Sec-gen: UN-recognised refugees to get ID cards

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia plans to issue identification cards to refugees who are recognised by the United Nations, allowing them to stay in the country temporarily and avoid arrest as illegal immigrants.
Home Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Mahmood Adam said the Government would work with the UN refugee agency to issue the cards so that immigration enforcement personnel would recognise and spare UN-designated refugees.
“As long as they are recognised as refugees by the UN, they can stay here temporarily,” he said yesterday.
“They cannot work here, but they can do odd jobs.”
He could not give an exact time-line but said the initiative was in the “final stage.”

According to the UN agency, about 75,600 refugees and asylum-seekers were in Malaysia as of November last year. Most fled persecution in Myanmar.

Yante Ismail, a spokeswoman for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, welcomed the development.
“Proper documentation for refugees is essential to their protection,” she said.

All of the refugees in Malaysia are waiting to be resettled to a third country that officially accepts refugees. — AP

Dedicated to The Heroes Of Change Your World Kuching Jan 30th 2010

February 4th, 2010 » No Comments » CYW BLOGS

We were amazed how we had a FULL HOUSE in Change Your World Kuching with over 890 passes sold even though they had only 1 1/2 months to CYW Kuching main event. Technically speaking they had only less than 30 days as they only started doing CYW Quest (Pre-event) 20+ days before CYW Tour (Main event).

We had decided Dec 2009 to cancel CYW Kuching as our champion for Kuching pulled out in Nov 2009 due to some unforeseen circumstances.

Our first Hero we would like to make mention is Kong Nai Lin our City Coordinator. She works in … (Click here for more)

A message from the director of Change Your World.

We are here in Kuching and it’s one more day to the Change Your World Kuching Main Event.

The call for change is definitely in the atmosphere in Kuching. This will be our largest crowd so far as 750 young people have bought the passes. At least 200 passes have been sold in the past 2 days since we were here and we are expecting even more to come.

It’s so inspiring to hear that the Change Your World Quest (our pre-event) which was actively presented for the past 1 month prior to the main event was a great tool in challenging the young generation to want change.

Students boldly ask their principals, teachers and lecturers to give them opportunities to present to their friends in schools and colleges. In fact many of them spoke in front of a crowd for the first time, some to a crowd of 10, 20,50 and some to more than 100 students. You are the HEROES of Change Your World.

And to those who have not done it, don’t worry you have your chance to be a HERO. You can take the challenge by joining The Change Your World Venture (our post event) which will happen after the Main event. Join us as YOU can serve and change your CITY by being the EYE for Justice and Mercy to those who are in need.

Who says the millennial generation do not care about change?

We pray that this will be a beginning of many reports and great stories that will inspire and see Kuching Change.

As a Christian, Jesus taught me to learn to show love to my neighbors by being the voice, eyes and hands to those who are in need and also to those who don’t deserve it. I hope that we can learn from His example and do like wise.

Together We Can Make The Difference

A “change” poem from our Kuching friends

January 14th, 2010 » No Comments » CYW BLOGS

This world is crawling with hurt and pain,
Where everyone’s tears would pour like rain,
And little children are lost without aim,
Wanting love that they could not claim.

Imagine if their lives were yours,
And it had been taken away by force,
Would you open your heart like doors?
And make your life worth living for?

So wake up now and look everywhere,
Grab every chance if you care,
You can even donate your teddy bear!
So let us change the world, okay?
