Asprirasi TN50 Bakal Digantikan Dengan WKB2030?

Malaysia telah pun merangka pelan pembangunan negara setiap 10 tahun. sebelum ini Dasar Ekonomi Baru, Wawasan 2020 dan TN50 menjadi bahan perbincangan jika diambil kira mengenai pembangunan negara. setelah Kerajaan Baru mengambil alih pentadbiran negara maka tercetusnya idea untuk melakarkan Pelan Pembangunan Negara dan diberikan nama Wawasan Kemakmuran Bersama 2030. WKB2030 ialah dokumen yang menggariskan matlamat sepuluh tahun bermula tahun 2020 sehingga tahun 2030 untuk penstrukturan semula ekonomi ekonomi kemahiran rendah Malaysia kepada ekonomi berasaskan pengetahuan, dengan rakyat menikmati standard kehidupan yang baik.Ia dirangkan Kementerian Hal Ehwal ekonomi dan Institut Masa Depan Negara, dan dibentang di kabinet pada 15 September.

 Wawasan Kemakmuran Bersama 2030?

Tiga elemen tunjang yang membantu untuk menegakkan keberkesanan WKB2030 adalah :

• Menstruktur Semula Ekonomi

• Menangani Ketidaksamaan

• Membina Negara

WKB 2030 menetapkan 3 objektif utama iaitu:

1. Pembangunan untuk semua bagi mewujudkan ekonomi yang distruktur semula, progresif, berpaksikan ilmu dan bernilai tinggi dengan penyertaan masyarakat yang menyeluruh di semua peringkat.

2. Menangani jurang kekayaan dan pendapatan supaya rakyat yang ketinggalan dapat dibawa bersama dalam arus kemajuan negara, nasib mereka terbela dan keupayaan ekonomi mereka diperkasakan.

3. Negara bersatu, makmur dan bermaruah untuk menjadikan Malaysia sebuah negara yang bersatu, makmur dan bermaruah seterusnya muncul sebagai paksi ekonomi Asia.

Berikut takrifan rasmi WKB2030: "Wawasan Kemakmuran Bersama 2030 adalah iltizam untuk menjadikan Malaysia sebagai sebuah negara yang terus membangun secara mampan seiring dengan pengagihan ekonomi yang adil, saksama dan inklusif pada semua peringkat kumpulan pendapatan, etnik, wilayah dan rantaian bekalan."Iltizam ini akan diteruskan ke arah mengukuhkan kestabilan politik dan meningkatkan kemakmuran negara serta memastikan rakyat bersatu padu tanpa prasangka dengan meraikan kepelbagaian bangsa dan budaya sebagai asas penyatuan negara bangsa."

Seperti dasar ekonomi sebelum ini seperti Dasar Ekonomi Baru (DEB), WKB2030 ialah dokumen dasar kerajaan, bukan panduan kaedahnya. Ia akan menjadi panduan untuk kerajaan merangka dasar ekonomi untuk sepuluh tahun akan datang.

Kementerian dan jabatan kerajaan perlu merangka dan melaksana perancangan untuk mencapai sasaran itu. Strategi pelaksanaan mungkin akan digariskan dalam Rancangan Malaysia akan datang.

Pertumbuhan ekonomi Malaysia ketinggalan berbanding Asia Timur kerana kebergantungan terhadap komoditi eksport yang harganya tidak stabil. Tidak seperti ekonomi Asia Timur, penggunaan teknologi tinggi di Malaysia masih rendah.

Kerajaan juga berdepan jurang pendapatan yang semakin melebar antara majikan dengan pekerja, kelas, wilayah dan kaum.

Penyertaan bumiputera masih tidak memadai dalam sektor profesional, perusahaan kecil dan sederhana dan sumbangan pendapatan langsung dalam Keluaran Dalam Negara Kasar (KDNK). Sumbangan bumiputera kepada KDNK, jika tidak mengambil kira syarikat berkaitan kerajaan (GLC), dilaporkan pada kadar 28 peratus pada 2014.

Sementara DEB menumpukan untuk merapatkan jurang kekayaan dan peluang sama rata, prinsip di belakang WKB2030 ialah pertumbuhan ekonomi melalui "kesaksamaan keberhasilan".

Menurut dokumen itu, DEB ialah dasar afirmatif yang menambahkan kekayaan sejumlah bumiputera tetapi tidak mencapai matlamat asalnya.

"Ketirisan dalam pelaksanaan dasar (DEB), penyalahgunaan kuasa dan rasuah merupakan cabaran utama dalam mencapai kesaksamaan keberhasilan dalam agenda bumiptera.

"Sehubungan itu, pendekatan dasar, intervensi dan program yang lebih komprehensif dalam mencapai kesaksamaan keberhasilan adalah penting bagi mencapai matlamat WKB kepada semua kumpulan pendapatan, etnik, wilayah dan rantaian bekalan," kata dokumen itu.

Bagaimanapun kesaksamaan keberhasilan hanyalah satu daripada 15 prinsip panduan WKB2030.

Dari segi pendapatan penengah isi rumah, nisbah antara bumiputera dengan kaum Cina ialaih 0.74:1. Nisbah antara India dengan Cina pula ialah 0.81:1.

WKB2030 ingin mengurangkan jurang tersebut kepada hampir setara (0.9:1:1).

Ada tujuh teras strategik dan sejumlah cadangan bagaimana ia dapat dilaksana. Dokumen itu juga menggariskan lapan "pemboleh daya" berkenaan cara kerajaan boleh berperanan untuk mencapai strategi itu.

Adakah Dokumen Ini Terhad Kepada Golongan Bumiputera Sahaja?

jika kita rujuk kepada Bab sembilan khusus untuk "keberhasilan bumiputera".

"Keberhasilan bumiputera perlu diberi keutamaan serta diterapkan secara sistematik dalam setiap teras strategik dan pemboleh ubah untuk mencapai matlamat WKB.

"Golongan bumiputera perlu mengambil inisiatif untuk melakukan perubahan minda dan sikap yang drastik dengan menunjukkan iltizam yang kuat bagi meningkatkan produktiviti bumiputera," kata dokumen itu.

Dalam aspek hala tuju, matlamat WKB2030 adalah untuk kerajaan merangka dasar bagi menangani amalan diskriminasi terhadap pekerja bumiputera dalam sektor swasta dan perniagaan bumiputera.

Matlamat lain termasuk memecahkam monopoli, menggalakkan pemilikan hartanah di kawasan bandar dan pembangunan ekonomi di Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu, Sabah dan Sarawak.

Adakah ia menetapkan lebih banyak tindakan afirmatif?

Tidak. Istilah "tindakan afirmatif" hanya disebut dua kali dalam dokumen itu, dan dengan nada negatif.

Bagaimanapun, salah satu prinsip panduan WKB2030 ialah "pendekatan ekonomi keperluan", yang mengutamakan perangkaan dasar berasaskan target demografik yang khusus.

Secara spesifik, pendekatan ini memerlukan penakrifan semula "kemiskinan".

Wawasan WKB2030 akan diterjemahkan kepada strategi dan tindakan yang akan dijajarkan dalam Rancangan Malaysia ke-12 yang akan diumumkan pada tahun hadapan,

Saya berharap pelan yang dirangka dapat mencapai matlamat. 15 Teras yang disenaraikan didalam Konteks WKB2030 mampu menjana sokongan rakyat. Pencapaian ini akan diukur mengikut keberkesanan perlaksanaan di akar umbi. Perpaduan dan Patriotisma menjadi tunjang kemenangan prestasi pencapaian. Saya berhara wawasan ini bukan lah seperti yang diimpikan sewaktu wawasan 2020 dan TN 50 dirangka. ia menjadi sejarah yang tidak dapat dicapai. mekanisma atau feasibility yang terdapat dalam Pelan ini mampu mengerakkan kearah kemenangan besar.

LAPORAN TINJAUAN: KAJIAN RANCANGAN STRUKTUR NEGERI SELANGOR 2035

 


LAPORAN TINJAUAN: KAJIAN RANCANGAN STRUKTUR NEGERI SELANGOR 2035

Can Young People Can Help Solve Youth Challenges ?

1. Juvenile delinquency:

As we all know that the teenage behavior is extremely problematic and unpredictable too. There are many who are caught red-handed with petty crimes like arms conflicts, illicit affairs, substance abuse and various others. The status of urbanized women is also challenged; we come across various cases of MMS blackmails, rapes, murders and theft.

2. Poverty:

Although it’s a shameful to say but we have to declare that sections of Indiaare still poorest of poor. Even after years of being categorized as a developing country, we could not replace the label with developed country. Most of the homes cannot afford have good health and hygiene. Poverty is really killing us and youths are also getting victimized.

3. Inadequate employment opportunities:

In yesteryears, education was not everyone’s forte. Those, who really had the knack for it, pursued it. But today, the scenario is different; everyone is studying along with full-fledged facilities. In the past, even a high school pass-out or simple graduates would find work and live contentedly. In those days, one would not necessarily need to have a college degree to survive. But in today’s times, youngsters with multiple degrees are unable to find work with good pay, to afford a decent lifestyle.

4. Education Disparity:

Education is a priority and everyone’s birthright. We will not find any sound head, who will dispute this well regarded fact. A good education is like a boon in one’s life, opening up a host of opportunities. Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not debating over good school or bad school, rather talking of a value-based proper education system, and the discrimination in educational quality, which is categorized by financial status.

5. Obesity:

Recent trends show that approximately 25% kids are obese in India. There is a thin line between being chubby and being obese. Why so? What went wrong? Who’s to blame? There are several questions which instantly pop up. Video games, TV, the internet and fast food can be blamed partially. Today, kids are spending more time watching TV, surfing the internet than running around. This sedentary lifestyle has dangerous consequences. The saddest thing is that they can feel socially awkward or being ridiculed by their peers. Apart from obesity-related health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, other side-effects are low self-esteem, depression, etc.

6. Materialism:

It is sad but a bitter fact that we live in a society that promotes materialism. And we unknowingly encourage and instill this philosophy into our children. Surprisingly we teach our children that the success and happiness in life is measured by how much stuff or wealth you acquire? It is nothing but natural when kids ask for things which their friends may have. But instead of fulfilling their demands immediately, we should take a pause and think seriously. In which direction we are heading? Never mind, we satiate their demands which are within our financial limit, but that is not a good sign at all.

7. Violence in schools:

When we send our kids to school, we usually take a sigh of relief. Schools play a major role in teaching life skills to young minds and their endeavor must be recognized. It is reasonable to expect that these sacred places of learning would prove as safe havens for children. But increasing cases of crime in school makes us lose our sleep. No, these are no minor cases of bullying but serious full-fledged crimes like stabbings, fighting and suicides.

8. Early Maturity:

In earlier generations, kids enjoyed being kids. But today, with the advent of satellite television and internet, kids are bombarded with unwanted information. They are exposed to some adult-related content too, which is not at all conducive for their delicate minds. The concept of childhood becomes problematic.

9. Substance abuse:

“A cigarette in my hand…I felt like a man.” Yes…..the famous anti-smoking campaign by Gary Lawyer did manage to scare smoking to some extent. Leave aside the society, cigarette smoking is not even justified in the world of cinema now. Smoking was cool, back then. But nowadays, the awareness to the danger of smoking has increased substantially. Unfortunately it is not the same in case of drinking and using drugs. They are still assumed as cool stuff. Youngsters literally hang around booze. Apart from damaging their own health, they also risk the society. Under the influence of alcohol, these brats will rash drive and do several other anti-social activities.

10. Single parent households:

When kids see their parents living under different roofs, their adolescent mind suffers. Since last two decades, we have noticed the disastrous increase in single parent homes. The trend is dangerous. It is really tough to look after a child in divided home. The situation is far more difficult when kids are raised single-handedly. Even if it does not matter to well-heeled parent, but the children gets deprived of parental guidance, which may result in an unwanted number of problems, such as alcohol/drug abuse, school dropout, and teenage pregnancies.

How Political Is Your Workplace?

1. Analyze the Organization Chart

Office politics often circumvent the formal organizational structure. So, sit back and observe for a while, and then map the political power and influence in your organization, rather than people's rank or job title. To do this, ask yourself questions like, "Who are the real influencers?," "Who has authority but tends not to exercise it?," "Who is respected?," "Who champions or mentors others?," and "Who is the brains behind the business?"

2. Understand the Informal Network

Once you know where the power and influence lie, it's time to examine people's interactions and relationships to understand the informal or social networks. Watch closely (but discreetly and respectfully) to find out who gets along with who, and who finds it more difficult to interact with others. Look for in-groups, out-groups or cliques. Notice whether connections are based on friendship, respect, romance, or something else. Finally, try to decipher how influence flows between the parties, and whether there are any interpersonal conflicts, or examples of bullying.

3. Build Connections

Now that you know how existing relationships work, you can start to build your own social network. Look beyond your immediate team, and cross the formal hierarchy in all directions – co-workers, managers and executives. Don't be afraid of politically powerful people. Instead, get to know them, and build high-quality connections that avoid empty flattery. Be friendly with everyone, but avoid aligning yourself too closely with one group or another. And, if you're considering a personal relationship at work be certain to base it on consent, to avoid any suggestion of illegal or inappropriate influence, and to never break confidentiality.

4. Develop Your "People Skills"

As we've seen, politics are all about people, so strong Interpersonal Skills will stand you in good stead when it comes to building and maintaining your network. Reflect on your emotions, what prompts them, and how you handle them. If you can learn to self-regulate, you'll be able to think before you act. This kind of emotional intelligence helps you to pick up on other people's emotions, too, and to understand what kind of approach they like or dislike. Learn to listen carefully, too. When you invest time in listening, you'll slow down, focus, and learn. And, people like people who listen to them!

5. Make the Most of Your Network

Through your relationships, you can build your personal brand and raise your team's profile when you communicate your achievements to your connections, they might open up opportunities to "shine" for you, your team, and your boss. They can also act as a "bridge" between you and other colleagues.

WARNING !!!  :

Exercise caution when you leverage your network in this way – you don't want to get a reputation as a "pest!" Always keep your organization's goals in mind, and don't "badmouth" others, or you'll make more enemies than friends. Instead, become known for using "positive political action. “also crucial to be accountable for your actions. This demonstrates your honesty and integrity. So ask for feedback from others who may have a different perspective on your work. This is a good way to find out what's most important to the people in your network, and it shows that you value their opinions.

6. Be Brave – but Not Naive

Your first instinct may be to keep your distance from people who practice "bad" politics. In fact, the opposite can be more effective. The expression, "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer," often applies to office politics. So, get to know the gossips and manipulators better. Be courteous but guarded, as they may repeat what you say with a negative "spin." Try to understand their goals, so that you can avoid or counter the impact of their negative politicking. And be aware that some people behave badly because they feel insecure – this is a form of self-sabotage However, protect yourself as much as possible from anyone you suspect of Machiavellianism or another of the Dark Triad of characteristics. Such people are very likely clever and dangerous.

7. Neutralize Negative Politics

You can help to make a workplace become more positive by not "fuelling the fire" and joining in negative politics. For example, avoid passing on rumors without taking time to carefully consider their source, credibility and impact. And don't rely on confidentiality. It's safer to assume that whatever you say will be repeated, so choose carefully what "secrets" you reveal. Remain professional at all times, and don't take sides, or get sucked into arguments or recriminations. When a conflict arises, remember that there doesn't have to be a winner and a loser. It's often possible to find a solution that satisfies everyone. If you're voicing concerns or criticism of your own, be confident and assertive but not aggressive. And make sure that you take an organizational perspective, and not simply a selfish one.
