Eventhough Europe which was far more developed, it took them 200 years of slow
development. It was deniable on the Wests experience and many contribution because they
are the one who brought the globalization of the world. It is always better to learn an acquire
from people with recent experience. Not only focusing on great industrial power country like
Japan, even Koreans who still can recalled how hard and costly it had been for them to
acquire Western industrial know-how and to manage industrial plants. Look East policies
was formulated and presented to make sure that Malaysians look to these countries as
models of national development. Nothing against their workers and unions because of their
productivity and competitiveness. For example, Japan employement system was completely
different from the European and also Malaysia systems because they provide a lifetime
employment for their workers. The first that will take by European countries or America when
the facing problems, they dismissed workers then register themselves as unemployed and
then may then collect dole from the government.
While in Japan, when their companies were not doing well, the did not sack workers,
choosing instead to redeploy or create a work for them. I did not think that Malaysia could
afford to follow this system. This is because, Malaysia government no dole for the
unemployed, and they usually have to depend on their families to sustain them. The
government on their part try to create as many jobs as possible. By implementing policies by
encouraging the creation of private sector work opportunities, job can be created, and it is
the proper role of government. That is why when Malaysia invited foreign investment, the
government did not insist on immediately collecting taxes. They prepared to forgo taxes if the
investors created jobs for people of Malaysia. In my view, no one who was prepared to work
should remain unemployed. In fact, the government was so successful in creating jobs that
there are now more than two million foreign workers in our country.
About global partnership, Argentina had a interesting relationship and began when
most of the royal polo teams buy polo ponies. Then Mahathir encouraged horse-riding and
more Argentine polo ponies were imported. Other than that, there in a joint venture with
Chileans, Malaysia invested in one of the biggest leather tanneries and Malaysia trader
sourced seamless steel pipes for the oil industry from Argentina for distribution in the Far
East.
Mahathir was born a Muslim and brought up as Muslim. Eventhough, by knowing and
being friends with peoples from other religions, he did not undermine his own faith. Based on
his opinions, Islam is a religion that tolerates the existence of other religions and their
followers. In Malaysia, Shariah law may not be applied in every case to avoid injustice. In this
multiracial country, we do apply other laws but by upholding justice for everyone, by keeping
the nation free from conflict and instability, we are folloeing the teachings of Islam. Today we
have numerous sects of Islam with each claimingvthat the others are not Islam or not quite
Islam. In fact, such a differences in their teachings that they often fight wars against each
other. Tun Dr Mahathir said that Prophet brought only one Islam embodied in the verses of
the Quran and the true sayings and deeds which is the Hadith, or traditions of the Prophet.
Many of the founders of Islamic sects were great religious scholars who genuinely believed
that they were giving the true or the correct interpretations of Islam. However, because of
their interpretations and teachings differed so much from each other, they could not all be
right. They may not intend to cause the conflicts and separations into sects, they often
modestly implore their followers not to be fanatical about their teachings but the followers are
often far more rigid than their teachers and might not accept any other teachings as Islamic.
Islam and Islamisation of the Malaysian administration were not causes of contention before.
The fact is that during the period when Malaysia adopted Islamic values and declared itself
an Islamic country, there was peace and stability and the country developed and grew as
never before. Unfortunately, many people who study and learned Muslim are not quite
happy with tolerance as taught by the Quran. They would like Islam to be stricter, more
severe and violently opposed to other religions.
Wawasan 2020 is one of the concept that introduced by Y.A.B. Dr Mahathir in 28
February 1991. He said in his speech, the aim that to be stand for Malaysia is to lead
Malaysia become an industrial country. Malaysia must be a successful country evolve during
2020. The evolution will brings a development to economy, politic, social, spiritual and
culture. Wawasan 2020 is a vision or known as long terms strategic. The strategic included
various aspect related to development of country in connection with development of worlds
economy.
Caring society is one of the challenge to Wawasan 2020. It is seventh challenge of
Wawasan 2020, where it is a challenge of establishing a fully caring society and a caring
culture. A social system in which society will come before self, in which the welfare of the
people will revolve not around the state or the individual but around a strong and resilient
family system. Y.A.B. Dr Mahathir define caring society as one caring community and caring
culture that nurtured with a social system in which accentuate community than themselves
for welfare of their community. In which, caring society is one of the community that lives
based on the sociality between them in a community. Each one of them are respect each
other among themselves and understanding among them, where the youngest members
respect to elder and caring for them.
There are several important of caring society is needed between them. One of the
important is preserve the national honour. As the stated, one nation need a stability to
maintain the nation and it is needed from community. The community is important to maintain
the stability of nation to lead to stability of economy and politic.
emotional, mental and spiritual to responsibility will produce a nation with harmony and
peace. Second is maintaining values of easting. From the old age, community of Malaysia
was known with pristine values such as helping with each other, friendly, respectful,
considerate and cooperative but when the arrival of the western powers to this country, they
introduced values from west such as arrogance, materialistic, individualistic and oppressors
so values have been eroded existing and forgotten. The introduction of a caring society can
contribute to fostering the Eastern values that are being abandoned. Lastly, shaped a nation
to be a developed country. Dr Mahathir Mohammad stated the main goal is to lead Malaysia
to become one of the fully develop nation by 2020.
