The law for Hopping issue..

The general election of 8th March has cost the BN their 2/3 majority in the parliament seats. Although they have setup the new government instantly but how long can this said government last for?

It has been a hot topic about MPs hopping from BN to Pakatan Rakyat particularly from East Malaysia after Dato Seri Anwar has publicly mention that he has successfully receive sufficient number of MPs to overthrown the BN government and build the new central government of pakatan rakyat. While on the other hand, the BN side seen like starting to draft an anti hopping act to prohibit any MPs from their side to hop to the opposition.


However, I personally think that any act that prohibit people included elected MPs to leave his/her/theirs existing parties to join others for their better matched political objectives, philosophies and views of nation and social affairs is unacceptable; it is just like prohibit a worker from leaving an organization and join another which found to have offer a better condition and environment.

My objection on the establishment of any anti-hopping act is to ensure that each and every Members of the parliament will be able to contribute more effectively and efficiently to fight for their voters under the flag of a more suitable political party.

Meanwhile, I suggest for amendments to be made on the existing election act in order to tackle the political hopping issue as below:
Election Act Sect xxx

Any of the candidates who won in the election as elected MP must remain in his/her said party as registered during the general election for his/her term of service of 5 years or prior to the dissolve of the parliament; any elected candidates who withdraw from the said party as registered (to join any others or remain independent) during his/her term of service should be automatically sacked as Member of the Parliament while a by-election should called up within the next 30days for new Member of Parliament for particular seat.

Sub- section:
The said MP who been sacked is eligible to be nominated for the said by-election as an independent candidates or candidates under his/her new party.

My suggestion is actually to ensure that politician/ any of the MPs are not restricted to remain in a party that he/she might not able to perform his/her responsibility as for the best of his/her voters.

Nonetheless, it also gave a second chance for voters to eliminate candidate who is purely a political speculator that hopping from party to another for his/her individual interest.


Lastly, if the said candidate remain as the MP after the by-election, it should be clear that the voters are satisfy with the candidate’s individual performance as the voice of theirs in the hall of parliament instead of the which party does he/she represent and serve for.

Today's educational output/products

This has been a hot debate topic many youngsters today whether to further or not and amongst those who taking their degree or tertiary educational stage. Is it today educational has just able to produce those “scholars” who know only how to read, memorize and sit for exam?

I believe we should look into the reason of study: whether it is for the purpose of brighter future with higher paid or for knowledge to upgrade a person mind and knowledge base.

For those who do well for the aim of getting better results for the future, whether it is healthy to working hard in reading and memorize the books again and again for exam is not a matter, the most important thing is to making sure the As in the result slip. Are we learning in a healthy educational structure, who cares…just get the “A”s will do…

For those who study with the objective of acquire knowledge, of course, they will think that students from the other side is nothing than a photocopy machines which photocopy everything inside the text book, lecturers’ views to the exam answer sheet. They could be no thinking process being taken apart from that…


After studying for so many years and experiences in looking for job recently, I conclude that it could be found to be caused by follows:

1. The requirements of the market
Whether on newspapers or on-line recruitment notice, there must be a qualification requirements, it is there since ancient times; because of the prevalence of college students, now in the qualifications may ask you to be on a certain level of results, it may be second upper, 3.2 or 3.5 of CGPA depends on the results and post that you look for.

2. National education system
Fostering young scholars with real thinking and analyst mindset and practical experience could be something impossible under our current education system. The current system requires students to remember all the theories, but not really in understand it and use it; students might not even have chance to practice it and try it.
We should look back to all former Minister of Education and Minister of Higher Education’s backgrounds, the strategy and policies maker for our country’s education system, how many of them do have such background or understanding or relevance knowledge in education industry?

3.Social assessment on the degree of learning level
look around you and see how parents and those aunty and uncle assess their children or others children achievement in learning or their education. The most important and common part of that is how many “A”s have their children get in the exam and/or how many marks do they score out of 100%.
