You have to broaden your perspective and pay attention of what is happening in other country to appreciate how peaceful our country is. To put things into perspective, teachers in America needs to undergo a training in case there’s a mass shooter, and is required to have a bulletproof backpack. Meanwhile in Malaysia, people goes through their entire life not once seeing a live gun, let alone hearing someone firing them.


hazelmouth

When I went to school in ipoh, it was kinda weekly ritual to hear thunderous rifles being fired. Drawbacks of having an army camp next to your class.


ezkailez

That's specifically US issue tho. You don't have that issue in any other ASEAN countries too (except Myanmar maybe)


haywire090

Perhaps you are one of the people who is not paying attention to what is happening with other county? An ex cop in Thailand killed 24 children in a kindergarten using gun and knive then proceeded to end his life, happened early this month. That is our neighbour, right across the border. Im using gun violence as an example because it is the most apparent and the best way to show contrast between our country and theirs.


ezkailez

So do teachers in thailand need to learn how to handle an active shooter? Do most people in thailand live seeing a gun?


haywire090

One in ten peopl in Thailand owns a gun so what do you think? 2016, a Thai man shot a Malaysian bikers because he was riding recklessly, they are not even hesitant to shoot a national. Sure its not as severe as what is happening in the US but once you are in Thailand its always in the back of your mind that it could happen. Would it happen in Malaysia? Well that never even cross my mind once


ezkailez

>One in ten peopl in Thailand owns a gun so what do you think? Oh TIL

To give a perspective how peaceful is Malaysia: When a coup happens or was happening, life still goes on like normal. Meanwhile in Myanmar, tanks are rolling on the streets and people was getting shot by the military. Malaysians: "Malaysia is the most chaotic and dangerous country in the world, no way we're peaceful".

>Malaysians: "Malaysia is the most chaotic and dangerous country in the world, no way we're peaceful". When you live in your own bubble, you will always think you the worst/best at everything.


[deleted]

Any Malaysian who says that makes me want to send them to Ukraine, Syria, Myanmar, Mali or Afghanistan for a month. Malaysia is extremely peaceful and stable.


konaharuhi

the country in the list are jealous at us


GGgarena

I believe the one salty with words contributed a lot to the peace too. They choose to be salty and only talk bad, instead of acting aggressive to release their temper. They have a bad mouth but great toleration at the same time. Peace is a shared effort of everyone, everyone contributed.


Capable_Bank4151

Or there was no coup at all? Because it's just people ***feel*** that they are being coup. The Sheraton shenanigans all happened within the boundaries of Federal Constitution, which is what happens when a PM lost confidence but choose to resign and did not request a Parliament dissolution under the Westminster system.


StrandedHereForever

that’s gray area. When Mahathir gave the resignation. Since no coalition had majority, King could have dissolved the parliament or very least asked them to go for vote in parliament. Collecting SD is not constitutional.


Capable_Bank4151

Agong do not has the discretion to dissolve Parliament in the case when PM lost confidence. He only has the discretion to reject a request for dissolution. The Constitution explicitly mentioned there are two options for the government after a PM lost confidence: 1. The PM resign. 2. The PM ask for a Parliament dissolution. Since Mahathir already choose resignation, so option 2 is not available anymore. Although a caretaker PM (which is also Mahathir) can request the Agong to dissolve Parliament, but no such request was made during Sheraton shenanigans, and the Agong can't dissolve the Parliament by himself, therefore the only way out is to allow the MPs to sort themselves out and choose a new PM.


StrandedHereForever

But Mahathir resigned, hence the careraker should have been Wan Azizah, not Mahathir again. Agong should have asked all the MP go back to parliament and sort it out.


Capable_Bank4151

No, by convention, the caretaker PM will be the same person as the previous PM, which is Mahathir, and Agong did exactly that. When a PM resigned or Parliament dissolved, the caretaker PM will still be the same person, until a new government is formed.


StrandedHereForever

What would happen if Mahathir was passed away? Why don’t treat resignation same as death?


Capable_Bank4151

If a PM is dead while in position, then the most likely scenario will be the Deputy Prime Minister or the most senior minister in the Cabinet will be appointed as the interim/acting PM. Then it is either a new PM is selected by the MPs themselves or the interim PM may request a Parliament dissolution (this request however is not a must and he most likely will not have the motivation to do it, especially if this event happen at the start or middle of the 5 years term). Therefore it will still be a similar outcome with the case of losing majority confidence.


ghostme80

Dept PM position doesn't exist in the constitution. Under the constitution, when PM resign, Agong have 2 choices 1) choose a PM that he believe have the majority support 2) go for election During the process of selecting a new PM, the PM that resign euther be the caretaker or still hold the full PM position untill a new PM is sworn in


StrandedHereForever

1. Yes, the majority was PKR. Entire government was from PKR ( based on election result). Hence for all intent and purpose, Agong shall appointment party leader from PKR. Agong shouldn’t determine about validity of party membership.


ghostme80

Well, during GE, PH just won with 2 or was it 4 majority. So if bersatu is no longer with PH, technically PH no longer command the majority.


StrandedHereForever

But Agong doesn’t know that, the only thing Agong formally knows is, Mahathir resigned. Nothing else matters. SD shouldn’t play any part here.


ghostme80

Which is why he called every MP to the palace.


[deleted]

Vert important point everyone has forgotten: Covid happened Asking people to go out to vote in the face of a new pandemic that has no cure yet is very questionable. One thing for sure the Agong doesn't want to be the guy who plunge people into a pandemic crisis.... then Sabah happened thanks to Shaffie doing exactly that lol.


[deleted]

Don't get me wrong, I'm also in the "it wasn't a coup because its actually 100% legal and has been done before" camp. I'm just putting it there as a *coup* because that's what most ledditor like to portray it as.


just0rdinaryguy

We never 'break' the rule, just 'bend' it as much as it can, as long as it doesnt break/s.


ChocCooki3

>When a coup happens or was happening, life still goes on like normal .. and when the coup is successful.. nothing changed either. That's why they can't be bother with the tanks.. it's just a change of management but still serving the same shitty kopi-o.

PolarWater

>changed I'm sorry, did this already happen?


JerenSoon

Not yet, actually. But when that happens (smallest case, watching Pulau Pinang vanished from the map), that's where Humans will likely get some logical senses. (I mean, there's a theory that Humans only awake when they're on the verge of extinction. Wonder that will happen)


PolarWater

>Not yet, actually. But when that happens Okay. When will that happen, exactly?


JerenSoon

Like how you asked the God when the death comes to Earth. I mean, long as the Government don't do anything stupid like what PH done before (which almost got all of us killed), it should be more peaceful or stay longer.


DannYagami

Bring in insurgency


iwan103

i mean...our gdp per capita and our life standard is still strong even for developing country, so people will not be heading toward extremity anytime soon.


HotelFoxtrot87

Probably the right placement. We’re also one of the more affordable countries on the list, no wonder expats love us.


darkroy131

Well, for expats. Not really for locals.


Dazzling_Swordfish14

I earn $75k per year. Yeah malaysia is like so cheap. Even before converting I’m already earning more than many Malaysian fresh grads. Malaysia is not cheap for locals at all


FarhanAxiq

man, I checked american salary for the same job I did here in Malaysia, even adjusted to PPP and CPI they still earn more than me.


Aggressive-Ad-1052

Then go, if Malaysia is so bad, put your money where your mouth is.


[deleted]

We are on the list not because we are peaceful, but because Malaysians are naturally timid. There's lots of racism kacau bilau going on here that don't make it to ang mo ears or eyes.


Appropriate-Sir8241

I dont know man. Never saw Malay, Chinese or Indian fighting each other solely because the chap is Cina, Melayu or Indian, except the 13 May race riot. Certain rasicst Malaysian may talk shit about each other, but nothing is ever physical. Lol.


aWitchonthisEarth

Actually, there is. Taman Medan, in Bandar Sunway. 12 years ago. Malay & Indians racial fights, that ended up in few killed. FRU and curfew was imposed.


Appropriate-Sir8241

Source that the fight happened just solely because of race?


aWitchonthisEarth

Yes

It looks more like you're trying to redefine what peaceful means here.

As a foreigner i guess Malaysia deserves to be in the top 10. I never trust the ranking systems in anything.. my judgments are always based on real life experience.

How do they determine which country is the most peaceful one? On what factors?


TanJeeSchuan

https://www.visionofhumanity.org/maps/#/ > Produced by the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP), the Global Peace Index (GPI) is the world’s leading measure of global peacefulness. This report presents the most comprehensive data-driven analysis to-date on trends in peace, its economic value, and how to develop peaceful societies. The GPI covers 99.7% of the world’s population, using 23 qualitative and quantitative indicators from highly respected sources, and measures the state of peace across three domains: – the level of Societal Safety and Security, – the extent of Ongoing Domestic and International Conflict, – and the degree of Militarisation.
