UKM tempat 31 universiti terbaik dunia

KUALA LUMPUR 30 Mei - Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) menduduki tangga ke-31 carta universiti terbaik dunia mengikut Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) QS-World University Ranking 2012/2013.

Naib Canselor UKM, Prof. Tan Sri Dr. Sharifah Hapsah Syed Hasan Shahabudin berkata, pengiktirafan QS iaitu syarikat penarafan berpangkalan di London itu adalah bagi kategori universiti berusia bawah 50 tahun.

"Pengiktirafan itu menjadikan UKM satu-satunya universiti tempatan yang tersenarai dalam kelompok universiti terbaik daripada beribu-ribu universiti di dunia.

"Sebagai universiti yang masih muda, UKM membuktikan kecemerlangan dalam saingan dengan universiti dari Amerika Syarikat, United Kingdom, Australia dan banyak lagi," katanya kepada pemberita selepas perasmian Sambutan 40 Tahun Fakulti Perubatan UKM, di sini hari ini.

Majlis dirasmikan oleh Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir selaku Canselor UKM. Turut mengiringi baginda ialah Tunku Ampuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Aishah Rohani Tengku Besar Mahmud.

Sharifah Hapsah berkata, penilaian QS itu dibuat berdasarkan pencapaian dan kriteria seperti penyelidikan, penerbitan, populasi tenaga pengajar dan pelajar.

"UKM sudah mencapai pelbagai kemajuan termasuk menjadi universiti yang melahirkan pakar perubatan paling ramai di negara ini," katanya.

Sehubungan itu, beliau berharap kerajaan akan terus membantu usaha meningkatkan kewibawaan UKM sebagai universiti disegani.

"Hasrat kita selepas ini adalah untuk berada di dalam senarai 10 universiti terbaik," katanya.

Sejak penubuhannya, Fakulti Perubatan UKM telah melahirkan 5,144 doktor perubatan, 2,814 doktor pakar dalam pelbagai bidang serta 94 doktor falsafah.

Zahrain Mohamed Hashim-Stupid MP from Malaysia

The New Straits Times, one of the mainstream newspaper in Malaysia, controls by the ruling party, Umno, reported in 2009 that Xenophon, an Australian senator being anti-Islam and supportive of the "lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender" (LGBT) movements. Zahrain, an ex-opposition Member of Parliament (MP) for Bayan Baru constituency who betrayed the Opposition pack as well as the voters, was "quick" to comment. He made the following comments without verifying for the facts.

Zahrain said "Xenophon not only was very outspoken against Islam, but also defended the LGBT issue.

“Should we let someone like Xenophon influence our culture and moral values through politics? By confiding in Xenophon, is Anwar also supporting the LGBT movement?” he asked.

“I also challenge Pas’ ulama to question Anwar on why he sought Xenophon as a confidant, as clearly Xenophon stands against Islamic values.”

Now the truth prevails and the New Straits Times has to apologies for fabricating the story by intentionally replaced the word "Scientology" with "Islam" in Xenophon's statement. This is slanderous. The New Straits Times has committed a crime and Zahrain is the accomplice.

Please vote this ass hole Zahrain out in the 13th General Election. Plain stupid MP.
