“LEGITIMACY OF CHILDREN BY WAY OF CLONE ACCORDING TO ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVES”

INTRODUCTION

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. As generally, child is the result of fertilization egg or seed between the husband and wife. But, if that result from the fertilization between the unmarried couple, the status of child become as illegitimate child. If the fertilization happens by way of mistake, thus it presumed as a legal status child. In truth, whether the child is legitimate or illegitimate still given the attention and converting by Islamic Syariah. A child is heredity of human generation on this world. Hence, one thing agreed by Al-Quran is the property and child as decoration at world. Hence, Islam obliges to the father and mother guard that trust with full ability.

Islam defends the system of family with prohibiting the act of adultery and taking the raise of child. Islam also prohibits the way of seeds renting which was fertilized when that fertilization is not from the husband’s sperm. In the issue of children by way of clone, it seen as a current issue and cause so many of questions which binding the aspects of religion, act and also on the side of law. This question comes out from the big problem relating to that issue. What is the legitimacy according to Islamic perspectives? Whether it legal or illegal, able or prohibit from doing, or only allowed in certain situation?

Thus, this article was written to examine and research the position of children by way of clone from the legal and religious perspectives. May Allah will gives His help or guidance to the true way and gives the good at all. In truth, all thing which best come out from Allah and all deficiency come out from me whose examine and research about this issue. Wallahualam.

WHAT IS CLONE?


The word ‘clone’ was originally from the Greek word ‘klwn’ which means ‘twig’. This is no surprise because in its primitive form cloning refers to the common vegetative reproduction in plants and is an indication that it is an asexual reproductive method, that unknown to mammals which reproduced sexually.

Cloning is the production of a genetically identical cells or organisms, all descended from a single individual. The members of a clone have precisely the same characteristics except where mutation and environmentally caused development variation have occurred. Cloning is widely used in horticulture to produce plants with desirable traits and also occurs in nature in organisms that produce asexually. The cloning technique can also be used to create identical twins, doubling the number of offspring that any particular female can produce at one time.
Asexual reproduction does not involve any sexual acts, thus the offspring would be an exact genetic replica of a single original parent. Nevertheless, clones are still possible in mammals and are most obvious in twins which either can be a result from natural or even deliberate splitting of a single embryo. Until Dolly, no more mammals had even been cloned through asexual reproductive methods and this is what has made Dolly so unique.

LEGITIMACY OF CLONE ON ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE

- Reason of Refuse by Islam against Clone

A. Creation by Allah


Creating, animate and death only on the right of Allah. Human cannot mix together in the matter of His God. Allah said, “And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and earth). Thereafter We made him (the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in a safe lodging (womb of the woman). Then We made the Nutfah into a clot (a piece if thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, the We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brought it forth as another creation. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators.”

B. Destroy the Nature
This is consistent with the decree by Allah, “Evil (sins and disobedience to Allah) has appeared on land and sea because of what the hands of men have earned (by oppression and evil deeds) that He (Allah) may make them taste a part of that which they have done, in order that they may return (by repenting to Allah, and begging His Pardon).” The risk from existing of clone is very higher into the nature of human themselves. Illustration, in a country exist two President whose same aspect of face, surely it can cause confuses to people.

C. Teach People to Disobedient to Allah and Sunnah
This is because, Allah creating anything the characteristics of human like as beautiful, stupid, clever, ugly, and others, that’s all have their knowledge. Allah knows if all people born with clever and smart, that people will quarrel. All people have their own ability and their stage of though. People work following their ability because the common life is intended to something.

D. Destroy the Families System
This is because children which born by way of clone doesn’t have the mother and father. This issue will cause the problem of inheritance of property and who should being the guardianship and also how their lineage. So, surely make difficult to the life himself and will destroy the system of families in social relationship.

E. Contrary with the Fikah Methods
By the cause of clone bring to the destroying of the families system and social, thus it is an activity which forbidden act. Every activity which bring to the forbidden, the penalty is forbidden. The born of child by the way of clone will cause the defamation in society, will exist two or three same person result from the clone. So, it gives the bad effect to society in their business daily.

- Views by the Ulama (The Body of Muslims Scholar)


A. The Religious Expert from Egypt
The Mufti of Egypt, Dr. Nasr Farid Wasil said in Nadwah Ilmiah held at Kaherah on 16th Mac 1997, the agreement on the aspect of academic and medical, cloning of human is unsuitable and refuse in Islam. Dr. Nasr also explain, the Islamic Syariah very importantly the guardianship of five aspects which refer with human life, that is mind, self, property, religion and heritage. Nobody can life in this world if one of that aspects broken down. The damage to one of those aspects will cause damage and pollution to the human life themselves. Cloning of human spoil the personification, heritage, mental and lastly to the religion. The religion will not known without exist the mind together. Allah want the human generation exist, life and continuing through the process of birth that is marriage which legal on the side of Syara’.

The technique of human cloning by any couple to getting the children is illegal and refuses by Syara’ with clear. Unadvisable the aspect relationship of husband and wife begin to be an ingredient of experiment which contain of devil because it bring to the futile creation by Allah.

B. Ulama from Quwait

There have 5 factors why the cloning of human not allowed in Islam by Dr. An-Nasyami during the Nadwah Ilmiah located at University of Quwait. First, changing the creation by Allah and contrary with the common life of human which healthy on the beginning. As decree by Allah, “(And remain always) turning in repentance to Him (only), and be afraid and dutiful to Him; and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat) and be not of Al-Musyrikin (the polytheists, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah).” Allah creating the human with differences common aspects of face and characteristics.

Besides that, it’s contrary with the status of human which was guarded by Allah and better than others creature. Furthermore, it destroy the families system which starting from the life of husband and wife full with the loving feelings. In the same time, it will be collapse the moral value of motherhood and fatherhood.
It causes the mix of heritage, because that process not respect to the aspect of family and heritage hence doesn’t take care about these aspects. Lastly, it cause of the deceived by the group of wrongdoer. Thus, they involve into the devil trap till devastate his life and others. As a conclusion, Dr. An-Nasyami said not need a Muslim and also to the non-Muslim do the process of cloning to the human based on the explanations which were stated before for guard the dignity, valuable and future guarantee.

C. View by Dr. Yusuf Al-Qardawi
Dr. Yusuf Al-Qardawi refuses the cloning of human based on the three reasons. First, Allah creating human in the different state between them following the basic of various types and different colour. It was stated, “See you not that Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, and We produce therewith fruits of various colours, and among the mountains are streaks white and red, of varying colours and (others) very black. And likewise of men and Ad-Dawabb [moving (living) creatures, beasts], and cattle, are of various colours. It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allah. Verily, Allah is All-Mighty, Oft-Forgiving.” Cloning expose people to the dangerous. When someone befalls of disaster or virus, all people will befall together. Only a type of dangerous was enough to destroying a generation of humanism. Some people irresponsible will be taking opportunity thus, create a human clone from the bad heredity.

Second, Allah creating everything with their couple or partner. As stated, “And We has created you in pairs (male and female, tall and short, good and bad).” Modern scientific shows, every plants and creature have their partner although not only human and animal have male and female but electric, atom and electron have the negative and positive charge. This is agreed and stated as decree by Allah, “And of everything We have created pairs, that you may remember (the Grace of Allah).”

Allah also gives the warning, “Go you in unto the males of the ‘Alamin (mankind). And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your wives? Nay, you are a trespassing people!” The effort of human clone is an effort to destroy the law of couple creation by Allah unto the nature. Hence, it is counted as destroy the life of human themselves and truly contrary with the common creation by Allah.

Third, Allah creating family as basic to the life society. A baby must enlarge in the family which full with loving and caring. The question is who will bring up that baby in the duration of baby life if it doesn’t have a mother and father? Appropriately, whose mother must shoulder the burden of pregnant, not like give the ovum for located at the manufacture womb. The mother’s womb which always with the baby in the duration of 9 months and 10 days.

D. Conclusion to All Views
In the Islamic Syariah, there exists the method of Fiqah which mentioned ‘closing the door of defamation’. This method clear if have the thing can be do, but allow the society do it, thus will open the door of defamation which more dangerous and bring to the destroying of human, so firstly to closing this thing from beginning. Allah said, “And insults not those whom they (disbelievers) worship besides Allah, lest they insult Allah wrongfully without knowledge. Thus We have made fair-seeming to each people its own doings; then to their Lords is their return and He shall then inform them of all that they used to do.”

The Islamic position is much clearly in that an announcement was made by the Academic of Islamic Fiqh in Jeddah which represented fifty Muslim jurists worldwide which had unanimously agreed that human cloning of whatever nature is to be prohibited in Islam. However, there also exist major restrictions to this ambitious prohibition. The Academy has no authority to impose or enforce its ruling on any Muslim countries. However, respect for this ruling will most certainly be adhered to by most Muslim countries due to the fact that of the existence of a shared concept of morality. Nevertheless, national legislations still need to be enacted to prove better criminal sanctions. This could be done based on the ijtihad of the local jurists on matters pertaining to advancement in biotechnology.

Through all this Malaysia remains comfortable with her Human Tissue Act of 1974. Clearly, with rapid advancements in biotechnology and bio medicine, it would be prudent for us to enact a more comprehensive and efficient legislation governing reproductive technologies. In respect for Article 3 of the Federal Constitution which mentions that Islam is the official religion of the Federation, legislation regulating this area should adopt the Islamic moral and ethical standard this is more closely and better acceptable to all Malaysian.

CONCLUSION

After conscientious all the discussion before, there have some conclusions can be made. We are not sure what will be the biological implications of cloning. We do not know whether the human thus created will have a balanced personality or that, he or she will become a monster. It is true that a person created this way will have identical physical features of his or her single parent, but this does not necessarily mean that that person will be mentally and morally like his or her parent. Even identical twins have different personalities.

We also do not know whether these highly manipulated single cells will be able to produce healthy and psychologically stable persons. Another question is about the use of the clones. What function would they play? Where are we going to keep these clones to live and grow as adults? How can we allow a human being’s body to be used by another human being as spare parts? This will be worse than slavery. This technology, if developed, would certainly affect the families system and would have many legal and ethical problems.

Some Muslim scholars who have discussed this subject recently have pointed out that ‘changing the creation of Allah’ is not allowed unless there is a real need or human welfare that depends on it. Thus they say that the Prophet even forbade from making changes unnecessarily in the body, face, eyebrows, and others. If making changes in such small and somewhat superficial things is forbidden then certainly the major changes in human genetics would be even more forbidden. Only Allah knows the best. Wallahualam.

Kapitalsme Ekonomi: Pendekatan Dunia kini adakah satu kesilapan?

Assalammualaikum, Salam 1 Malaysia dan Salam Perpaduan.

Umum sedia maklum bahawa dunia hari ini berdepan dengan masalah krisis ekonomi yang begitu hebat. “Economy recession” atau kegawatan ekonomi dunia kali ini menyaksikan pelopor-pelopor perbankan dunia rebah akibat senario ekonomi yang melanda. Izinkan saya untuk membawa kita sejenak ke arena ekonomi agar kita menyelami isu ini untuk kita bersama-sama mengharungi tahun 2010 sebagai tahun yang mencabar.

Berdasarkan sejarah, kapitalisme tidak muncul sehingga sistem undang–undang dan amalan ekonomi yang baru melindungi hak kepemilikan dan menjadikan ekonomi berasaskan pemilikan dapat dilaksanakan. Jual beli tidak dapat berlaku dengan berkesan sehinggalah moraliti perniagaan menjadikan kontrak itu mapan dan tidak mahal—sebagai contoh tidak perlu sentiasa menyaman pihak-pihak yang melanggar kontrak. Pelaburan dalam perniagaan yang produktif tidak dapat berkembang sehingga imbuhan tinggi daripada korupsi dikurangkan. Kapitalisme yang berteraskan keuntungan kerap bergantung kepada sokongan nilai-nilai lain yang telah terinstitusi.

Kepatuhan dan tanggungjawab undang–undang dan moral yang berkaitan soal jual-beli baru–baru ini semakin susah dikesan, ini adalah disebabkan oleh perkembangan pasaran sekunder yang pesat melibatkan derivatif dan instrumen kewangan yang lain. Pemiutang subprima yang menipu peminjam dalam mengambil risiko yang kurang bijak kini boleh melepaskan aset kewangan kepada pihak ketiga–yang jauh daripada transaksi asal. Kebertanggungjawaban telah melemah dan keperluan untuk pemantauan dan regulasi telah menjadi semakin kuat. Namun, peranan pemantauan kerajaan di Amerika Syarikat terutamanya, dalam tempoh yang sama, berkurangan mendadak, akibat bertambahnya kepercayaan terhadap sifat pengaturan kendiri (self – regulatory) pasaran ekonomi. Secara tepatnya, ketika keperluan terhadap pengawasan negara meningkat, yang terjadi ialah berkurangnya pemantauan yang diperlukan itu. Terdapat kesan daripada bencana yang bakal terjadi, yang terjadi pada tahun lepas, dan hal ini sememangnya penyumbang besar kepada krisis kewangan yang melanda dunia hari ini. Kekurangan regulasi terhadap aktiviti kewangan mempunyai implikasi bukan sahaja terhadap amalan tidak absah tetapi juga kecenderungan kepada spekulasi berlebihan seperti yang dikatakan oleh Adam Smith, di mana ia akan menguasai manusia di dalam kesungguhan mereka mencari keuntungan.

Smith menggelar penganjur-penganjur bagi risiko berlebihan dalam mencari keuntungan sebagai “pemboros dan pengecoh”—yang mana agak tepat dalam menggambarkan pengeluar-pengeluar subprima dalam beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini. Ketika membincangkan undang-undang terhadap riba, sebagai contoh, Smith inginkan peraturan yang melindungi rakyat daripada “pemboros dan pengecoh” tersebut yang menganjurkan pinjaman-pinjaman yang tidak munasabah: Sebahagian besar daripada ibu negara ini dengan demikian seharusnya dilindungi daripada tangan-tangan itu yang berkemungkinan besar akan membuat untung dan mengambil peluang ke atas mereka, dan daripada terperangkap dengan tangan-tangan yang akan membazir dan memusnahkannya.
Kepercayaan mutlak terhadap keupayaan ekonomi pasaran untuk melakukan pembetulan kendiri, yang sebahagian besar bertanggungjawab dalam membuang peraturan-peraturan yang telah mapan di Amerika Syarikat, cenderung untuk mengabaikan aktiviti-aktiviti yang dilakukan oleh pemboros dan pengecoh yang dalam sebilangan perkara akan mengejutkan Adam Smith sendiri.

Krisis ekonomi sekarang ini sebahagiannya adalah dihasilkan oleh salah jangkaan yang sangat besar akan kebijaksanaan proses pasaran itu, dan krisis tersebut sekarang ini diburukkan lagi dengan kebimbangan dan merosotnya kepercayaan dalam pasaran kewangan dan perniagaan secara umumnya—tindakbalas yang nyata dalam reaksi pasaran terhadap rancangan-rancangan stimulus, termasuk rancangan $787 bilion yang diluluskan pada bulan Februari oleh pentadbiran baru Obama. Sebenarnya, masalah-masalah ini telah pun dikenal pasti dalam kurun ke–18 oleh Smith, walaupun telah diabaikan oleh mereka yang berautoriti dalam tahun–tahun kebelakangan ini, terutama sekali di Amerika Syarikat, dan mereka yang sibuk memetik Adam Smith dalam menyokong pasaran tak terkendali.

Ketika kebelakangan ini banyak yang memetik Adam Smith, meskipun tidak banyak yang membacanya, terdapat kebangkitan semula baru-baru ini terhadap idea John Maynard Keynes. Sudah tentu, kemerosotan kumulatif yang kita perhatikan sekarang, yang membawa kita lebih dekat terhadap kemelesetan, mempunyai ciri-ciri Keynesian yang jelas; pengurangan pendapatan sekumpulan orang telah membawa kepada pengurangan perbelanjaan oleh mereka, kesannya menyebabkan merosotnya pendapatan orang lain.

Bagaimanapun, Keynes boleh menjadi penyelamat kita hanya dalam kadar yang tertentu sahaja, dan terdapat satu keperluan untuk melihat melampuainya dalam memahami krisis sekarang. Seorang ahli ekonomi yang penting untuk sekarang ini tetapi kurang dikenali adalah saingan Keynes, Arthur Cecil Pigou, yang seperti Keynes, juga di Cambridge, dan Kings College, ketika zaman Keynes. Pigou lebih prihatin daripada Keynes dalam soal psikologi ekonomi dan cara–cara bagaimana ia boleh mempengaruhi kitaran perniagaan dan membuatkan kemerosotan ekonomi yang lebih teruk sehingga boleh membawa kita kepada kemelesetan (seperti dilihat sekarang). Pigou mengaitkan naik turun ekonomi sebahagiannya dengan “sebab-sebab psikologikal” yang mengandungi pelbagai corak fikiran individu-individu yang tindakan mereka mengawal industri, yang memunculkan kesilapan–kesilapan dari optimisme berlebihan atau pesimisme yang tidak wajar dalam ramalan perniagaan mereka.

Adalah sukar untuk mengabaikan kenyataan pada hari ini, tambahan pula dengan kesan–kesan Keynesian yang mempercepatkan kemerosotan, kita masih lagi dapat merasakan “kesilapan–kesilapan…pesimisme yang tidak wajar.” Pigou memfokuskan terutamanya keperluan untuk mencairkan pasaran kredit apabila ekonomi berada dalam cengkaman pesimisme berlebihan: Oleh itu, jika semuanya adalah setara, berlakunya kegagalan perniagaan akan lebih atau kurang merebak, berdasarkan [sama ada] pinjaman jurubank–jurubank, berhadapan dengan krisis permintaan (atau tuntutan), adalah kurang atau lebih mudah diperoleh.

Walaupun suntikan-suntikan besar kecairan tunai ke dalam ekonomi Amerika dan Eropah, sebahagian besarnya daripada kerajaan, bank–bank dan institusi kewangan itu hingga sekarang masih kekal tidak berkeinginan untuk menyahbeku pasaran kredit. Perniagaan lain juga terus gagal, sebahagiannya sebagai tindak balas terhadap pengurangan permintaan (proses “multiplier” Keynesian), tetapi juga sebagai tindak balas ketakutan berkurangnya permintaan pada masa akan datang, dalam iklim kemuraman umum (proses pesimisme berjangkit Pigovian ).

Satu daripada masalah–masalah yang harus diuruskan pentadbiran Obama, adalah krisis sebenar, yang muncul daripada salah urus kewangan dan kecerobohan-kecerobohan lainnya, yang telah berkali–kali diperbesarkan oleh satu kejatuhan psikologi. Langkah-langkah itu yang sedang dibincangkan sekarang di Washington dan di tempat lain untuk menjana semula pasaran kredit termasuk pembiayaan semula–dengan syarat-syarat yang ketat bahawa institusi kewangan yang diberi subsidi itu sebenarnya meminjam–pembelian aset toksik oleh kerajaan, insurans yang melawan kegagalan membayar balik pinjaman, dan pemiliknegaraan bank. (Cadangan akhir menakutkan banyak konservatif sama halnya seperti kawalan wang awam diberikan kepada bank-bank, membimbangkan ramai orang tentang soal akauntabiliti.) Hasil tindak balas pasaran yang lemah, langkah-langkah pentadbiran setakat ini mencadangkan, setiap dasar-dasar ini hendaklah dikaji sebahagiannya tentang impak ke atas psikologi syarikat–syarikat dan pengguna–pengguna terutamanya di Amerika.

Perbezaan antara Pigou dan Keynes adalah relevan untuk satu lagi sebab. Ketika Keynes sangat–sangat menumpukan persoalan bagaimana untuk meningkatkan pendapatan agregat, dia agak kurang melibatkan diri dalam mengkaji masalah-masalah agihan kekayaan yang tidak setara dan kebajikan masyarakat. Berbanding Pigou yang bukan hanya menulis kajian klasik ekonomi kebajikan, tetapi dia juga merintis ukuran ketaksetaraan ekonomi sebagai satu penunjuk utama untuk taksiran ekonomi dan dasar. Sejak penderitaan rakyat yang serba kekurangan dari segi ekonomi—dan dalam dunia—memerlukan perhatian paling segera, peranan kerjasama sokongan antara perniagaan dan kerajaan tidak boleh hanya dengan berkembangnya sebuah ekonomi. Terdapat keperluan yang kritikal dalam memberi perhatian khusus untuk kelompok lemah di dalam masyarakat bagi merancang satu reaksi untuk krisis semasa, dan pergi lebih jauh untuk menghasilkan perkembangan ekonomi umum. Keluarga–keluarga terancam dengan pengangguran, dengan kekurangan rawatan perubatan, dan dengan masalah sosial serta ekonomi yang memburuk. Keterbatasan bagi ekonomi Keynesian dalam mengenal pasti masalah–masalah mereka menuntut pengiktirafan lebih besar lagi.

Cara ketiga di mana perlu diberi penambahan pada idea Keynes oleh kerana pengabaiannya terhadap khidmat sosial—bahkan Otto von Bismarck pun ada banyak perkara dapat diperkatakan tentang subjek ini berbanding Keynes. Bahawa pasaran ekonomi boleh menjadi sangat buruk dalam menyediakan keperluan awam (seperti pendidikan dan penjagaan kesihatan) telah dibincangkan oleh beberapa ahli-ahli ekonomi utama pada masa ini, termasuk Paul Samuelson dan Kenneth Arrow. (Pigou juga menyumbang kepada subjek ini dengan penekanannya pada “kesan-kesan luar” urus niaga pasaran, di mana keuntungan dan kerugian tidak terbatas hanya untuk pembeli atau penjual secara langsung.) Hal ini sudah tentu merupakan satu isu jangka panjang, tetapi ia adalah berbaloi untuk disebut seperkara lagi bahawa kesan suatu kemerosotan boleh menjadi lebih ganas lagi apabila penjagaan kesihatan khususnya tidak terjamin bagi semua.

Sebagai contoh, tanpa satu perkhidmatan kesihatan nasional (national health service), setiap kali berlaku kehilangan pekerjaan boleh menghasilkan satu penyisihan besar daripada penjagaan kesihatan yang penting, disebabkan kehilangan pendapatan atau insurans kesihatan swasta berkaitan pekerjaan. Amerika Syarikat kini mempunyai 7.6 peratus kadar pengangguran, yang mula menyebabkan kehilangan yang besar. Adalah berbaloi bertanya bagaimana negara-negara Eropah, termasuk Perancis, Itali, dan Sepanyol, yang hidup pada peringkat yang lebih tinggi penganggurannya selama berdekad–dekad, berjaya mengelak keruntuhan keseluruhan kualiti hidup mereka. Jawapan itu sebahagiannya adalah cara negara kebajikan Eropah beroperasi, dengan insurans pengangguran yang lebih kukuh daripada Amerika dan, malah apa yang lebih penting, dengan perkhidmatan perubatan asas diperuntukkan kepada semua oleh negera.

Kegagalan mekanisme pasaran untuk menyediakan penjagaan kesihatan kepada semua jelas, paling khususnya di Amerika Syarikat, begitu juga kemajuan kesihatan dan kelanjutan usia di China terhenti berikutan pemansuhan perlindungan kesihatan menyeluruh (universal health care) pada tahun 1979. Sebelum pembaharuan ekonomi tahun itu, setiap warganegara China telah dijamin penjagaan kesihatan yang disediakan oleh negera atau koperasi–koperasi, walaupun jika pada suatu peringkat asas. Apabila China membuang sistemnya yang tidak produktif yang melibatkan pertanian kolektif dan; masyarakat dan unit-unit perindustrian yang diuruskan oleh birokrasi, ia dengan itu membuatkan kadar pertumbuhan keluaran dalam negeri kasar meningkat lebih cepat berbanding mana–mana tempat di dunia. Tetapi pada masa yang sama, dipacu oleh kepercayaan barunya dalam pasaran ekonomi, China juga memansuhkan sistem penjagaan kesihatan menyeluruh; dan, selepas pembaharuan pada tahun 1979, insurans kesihatan perlu dibeli oleh individu (kecuali dalam beberapa kes-kes agak jarang di mana negera atau syarikat-syarikat besar menyediakannya untuk pekerja-pekerja dan tanggungan mereka). Dengan perubahan ini, prestasi China dalam soal kelanjutan usia menjadi perlahan.

Hal ini sudah satu masalah apabila pendapatan agregat China tumbuh sangat pantas, tetapi ia terikat untuk menjadi satu masalah yang lebih besar apabila ekonomi China itu menyahpecut dengan pesat, seperti yang berlaku sekarang. Kerajaan China kini berusaha keras untuk beransur–ansur memperkenalkan semula insurans kesihatan bagi semua, dan kerajaan AS di bawah Obama juga komited untuk membuat perlindungan kesihatan yang menyeluruh. Bagi kedua-dua negara, China dan AS, masih banyak lagi yang pembetulan yang perlu dilakukan, tetapi mereka harus menjadi elemen utama dalam menangani krisis ekonomi, serta dalam mencapai transformasi jangka panjang kedua-dua masyarakat.

Kebangkitan semula Keynes mempunyai banyak sumbangan terhadap analisis ekonomi dan terhadap polisi, tetapi jaring jalanya itu harus ditebar dengan lebih luas. Walaupun Keynes selalunya dilihat sebagai figur yang “memberontak” di dalam ekonomi kontemporari, tetapi dia adalah orang yang menjadi guru kepada kapitalisme baru yang menumpukan pada usaha untuk menstabilkan turun-naik ekonomi pasar (dengan hanya memberi perhatian yang relatif kecil pada sebab-sebab psikologi di dalam naik-turun perniagaan). Walaupun Smith dan Pigou mempunyai reputasi untuk menjadi ahli ekonomi yang konservatif, terdapat pelbagai pandangan yang mendalam tentang institusi-institusi bukan pasar dan nilai-nilai bukan untung daripada mereka, berbanding dengan Keynes dan para pengikutnya.

Krisis bukan hanya menghadirkan cabaran yang harus dihadapi. Ia juga menyediakan satu peluang untuk menangani masalah-masalah jangka panjang ketika mana ramai orang bersedia untuk menilai semula konvensi-konvensi yang telah lama terbina. Itulah sebabnya kenapa krisis sekarang ini menjadikannya penting untuk berhadapan dengan isu-isu yang telah lama diabaikan seperti penjagaan alam semulajadi dan penjagaan kesihatan nasional, begitu juga dengan pengangkutan awam yang diabaikan di dalam beberapa dekad sebelum ini dan terus dipinggirkan–ketika saya menulis artikel ini–bahkan di dalam dasar-dasar awal yang diumumkan oleh pentadbiran Obama. Kemampuan ekonomi, sudah tentu adalah suatu isu, tetapi sebagai contoh sebuah negeri di India, Kerala menunjukkan bahawa adalah mungkin untuk mempunyai penjagaan kesihatan yang dijamin oleh negara untuk semua rakyat dengan kos yang sedikit. Semenjak China menghentikan insurans kesihatan menyeluruh pada tahun 1979, Kerala–yang terus menjalankannya– telah mendahului China di dalam soal purata jangka hayat dan di dalam petunjuk-petunjuk jangka hidup bayi, walaupun mengalami kadar pendapatan yang lebih rendah. Jadi terdapat peluang untuk negara-negara miskin juga.

Tetapi cabaran yang lebih besar dihadapi oleh Amerika Syarikat, yang telah pun mempunyai perbelanjaan per kapita yang tinggi di dalam soal kesihatan antara negara-negara lain di dunia, tetapi masih mempunyai pencapaian yang rendah di dalam soal kesihatan dan mempunyai lebih 40 juta rakyat yang tidak terjamin penjagaan kesihatannya. Sebahagian daripada masalahnya ialah sikap orang awam dan kefahaman mereka. Terdapat banyak persepsi yang tidak betul bagaimana perkhidmatan kesihatan kebangsaan perlu diperbetulkan melalui debat-debat umum. Sebagai contoh, andaian yang biasa dibuat bahawa tiada orang yang mempunyai pilihan untuk memilih doktor di dalam sistem perkhidmatan kesihatan di negara-negara Eropah, sedangkan itu tidak benar sama sekali.

Pun begitu, perlunya kefahaman yang lebih baik terdapat pilihan yang ada. Dalam diskusi-diskusi perubahan perkhidmatan kesihatan, terdapat penumpuan yang berlebihan terhadap sistem Kanada–suatu sistem perkhidmatan kesihatan yang menyukarkan orang untuk mendapatkan perkhidmatan kesihatan swasta–manakala di negara-negara Eropah Barat yang menyediakan perkhidmatan kepada semua tetapi membenarkan juga, sebagai tambahan kepada tanggungan negara, praktis swasta dan insurans kesihatan swasta, untuk mereka yang mempunyai wang dan mahu membelanjakannya dengan cara itu. Adalah tidak jelas kenapa orang kaya yang dapat dengan bebas membelanjakan wangnya pada kapal layar dan barang-barang mewah lainnya tidak harus dibenarkan untuk berbelanja pada MRIs atau pengimbas CT. Jika kita mengambil iktibar dari perbahasan Adam Smith di dalam soal kepelbagaian institusi dan meraikan pelbagai kehendak, terdapat banyak langkah-langkah praktikal yang boleh diambil yang dapat menghasilkan perubahan di dalam dunia yang kita diami sekarang ini.

Krisis ekonomi yang dihadapi sekarang ini tidak, pada hujah saya, menuntut kepada suatu “kapitalisme baru,” tetapi krisis itu menuntut kita untuk mendapat kefahaman baru terhadap idea-idea lama, seperti mana Smith dan, yang lebih dekat dengan masa kita, Pigou, yang selama ini banyak kita abaikan. Apa yang diperlukan juga adalah persepsi-persepsi yang jernih bagaimana berbezanya institusi-institusi itu sebenarnya berfungsi, dan bagaimana pelbagai organisasi-organisasi–daripada pasar sehinggalah institusi-institusi negara–dapat melampaui solusi-solusi jangka pendek dan menyumbang kepada wujudnya sebuah dunia ekonomi yang lebih baik. Dari 1 sudut yang berbeza, ia adalah masa yang sesuai juga bagi kapitalis ‘baru’ untuk menguasai pasaran dunia memandangkan kejatuhan pemain-pemain ekonomi kini.

ASSALAMUALAIKUM dan SALAM SEJAHTERA..:))

Pada 5 hingga 7 Mac yang lalu, seramai 15 orang FLAIRIANS yang terdiri daripada pelajar Degree Sem 2 telah mewakili UDM dalam ALSA (Asia Law Students Association)National Conference yang bertempat di UKM, Bangi. Delegasi ini turut diiringi oleh Miss Kamalia.

Program selama 2 hari 2 malam itu dimulakan dengan sesi forum yang bertajuk "IS THE PERAK CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS SOLVED?" Pada sesi tersebut, para peserta dapat mendengar kupasan isu oleh Mr Edmund Boo, Constitutional Committee Chairperson, Mr Malik Imtiaz, seorang peguam dan Dr Che Norlia,Pensyarah Constitutional Law UKM. Forum yang dipengerusikan oleh Professor Madya Dr faridah Jalil itu ternyata hangat apabila para panel jemputan masing-masing menyatakan pendapat. Kehangatan bertambah apabila sesi soal jawab berlangsung. Mr Edmund Boo yang merupakan salah seorang peguam kepada Dr Nizar berkata bahawa bahawa "Vote of no confidence "terhadap Nizar tidak pernah berlaku, maka beliau berpendapat bahawa DUN Perak tidak boleh dibubarkan. Sementara itu, Malik Imtiaz turut bersetuju dengan Mr Edmund dan beliau merujuk kepada kes STEPHEN KALONGNINGKARN.Beliau berulang kali membangkitkan isu demokrasi dan menyatakan bahawa "the word or term of democracy seems to be ridiculous when it has been violated" Berbanding dengan 2 ahli panel yang lain, Dr Che Norlia berulang kali menyatakan bahawa beliau bersetuju dengan keputusan Federal Court dalam kes Dr Nizar. Beliau merujuk kepada kes DATU AMIR KAHAR yang dirasakan lebih relevan berbanding kes STEPHEN yang mana dalam kes DATU AMIR KAHAR, mahkamah memutuskan bahawa kerajaan tidak perlu melihat atau merujuk kepada undi tidak percaya. Menurut beliau "the land not only belong to the rakyat but also to the raja"

Keesokan harinya, pada pagi 6hb, dekan Fakulti Undang-Undang UKM merangkap penasihat ALSA UKM dan MALAYSIA telah merasmikan ALSA NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2010. Dalam ucapannya beliau mengucapkan terima kasih dn tahniah kepada delegasi setiap universiti yang terdiri daripada UDM, UITM, ,UM,USIM, KUIS, HELP COLLEGE dan UKM sendiri kerana sudi menjadi sebahagian daripada ALSA. Selepas itu, para peserta mengikuti sesi bersama Mr Simon K wakil dari SUHAKAM yang berkisar tentang HUMAN'S RIGHT. Beliau menyatakan bahawa setiap manusia tanpa mengira pangkat, darjat, warna kulit dan sebagainya berhak untuk menuntut hak mereka. Contohnya, mereka yang dibuang kerja juga boleh merujuk kepada SUHAKAM sekiranya mereka berasa bahawa hak mereka dicerobohi. Selepas itu, Mr Azmi Ali, seorang peguam berkongsi pengalaman beliau bersama peserta. Dalam sesi yang sungguh santai itu, beliau mengingatkan para perserta yang dianggap sebagai future lawyers untuk bersedia dari segi mental dan fizikal untuk menjadi peguam yang hebat. Sebelum waktu makan tengahari tiba, para peserta mengikuti sesi taklimat ringkas bersama Mr Azizan, wakil daripada LAW PROFESSOR.

Para peserta dibahagikan kepada 14 kumpulan yang mana 7 kumpulan mewakili Public Prosecutor dan 7 kumpulan lagi mewakili Defense Consel. Para Peserta kemudiannya diminta mengkaji kes yang diberikan (kes rogol) sebelum diarah mencari bahan bukti untuk dibawa ke mahkamah. Program ala explorace itu sememangnya menarik dan bagus kerana para peserta didedahkan dengan situasi sebenar, mengumpul bukti. selepas itu, para peserta diminta kembali ke dalam kumpulan masing-masing dan sesi perbicaraan bermula. pada sesi tersebut, Mohd Izzat Amir dari UDM dipilih sebagai Public Prosecutor terbaik sementara Kumpulan yang dianggotai oleh Rumaysa Nadia, Nurul Shafina, Mohd Faiz, Nor Habibah dan Mohd Naqiuddin menang bagi kategori kepantasan dan ketepatan mencari bahan bukti. Begitu juga kumpulan yang diwakili oleh Nur Hafizah Zakaria dan Madihah Nikmah Hamidim. Syabas FLAIRIANS!!!

Basir.Pada sesi tersebut, para peserta diberitahu bagaimana sebenarnya negara kita jauh ketinggalan berbanding Singapura, Thailand dan Indonesia dalam bidang ekonomi. Dr Salawati turut berkongsi pengalaman berkhidmat di luar negara dan berulang kali menyatakan kesyukuran kerana pengalaman itu banyak membuka mata dan menyedarkan beliau bahawa kita masih jauh ketinggalan dan betapa kita sebenarnya dimanipulasi oleh US.
