PADANG SERAI: A Form Two student of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Lunas here, Nur Ainina Adila Muhd Zuki, has been reported missing after going to school last week.

Her father, Muhd Zaki Jahaya, 46, who is Kampung Perenggan Federal Village Development and Security chairman, said Nur Ainina Adila was sent to school, which was about three kilometres away, at about 11.30am on Oct 24 on a motorcycle by a neighbour, Rosnah Ahmad, 46, who was paid to do so.

He said Nur Ainina Adila was found missing when Rosnah went to pick her up after school about 5.30pm the same day.


"Rosnah waited for 30 minutes and then contacted my wife, Hajar Othman, 44, when my daughter still did not appear," he told reporters at his house at Kampung Perenggan, Lunas here today.

Muhd Zuki said he lodged a missing person's report on her daughter, the youngest of four siblings, about 9.45pm the same day after failing to find her.

He urged those with information on her daughter to contact him at 019-5253307 or his wife (019-5033091) or the nearest police station. -- BERNAMA

Dr M: Continue with Look East policy

Posted: 29 Oct 2011 09:53 PM PDT

LANGKAWI: Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said Malaysia and other Islamic countries should look to other Eastern countries and not the West as a model for their development.

He said he believed he made the right decision in introducing the "Look East" Policy of emulating work ethics and business techniques from Japan and South Korea during his tenure as the prime minister.

"Right now, there are so many problems with Western countries. The problem in the West is that they have borrowed too much and cannot repay. You cannot have that kind of a country as a model.


"If you see countries like (South) Korea, Japan and China in the East ... China has US$3.2 trillion in reserves. They are swimming in money. Korea can come up with major products better than that produced by companies in the West.

"Japan, as you know, is a country which lost a war ... totally destroyed but as it rebuilt itself, it become the second biggest economy in the world. If you want to copy or learn something, learn from the successful people, not from the failures," he said during a question-and-answer session at the Third Langkawi Islamic Finance & Economics International Conference (LIFE 3), here.

The three-day conference, with the theme "Islamic Banking and Finance: Waqaf, Zakat and Sadakah as Community Empowerment and Strategies for the Economic Transformation of the Ummah", began yesterday.


Dr Mahathir said one could not learn much from the West because it was a total failure.

"So, we should continue to look to the East and not to the West. The West is going bankrupt," he said.

He also said that he was personally against socialism because it would make everyone poor.


"For capitalism, it is the way to prosper the country. If we look around, capitalist countries seem to be so rich, that even workers can drive big cars. But people can become extremely greedy ... wanting more and more money without thinking about the consequences.

"They borrow and borrow until they cannot pay and they are all bankrupt. Greed will cause this. Today, we are seeing failed countries in the developed world. It is because countries like Greece are so indebted ... borrowing more than 200 per cent of their GDP (Gross Domestic Product)," Dr Mahathir added. -- BERNAMA
