KLCI STILL BEARISH
The FBM KLCI technical readings on the chart remained the same as the market was directionless. The trend remained bearish below both the short- and long-term 30-day and 200-day moving averages.
Momentum indicators are still bearish on the FBM KLCI, but they also indicate that the bearish trend has weakened. This indicates that market confidence is strengthening.
The Relative Strength Index continued to climb towards its mid-level. The moving average convergence divergence indicator has crossed above its moving average and the FBM KLCI is about to climb above the middle band of the Bollinger Bands indicator.
The index has to break above the immediate resistance level at 1,640 points to turn bullish.
The thinning Ichimoku Cloud indicator indicates resistance is weakening, and hence there is a high possibility for the index to break above the resistance level.

Dear friends
What better way to reign in the royal weekend in Victoria, the Queen’s birthday long weekend than discussing sedition with none other than Zunar, Malaysia’s best known multi-award winning cartoonist, who is facing 43 years of jail time in Malaysia for alleged sedition over his outspoken criticism through satiric cartoons of Malaysia’s administration. (If you still need an introduction to Zunar, the cartoons you typically see in the Malaysiakini website are his works of art!)
So how did the law surrounding sedition, which was rooted in early 1600s England, at a time when the divine right of royalty was above criticism and therefore unlawful become so popular in 21st century Malaysia?

So how did the law surrounding sedition, which was rooted in early 1600s England, at a time when the divine right of royalty was above criticism and therefore unlawful become so popular in 21st century Malaysia?
The British colonists are said to have been draconian with this law in that the application of sedition laws in the British colonies was aimed at suppressing any opposition and any challenge to British rule irrespective of whether any act of violence or disorder was likely to follow
.
With the British colonists long gone, why do we still need this draconian act that oppresses intellect and creativity in Zunar’s case? So much so that our parliamentarians can’t talk about certain matter of public interest within the confines of the Parliament itself – the very reason they were elected in the first place. Has the application of gone overboard when a cartoonist is made to face 43 years of jail time?
One other issue of late is 1MDB, one of Malaysia’s development funds and the alleged misuse of these funds to finance politics in Malaysia and ensuring corruption allegations. Like many of us, Zunar takes a keen interest on 1MDB and has made it the subject of many of his recent works.
So why is money needed in politics? Is money in politics evil all and corrupt all together or is money genuinely part of the cost of democracy and real world politics?
To explore sedition and the cost of democracy in more depth, SABM Australia has organised two FREE events with Zunar in Melbourne when he is in Melbourne from 10 June 2016 to 11 June 2016. Refer to details below.

“在本校理事長兼創校院長張瑞發的主導下，本校也成立了‘馬來語言文化研究所’，希望為這方面的研究出一分力。”
楊貴誼出2書盼拋磚引玉‧“華馬文學研究邀加入”
（柔佛‧新山16日訊）畢生投入華馬字典與辭典編撰，專注於華馬文化研究與探析，高齡84歲的
楊貴誼希望通過《華馬文化論叢》與《Himpunan Makalah Kebudayan
Cina-Melayu》書籍達到拋磚引玉的效果，讓更多人得到啟發，對華馬文學交流出一份力。

楊貴誼與夫人陳妙華從事華馬辭典及字典近50年，楊貴誼更是利用畢生的時間，對華馬文化展開研究，是當代本地少有的華馬文化研究者。
楊貴誼今日推介《華馬文化論叢》與《Himpunan Makalah Kebudayan Cina-Melayu》兩本書籍，他為自己的著作能夠得以結集成書而感到開心，並希望通過書籍出版，達到拋磚引玉的效果。
他說，華馬是馬來西亞兩個最大的民族，兩族之間應該互相交流及了解。因此，他希望有志人士能夠多做一些兩族跨文化的研究，並從事一些促進華馬民族關係的工作。
《華馬文化論叢》與《Himpunan Makalah Kebudayan Cina-Melayu》由華社研究中心（後稱“華研”）出版，今日在南方大學學院推介。
出席者包括南方大學學院校長祝家華、華研董事主席周素英、主任詹緣端、義務總秘書陳松青、華研楊貴誼陳妙華贈書珍藏室暨《華馬文化論叢》顧問陳祖明教授，以及學術沙龍主持人、華研學術董事暨馬來亞大學中文系主任祝家豐博士等；贊助人之一的范泉先也到場。
周素英：獲贈馬來文稀有圖書
華研董事主席周素英在推介禮上透露，華研三年前在該中心董事莊華興穿針引線下，獲得楊貴誼夫婦的青睞，將畢生珍藏的馬來文稀有圖書及相關出版品，以及數量龐大的各類馬來文珍貴刊物等，全數無償捐贈給華研。
她說，為了感謝楊貴誼對溝通華馬語文和文化的貢獻，華研特別闢出一間特藏室，將全部贈書和資料收入其中，並建立目錄及開始著手電子數碼化工程的工作。
“我們目前已耗資20多萬令吉購買電子數碼化的儀器，希望未來所有圖書和文獻能夠在網上公開使用，成為全世界的學術文化遺產。”
周素英透露，楊貴誼夫婦捐贈的藏書，包含手稿資料，總數超過4萬冊，單單是圖書類書籍，就有約1萬4千冊；各種語言辭典和字典共1千213部，是楊貴誼夫婦近50年來的收藏。
她透露，481種在1970年代以前出版的馬華文學作品更是贈書的亮點之一；此外，尚有楊貴誼手寫的各類文字稿共9千290頁，辭典編撰版本存稿共1萬3千多頁等。
祝家華：楊貴誼精神令人敬佩
南方大學學院校長祝家華則指出，楊貴誼一身投入於馬來字典的編撰工作，並堅持於馬來文化研究，非常不容易，但楊貴誼永不放棄的精神令他敬佩。
他說，跨文化研究在當今的大馬是很重要的部分，但卻缺乏這方面的人才。
他指出，南方大學學院一直希望能夠在這方面作出努力，如一開始創辦及現在復辦的馬來文學系。
“在本校理事長兼創校院長張瑞發的主導下，本校也成立了‘馬來語言文化研究所’，希望為這方面的研究出一分力。”
祝家華也透露，為配合該校25週年校慶，該校將在10月份舉辦“馬來語言文化國際研討會”；另外，該校也預計在9月份可獲得准證，開辦翻譯學碩士課程。（星洲日報‧大柔佛）

他說，但是聯邦憲法中闡明，18歲以下孩童的宗教可由母親或父親決定，這意味著任何禁止單方面改教的法律將違反聯邦憲法。 ..........................father ok, but mum not ok........how to decide ....??? minister of no brain???.......look like talk in no brain........loh..simple logic, must GOT OR OBATAIN THE PERMISSION OF BOTH PARENT..LAH....INTERPRETATION OF LAW IN SUKA-SUKA WAY N MAKE MORE PEOPLE TO SUFFER......
（吉隆坡23日訊）首相署部長拿督斯里加米基爾在國會上表明，父母有權單方面替孩子決定宗教，任何禁止單方面改教的做法，將抵觸聯邦憲法。
怡保西區國會議員古拉在國會下議院提到，父母因有個人議程，單方面替18歲以下的孩子改教已為伊斯蘭教帶來負面影響，政府已有對策維護伊斯蘭教的神聖以及何時修改法令禁止同類事情發生。
加米基爾對此作出回應，指政府時時維護伊斯蘭教的聖潔，同時也意識到單方面替未成年孩童改教的問題和案例。
他說，但是聯邦憲法中闡明，18歲以下孩童的宗教可由母親或父親決定，這意味著任何禁止單方面改教的法律將違反聯邦憲法。

中國外交部今天批評日本政府主張「沖之鳥」是島不是礁，是一種貪心行為，同時呼籲日方遵守國際法。
中國外交部發言人華春瑩今日在例行記者會上表示，沖之鳥礁是西太平洋上遠離日本本土的孤立岩礁。日方以區區兩張床大小的岩礁，非法主張近70萬平方公里的
管轄海域，心太貪，胃口太大，是對公海和國際海底區域的大面積侵蝕，是對國際社會整體利益的嚴重損害。日方口口聲聲稱遵守國際法，希望日方言行一致，真正
知法守法。
針對記者提問，台灣政府昨日表示，在沖之鳥礁是「礁」還是「島」的問題上「不採取法律上的特定立場」，中方有何評論時，華春瑩表示，沖之鳥礁是西太平洋上 遠離日本本土的孤立岩礁。根據《聯合國海洋法公約》，該礁不應有專屬經濟區和大陸架，其周圍12海裡以外海域是公海，各國依法享有捕魚自由等公海自由。 2012年4月，聯合國大陸架界限委員會對日本外大陸架劃界案作出建議，未認可日本依據沖之鳥礁提出的非法主張。（大陸中心／綜合報導）
