Malaysia<br />

Road Map for Achieving Vision 2020<br />

Koon Yew Yin<br />

“Mr. Koon writes with perceptiveness<br />

and candour as well as with the voice<br />

of experience – qualities that are often<br />

missing in the writings of many political<br />

analysts that are provided with space in<br />

the mainstream media. This process of<br />

empowerment and simultaneous rejection<br />

of leaders who regard power and authority<br />

not as positions of trust and responsibility<br />

but to serve personal interest or as an<br />

opportunity for personal enrichment will be necessary if<br />

Malaysia is to prosper and move ahead to join the modern<br />

and progressive nations of the world.” - Tan Sri Tengku<br />

Razaleigh Hamzah, Member of Parliament and former<br />

Minister of Finance<br />

“Mr Koon has chosen to galvanise his years of<br />

experience in business and to reduce them into well written<br />

and well researched articles that will benefit all Malaysians.<br />

The articles are forthright and brutally honest in many<br />

instances and speak to the problems Malaysia faces and<br />

Malaysians must face up to.” - Dato’ Ambiga Sreenevasan,<br />

Former President of the Malaysian Bar Council and<br />

Chairperson of Bersih 2.0 & Bersih 3.0<br />

An Uncommon Hero<br />

M.K. Rajakumar in Politics and Medicine<br />

Tan Pek Leng<br />

Many witness momentous events in their<br />

lives, but few participate, much less leave<br />

their mark. Dr M.K. Rajakumar, on the<br />

contrary, left an indelible mark at every<br />

phase of his eventful life.<br />

For championing his beliefs, Rajakumar<br />

was incarcerated without trial under the<br />

Internal Security Act (ISA) like so many of<br />

his compatriots before and after him.<br />

Through historical investigations, personal recollections<br />

and tributes from colleagues, friends and family – including<br />

Tan Kai Hee, Syed Husin Ali, Poh Soo Kai, Said Zahari, Lim<br />

Hock Siew, Jomo K.S., Wang Gungwu, Ronald McCoy,<br />

Jeyakumar Devaraj, Lee Ban Chen, Abu Bakar Suleiman,<br />

Zuraina Majid, Sunita Rajakumar, Sukumari Sekhar, Ong Kik<br />

Hong and Shantha Nayar – this book constructs the portrait<br />

of a remarkable man who inspired many by the power of his<br />

intellect and the force of his conviction.<br />
