GOVERNMENT
Malaysia is a constitutional monarchy, nominally headed by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong ('paramount ruler'), customarily referred to as the king. Kings are elected for 5-year terms from among the nine sultans of the peninsular Malaysian states. The king also is the leader of the Islamic faith in Malaysia.
Executive power is vested in the cabinet led by the prime minister; the Malaysian constitution stipulates that the prime minister must be a member of the lower house of parliament who, in the opinion of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, commands a majority in parliament. The cabinet is chosen from among members of both houses of parliament and is responsible to that body.
The bicameral parliament consists of the Senate (Dewan Negara) and the House of Representatives (Dewan Rakyat). All 70 Senate members sit for 6-year terms; 26 are elected by the 13 state assemblies, and 44 are appointed by the king. Representatives of the House are elected from single-member districts by universal adult suffrage. The 219 members of the House of Representatives are elected to parliamentary terms lasting up to 5 years. Legislative power is divided between federal and state legislatures.
The Malaysian legal system is based on English common law. The Federal Court reviews decisions referred from the Court of Appeal; it has original jurisdiction in constitutional matters and in disputes between states or between the federal government and a state. Peninsular Malaysia and the East Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak each have a high court.

Human Rights Developments
In May, 50 Dalil Kenapa Anwar Tidak Boleh Jadi PM (50 Reasons Why Anwar Cannot Become Prime Minister), a book containing graphic sexual allegations as well as accusations of corruption against Anwar, was published in Kuala Lumpur. In early June, the book was circulated at the annual meeting of UMNO. It was during that meeting that Mahathir apparently began strengthening his control over the party and making moves against Anwar. Days later, Anwar obtained a court injunction to prevent further distribution of the book and filed a defamation complaint against the author. In July, a visit by the Indonesian opposition leader Amien Rais led to more pointed comparisons of Malaysia and Indonesia. Domestic critics accused Mahathir of tolerating cronyism, and the international financial press and the IMF demanded greater transparency in government and UMNO-managed enterprises. The editors of Utusan Malaysia , a Malay-language newspaper and magazine group, and Berita Harian , another prominent Malay newspaper, were forced to resign in July, allegedly because of the prominence their papers had given to the transparency issue. Both were supporters of Anwar. Hundreds of Anwar supporters were arrested in the weeks following his arrest as demonstrations against the government increased. The government banned all meetings to discuss reformasi or reform, the word used as a slogan both by Anwar and by Indonesian students in their effort to bring down Soeharto.

Human Rights Developments The second trial of Anwar Ibrahim concluded in August. He was sentenced to nine years in prison on sodomy charges, to run consecutively with the six-year sentence for corruption imposed on him in 1999, which was confirmed by the Court of Appeal in April 2000. Anwar's adopted brother, Sukma Dermawan, was also convicted and sentenced to six years in prison and to receive four lashes with a rattan cane. Anwar's prosecution was widely viewed inside and outside Malaysia as a case of political revenge by Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad against his most prominent critic. His two trials were marred by heavy-handed tactics and irregularities. Key witnesses recanted their confessions and alleged that they were extracted through police coercion and physical abuse. The judge admitted into evidence a contested confession that interrogators had obtained from co-defendant Sukma Dermawan while he was in incommunicado detention without access to counsel, and that he subsequently retracted. Prime Minister Mahathir repeatedly stated publicly that Anwar was guilty before the court delivered its verdict. Defense attorneys Zainur Zakaria and Karpal Singh were prosecuted for statements made in court in the course of Anwar's defense. Finally, the court permitted the prosecution to twice change the dates of the alleged crime. In March, former Inspector-General of Police Abdul Rahim Noor was convicted of "causing hurt" to Anwar for beating him in custody after his arrest. The charge was much reduced from the original, and Noor was sentenced to a fine and two months in prison. At this writing, he remained free on bail pending the outcome of his appeal.

The Federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur and Labuan, in Sabah, each have a Datuk Bandar, or Mayor. The newly completed Putrajaya is also a Federal Territory and it is due to become the new administrative centre of Malaysia once the transition is completed.
Putrajaya is 25 km south of Kuala Lumpur and only 20 km away from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). A futuristic city no one would have thought possible in this day and age in Malaysia, it embodies the culture and traditions of Malaysia. Other than the government office complexes, homes for the people and a lavish mosque, this self-sufficient township comes complete with its very own wetlands and nature highlights.

Malaysia: Govt stops visas to Nepali workers
Nepali workers, who had already received confirmations from different employers to work in Malaysia prior to the decision returned empty handed on Friday, Nepal Association of Foreign Employment Agency (NAFEA) said Sunday. The Malaysian government on Friday decided to stop recruiting employees from 12 different countries including Nepal for the next three months. The largest foreign employment provider after the Gulf countries has decided to stop recruiting workers from Nepal, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar and others. Government sources, however, have announced that work is in progress to sign a labour agreement with Malaysia that would not only address the existing confusion but also give continuity to the supply of workers and ensure their security. They fear that if this trend of activists aspiring for foreign jobs to Malaysia continues then the political party would face a great setback with the number of lobbyists going down. The decision not to hire Nepalese workers for the next three months was taken by the Foreign Employment Committee of the Malaysian Government to give priority to Tsunami victims of Indonesia who are in more desperate need of employment, government sources quoted the Malaysian authorities as saying.

During the 1980s, rampant logging in the Bornean states of Sabah and Sarawak allowed Malaysia to temporarily outpace Indonesia and become the world's largest exporter or tropical wood. On paper, Malaysia, once the world's largest exporter of tropical woods, probably has one of the best rainforest protection policies in developing Asia, but in practice logging still carries on as it always has. The majority of Malaysia's remaining forests are managed for timber production and each state is empowered to formulate forest policy independently. During the past two decades of thorough logging of Malaysian forests, sustainable forest management has been non-existent. While Malaysia has the policy framework for sustainable forest management in the form of the National Forestry Act of 1984, it has failed to enforce the legislation.
With deforestation, the lands of indigenous Penans have been invaded. The Penans are given little compensation for losing their source of livelihood and their culture from the companies that exploit their lands, other than diseases like Malaria. In the late 1980s the Penans protested these destructive practices by installing roadblocks and damaging logging equipment, but were ruthlessly put down by the Malaysian government and logging companies.
Decades of mining in Peninsular Malaysia have left a heavy mark on the environment. Deforestation, pollution of rivers, and siltation have resulted in agricultural losses and road projects open new areas to colonization.

Malaysia is important to world energy markets because of its 75 trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves and its net oil exports of over 300,000 barrels per day. Note: All information contained in this report is the best available as of January 2005 and is subject to change. GENERAL BACKGROUND
Malaysia 's banking system has been stabilized, after being undermined by a high proportion of nonperforming loans during the Asian financial crisis of 1997-98. The country's banking sector went through a major restructuring in 2000, with many weaker financial institutions being taken over by stronger ones. In order to stimulate the economy, the country's government increased spending sharply in 2001, but in 2003-2004 began to reduce its government budget deficit as a proportion of GDP as demand for exports recovered. Prime Minister Mahathir Muhammad stepped down in October 2003 after over two decades in office. Abdullah Ahmed Badawi, who had previously served as Deputy Prime Minister, succeeded him. OIL
Malaysia contains proven oil reserves of 3.0 billion barrels, down from 4.3 billion barrels in 1996. Despite this trend toward declining oil reserves, Malaysia 's crude oil production has risen in the last two years as a result of new offshore development. In 2002, crude oil production averaged 699,000 bbl/d. That figure rose to an average of 750,000 bbl/d for 2004. Total liquids production for 2004 was 855,000 bbl/d, which includes 80,000 bbl/d of natural gas liquids. Malaysia 's oil demand has been growing at a much slower rate that its economic output, due to conservation efforts and the conversion of oil-fired power plants to natural gas.

The non profit Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) and its Indonesian campaign partner Telapak, released detailed evidence collected during two years of investigations, in a new report "Profiting from Plunder - How Malaysia Smuggles Endangered Wood" documenting how Malaysian citizens and companies smuggle large amounts of timber from the endangered trees illegally cut in Indonesian national parks that are home to endangered orangutans. Last month leading US environmental groups wrote to Secretary of State Colin Powell to "express serious concern at the substantial evidence that Malaysian nationals are actively engaging in trade that undermines international programs to protect endangered timber species from illegal logging and trade" and stated they would seek trade sanctions against Malaysia unless significant new enforcement actions are taken to end Malaysia's trade in illegal ramin.

Chessboard You may remember a few days ago that Bill Gates told an audience in Malaysia that "open source kills jobs" . Actually, what Gates is quoted in that article as saying is "...open source software is not the way to go if they [governments and companies] are in the business of creating jobs and intellectual property."
Notice that the sentence in fact makes no sense; companies and governments never create intellectual property, they can only encourage or discourage individuals with talent to do so. As we frequently point out, this is Yet Another Instance of the continual psyop waged by Gates and others by perveting the English language. But the Malaysian government wasn't paying attention anyway. This article from silicon.de (German)
