KAEDAH PELAKSANAAN SISTEM DIAT DALAM KES-KES KEMALANGAN JALANRAYA DI MALAYSIA; SATU TINJAUAN AWAL: Method Execution of Diat System in Road Accident Cases in Malaysia; An Initial Review
Get PDFSalah satu perkara yang menjadi topik besar di Malaysia sekarang ini ialah kadar kemalangan jalan raya yang sangat tinggi. Secara ringkasnya terdapat 2 isu utama dalam tajuk ini, iaitu isu kemalangan dan isu pampasan. Melihat kepada isu kemalangan, satu kajian oleh ESCAP (Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific) iaitu satu badan di bawah kelolaan Pertubuhan Bangsa-bangsa Bersatu mengenai pembangunan alam sekitar di Asia Pasifik menunjukkan Malaysia mencatatkan jumlah kemalangan maut tertinggi di dunia dan tempat ketiga bagi kemalangan jalan raya secara umumnya. Satu kajian lain juga menunjukkan lebih 85 peratus punca kemalangan adalah disebabkan oleh sikap pemandu atau pengguna jalan raya itu sendiri. Berhubung isu pampasan, menurut statistik Ops Sikap 24, 62% daripada mereka yang terlibat dengan kemalangan maut adalah penunggang dan pembonceng motosikal. Rata-rata mangsa adalah masyarakat berpendapatan sederhana dan tidak memiliki insurans. Apabila berlaku kemalangan, mangsa akan menanggung kerugian kerana tiada pampasan untuk mangsa. Sekalipun mereka boleh menuntut pampasan melalui undang-undang Tort, namun ia terpaksa melalui proses yang berasingan dan memerlukan kos tambahan. Akibatnya mangsa kekal dalam keadaan menderita dan haknya terabai. Walaupun berbagai usaha telah dilakukan melalui pelbagai agensi kerajaan dan swasta seperti Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ), Polis, Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia (LLM) dan lain-lain untuk membudayakan pemanduan berhemah, Namun masih belum menampakkan hasil yang memuaskan. Manakala dari aspek pampasan, boleh dikatakan belum ada satu kajian yang konkrit telah dilakukan. Justeru, kajian ini akan meninjau kelebihan sistem diat dalam menangani kedua-dua isu di atas sekali gus merumuskan kaedah pelaksanaan sistem diat di Malaysia. Metodologi kajian berasaskan kaedah mix metode iaitu temubual pakar dan kajian tinjauan (survei). Sampel kajian terdiri daripada tenaga akademik, para mufti dan ulama, peguam, ahli undang-undang dan orang awam. Teknik persampelan menggunakan kaedah purposive sampling dan simple random sampling procedure. Data dianalisis secara deskriftif dan analisis SPSS. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan kesemua responden bersetuju sistem diat perlu diperkenalkan di negara ini dengan mewujudkan undang-undang bertulis yang lengkap serta melibatan semua agensi yang berkaitan bagi memudahkan proses pelaksanaannya.

MEDICAL TAKAFUL (INSURANCE) REFORM: MODELS AND STRUCTURES
Get PDFLiving with healthy life is among the prime natural concern of everyone regardless of one\u27s status or background. A proper health–care requires money and today, it is one of the most expensive components of expenditure, which is not affordable to everyone thus, medical takaful (insurance) may be a solution. In view of creating a healthy society, several developing countries make the medical insurance compulsory. In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on the other hand, the health insurance has not been made mandatory yet on everyone living in the Kingdom, the native or the expatriate. The law of the Kingdom in general, is a Shari’ah (Islamic law) while its recognized insurance model is based on the cooperative (ta’awuni) principles (Al-Qur’an (5:2). In creating a healthier society by encouraging everyone to care about health, the medical takaful may be an effective step to be taken in to consideration thus, its reform is an emergence factor by allowing choices in package within the supreme law of the Kingdom. An attempt is thus made in this paper to analyze possible reformed models and structures of medical insurance appropriate for the Kingdom\u27s environment. In establishing the idea, some experiences will be analyzed as a reference from the existing practices of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and also the Malaysian practices of medical takaful as the pioneer of the scheme
REFUGEE CHILDREN IN MALAYSIA: THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
Get PDFThere were not many changes to the situation of refugees and its protection in Malaysia ever since their first arrival in the 1970s. The legal framework for the protection of refugees and refugee children is incomplete, inadequate and has no special regards to children’s rights. Despite ratifying the United Nations Convention On The Rights Of A Child (UNCRC), refugee children in Malaysia continue to struggle to enjoy their basic rights. This paper seeks to highlight the presence of diverse group of refugee in Malaysia in the past until today. It is argued in this paper that as a host country of refuge, Malaysia has contributed significantly to the protection of refugees in the Southeast Asian region despite glaring shortcomings. Next, analysis on the treatment of refugee children will be presented with special focus into the different treatment to different groups of refugee children. These various treatments will show whether the guiding principles of UNCRC are being respected and complied with. This paper also seeks to suggest that a proper incorporation of the UNCRC in domestic law will lead the authority to treat refugee children as children first regardless of the immigrant label attached to the group.

PAVING THE WAY FOR THE NON-REFOULEMENT PRINCIPLE IN DOMESTIC COURTS

THE LEGAL RATIONALES OF ENACTING MALAYSIAN SPACE LEGISLATION
Get PDFThe involvement of Malaysia in outer space activities is irrefutable. It had started long ago from 1960 with the construction of her first earth satellite station in Kuantan, Pahang. Apart from building the earth satellite stations, Malaysia also has involved in various space applications and activities. These include telecommunication and broadcasting, remote sensing, meteorology, navigation, satellite manufacturing and launching, astronaut programme, suborbital space plane, commercial space ports and so forth. Such activities in fact need proper regulations. Even though some of these activities are at initial stages of involvement, however, there is a great opportunity for further engagement. Since Malaysia has no specific law deals with outer space activities, thus this paper discusses the legal rationales why it is necessary to enact the Malaysian outer space legislation. It hopes it will justify the importance of outer space legislation in the context of Malaysia as an actor and a contributor to outer space activities

ABSTRAK
Pertukaran matawang asing dalam sistem Islam klasik terbentuk melalui dua mekanisma iaitu al-Sarf atau money changer dan suftajah iaitu seperti kiriman wang melalui sistem telegrafic transfer, satu mekanisma yang diamalkan oleh bank-bank konvensional dalam urusan pengiriman wang dari sebuah negara ke sebuah negara lain. Konsep dan teori al-Sarf dan suftajah dalam fiqh mu’amalat klasik ini penting demi memastikan aktiviti pertukaran wang yang dijalankan adalah sah dari sudut syara. Dalam konteks pertukaran matawang asing dari perspektif Islam, dinar emas (Romawi) dan dirham perak (Parsi) telah dijadikan tanda aras pertukaran pada masa itu. Pertukaran dan perdagangan matawang dalam Islam adalah mengikut syarat kontrak jual-beli iaitu, adanya penjual, ada pembeli dan wujud matawang yang didagangkan. Penentuan nilai yang dipersetujui dan dilakukan pertukarannya hendaklah dengan serta merta iaitu (on the spot). Pertukaran dan perdagangan matawang dalam sesebuah negara dengan matawang di sesebuah negara lain semasa zaman Rasululullah SAW hukumnya adalah harus selagi mana amalan riba al-fadl dan riba al-nasiah dapat dihindarkan. Rasulullah SAW membenarkan pertukaran matawang emas dengan matawang perak atau matawang perak dengan matawang emas selagi tukarannya adalah mengikut nilai pada hari itu. Artikel ini menggunakan kajian perpustakaan iaitu merujuk kepada bahan-bahan bacaan iaitu sama ada buku atayu artikel yang berkaitan dan seterusnya mengemukakan hasil analisa daripada kajian tersebut. Kesimpulan dikemukakan pada bahagian akhir artikel ini
