Project Malaysia
Was created to respond to a need for solution-driven, informed opinions on issues affecting Malaysian society as a whole.
In the post March 8th climate, the unrelenting need to be informed and to engage in critical discourse to create a concrete understanding among Malaysians of all walks of life has been apparent. Blogs, news and news analysis sites have been set up to supply information to Malaysians who are now seeking out more sources of information. Civil society is empowered by the knowledge that information, is indeed power.
As more and more Malaysians get connected to the World Wide Web, Project Malaysia aims to capitalise on this 'thirst' by providing a platform for analysis and commentaries by distinguished personalities and specialists, who can comment on the very real issues affecting our nation. These will include expert opinions from academics, law practitioners, members of Parliament and most importantly, concerned Malaysians.
In the course of 12 months, Project Malaysia will identify 12 keys issues and/or areas that require immediate attention and remedy. Through these essays and commentaries, we aim to inform and persuade readers as well as writers, to engage with the Malaysian audience at large - in seeking viable solutions for this non-profit, nation building exercise.
