Abd Ghani|Kuala Lumpur|Malaysia 02 Sept 2022 10.10 am
Dalam membuktikan kredibilitinya dalam bidang politik, pada tahun 2017 YB Datuk Hajah Zuraida Kamaruddin telah mewakili Malaysia di dalam persidangan Women Political Leaders Summit (WPL) 2017, untuk membicarakan isu yang sedang dihadapi oleh wanita Malaysia, terutamanya dalam topik kesaksamaan gender dan keterbukaan perwakilan politik di Malaysia.
Dalam usaha menuntut reformasi dalam struktur demokrasi Malaysia. Beliau bukan sahaja memperjuangkan isu berkenaan wanita di peringkat kebangsaan, namun terdapat keperluan untuk mempromosikan demokrasi dan pentadbiran yang baik di luar negara.
Sebelum ini, YB Datuk Hajah Zuraida juga pernah dijemput untuk menyampaikan pandangan dalam satu majlis “Peranan Wakil Global Untuk Memperkasa Kesaksamaan Gender dan Pemberdavaan Politik Wanita” (The Role of Global and Regional Actors to Advance Gender Equality and political Empowerment of Women), yang dianjurkan oleh Community of Democracy (program khas untuk persidangan utama Persatuan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu).
Usul 30 peratus perwakilan wanita dalam parti politik, pertama kalinya telah dibawa di dalam perbincangan ini kerana pada ketika itu belum ada lagi mana-mana parti politik Malaysia yang mengusulkan perkara tersebut…. Kata YB Datuk Hajah Zuraida Kamaruddin
KUALA LUMPUR, 30 Ogos (Bernama) — Perkhidmatan ujian benih sawit SureSawit yang boleh digunakan sebagai mekanisme pensijilan benih oleh pekebun kecil dan pengusaha ladang mampu menjana pendapatan tambahan sehingga RM4.3 bilion setiap tahun kepada ekonomi di seluruh industri.
Menteri Perusahaan Perladangan dan Komoditi Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin berkata, ini akan diterjemahkan kepada peningkatan keuntungan yang besar kepada penggiat sawit dan lebih penting, berupaya meningkatkan kemampanan industri minyak sawit negara.
“Hari ini kita menyaksikan sebuah syarikat berteknologi tinggi berpangkalan di Malaysia membangunkan proses pensijilan benih sawit yang inovatif menggunakan teknologi ujian DNA canggih bagi memastikan hanya baka DXP yang lulus spesifikasi kualiti yang ketat dibekalkan kepada industri sawit.
“Melalui penggunaan ujian benih SureSawit sebagai mekanisme pensijilan anak benih, pekebun kecil dan pengusaha ladang dijangka dapat meningkatkan pendapatan menerusi peningkatan produktiviti buah tandan segar (BTS).
“Kilang memproses sawit pula akan meningkatkan pengeluaran dengan kadar perahan minyak (OER) lebih tinggi,” katanya pada majlis pelancaran perkhidmatan ujian benih sawit SureSawit di makmal ujian Orion Biosains Sdn Bhd di Puchong dekat sini, hari ini.
Perkhidmatan yang diperkenalkan oleh Orion Biosains dan Lembaga Minyak Sawit Malaysia (MPOB) itu adalah berdasarkan teknologi gen SHELL MPOB yang canggih.
Ketua Pengarah MPOB Datuk Dr Ahmad Parveez Ghulam Kadir berkata agensi itu telah menjalankan penyelidikan yang meluas bagi penyahkodan dan menganalisis genom sawit sejak 2004, sebagai asas kepada penemuan yang menyokong perkhidmatan SureSawit.
“SureSawit menawarkan kaedah saringan berasaskan DNA kepada industri sawit yang digunakan secara meluas, bukan sahaja di Malaysia tetapi di seluruh dunia. Penemuan gen SHELL membolehkan pokok-pokok berhasil rendah dikenal pasti pada peringkat benih atau semaian sebelum anak pokok ditanam di ladang,” katanya.
Sementara itu, Orion Biosains dalam kenyataan berkata perkhidmatan ujian benih sawit SureSawit adalah titik perubahan bagi meningkatkan rantaian bekalan anak benih berkualiti, terutamanya untuk program tanam semula sawit.
Digunakan pada peringkat awal proses pengeluaran benih, ujian itu membolehkan pensijilan DNA secara berkumpulan bagi benih DXP berprestasi tinggi dan ultra tinggi.
Proses pensijilan membolehkan pengeluar untuk menyaring dan mengenal pasti serta hanya memasarkan anak benih DXP tulen, sekali gus mengatasi isu pengeluaran anak benih berkualiti rendah yang mempunyai pencemaran baka dura daripada rantaian bekalan penanaman semula sawit.
Sehingga kini, lebih sejuta ujian telah dijalankan di makmal Orion Biosains yang diperakui MS ISO/IEC 17025.
Menurut kenyataan itu, ia juga berbangga menjadi sebahagian daripada syarikat yang menyumbang kepada peningkatan daya saing dan pengeluaran minyak sawit mampan.
Keputusan Luar Jangkaan Mahkamah Persekutuan Telah Mengejutkan Dan MenyebabkanKelompok Mahkamah UMNO Kelam Kabut… ABAI
August 28th, 2022
UMNO warlords aligned to the Court Cluster, a term refers to several UMNO leaders facing graft charges in court, including former Prime Minister Najib Razak and UMNO president Zahid Hamidi, were incredibly shocked at the boldness and swiftness of the Federal Court led by Chief Justice Tengku Maimun in sending Najib to prison. The precision strike has even shocked Najib himself.
Rosmah Mansor, 70-year-old wife of Najib, is expected to be convicted too when the High Court delivers its decision on the coming September 1. While her case did not have evidence as overwhelming as her 69-year-old husband, there are enough evidence to convict her in the corruption trial to the RM1.25 billion Sarawak rural school’s solar energy project.
Money changed hands and she had accepted bribes. If her husband’s SRC International corruption was a simple and straightforward case, as ruled by the chief justice, Rosmah’s case is even simpler. The stunning decisiveness displayed by Tengku Maimun has indeed inspired and encouraged other judges. Her leadership sends shivers down the spine of other UMNO crooks.
This is why UMNO Supreme Council member and former Tabung Haji chairman Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim pretended to be sick today when the Court of Appeal is about to decide whether to strike out his corruption and money laundering charges. Judge Kamaludin Md Said, frustrated with multiple delays, has warned that a decision will be made on Sept 5 whether Azeez is ready or not.
And this is also why pro-Najib bloggers, propagandists and cyber troopers are working overtime and burning the midnight oil to cook up yet another dubious 71-page judgement documents pronouncing Rosmah guilty on Sept 1. They knew Rosmah is guilty as hell, but use psychology warfare to create a false perception that like Najib, Rosmah will face an unfair judiciary system.
But the most terrified crook after the jailing of Najib is obviously Zahid. If a former prime minister can be imprisoned, who is Zahid to escape punishment? Facing 47 charges related to corruption, money laundering and criminal breach of trust (CBT), his crime is even simpler than Najib and Rosmah combined. Not only money changed hands, the crook used the ill-gotten money to pay his credit cards.
Jumping like a cat on hot bricks, Zahid has been summoning UMNO leaders for endless meetings to gather support to pressure junior colleague – party vice-president Ismail Sabri – to dissolve the parliament for a snap election. At the peak of Najib’s final appeal at the Federal Court, both Najib and Zahid reportedly forced their way into PM Sabri’s residence, demanding political intervention.
The disgraced Najib had even instigated his army of hardcore supporters to intimidate Chief Justice Maimun with a death threat. But when Ismail Sabri refused to interfere and Tengku Maimum resisted the personal attacks, panics engulfed the camp of Court Cluster. Thugs were sent to the Palace, disrespectfully demanding the King to interfere and issue a royal pardon for Najib.
Comically, none of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO) top leaders, let alone ministers, were present when some 300 Najib supporters marched to the Istana Negara (Palace) just a day after Najib began a 12-year jail term. Not even UMNO party president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, formerly Najib’s deputy, took part in the illegal gathering.
But the burning question is why Zahid so panicked when he has not even been convicted? Even after he is found guilty, he still has years to appeal at the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court. The answer – without Najib, he is fast losing support within the party. Even though Zahid minions claimed 158 out of 191 UMNO division chiefs supported him, the actual number is much lower.
Known for inflating the figures to project fake support, other sources said only 73 division chiefs – less than half of the claimed 158 division chiefs – had responded to Zahid’s call for a special meeting on Monday (Aug 22). Even then, some had reluctantly attended because they were being threatened – Zahid will not nominate them as candidates in the coming polls if they refused to participate.
Meaning the UMNO president commands as little as one third supports from 191 division chiefs. It’s highly possible because top guns like Hishammuddin Hussein, Khairy Jamaluddin and other UMNO ministers aligned to Sabri’s Minister Cluster appeared to have ignored Zahid’s meeting. Now, UMNO warlords aligned to Zahid have given an ultimatum to PM Sabri.
Despite being the prime minister, Ismail Sabri could be sacked as the party’s vice-president unless the turtle egg man obediently carries out 4 demands – remove Attorney General Idrus Harun, sack Chief Justice Tengku Maimun, get a royal pardon for Najib and immediately calls a nationwide election. This is the first time in the history that a sitting premier is being blackmailed by fellow UMNO leaders.
The Court Cluster, led by Zahid, threatens to withdraw support for the prime minister, the same way they toppled former backdoor PM Muhyiddin Yassin last year, even though this time the premier is one of their kind. That speaks volumes about how desperate and anger the crooks are at their own vice-president, so much so they dare to openly ask PM Sabri to interfere in the judicial process.
However, all the thuggish protests, threats and blackmails exposes how UMNO previously created Kangaroo Court to carry out their orders to pervert the rule of law – till the party was defeated in the 2018 General Election. That explains why the corrupted UMNO regime always won their cases when it reached the Court of Appeal or the Federal Court against the Opposition.
But the biggest surprise was the resistance demonstrated by Ismail Sabri, refusing to kowtow to his two big bosses, Najib and Zahid. He has maintained that the doctrine of separation of powers must be respected. And he has continuously played dumb, dragging his feet for months, despite repetitive pressure to call for an early election.
Was the turtle egg man really that clever? When Muhyiddin was forced to resign, Ismail insisted on meeting Mahathir Mohamad to get his support in August 2021. He visited Mahathir again in January 2022 when the old man was admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN). Both met again in May this year at the 27th International Conference or Nikkei Conference in Japan.
Those were published meets. There could be dozens more un-published private meetings between Mahathir and Ismail. Both have common enemies – Najib and Zahid. Surrounded by mostly clowns and apple polishers, the accidental prime minister does not have any credible advisers. Sabri might be dumb, but he understood that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
In February this year, Mahathir said – “Najib must be stopped. If he comes back to power, this means that the country will be controlled by a kleptocrat from the ‘court cluster’ and risks being robbed”. While the message was written to Johor voters during the state election, Sabri soon found out why Mr Najib must be stopped – if he does not wish to be dumped like a used condom.
Even though UMNO had won a “landslide”, Ismail was humiliated the moment he walked into the UMNO-led Barisan Nasional coalition’s command centre at the Johor UMNO Liaison Hall. He was greeted with a roaring “Bubar Parlimen!” (Dissolve Parliament) – clearly staged to pressure the un-elected premier. But that was not the worst humiliation.
When Zahid rudely pushed Ismail to give way for a convicted criminal – Najib Razak – to emerge in the centre of the stage in celebrating Johor state election victory, PM Sabri knew he would be game over the moment he dissolves the parliament. Even though he is just one of UMNO three vice presidents, below Zahid in the party’s ranking, he should be accorded some respect.
More importantly, despite promise to retain Hasni Mohammad as Johor Chief Minister if UMNO wins the state election, it was not the case. A junior, Onn Hafiz Ghazi, has been appointed the Chief Minister instead. If the top leaders could betray Hasni, they can certainly betray “poster boy” Ismail Sabri. As expected, after jailing Najib, his loyalist Puad Zakarshi called the poster boy to be scrapped.
The dumb move by Zahid forced the PM to work with Mahathir behind the scene. Last month, Mahathir pre-emptively warned how a non-unanimous decision by the Federal Court in Najib’s final appeal could lead to a royal pardon. After the court delivered an unanimous decision to uphold Najib’s guilty conviction, now Mahathir said there is a 50-50 chance Najib will be pardoned.
If 97-year-old Mahathir’s goal was to provoke Najib and Zahid supporters into believing that Najib has been unfairly sentenced to jail, turning the desperados to openly ask PM Sabri to interfere in the judiciary system, the grand old master tactician has done a great job. If the cunning old man’s objective was to pre-emptively warned of a royal pardon, he has done an excellent job.
Now, Ismail Sabri looks like a champion, refusing to give in to demands to interfere in the legal process. His popularity also skyrockets with many people think he must be a clean leader, or at least relatively clean, for fighting the corrupted UMNO crooks. He has won the perception war in the court of public opinion, while Mahathir got his victory in the court of law with Najib imprisonment.
People actually rally behind the turtle egg man after news broke that he could be sacked by his own party for refusing to break the prison in order to rescue a crook. The pressure on the prime minister could boomerang on Zahid. If the UMNO president is not careful, he himself can be sacked with the support of two-thirds of delegates at an EGM (according to Article 9.12 of UMNO Constitution).
To kill three birds with one stone, Sabri administration has declassified documents pertaining to investigations into the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) scandal. The brilliant move has not only project transparency in his government, but diverts all the blame on Najib, Zahid and Hishammuddin – all are ambitious corrupted UMNO leaders hunger for the Iron Throne.
The declassification of the LCS project was also one of the reasons Najib and Zahid wanted to neutralize Ismail soonest possible with demands to dissolve the parliament. Armed with Mahathir’s help and Opposition Pakatan Harapan’s support, the supposedly lame duck Sabri has checkmated rival Najib, and soon Zahid, Rosmah, Azeez and other crooks could be terminated.
Eventually, Mahathir may return to UMNO after getting rid of Najib, Zahid and Rosmah. The old man only said he will not work with UMNO, but didn’t say he would not go back to the party which he created back in 1988. He said UMNO will win big, thus he needed UMNO to ensure his son could continue his dynasty. For now, he is giving Zahid enough rope to hang himself.
JAKARTA: Malaysia’s palm oil futures rose for a fourth straight session on Wednesday, tracking gains in soy oil prices amid concerns over weak US output, while investors awaited domestic export data for further cues.
The benchmark palm oil contract for November delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange had risen 1.58% to 4,301 ringgit ($958.76) a tonne by the midday break. Palm oil rose on the back of “spillover strength” from rival edibles oils on the US and Chinese exchanges, a trader in Kuala Lumpur said.
Soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade were up 0.66%, while Dalian’s soyoil contract gained 2.24% and its palm oil contract rose 2.21%. Palm oil is affected by price movements in related oils, as they compete for a share in the global vegetable oils market.
Chicago grains futures extended gains, as a tour of key growing areas in the Midwest raised concerns that the size of the US corn and soybean crops will fall below expectations.
Meanwhile, traders awaited cargo surveyor data for Malaysian palm oil exports during Aug. 1-25 as production this month is seen rising. Export data for Aug. 1-20 were mixed, with two cargo surveyors saying shipments dropped on a monthly basis, while one reported a growth.
Palm oil may test a resistance at 4,452 ringgit per tonne, a break above which could lead to a gain to 4,680 ringgit, Reuters technical analyst Wang Tao said.
KUCHING: Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin hopes that the Sarawak government can allocate more land in the state for the planting of pepper.
She said Sarawak, which has vast land, is indeed suitable for the cultivation of the commodity, thus meeting the growing demand for pepper supply.
Zuraida said she had already submitted an application for land allocation to the Ministry of Modernisation of Agriculture, Native Land and Regional Development (MANRED).
“There is a demand for pepper. That’s why I have asked for land from the Sarawak government so that the Malaysian Pepper Board (MPB) can start work on new cultivation and the replanting of pepper.
“At the same time we also need to see how we want to diversify our products,“ she said when launching the MPB Strategic Action Plan – National Agricommodity Policy (DAKN) 2030 for the pepper sector here yesterday.
Elaborating, Zuraida said Malaysia is currently the fifth largest pepper producer in the world, with Vietnam the largest producer.
She said that although Malaysia is listed as among the world’s largest producers, the country’s pepper export value is still small and has the potential to grow.
“This potential can also be seen based on feedback from the Agricommodity Tour that we conducted from January to April.
“Our pepper has received an overwhelming response from other countries. They recognise our pepper as the best, especially when they see the texture and the product itself,” she added. – Bernama
All M’sian hotels should use local pepper: Zuraida
KUCHING – The Plantation Industries and Commodities Ministry wants all hotels in Malaysia to use local pepper.
Minister Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin said the Malaysian Pepper Board (MPB) is targeting the diversification of pepper-based products so that their global trade revenue will increase.
“They have a set of pepper and salt in hotels, so we can boost the selling of Sarawak pepper if we can do that in our country.
“At the moment, the product line of pepper is still limited to ground pepper and berries (peppercorns).
“MPB is responsible for ensuring there is enough pepper supply and is looking at ways to diversify their products, for example, as ingredients for ‘laksa Sarawak’,” she said after relaunching SaraSpice Sdn Bhd here today.
Meanwhile, Zuraida said MPB subsidiary SaraSpice Sdn Bhd has the potential to increase the value of its pepper products’ orders to RM30 million from June onwards compared to RM13 million orders in the first six months of this year.
She added that the MPB would work with pepper farmers to set up a “mini estate” model to increase pepper cultivation on a small scale.
“MPB will engage with smallholders to get their views before developing a model for ‘mini estate’. Currently, the country’s pepper plantation covers 7,700 hectares of land,” she said. – Bernama, August 25, 2022

Setiap situasi yang kita lalui pasti ada lafaz-lafaz mulia yang boleh anda ungkapkan. Tidak kira situasi baik ataupun buruk.
Ampang|Kuala Lumpur 20 Ogos 2022, 18:30 PM
Setiap situasi yang kita lalui pasti ada lafaz-lafaz mulia yang boleh anda ungkapkan. Tidak kira situasi baik ataupun buruk. Tetapi apa makna sebalik lafaz-lafaz ini. Ada kalanya kita menyebut lafaz-lafaz pada masa yang tidak sesuai dengan maksud lafaz tersebut
1. Subhanallah
Lafaz ‘subhanallah’ membawa makna ‘Maha Suci Allah’. Elok diamalkan sebagai zikir dan dibaca sebelum tidur. Lafaz ini baik digunakan ketika kita nampak sesuatu yang baik dan menggembirakan ataupun perkara yang unik seperti keajaiban alam.
2. Astaghfirullahhalazim
Ucapan istighfar ini adalah satu bentuk pengakuan diri sendiri terhadap dosa-dosa yang kita lakukan. Makna istighfar ini adalah ‘aku mohon keampunan daripada Allah SWT.’ Memohon doa keampunan merupakan salah satu perbuatan yang amat dituntut oleh Allah SWT dan janji Allah SWT, mereka yang selalu beristighfar akan dibuka pintu rezekinya
3. Masya Allah
Apabila kita melihat sesuatu yang menakjubkan dan hebat, ucapan Masya Allah ini paling sesuai untuk disebutkan. Terdapat dua makna sebalik lafaz ini, yang pertama, ‘inilah yang Allah SWT kehendaki’ dan makna kedua adalah ‘apa yang dikehendaki Allah SWT akan terjadi’.
Kesalahan yang selalu dilakukan oleh kita adalah dengan melafazkan Masya Allah apabila berhadapan dengan perkara buruk. Masya Allah ini lebih sesuai dilafazkan ketika kita mendengar atau melihat sesuatu yang baik.
4.Nauzubillahiminzalik
Apabila kita melihat perkara-perkara buruk seperti bencana alam atau perbuatan yang tidak berapa baik di depan mata kita, ucapan ini sesuai untuk dilafazkan pada situasi seperti ini.
Lafaz penuh Nauzubillahiminzalik membawa maksud ‘aku berlindung kepada Allah SWT daripada perkara tersebut.’ Walhal, Nauzubillah pula membawa maksud ‘aku berlindung kepada Allah SWT.
5.Alhamdulillah
Maksud Alhamdulillah adalah ‘segala pujian bagi Allah.’ Ucapan Alhamdulillah ini paling sesuai dilafazkan apabila kita sedang menerima sesuatu yang menggembirakan kita untuk menanam rasa syukur dalam hati ini. Walaupun kehidupan anda sukar, ucap juga Alhamdulillah kerana masih lagi diberi peluang untuk hidup dan beramal kepada Allah SWT.
6.In Shaa Allah
Maksud In Shaa Allah adalah ‘jika diizinkan Allah SWT.’ Lafaz yang cukup popular ini sering diungkapkan apabila kita ingin berjanji untuk melakukan sesuatu. Tetapi dinasihatkan jika hati anda berat untuk melkakukan sesuatu perkara dan memang enggan untuk memnuhi permintaan yang diajukan sejak awal lagi, janganlah berjanji dengan menggunakan lafaz ini. Kerana ia sama seperti mempermainkan peluang dan keizinan Allah SWT.
President-designate PBM Datuk Hajah Zuraida Kamaruddin
AMPANG, Aug 20 — Parti Bangsa Malaysia (PBM) is planning to run in a total of 14 seats in the 15th general election — half will be for Parliament while the other seven will be in states.
Its president-designate Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin told a news conference here this afternoon that the pro-Barisan Nasional party’s plan is to defend all the seats currently held by its members who had won them under other political party banners in Election 2018.
“We’re not asking for more than the seats we already have. We are going to focus on them. We are experienced leaders but the party is new and now we have a short time before facing the election so we focus only on the seats we already have.
“So seven state seats and seven parliamentary seats,” she said after kicking off the party’s political tour to meet voters at Pangsapuri Seri Intan here.
Zuraida said PBM has started its nationwide tour in three states — Perak, Selangor and Johor — to bolster voter support in the constituencies where they are the incumbents.
The party is currently known to only control three federal seats and five state seats at present.
Zuraida is the incumbent Ampang MP while PBM president Larry S’ng is the incumbent for Julau, and Steven Choong for Tebrau. All three previously won their parliamentary seats on PKR’s ticket.
The five state seats under PBM control total three in Perak and two in Selangor.
For Selangor, the seats are held by Haniza Talha (Lembah Jaya), and Dr Daroyah Alwi (Sementa) who won them under PKR in the last election.
The Perak seats are held by A. Sivasubramaniam (Buntong), Leong Cheok Keng (Malim Nawar) and Paul Yong (Tronoh). Sivasubramaniam and Yong were previously from DAP while Leong was formerly from PKR.
Zuraida did not disclose the identities of four other parliamentary constituencies and two state constituencies in PBM’s election plans.
PBM was originally the Sarawak Workers Party before the Registrar of Societies approved a name change last October.
The party recently applied to join the BN coalition as a component member, together with five other parties but has yet to be accepted.
Zuraida told reporters today that she accepts BN’s decision to study their applications in greater detail.
“I support that decision because the issue of coalition and the upcoming election does require more in-depth discussion so that all strategies can be combined and harmonised. So that is their intention to refine.
“So I am waiting for them to call for a meeting to outline what needs to be presented and so on,” she said.

Bersama delegasi Kementerian Perusahaan Perladangan dan Komoditi ke Kilang Universal Robina Corporation (URC) iaitu sebuah syarikat konglomerat yang terkenal di Filipina…YB Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin
URC memonopoli pegangan pasaran yang luas di seluruh dunia dan salah satu jenama produk yang dekat dihati rakyat Malaysia ialah jenama snek makanan Jack N’ Jill.
Apa yang lebih menarik bagi saya, URC Filipina telah menggunakan 100 peratus minyak sawit Malaysia dalam memastikan penghasilan produk mereka yang berkualiti dan enak.
