    What if the world was dominated by men? What if all women had no say in things they believe, and every woman’s voice was considered useless? From the 1800’s up until today, women all around the world have been told they can be nothing more than a housewife and man’s eye candy. Thanks to brilliant trailblazers like Susan B. Anthony, Alice Paul, and Lucy Stone, the term feminism has been well respected and has grown into a worldwide phenomenon. Now more than ever, feminism has allowed women across the world to use their voice, and do everything a man can do, and better.…

    Transformation refers to a complete change. It signifies the essence of growth and progress. The true wealth of a nation lies not in its foreign exchange reserves and riches, but in its citizens, especially its youth. Youth have the power to transform and hence, on their strong shoulders, rests the responsibility of leading the nation towards progress and prosperity. Youth form the backbone of any society and in this context we are extremely fortunate to have a vibrant youth potential numerically unmatched in the world. India, in the past, has had its glories, but much greater glories await this great nation in the future( Ramakrishna Mission, 2008). It is here, that our youth will have an all-important and distinguished role to play. Transformation of our youth would be the key to this projected image of our country. Any transformation that we seek, would inadvertently have to begin from ourselves (Abdul Kalam, 2004). Our raw youth potential is in need of maturation, without losing the essence and elixir of youth and this can be achieved by motivation to undergo transformational exercises, resulting in growth and awakening, which would lead to transformation in the desired direction. Many such opportunities are available, one of which; The National Cadet Corps…

    Patriotism in Malaysia

    • 1753 Words
    • 8 Pages

    The compulsory national service training 'programme is intended to foster the spirit of patriotism, encourage racial integration, and develop "positive and noble traits" among the younger generation' (Malaysiakini 13/6/2003). The targeted group is our youth of about 18 years. The object of this programme was expressed by Defence Minister Najib Tun Razak, who chairs the special cabinet committee. 'The programme will focus on basic military training, patriotic training and personal development including community service.' (Malaysiakini 17/6/2003) In the military, one is trained to follow orders of superiors without question. Would this be one of the characteristics graduates of this training would be instilled with? Hopefully not, because for a person to be a patriot, he must be a person concerned with the well being of the nation and this means that he must be a person who will be brave enough to stand up to criticize bad leaders, bad policies, bad laws, corrupt practices, lack of transparency in the leadership and/or the government of the day, injustices around him, abuses of powers and everything that is not good for Malaysia and Malaysians as a whole. He must be a participative citizen of Malaysia, and not a by-stander silenced by fear and/or other self-interest. A patriot must be a person who will also get involved in the day-to-day politics of the nation, at every level; this would mean he will not only support good candidates for leadership, but will also offer himself as a candidate. There was, at one time, many Malaysians who were like 'Hang Tuah', a person with total and blind loyalty to the rulers of the day, irrespective of whether justice or injustice was done or ordered to be done - but today we find that more and more Malaysians are becoming like 'Hang Jebats', a person who would voice out and protest injustices done even by the rulers of the day. Hang Jebat…
