IT was reported earlier that the Youth and Sports Ministry was “forced” to move the finale of the FitMalaysia programme to Malacca instead of Johor.
More worryingly, if even these internal sources are unsure about the real reason behind the move, what does that say about the internal communications within the ministry? For someone who often touted that the youth of the nation should be empowered, and often came down hard on corruption cases of the previous regime, Syed Saddiq’s lack of commitment to communicate his ministry’s plans is utterly disappointing. If he really wants to empower the youth, he should start by outlining what he is planning and coordinating with existing stakeholders to ensure good outcomes.
What is being taught in universities needs urgent review. In addition, there are just too many university places available for the needs of the local workforce.Last month, many Malaysians rallied behind Syed Saddiq when he unequivocally denounced controversial preacher Zakir Naik over his disparaging statements about non-Muslim guests in the country. In these times of divisiveness, it was good to see at least one Malay minister taking the charge in defending the social contract in Malaysia.
Instead, this U-turn continued to incense Malaysians, and rightfully so. The “apology” issued by Zakir neither apologised or acknowledged his hurtful statements towards Chinese and Indian Malaysians in his sermon.
