In Part 1 of this series, we confronted the horror, heartbreak, and public outrage following the recent cases of violence and school bullying here in Malaysia. In Part 2, we look beyond the grief — at the conversations, workshops, and quiet courage of teachers and parents trying to heal a wounded system. From the UNITAR–JPN mental-health session to real stories from classrooms and homes, this is where empathy meets action.
School bullying has long crossed the line from childish cruelty to a national crisis. As a mother of four sons — two of whom are neurodiverse — and as a journalist, I can no longer read these stories with newsroom detachment. Every headline feels like a wound. Tears flow when I am writing this.
One can gauge the power of a political party by two means: 1) Their success at elections; 2) The loyalty of the members. PKR seriously has issues with loyalty, if one were to look at the members who took a hike the last few years
As Sultan Ibrahim of Johor is installed, Malaysia is in a period of relative calm, with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim at the head of the unity government, and millions of supporters of former Prime Minister Najib Razak waiting for news of his release/pardon from prison
Represented by his lawyer, Najib sent letters to Multimedia and Communication Minister as well as to the Commission, urging them to order Netflix to take down the documentary as it has elements of subjudice pertaining to ongoing case
Mahathir, in alleging that Sultan handed over power to the British, glossed over the colonial administration elevating river mouth dwelling toll collectors in Malaya as territorial rulers recognised by the English crown!
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim lost Cabinet Reshuffle opportunity for partyless Cabinet and government of national unity, winners take all, losers lose all!
Politics being numbers game remains increasingly less affected by the Malay vote bank, as Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN) live and fight another day, away from ethnic-based parties!
Pakatan Harapan (PH), Barisan Nasional (BN) and the Sabah and Sarawak coalitions would be out of the Anwar Ibrahim Unity Government, PAS lawmakers would enter after Cabinet Reshuffle as individuals!
If Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has his way, the Bersatu Party for one may be politically buried long before the leaders in court are fined and jailed, and jailed further in default on the fines!
There's no reason why former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, backed by 'siapa menang, kami sokong' (we support whoever wins) Sabah and Sarawak, cannot head list of candidates in Parliament for next premiership!
Agong can act on Pardon for former Prime Minister Najib Razak, with or without advice from Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, and without giving reasons!
