Hi there! Welcome to the new cyber interface of RoH Malaysia!

As you can see, we now have an entirely new looking blog which we hope to update rather frequently. We also hope for this site to be a resource cite for you to download papers or articles we might have written and feel would be beneficial for you.

None of us on the RoH Malaysia team are literate enough to have set up a blog like this entirely on our own! Thank you, Sunflower, for helping us with this.

So people, keep your eyes on this new site in the weeks to come. There'll be changes, big and small. This will be part of our series of attempts to create ripples of change in society in Malaysia and beyond.

Hi there! If you're visiting our new facelifted web interface for the first time, WELCOME!

Do feel free to browse through everything you can find on this site. It's perhaps the first best thing you can do to get acquainted with RoH Malaysia.

While you're at it, do look up our Resources page where we have uploaded documents (long and short!) to resource your understanding of what's going on in Malaysia.

A very happy early February to you! And for those of you who'll be celebrating the Chinese New Year next week, here's wishing you a very Happy New Year!

This month promises to be an exciting month in charting further milestones in RoH Malaysia. Our team will be holding our first gathering for the year at the end of the month, and we'll be discussing some crucial issues pertaining to the direction of this effort.

We'll keep you updated in due time. Meanwhile, please pray with us!

Greetings!

For many of our Chinese friends in Malaysia and beyond, the Chinese New Year has just been concluded with the 15th day being celebrated yesterday. So it's time to move on with the rest of the year now! Even for we at RoH Malaysia.

The very first gathering of the RoH Team for this year will be taking place today at 7 pm in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan. Many issues, plans, and intentions will be discussed at this meeting.

We will keep you updated on the results of our prayers and discussions. For that, please visit this blog regularly. Meanwhile, please pray for the Spirit of God to guide our hearts and minds as we deliberate on these issues.

Keep journeying with us as we labour together with you in a spirit of unity and solidarity.

Blessings to you and to those you love!

The first gathering of the RoH Malaysia Team went well! As always, we began with a crazily sumptuous meal whipped up by Veron! And once our tummies were satisfied and our tongues burning with the heavily spiced prawn sambal, we were ready to begin serious discussions.

One of the concerns of RoH Malaysia has always been that our team should reflect a balance in its gender configuration, its expertise in theological and social-scientific knowledge, its involvement in intellectual reflection and practical activism, as well as its faith representations between Protestant and Catholic Christians.

As a result, there has been a need to undertake a slight expansion in our team in order to preserve the intended balance in our configuration.

To this end, we're very happy to welcome Alwyn onto our the RoH Malaysia Team! Alwyn is no new face to us. For some, he's quite an old friend. Here's the biography of Alwyn that has been added onto our People page:

Alwyn Lau
BScHons Economics (University of London, UK);
BD Hons (University of London, UK);
MBA cand. (Universitas 21 Global).

More updates to come!

This is a public statement from RoH Malaysia pertaining to our participation in the politics of the nation, in order that our rhetorics may be received in proper perspective:

RoH Malaysia is committed to a non-partisan position in our political stance. As a team, we neither stand in support of nor against any political party in Malaysia. Our utmost concern reflects the concern of the Body of Christ: justice and peace. As we seek to uphold the dignity of the marginalised in society, we are committed to articulating our concerns regarding relevant issues in accordance with the theological and ethical standards of the Church. That these articulations pertaining to any socio-political reality implicates upon particular political positions and parties does not at all or at any time reflect a spirit of political partisanship on our part.
