Rukun Tetangga

Daripada Wikipedia, ensiklopedia bebas.

Rukun Tetangga merupakan satu program sukarela yang bertujuan untuk membantu dalam pembangunan masyarakat setempat diMalaysia. Konsep program ini hampir sama seperti Neighbourhood Watch seperti yang diamalkan di United Kingdom. Sehingga Mei 2006 sebanyak 3,228 Kawasan Rukun Tetangga (KRT) telah ditubuhkan di seluruh negara [1].

Sejarah[sunting | sunting sumber]

Rukun Tetangga telah ditubuhkan oleh kerajaan Malaysia pada tahun 1975 asalnya untuk menjamin keselamatan penduduk setempat [2]. Satu akta yang dikenali sebagai Peraturan Rukun Tetangga 1975 (P.U. (A) 279/75) [3] telah diluluskan untuk memberikan kuasa-kuasa tertentu kepada pertubuhan tersebut. Pada 1984, fokus pertubuhan ini bertukar kepada merapatkan hubungan di antara pelbagai kaum di Malaysia. Kemudian pada 2001, fokus program ini sekali lagi bertukar kepada fokus sekarang, iaitu pembangunan masyarakat setempat. Contoh Kawasan Rukun Tetangga : KRT Desa Anggerik, Putra Nilai, Nilai, 71800, Negeri Sembilan.[[1]]

Peranan[sunting | sunting sumber]

Peranan utama Rukun Tetangga ialah menganjurkan kumpulan-kumpulan rondaan yang bertugas pada waktu malam untuk mengurangkan kegiatan jenayah di sekitar kawasan kejiranan. Anggota kumpulan rondaan biasanya dianggotai oleh ahli-ahli masyarakat di kawasan kejiranan tersebut. Selain itu, setiap KRT digalakkan menganjurkan seberapa banyak kegiatan berbentuk kemasyarakatan, kebajikan dan pendidikan selain program meningkatkan perpaduan dan integrasi kaum.

Sejarah[sunting | sunting sumber]

Permulaan awal (19992003)[sunting | sunting sumber]
MERCY Malaysia telah diasaskan oleh Dr Jemilah Mahmood pada tahun 1999 sebagai tindak balas kepada konflik di Kosovo. Memandangkan tiada pertubuhan yang sedia ada yang boleh menerima beliau sebagai seorang sukarela untuk memberikan perkhidmatan perubatan di sana , beliau dan sekumpulan rakan-rakan mendaftar MERCY Malaysia dengan Pendaftar Pertubuhan dengan objektif untuk memberi bantuan perubatan [1]. Bekerja dengan Helping Hands USA [2], MERCY Malaysia kemudian menghantar sebanyak lima misi ke Kosova untuk menyediakan penjagaan perubatan bergerak. Pada tahun yang sama , MERCY Malaysia menghantar pasukan bantuan kepada Turki sebagai tindak balas kepada gempa bumi di Izmit. Pada tahun 2000, MERCY Malaysia menyediakan bantuan perubatan kepada Orang Buangan Dalam (Internally Displaced Persons) kerana konflik di Maluku, Indonesia. Tahun berikutnya melihat MERCY Malaysia memberi bantuan keperluan perubatan kepada mereka yang terselamat dari gempa bumi di Gujarat. Pada tahun yang sama, MERCY Malaysia memberi bantuan kepada mereka yang terselamat dari banjir di Kemboja [3] di Kampong Cham[4]. Pada bulan Oktober 2001, MERCY

Malaysia telah menghantar satu pasukan ke Afghanistan untuk berkhidmat kepada pelarian di kem-kem pelarian. [5] Pada tahun 2002, MERCY Malaysia terus menyampaikan perubatan dan mengembangkan operasinya di sepanjang jalan. Pertubuhan ini meneruskan kehadirannya di Kabul,
[6]

dan kemudian memperluaskan

operasinya di Afghanistan untuk menjalankan satu-satunya pusat perubatan di Spin Buldak[7], iaitu satu kawasan terpencil yang terletak kira-kira 100km dari Kandahar. MERCY Malaysia juga melancarkan Tabung Bantuan Kemboja untuk terus menyokong usaha-usaha bantuan akibat banjir di Mekong.
[8]

Pertubuhan itu

juga mula menerima pengiktirafan dan mengumpul dana dan derma yang meningkat daripada pihak luar kerana ia bertindak balas kepada keperluan di Palestin.
[9]

Pada tahun 2003, Mercy Malaysia memberi tindakbalas kepada keperluan di Baghdad, Iraq dan menghantar pasukan pertama pada bulan Januari [10]. Pada bulan Februari, MERCY Malaysia melancarkan Tabung Kemanusiaan China dan menghantar satu pasukan sebagai tindakbalas kepada gempa bumi yang menerima magnitud 6.8 skala Richter yang melanda kawasan terpencil di wilayah Xinjiang di barat laut China, berhampiran sempadan dengan Kyrgyzstan dan Tajikistan [11]. Pada bulan April 2003, pasukan MERCY Malaysia disalah-anggap sebagai anasir ganas dan telah diserang di Iraq, di mana Dr Baba Deni dan Dr Jemilah telah cedera dalam kejadian itu [12]. Mei 2003 menyaksikan MERCY Malaysia bertindakbalas kepada rayuan antarabangsa dari Sri Lanka selepas negara itu mengalami banjir dan tanah runtuh yang paling buruk dalam tempoh 60 tahun [13] Satu pasukan terdiri dari enam orang telah dikerahkan ke selatan Sri Lanka untuk memberi bantuan perubatan dan kemanusiaan kritikal kepada mangsa banjir dan tanah runtuh di Ratnapura, yang terletak kira-kira 100km tenggara dari ibu negara di Colombo. Tahun ini ditamatkan dengan misi ke Kerman, Iran berikutan gempa bumi Bam yang berlaku pada 26 Disember 2003[14]. Sembilan orang -termasuk Dr Bubble, seorang doktor badut - menyediakan sokongan perubatan dan psikososial kepada mangsa gempa bumi, dan telah ditempatkan di bekas Hospital Lapangan Itali di Baravat, 5 km dari Bam.
[15]

Titik perubahan (2004)[sunting | sunting sumber]

Pada awal tahun 2004, MERCY Malaysia terus bekerja dalam zon konflik, dan melancarkan kempen mengumpul dana dengan kerjasama Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia untuk menyediakan beg sekolah untuk kanak-kanak di negara-negara yang dilanda perang seperti Palestin, Afghanistan dan Iraq
[16]

MERCY Malaysia memperuntukkan RM1 juta bagi Iraq khususnya dalam bantuan perubatan dan kemanusiaan, dan telah bekerjasama dengan Islamic Relief untuk mengangkut tiga trak bantuan kemanusiaan ke Falluja [17] MERCY Malaysia juga bertindakbalas kepada rayuan Korea Utara untuk bantuan antarabangsa berikutan perlanggaran kereta api dan letupan di Ryongchon [18] di mana tiga ahli pasukan telah membawa bekalan perubatan bernilai RM50,000.

Pada tahun 2004 , pertubuhan ini mula mendapat pengiktirafan yang lebih untuk kerja kemanusiaannya, di mana ia menerima lima pencalonan bagi Anugerah Kemanusiaan NSTP- PwC Young, [19] dan pada bulan Julai, Dr Jemilah Mahmood telah dilantik menjadi presiden pertama Persekutuan Kebangsaan Badan Bukan Kerajaan untuk Bantuan Bencana Malaysia (NFNDRM) [20] Dalam bulan yang sama, MERCY Malaysia memberi tindakbalas kepada permintaan daripada agensi Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (PBB) untuk memberikan bantuan perubatan kepada pelarian di Sudan[21]. Selepas penilaian awal, MERCY Malaysia memulakan pengumpulan dana untuk Klinik Kesihatan Bersalin dan Kanak-kanak untuk wanita di El-Geneina di Darfur Barat [22]. Di samping itu, MERCY Malaysia juga membina tempat perlindungan untuk saudara-mara pesakit di Hospital El-Geneina, serta membina pusat makan untuk memenuhi keperluan pemakanan pesakit[23]. Sementara itu, dengan kedatangan musim sejuk di Falluja, kerja amal diteruskan dengan penghantaran barang-barang keperluan kepadaOrang Buangan Dalam (IDP) di sana, dan MERCY Malaysia juga menyudahkan pembaikan Hospital Ibn Al-Quff dan Hospital Pengajaran Pediatrik Al-Mansoor di Iraq[24]. Satu lagi projek pembinaan semula yang berjaya di Bam, Iran, juga telah dirasmikan. Satu pusat kesihatan yang baru yang dibiayai oleh rakyat dan kerajaan Malaysia, telah direka untuk menampung 130,000 orang di bandar ini dan merawat sehingga 200 pesakit sehari. [25]. Awal Disember 2004 menyaksikan MERCY Malaysia bertindakbalas kepada keperluan kemanusiaan di Filipina untuk membantu mangsa-mangsa ribut tropika yang telah meninggalkan kira-kira 1,000 mati[26]. Gempa bumi dan tsunami Lautan Hindi 2004 adalah titik perubahan utama untuk MERCY Malaysia. "Kami organisasi antarabangsa pertama tiba (di Aceh) dan ia telah dihebahkan oleh media antarabangsa. Tiba-tiba, orang menyedari wujudnya MERCY Malaysia," sebut Dr Jemilah[27]. Pasukan MERCY Malaysia dihantar ke Aceh [28] dan Sri Lanka[29], di samping membantu mangsa tsunami di dalam negara di Pulau Pinang, Malaysia[30]. Sebuah buku telah dilancarkan pada tahun 2005, bertajuk "A Time To Heal: A Reflection of Mercy Malaysia's Response to the Indian Ocean Tsunami" [31] untuk memperingati bencana yang melanda pada 26 Dis 2004. Buku tersebut mengimbau pengalaman sukarelawan dan pekerja MERCY Malaysia yang bertugas di Malaysia, wilayah Aceh, Indonesia dan Sri Lanka.

Tempoh Pertumbuhan Mendadak (2005-2007)[sunting | sunting sumber]

Awal tahun 2005 telah dipenuhi dengan aktiviti kemanusiaan akibat tsunami, dan MERCY Malaysia sedia mengakui skala bencana telah menjangkaui operasi mereka kepada hadnya
[32]

. Sokongan orang ramai adalah

amat menggalakkan, dan derma mengalir dalam bentuk bantuan kewangan dan juga sumbangan barangan seperti beg mayat [33] dan pakaian. Kutipan barangan derma menjadi tidak terurus pada satu tahap apabila barangan tidak relevan dan tidak boleh digunakan didermakan, dan MERCY Malaysia terpaksa merayu kepada orang ramai supaya tidak melihat organisasi sebagai tempat pembuangan barangan yang tidak diingini [34]. Sebagai sebahagian daripada usaha pembinaan semula bagi mangsa tsunami, MERCY Malaysia telah

membina rumah tahan-seismik untuk pelarian dari Kampong Weu Raya dan Sebun Ayu di Lhok Nga, samping membina semula Pusat Kesihatan Komuniti Meuraxa di Banda Aceh[36].

[35]

di

Pembinaan semula rumah-rumah bagi penduduk Kampong Weu Raya terbukti menjadi satu pengalaman pembelajaran yang baik untuk MERCY Malaysia. Mengenal pasti sempadan sebenar adalah satu tugas yang sukar, penduduk kampung yang terselamat perlu menggaris kembali plot tanah di mana rumah mereka dulu [37]. Apabila pembinaan bermula, pasukan binaan yang terdiri dari 30 penduduk kampung dan 180 pekerja binaan dari Medan berjaya membina pada kadar satu rumah sehari, dengan menggunakan kayu meranti dan konkrit. Walaupun pada asalnya direka seluas 36 meter persegi, setiap unit kemudiannya dibina kepada 52 meter persegi. Ketidakpuasan hati timbul di kalangan penduduk kampung yang mahu rumah-rumah batu atau reka bentuk yang berbeza berbanding NGO lain. Sebagai kampung telah dibina semula pada tapak asal - kira-kira 20 minit dari pusat bandar Banda Aceh di kawasan barat laut pantai - ia terus terdedah kepada bencana pada masa depan. Langkah-langkah persediaan diperlukan, dan laluan melarikan diri dari tsunami telah direka untuk membimbing penduduk kampung ke arah laluan paling cepat untuk lebih selamat ke kawasan tinggi . Secara keseluruhan, MERCY Malaysia berjaya menyiapkan 16 projek pembangunan bernilai RM18.5 juta hasil dana yang dikumpulkan akibat tsunami:

Bangunan Program Akademi Jururawat, Fakulti Kedoktoran Universiti Syiah Kuala (Unisyiah) yang ditaja sepenuhnya oleh Petroliam Nasional Bhd. (Petronas). Bangunan ini dinamakan Gedung Petronas.

Rumah anak yatim Kayee Kunyit di Aceh Besar yang ditaja oleh Yayasan Shamsuddin Abdul Kadir di bawah Kumpulan Sapura.

Pembinaan semula kem pemindahan dalaman (IDP) Desa Weu Raya; rumah penempatan semula Desa Seubun Ayun dan rumah utama Desa Weu Raya.

Menyiapkan Pusat Anak Yatim Daruzzahidin di Kuta Baro, rumah anak yatim Babun Najah di Ulee Kareng, dan Pusat Anak Yatim Sukamakmur di Sibreh.

Pembinaan Sekolah Menengah Umum Lhoknga, Akademi Perawat Jabatan Kesihatan, Akademi Farmasi Dinas Kesihatan, Pusat Kesihatan Masyarakat Meuraxa dan Pusat Kesihatan Masyarakat Panga, Aceh Jaya.

Pada bulan Mac, MERCY Malaysia bertindak balas kepada Sumatera gempa bumi 2005 yang melanda pulaupulau Nias [38] Bulan Oktober menyaksikan pertubuhan bertindak balas kepada gempa bumi Kashmir 2005 yang melanda Kashmir yang ditadbir Pakistan dikenali sebagai Azad Kashmir, berhampiran bandar Muzaffarabad [39]. Sebuah hospital lapangan adalah ditubuhkan, dan lebih daripada tujuh pasukan telah dihantar untuk berkhidmat dan menyokong lebih 400,000 penduduk Bagh
[41] [40]

yang terselamat di bandar terpencil di

MERCY Malaysia turut memberi bantuan ketika banjir melanda Johor, Pahang, Melaka pada 19 Disember 2006 - Januari 2007.

2008 dan seterusnya[sunting | sunting sumber]

Pada tahun 2008, Mercy Malaysia juga bertindak balas ke Myanmar untuk membantu mereka yang terselamat dari Taufan Nargis. [42] Pada 25 Januari 2009, MERCY Malaysia menghantar pasukan pakar perubatan ketujuh ke Semenanjung Gaza. Dr Ahmad Faizal Perdaus menyatakan infrastruktur dan kemudahan kesihatan di Gaza mengalami kerosakan teruk, dan bekalan perubatan dan ubat-ubatan bernilai USD400,000 (USD1 = RM3.62) telah dihantar. [43]. Pada tahun yang sama, MERCY Malaysia menghantar pasukan dua anggota ke Padang, Indonesia untuk bertindak balas terhadap gempa bumi Sumatera Barat. [44] Pada 3 Ogos 2009, Dato' Dr Ahmad Faizal Mohd. Perdaus mengambil alih jawatan Presiden MERCY Malaysia dari Tan Sri Dr Jemilah Mahmood. [45] Pada tahun 2010, MERCY Malaysia bekerjasama dengan Merlin UK untuk menghantar bantuan dalam Haiti. Mereka juga bertindak balas secara langsung dalam fasa kecemasan kepada gempa bumi di Chile di samping banjir di Pakistan. Pada tahun 2011, MERCY Malaysia menghantar pasukan ke Somalia , gempa bumi melanda Turki dan juga untuk membantu mereka yang terjejas oleh banjir di Thailand. Pada tahun 2012, Mercy Malaysia telah menghantar pasukan ke Rakhine , Myanmar , di mana mereka diedarkan barangan (bukan makanan) dan klinik bergerak ditubuhkan untuk membantu mereka yang terjejas, di samping menghantar bantuan kepada Mindanao,Filipina untuk bertindak balas terhadap mereka yang terjejas oleh Ribut Tropika Washi dan Taufan Bopha. Mereka juga telah menghantar pasukan penilaian mereka untuk membantu pelarian Syria di sana. Untuk menyokong semua aktiviti tersebut, MERCY Malaysia turut melancarkan usaha pertama rasmi dalam pembiayaan mampan di bawah panji-panji Seringgit Sehari.

Struktur pentadbiran[sunting | sunting sumber]

Dalam mematuhi Akta Pertubuhan, MERCY Malaysia mengemukakan akaunnya kepada juruaudit luar, menerbitkan Laporan Tahunan untuk semakan dan mengadakan Mesyuarat Agung Tahunan untuk semua ahli, biasanya pada bulan Jun setiap tahun. [46] Struktur dan tadbir urus pertubuhan itu digariskan di dalam Perlembagaan MERCY Malaysia.
[47]

Penaung[sunting | sunting sumber]

Penaung MERCY Malaysia adalah Duli Yang Maha Mulia Paduka Seri Sultan Azlan Shah dari Perak. Mengikut Perkara 17 di dalam Perlembagaan, "Seorang Penaung Persatuan, tertakluk kepada persetujuan beliau, hendaklah seorang yang terpilih yang dilantik oleh resolusi Mesyuarat Agung."

Lembaga Pemegang Amanah[sunting | sunting sumber]

MERCY Malaysia kini mempunyai enam pemegang amanah di Lembaga

[48]

Tan Sri Dato 'Ajit Singh, bekas Diplomat Malaysia kini berkhidmat sebagai Pengerusi Lembaga Pengarah. Mengikut Perkara 16 di dalam Perlembagaan, pemegang amanah diberi kuasa untuk "memastikan tadbir urus yang baik untuk Persatuan termasuk, tetapi tidak terhad kepada, perkara yang berkaitan dengan tadbir urus, kesihatan kewangan, audit dan pengurusan aset Persatuan." Oleh kerana MERCY Malaysia bukan sebuah syarikat berdaftar, keupayaan untuk memperoleh aset dihadkan oleh Akta Pertubuhan. Walau bagaimanapun, dengan peruntukan dalam Perkara 19, yang menggariskan skop Pelaburan Ke Arah Sara Diri, melalui Lembaga Pemegang Amanah, MERCY Malaysia "mempunyai kuasa untuk memiliki tanah, untuk memohon dan mendapatkan tanah, untuk pajakan, mengecas dan menyahcas tanah, mendirikan dan memiliki bangunan di atas tanah yang diperolehi."

Majlis Eksekutif[sunting | sunting sumber]

Mengikut Perkara 8 di dalam Perlembagaan , Majlis Eksekutif hendaklah terdiri daripada: 1. Seorang Presiden; yang hendaklah menjadi seorang Doktor Perubatan 2. Dua orang Naib Presiden, di mana Naib Presiden I adalah seseorang daripada bidang perubatan dan Naib Presiden II yang bukan dari bidang perubatan; 3. Seorang Setiausaha Kehormat; 4. Seorang Penolong Setiausaha Kehormat; 5. Seorang Bendahari Kehormat; 6. Tiga orang ahli Majlis Biasa di mana sekurang-kurangnya seorang daripadanya hendaklah merupakan seseorang daripada bidang perubatan.

Ahli Persatuan[sunting | sunting sumber]

Menurut Perkara 6, terdapat dua jenis keahlian yang membolehkan hak mengundi dalam Mesyuarat Agung Tahunan; Ahli Biasa dan Ahli Seumur Hidup. Perbezaannya ditakrifkan dalam yuran yang dibayar kepada pertubuhan. Satu lagi jenis keahlian yang boleh didapati adalah Ahli Kehormat. Kategori ini bertujuan memberi penghormatan kepada individu yang secara langsung atau tidak langsung menyumbang kepada objektif pertubuhan, dan pencalonan dibuat oleh Majlis Eksekutif. Ahli Kehormat tidak berhak untuk mengundi dalam Mesyuarat Agung Tahunan.

Sekretariat[sunting | sunting sumber]

Mengikut Perkara 11, "Persatuan hendaklah mempunyai suatu Sekretariat yang terdiri daripada Pengarah Eksekutif dan beberapa pegawai, semua bekerja di bawah Persatuan sama ada sebagai pekerja tetap atau kontrak. "

Sekretariat bertanggungjawab bagi melaksanakan keputusan yang dibuat oleh Majlis Eksekutif, di mana Pengarah Eksekutif melaporkan kepada Majlis Eksekutif secara berkala. Untuk mengelakkan konflik kepentingan, tiada anggota Majlis Eksekutif akan pada masa yang sama bekerja sebagai anggota Sekretariat. Perbezaan ini juga perlu oleh kerana Majlis Eksekutif dilantik oleh ahli Persatuan. Pegawai-pegawai di Sekretariat bekerja di bawah pertubuhan, dan oleh itu hubungan mereka dengan organisasi ditadbir oleh kontrak pekerjaan mereka dan Akta Kerja 1955.

Akauntabiliti[sunting | sunting sumber]

Pada tahun 2004, MERCY Malaysia mula memaparkan laporan kewangannya kepada orang ramai melalui penerbitan laporan tahunan.[49] Pertubuhan itu juga memenangi Sebutan Khas oleh ACCA Malaysia pada Anugerah Laporan Sosial dan Alam Sekitar (MESRA) untuk Laporan Sosial oleh sebuah NGO, bagi tahun 2006 [50] dan 2007[51]. Pada tahun 2007, MERCY Malaysia menjadi NGO ketiga di dunia (dan pertama di Asia) untuk mendapatkan pensijilan dari Humanitarian Accountability Partnership (HAP)[52] Bagi menyelaras bantuan perubatan dan kemanusiaan, MERCY Malaysia telah menggunapakai beberapa kaedah seperti Sphere Standard. Sphere Standard merupakan penentu keperluan minimum mangsa bencana. Ini termasuklah penilaian tahap kesihatan, nutrisi, air, kebersihan serta tempat tinggal. 60 agensi kemanusiaan telah menggunakan pelbagai piawai sejak 10 tahun yang lalu. Piawai penilaian juga dibuat oleh Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu, Persatuan Palang Merah dan Bulan Sabit Merah serta badan-badan bukan kerajaan. [53]

Sahabat Alam Malaysia (SAM) merupakan sebuah NGO di Malaysia yang ditubuhkan pada 1977 untuk memperjuangan kepentingan alam sekitar daripada ancaman manusia dan arus pembangunan negara. SAM telah menyertai Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) pada 1983, dan menerbitkan beberapa buku dan majalah berita. Peranan SAM meliputi kempen mengenai pencemaran, penggunaan tanah, penyah-hutanan, perikanan, tenaga, air, empangan, pertanian, hak orang asli dan perlancongan. Presidennya ialah S.M. Mohammad Idris dan bertapak di Pulau Pinang dan Sarawak.

Sungai Limau Hidrokarbon Hub[sunting | sunting sumber]

Pada 19 Januari 2010, S.M. Mohammad Idris selaku presiden SAM amat gembira dengan sikap prihatin Jabatan Alam Sekitar (JAS) tidak meluluskan projek penapisan minyak Sungai Limau Hidrokarbon Hub (SULIHH) di Yan, Kedah. Laporan kesan alam sekitar (EIA) yang dikemukakan syarikat-syarikat terbabit tidak memenuhi Seksyen 34A(2), Akta Kualiti Alam Sekeliling 1974. Projek kerjasama antara Merapoh Resources Sdn Bhd, Hong Kong Beijing Star Ltd., Winson Investment Ltd. dan SK Engineering and Construction Ltd. dari Korea itu bernilai RM36 bilion.

Persatuan Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia (PBSM) adalah satu pertubuhan sukarela yang ditubuhkan pada tahun 1948. Persatuan ini diiktiraf kerajaan Malaysia pada tahun 1957 danPersatuan Palang Merah Antarabangsa pada tahun 1963.

Sejarah[sunting | sunting sumber]

Persatuan Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia ditubuhkan pada tahun 1948 sebagai cawangan Persatuan Palang Merah Britain di Sabah dan Sarawak. Pada tahun 1950an, lebih banyak cawangan persatuan ditubuhkan di Malaysia bermula di Pulau Pinang pada tahun 1950 dan kemudian di negeri-negeri lain. Ketika kemerdekaan pada tahun 1957, cawangan di Semenanjung Malaysia dikenali sebagai Persatuan Palang Merah Persekutuan Tanah Melayu. Persatuan mendapat pengiktirafan oleh Persatuan Palang Merah Antarabangsa pada 4 Julai 1963 dan menjadi ahli badan antarabangsa itu pada 24 Ogos 1963. Berikutan penggabungan Semenanjung Tanah Melayu, Sabah dan Sarawak serta penubuhan Persekutuan Malaysia pada September 16, 1963, suatu penggubalan akta baru yang dikenali sebagai Akta Persatuan Palang Merah Malaysia (Penswastaan) Akta 1965 telah bertindak menggabungkan Persatuan Palang Merah Malaya dan cawangannya Persatuan Palang Merah di Sabah dan Sarawak dibawah nama baru iaitu Persatuan Palang Merah Malaysia. Ia dibentangkan di Parlimen dan digazetkan pada 1 Julai 1965. Pada 5 September 1975, Persatuan Palang Merah Malaysia telah ditukar nama kepada Persatuan Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia selaras dengan kebenaran penukaran nama Akta Persatuan Palang Merah Malaysia kepada Akta Persatuan Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia Akta 1975 oleh Parlimen Malaysia.

WAO Herstory

In 1979, the late Tun Tan Siew Sin was awarded the Tun Razak Award for his invaluable contribution to the country. He generously donated his cash award of RM 30,000 to establish a shelter for battered women and their children. A Protem committee, headed by Puan Sri E.N. Chong, had its first meeting in November 1981. It took 9 months to lay the groundwork and to form a core group of volunteers. These pioneer volunteers worked as a collective to formulate the operating principles of self help and self empowerment for battered women who turned to WAO for help. In June 1982, WAO received temporary registration as a society and a single storey house was rented as WAO's refuge and office premises. The Malay Mail published the first article about the planned Refuge. On a Saturday morning in September 1982, a call came in: "She has left her husband with her two children, could she stay for a while?" This woman and her two children were WAO's first residents.

WAO Vision and Mission

Vision To create a society that is free of violence against women Mission To promote and create respect, protection and fulfillment of equal rights for women. To work towards the elimination of discrimination against women, and to bring about equality between women and men. Philosophy The fundamental belief of Women's Aid Organisation (WAO) is that no one deserves to be battered. We believe that all human beings have the right to self determination and should have control over the conditions that shape their lives.

History[edit]
The history of St. John Ambulance in the present day Malaysia started in 1908 with the formation of St. John Ambulance Association ("SJAA") by a group of medical officers in the Colonial Medical Service; Capt. Dr. John Sutton Webster, Dr. Richard Desmond Fitzgerald and Mr. Arthur Mitchell Goodman were among the pioneers of St. John Ambulance activities in the then British Malaya. When the war clouds were gathering in 1938, the British Administration decided to form the St. John Ambulance Brigade ("SJAB") in all larger towns. By 1939, SJAB could be found in the Federated Malay States and Straits Settlements, plus the unfederated states of Kelantan, Johor andKedah. SJAB members were first recruited as stretcher-bearers. Once they were proficient, they attended first aid lectures. In early 1941, [1] regular meetings and air raid practices were held with the Air Raid Precaution Corps. In September 1941, the authorities introduced the Medical Auxiliary Service and all SJAB members were automatically drafted into this service. When the Japanese Forces raided the Malay Peninsula from 8 December 1941, the SJAB members did magnificent work in all the first aid posts. Many SJAB members withdraw to the south together with the British Forces as their towns were captured one after another by the Japanese Forces. Many more served in the Battle of Singapore and lost their lives for the Service of Mankind. St. John Ambulance was the only voluntary organisation in the Malay Peninsula that rendered [1] medical services before and during the Second World War. The return of the British after the end of the Second World War has resulted in the re-organisation of many institutions and that contributed to the expansion of SJAA and SJAB in Malaya and North Borneo. In a move to further strengthen the operations of SJAA and SJAB, particularly after the independence of Malaya in 1957 and the subsequent merger between Malaya, Sabah and Sarawak (to form Malaysia) in 1963, the Government of Malaysia decided to amalgamate SJAA and SJAB in Malaya, Sabah and Sarawak into one Corporation known as the St. John Ambulance of Malaysia. This was made possible

with the passing of the St. John Ambulance of Malaysia (Incorporation) Act, 1972 by the Federal [2] Parliament. The Royal Assent was granted on 23 March 1972.

Leadership and Governance[edit]

The present leadership and governance structure of SJAM was established following the enactment of St. John Ambulance of Malaysia (Incorporation) Act, 1972 (including its subsidiary legislations). The Yang di-Pertuan Agong is the Royal Patron of SJAM. The appointment is currently held by the reigning monarch, Almu'tasimu Billahi Muhibbudin Tuanku Alhaj Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah ibni Almarhum Sultan Badlishah, KStJ. The affairs of SJAM are governed by the St. John Council of Malaysia, presided by the National President and the Deputy National President. By law, the roles are automatically conferred to the Prime Minister of Malaysia and the Minister of Health, Malaysiarespectively and, they are respectively held by Dato' Sri Mohd. Najib bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak and Datuk Seri Dr. Subramaniam Sathasivam at present. Membership of the Council consists of principal officers of SJAM, representatives from various Federal ministries and agencies, as well as individuals of high standing who are independent. Day-to-day management affairs rests with the Commander-in-Chief, who is also the Chairman of Council.
[2] [3]

Organisational Structure[edit]
SJAM is headed by a Commander-in-Chief. Appointed by the National President, he is responsible to the Council as the chief executive of the Corporation, assisted by a Deputy Commander-in-Chief. The appointment of Commander-in-Chief is currently held by Dato' Dr. Low Bin Tick, KStJ whereas his deputy is Prof. Datuk Dr. Haji Megat Burhainuddin bin Megat Abdul Rahman, CStJ. SJAM has two main areas of activity, as follows: Operations: SJAM provides volunteer first aid services at events and emergencies. In metropolitan areas, SJAM provides emergency medical assistance service through a combination of paid staff and volunteers. As the service wing of SJAM, the Operations Wing is responsible for the training, development and management of volunteers in first aid and pre-hospital care. The Operations Wing at the National Headquarters is headed by Dato' Lai See Ming, KStJ, Chief-of-Staff (Operations). Training:: SJAM is a leading first aid training provider in Malaysia. The Training Wing offers a wide range of training programme on first aid and advanced topics to the public besides providing technical assistance to support the training and development needs and quality assessments of the Operations Wing. The Training Wing at the National Headquarters is headed by Dato' Dr. Lee Hoo Teong, KStJ, Chief-of-Staff (Training).

The SJAM National Headquarters, based in Kuala Lumpur, oversees the activities of SJAM in the whole of Malaysia. The organisation is then divided into 14 States/Region, each having their own State/Regional Headquarters. With the exception of the Region of Wilayah Persekutuan (Federal Territory, consisting the cities of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya), all other states are divided into Areas (each with an Area Headquarters) to smoothen the coordination process amongst Divisions and the State Headquarters due to geographical factors. Grassroots volunteers are grouped into Divisions.

With the exception of a handful of paid staff, all other personnel in SJAM, including the principal officers at the National Headquarters, are volunteers.

Membership[edit]
Membership in SJAM is open to all individuals of good character, good physique and medically fit between 17 and 65 years of age. SJAM accepts suitable and interested individuals from all walks of life but passing the Basic First Aid examination is a pre-requisite before an individual is recognised as having attained the minimum competency to be a uniformed volunteer. First aid training and induction courses are provided to all prospective volunteers free of charge. SJAM is led by volunteers appointed to functional roles. While all new volunteers would usually be admitted at the basic rank of Ambulance Member (male) or Nursing Member (female), a higher rank may be subsequently assigned, as appropriate, based on respective functional appointments to describe a formal grade within the organisation conferring authority.

Skills[edit]
Volunteers are provided with progressive training and re-training opportunities and can complete a number of first aid qualifications. Training for basic to intermediate skill sets are usually provided at Divisional-level, whereas training for additional and enhanced skills such as ambulance driving and handling, management of mass-casualty incidents, as well as the use of an automated external defibrillator ("AED") are centrally conducted by suitable qualified trainers at the State/Regional Headquarters or Area Headquarters.

Healthcare Professionals[edit]
Whilst the majority of volunteers in SJAM are non-healthcare professionals, SJAM welcomes the involvement of healthcare professionals such as Medical Practitioners, Paramedics, Nurses and Medical Assistants to volunteer. Unlike the rest, healthcare professionals do not require to demonstrate their competency through attaining first aid certificates, but their qualifications and professional status are checked with the appropriate regulatory body before admission to SJAM. Healthcare professionals are required for tasks appropriate to their technical competencies during operational duties, as well as training for other volunteers in certain enhanced skills.

Developing Human Capital[edit]

Suitably experienced volunteers, upon demonstrating outstanding competency in Advanced First Aid, may be chosen to be developed as First Aid Trainers. Chosen candidates will undergo development, exposure and assessment in methodology of training before being accredited as First Aid Trainers. Volunteers with such accreditation are entrusted to facilitate training and re-training activities for other volunteers, as well as first aid courses for the public. Relevant training activities targeting on management, administration and leadership are also provided to volunteers appointed to functional roles. Many volunteers argued that their experience in SJAM, coupled with such exposures, have somewhat given an edge to their career.

Operations Wing[edit]
Consistent with its motto and objectives, SJAM offers a wide range of first aid and pre-hospital care services to the public through its Operations Wing, mostly provided free of charge.

Public Duty[edit]
SJAM volunteers attend thousands of events across the country every year, covering a variety of public events such as marathons and other sporting events, parades, public gatherings, and concerts, providing first aid to the sick and injured. Such service is provided free at the point of delivery, although a charge may be levied on the event organiser for attendance at commercial events. The provision of services during public duties are not limited to first aid; ambulances are provided in most events for rapid transportation. Where necessary, SJAM may also provide healthcare professionals to provide assistance at mobile treatment centres. SJAM has also successfully experimented the use of bicycles to maximise on efficiency and effectiveness during public duties involving a larger area of coverage. SJAM currently has two Cycle Response Units in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, staff by the volunteers of SJAM Wilayah Persekutuan and SJAM Penang respectively. Due to its commendable and consistent track record, SJAM has also been deployed to render aid to the [4][5][6] sick and wounded in many difficult situations; more recently, the Bersih Rallies in 2007, 2011 and 2012, as well as the HINDRAF Rally in 2007, all occurred in Kuala Lumpur. SJAM volunteers have acted professionally and neutrally, and provided relief without any distinction of race, class, colour or creed.

Transport Duty[edit]
SJAM is certified by the Malaysian Book of Records as the voluntary organisation with the largest fleet of ambulances in Malaysia. All ambulances are commissioned for active transport duties of the following nature:

Emergency Medical Assistance Service ("EMAS")[edit]

SJAM provides support to the Ministry of Health's statutory ambulance service in metropolitan areas, responding to 999 calls and assisting during times of major incidents. From its humble beginning in Kuala Lumpur and greater Klang Valley on 10 September 1998, EMAS has now been extended statewide in Selangor and Penang, and selected cities and towns in Kedah,Perak, Johor and Sabah. SJAM was the first in Malaysia to introduce the use of AED in 2001 - it began when all EMAS ambulances in Kuala Lumpur, operated by SJAM Wilayah Persekutuan, were fitted with an AED each.

Expressway Emergency Ambulance Service[edit]

Motor vehicle accidents rate is significantly higher during major festivities due to the balik kampung (home return) rush. Many incidents along the expressways and highways became fatal due to delays in prehospital care. Since 1996, SJAM began stationing ambulances and volunteers at strategic locations along expressways and major highways during major festivities as one of its efforts to ensure quicker response to such incidents.

Non-emergency Transport Service[edit]

The large fleet of ambulances is also used in the provision of non-emergency transport service, transferring patients with limited mobility and/or requiring care during the journey to every part of the country, as well as into neighbouring countries (Singapore and Thailand), where land crossing permits.

Emergency Medical Air Rescue Service ("EMARS")[edit]

Since 2010, SJAM has been partnering the Air Unit of the Royal Malaysian Police ("RMP") in providing EMARS. Based at Simpang Airport near downtown Kuala Lumpur, the RMP helicopters are capable of being converted into air ambulances where necessary, and during EMARS deployment, specially-trained SJAM volunteers are assigned to provide patient care on board.

Training Wing[edit]
The services of Training Wing is 2-prong. Besides providing support to the Operations Wing through the formulation of curriculum and provision of technical training/assessment, the Training Wing is also responsible in addressing the first aid learning and education needs of the public.

External Courses[edit]
SJAM runs first aid courses for external individuals and organisations in return for a modest fee. SJAM has assisted many commercial establishments in training their employees as first aiders based on the popular First Aid at Work syllabus.

Reach-out efforts such as Mass CPR are made from time to time to create greater awareness amongst members of the public

Diploma in Pre-Hospital Emergency Care[edit]

SJAM, in collaboration with the Open University Malaysia ("OUM") contemplates to develop a 3-year Diploma programme in pre-hospital emergency care using the blended pedagogy of face-to-face learning, online participation of learners to interact with tutors and their peers, self learning through a module and relevant materials in OUM's Tan Sri Abdullah Sanusi Digital Library and attachments at SJAM's EMAS in various parts in Malaysia as well as in hospitals. This programme, recognised by the Malaysian Quality Agency and the Ministry of Higher Education, is designed to address the acute and urgent need to develop a sophisticated pre-hospital care system in Malaysia to upgrade knowledge and skills of [7] emergency medical technicians. The first intake for this programme took place in mid-2010.

Capacity Building[edit]
Among the initiatives of the Training Wing in support of capacity building efforts in pre-hospital care systems in Malaysia are as follows:

SJAM Academy[edit]
SJAM also owns and manages an in-house Clinical Skill Lab, branded as SJAM Academy. Located in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur, the Clinical Skill Lab is fitted with state-of-the-art facilities to facilitate training in pre-hospital care, and is predominantly used for the SJAM-OUM Diploma in Pre-Hospital Emergency Care programme and advanced training for volunteers. The opening of SJAM Academy was officiated by [8] Professor Anthony Roger Mellows, Lord Prior of the Venerable Order of Saint John on 13 January 2012.

National Open Pre-Hospital Care Competition[edit]

SJAM also promotes continuous learning through healthy competitions of knowledge and skills between pre-hospital care providers in Malaysia. The binneial National Open Pre-Hospital Care Competition is a relatively new initiative championed by SJAM to bring together pre-hospital care providers, both paid [9][10] personnel and volunteers, from all over the country to compete in a scenario-based competition. The winners of Tuan RS Gurcharan Singh Challenge Trophy since the inaugural competition in 2009 are as follows: 2009: St John Ambulance of Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur Bukit Bintang Combined Adult Division, Wilayah Persekutuan) 2011: Hospital Pulau Pinang (Accident and Emergency Department)

Other Services to the Community[edit]

Besides the main areas of services, SJAM also provides various services to the community; some are specific to local needs. Among them: Haemodialysis Service: SJAM operates a total of 18 Haemodialysis Centres across the country, providing affordable services to patients with renal failure from the underprivileged group in various parts of Selangor, Malacca, Penang, Perak, Pahang and Sarawak. Geriatric Care: SJAM runs a Nursing Home for the Elderly in Taiping, Perak.

Lions Club

Lions Club, cabang freemason (Yahudi) Kumpulan yang kononnya menjalankan kegiatan kemasyarakatan. Sebenarnya, ia adalah salah satu daripada cabang Freemason yang bertujuan mempengaruhi dunia. Ia ditubuhkan pada musim panas tahun 1915 di Texas, Amerika oleh penaja yang pertama iaitu Melvin Jones. Pertubuhan ini dianggotai oleh tokoh perusahaan dan pentadbiran yang terkenal di Amerika. Kemudian, ia diisytiharkan sebagai pertubuhan antarabangsa pada tahun 1917 di bandar Chicago Amerika. Walaupun ia menjadi pertubuhan yang terbuka dan mendedahkan kegiatannya, namun rahsianya terbongkar apabila ia didalangi oleh gerakan Freemason. Cuba lihat laman ini sebagai bukti Lions Club ini merupakan agenda Zionis (laman web Lions Club International)

Lions Club Sibu

Kedua-dua kelab bergerak atas nama pertubuhan sosial. Di bumi Sabah ini, kelab ini semakin aktif khususnya di Kota Kinabalu. Kini mereka dalam gerakkerja untuk menawan Borneo. Lions Club kian aktif bergerak dan website ini bukti kepada gerakkerja mereka (senarai cabang Lions Club di Borneo). Ini membuktikan bahawa mereka telah melakukan gerakkerja secara halus. Mengenai Rotary Club pula, ia juga telah bertapak di bumi Borneo khususnya Kota Kinabalu sebagai sebuah NGO (badan bukan kerajaan) dan ini merupakan web site Kota Kinabalu Rotary Club. Agak menyedihkan apabila ada orang Islam yang terlibat menjadi ahli dan penggerak kepada kelab ini lantaran tidak mempunyai pengetahuan tentang latar belakang kedua-dua kelab ini. Wallahu'alam.

p/s: Satu lagi ancaman selain gerakan kristianisasi kepada umat Islam khususnya di bumi Borneo. Apa tindakan kita??

Pertubuhan bukan kerajaan

Daripada Wikipedia, ensiklopedia bebas.

Pertubuhan bukan kerajaan (bahasa Inggeris: non-government organisation atau NGO) merupakan pertubuhan yang ditubuhkan oleh pihak atau pertubuhan swasta yang tidak mempunyai apa-apa hubungan dengan mana-mana kerajaan. Ada NGO yang dibiaya oleh kerajaan tertentu, namun keahlian pertubuhan sebegini tidak terbuka kepada mana-mana pihak kerajaan. Tidak seperti istilah Pertubuhan antara kerajaan, "pertubuhan bukan kerajaan" merupakan suatu istilah bagi kegunaan umum tetapi ia bukan suatu definasi yang sah di sisi undang-undang. Di dalam bidang kuasa mahkamah jenis-jenis pertubuhan ini adalah "pertubuhan masyarakat awam" atau dirujukkan dengan namanama yang lain. Sesetengah pihak menganggarkan jumlah pertubuhan bukan kerajaan antarabangsa sebanyak 40,000.[1] Bilangan pertubuhan tempatan adalah lebih tinggi lagi: Russia mempunyai 277,000 NGO.[2] India dianggarkan mempunyai di antara 1 juta dan 2 juta NGO.[3]

WE, VOLUNTEERS OF SALAM, dedicated to achieving the goals of a civil society where every individual will have the opportunity to lead a life of dignity and fulfillment, hereby pledge: To uphold and practice the spirit of volunteerism To share knowledge and experience with sincerity and humility To respect the traditions and cultures of other communities To foster friendship and solidarity among all peoples Members Board of Trustees 1. Datuk Masidi Manjun 2. Dato' Saifuddin Abdullah 3. Datuk Ahmad A. Talib 4. Datuk Freezailah

THE FOUNDING OF YAYASAN SALAM Malaysia is based on a very simple philosophy: that people everywhere are entitled to live in an environment that is just and equitable, and pursue a life of dignity and fulfillment. The goal of civil society is to ensure that people are helped to lead better lives. Yayasan Salam regards volunteer work as a meaningful way to bring about change. Volunteer work helps to build strong communities by cultivating an ethic of sharing, helping and caring. Through

Yayasan Salam, Malaysians now have the opportunity to contribute towards the building of civil society when they serve as volunteers at home and overseas. SALAM volunteers work with people and communities in need, sharing with them their knowledge and skills, and building capabilities. We believe many Malaysians, especially youths, would like to contribute to this effort. Those who become SALAM volunteers will be placed to work with requesting organisations at home and abroad. The launching of Yayasan Salam is significant in one other respect. For many years Malaysia has been a recipient of aid and assistance from many developed countries. This has contributed in no small measure to our development and progress as a nation. Our success of recent times has given us the confidence and reinforced our commitment to reach out and share our knowledge and expertise with others, within the limits of our resources and capabilities. In this context, the formation of a national volunteer corps and the sending of volunteers across borders is an expression of a new dimension in our nationhood. The formation of Yayasan Salam underscores our belief that people must make a deliberate effort to reach out to other people to help build a better world. Our mission is to give expression to this objective through volunteer effort. Let us all join hands and together seek to make a meaningful difference

Through the e-initiative, ICT centers will be established in low-income communities in both urban and rural areas.
