It's frustrating for non bumis to be constantly told they don't belong to Malaysia when all they know is about Malaysia. Racism is toxic and will never go away but the government should not openly use it as a tool to win votes and constantly poison the minds of Bumis that Chinese are a threat to the Bumis existence. The Chinese are not interested in taking any privileges from the Malays. They just want to earn a decent living for their families. The Govt should stop sowing hate into the minds of Malays that Chinese are a threat..it just builds this distrust amongst races. I agree that not all Malays are racist but many view non bumis as trying to take things away from them.\nIt's just disheartening to see a country with so much resources and talent to be in this state.If I'm malay why would I ever want it to change. I'm a privalaged race. My local politicians and religious leaders remind me everyday that I'm the superior race and everyone else is beneath me. I get free handouts in terms of welfare and bumi discounts. If I get an income of only 3k rm I am very contented. I daily look at religious and propaganda tiktok and FB telling me all the bad things other races are trying to sabotage us and they will be our downfall. While at the same time coming into major liberal cities looking for work under Chinese bosses and do gigs treating it as a full time job. Also under the management of other races. Then have to also rent from nons as well but quietly curse them inside of being a non halal abode.\nI do not ever see this nation progressing ever in the next coming century even. We are only a step or crisis away from regressing into a total taliban like Islamic state. Don't have to look far. ACEH is a good example. If tht ever comes to happen. Malaysia is gone. Malay conservatives won. All nons would desert Malaysia in droves and any hope of Malaysia ever developing into a 1st world state is gone while other aswan countries overtake us and our main import then will be security guards and maids.Haha this guy is the supreme ultra malay tuan tanah, no use arguing with himThe Chinese are treated far worse than the blacks in the US\nExcuse you? Call us woke for knowing of their slavery and in 2023, blacks still get SHOT, LYNCHED for existing. It feels good to be in control by putting another race down, doesn't it? We're not the ones being randomly stopped by the street for 'spot checks' or followed around in stores as if we're stealing.\nNo one is ignoring your first paragraph, but you really sound like an All Lives Matter apologist. \"I hate everyone equally!\"", "That's coz blacks have a higher risk of killing others due to their historical crime track record..it's unfortunate but black youths have given themselves that reputation.

Since 2018, no coalition nor party has that golden number.\nSo expect a shaky government for the next election cycle or two.Until a single party or single coalition has a simple majority.\nI don't think so. Best counter-example:\nIn 1986 GE7, UMNO wins a massive super-majority with 74% of all MPs.\nIn 1988, UMNO creates a fucking Constitutional Crisis.\nA single party winning a majority is not enough in Malaysia anymore. It is pure and basic institutional reforms. That will create a stable gov't.simple majority\nWrong. Larger majority. Don't need to be 2/3rds, but enough that some frogs won't topple them.Not even. Even \u00be majority didn't prevent UMNO's 1988 Constitutional Crisis.\nPoliticians will fucking politic, no matter the majority.Here we go againThis ain't madagascar, but they sure like the song."], ["Expected Tun M Cronies' relationship with Sultan Johor is shaky (In Blood War)\nMore to come as everyone runs for their lives.:26554:Guess you could say they like to move it move it, you like to move it move it, we like to?

Fat chance they can out buy the sitting Gov's counter offer.Nope. No need. The constitution only states the PM needs the majority of parliament. Theres 2 ways to determine it\n1) as you said, motion of confidence\n2) the passing of laws\nThe passing of laws require a simple majority. A law not passed means dont have a simple majority.\nJust like what happened to muhyiddin. The reason he avoid having a parliament sitting is because if a law is not passed, then he has to step down. A motion of confidence or no confidence can be blocked by the speaker. If motion of no confidence is the only way, then theres no way to remove a sitting PM.Council of rulers and Agong can give their say but he still need to a point someone who get majority in the parliament unless he want hang governmentI wonder if its a constitution crisis if the YDPA wanna play games and keep VETOing PM selection from the party that pisses him off.\nCan he do that? Constitution sifu clarification welcomed.\nThat'll be very funny to see.\nI mean very terrible, so please don't do that:26554:Current Agong step down early and give the responsibility to the new Agong ie Sultan Johor, GG???That will make the old man's head pop off, and spill another Facebook/Twitter rant tornado.\nActually, that would be funnier.

U know what is the bill about? That wont happen already. No reason for the King to overthrow a working governmentIf I were not mistaken, they hatched this plan while YDPA was at Dubai for the UN Climate Change ConferenceWith covid and banjir now, this is their main focus wth. And they want to convince us that they are capable of running this country?They were never interested with running the country, they just want to run the moneynext lancau moveThis is democracy.

titleThe Public Finance and Fiscal Responsibility Act 2023 has been gazetted and will take effect on 1st Jan 2024href/r/malaysia/comments/18ubhwo/the_public_finance_and_fiscal_responsibility_act/num_commentflairlabelEconomy & FinanceheadercommentsSummary of this Act:\nThis law will mandate the government to issue multiple different financial or economic reports annually and every 3 or 5 years and table them in the Parliament. The Minister of Finance has the responsibility to formulate several fiscal and economical policies and ensure they are adhered to by other government entities.\nIf any factors derail the economic development or financial stability of Malaysia, or if an entity's debt that is guaranteed by the government is about to default, the government need to table a contigency plan or solution to the Parliament or House of Representatives (Dewan Rakyat).\nThis law also mandated the government to spend at least 3% of our GDP on development expenditure and to keep the national budget deficit to be not larger than -3% of our GDP. Under this law, the government will also need to keep the national government debt to be lower than 60% of our GDP.\nFailure to keep aforementioned policies and criteria will mandate the government to answer to the Parliament.\nHowever, this not cause a change in government or a government shutdown like in the US if the Parliament decided to not approve the contingency/mitigation plan formulated by the government.\nThis is because the law only said \"If the fiscal adjustment plan is not approved, the House of Representatives may pass a resolution to require the Minister to improve the fiscal adjustment plan to be laid in the House of Representatives as soon as practicable\"", "A simple question. Do all the different government departments publish their financial reports every year?"], ["The whole Act can be accessed here:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-detail.php?act=850&lang=BI&date=29-12-2023#timeline\nPDF version:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/ilims/upload/portal/akta/outputaktap/1946989_BI/WJW23%EF%80%A21340%20BI.pdf\nThis whole Act, except section 37 and 38, will come into force on 1st of January 2024:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-view.php?type=pub&language=BI&no=P.U.%20(B)%20584/2023%20584/2023)\nThe Prime Minister, with the YDPA power delegated to him, has prescribe the authoritative text of this Act and its subsidiary legislation shall be in English:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-view.php?type=pub&language=BI&no=P.U.%20(B)%20585/2023%20585/2023)"], ["Thank you OP:26561:"], ["Any other countries doing this? Any chance the info able to identify scum moves like 1MDB buying land from government and selling it back with inflated price?"], ["\ud83d\udca9\nDSAI: Reee one person cannot hold both PM and Finance Minister portfolio.\nMadanon: Anyways.", "Anwar wrested some of Finance Minister\u2019s powers by instituting this Act, and it took him less than a year to introduce the bill. Did any previous Finance Minister make the effort to propose the law?", "Is that a rhetorical question? The point he made about FM and PM not being held by one person over the years meant nothing?\nYou're saying if he didn't hold both of the portfolio or someone else had it, there's zero chance of reform or new laws being enacted. I suppose we could always look at the dark days of the first PH government under Tun. Maybe the PM should always hold the Finance Minister post in perpetuity.I understand if you are disappointed with this.\nFor now, please be assured that Anwar has done major reforms in the ministries that he personally oversees. For the Finance Ministry, which is an indispensable ministry that handles the country\u2019s Treasury and is currently facing fiscal constraints, Anwar has introduced this Fiscal Responsibility Act and stipulated that all government procurement processes must be done through open tender. For the Prime Minister\u2019s Office, he has instructed to start working on separating the powers between the Attorney General and the Deputy Public Prosecutor.\nThere is also now a Second Finance Minister to take a more hands-on role in the ministry.Hindsight is 20/20. Of course we are hopeful for proposed changes, and it would take awhile to see their effects. Let's hope for the best for now :29091::29091::29091:", "Do I think it's rather hypocritical yes,but judging by current political situation , is it a necessity? Imo Yes.I mean who else would you suggest to be finance minister instead.\nIt has to be someone from PKR and someone who can keep power dynamic balance. Especially when UMNO is in the team.yes,but judging by current political situation , is it a necessity? Imo Yes.I mean who else would you suggest to be finance minister instead.\nwhat current political situation and why is it a necessity? |
