    an opportunity to use Basques mother tongue as main language in apple.

    English/ (Beherago)Euskaraz For both the culture and the survival of the Basque Language (Euskara), we feel it is essential to use the language in our every day lives and of course we want it to use it with modern-day technology too. For many of us it is necessary to use our language in this global world which has become so technological. However, we are not afforded the same language options the way other ethnicities are. We ask that the Basque Language (Euskara) be integrated in systems like Apple, Microsoft, etc. As it is now, we are forced to go through various steps to attempt to interpret from Euskara to another language or another language to Euskara. I.e. Translating from English to Spanish then Spanish to Euskara. In this process the meaning and/or integrity of what is written or being said can be lost in translation. We ask you to join us, the people (Euskaldunak) of The Basque Country (Euskal Herria), to petition the large technological companies to recognize and include our language into their systems. In doing so we will have the ability to use computer/technology systems properly and more effectively. Thank you!  Kultura eta hizkuntzaren biziraupenerako, ezinbestekoa da egunero hizkuntza erabiltzea eta, jakina, teknologia arloan maneiatu. Beraz, gutako askok, ados gaude gure hizkuntza mundu globalizatu honetan teknologia gisa erabili behar dugula. Beraz, Euskara Appleko sistemetan erabil ahal izan beharko lirateke, bere hizkuntza nagusi gisa, beste hizkuntzetara jo gabe eta sistema behar bezala erabiltzeko gai izateko.

    Petition to Ministry of Health, Public Service Department, Malaysia, Ministry of Education

    Fair Wage Scheme and Equal opportunity in Postgraduate Training for Junior Doctors!

    It all begun with the emergence of the newly created contract scheme for the House Officer back in December 2016. Currently, the first batch of these House Officers have successfully completed their 2+1 years of contract of service, and are now competent doctors with full MMC registrations. In June 2019, the first cohort of contract Medical Officers (MO) were appointed, amounting about 50+ junior doctors. The other 450+ of the first batch were finally absorbed as permanent, after a 6 months' wait as floating MOs. No prior hints were given and no transparency of the method of selection was announced by the MOH of Malaysia. This sudden news were continued with 2 more waves - the Second Cohort being on the late October and the Third Cohort in early November this year. In total, the amount of MOs being forced into the contract scheme is currently more than 500. Not to mention, the amount of junior doctors graduating from Housemanship programme monthly has kept on piling and training hospitals are now flooded with "floating" MOs that are anxiously waiting for their placement and future employment status. Not only that, the newly appointed contract MOs were not given any pay raise nor grade progression in the civil servants' scheme. They ought to remain in the grade of UD41 for the next 2 years, as opposed to their permanent counterparts. The difference in wage is not just "a little" as proclaimed by the Ministry, the basic salary itself differs at RM664 per month and totals up to RM7,968 per year, excluding the yearly increment. This is not only deemed stagnant, it also is a disgraceful downgrade of the wage scheme, as the House Officers' wage has an added Flexi allowance that amounts RM600 more. The workload as a contract Medical Officer with grade UD41 is no different from their colleagues on the permanent UD44 schemes. So, where is the fairness in this? Is this just another form of cheap labour, or some call it modern slavery? Another big concern is the fair chance to compete into Postgraduate training programmes (Masters/Residency) in Public Universities. These programmes have strict entrance eligibilities and that includes a permanent employment status and 3 years of experience in the field applied. This is viewed as unfair and discriminatory. The Ministry has proposed an alternative/parallel pathways for post-graduate training, but this does not apply across all the speciality trainings such as the surgical based programmes. In addition, there is no job security after the 2 years contract ends. There was no proper guidelines announced for criteria of permanent employment after these MOs have completed their compulsory service. This is again, very vague to these young budding doctors. Thus, we demand that the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education and the Public Service Department go into great detailed re-considerations on the new contract scheme. We urge the public to sign this petition to highlight our concerns into public awareness and to gain invariable support in our cause!

    Petition to Robin Walker Grant

    “Another opportunity for Meko”

      My name is Robin Walker Grant. I am the mother of Meko Rashad Walker and I’m here to ask the Federal Western District court for another chance for my son. There are some things I would like to share about him. He’s the only son of his father, Willie E.  Brown and I. Meko is a proud father of his only daughter Kimora Dior Walker. He’s also the greatest brother to five sisters: Franshascia, Candiss, Deonka, Kenyannia, and India. He’s very family oriented.     One of the reasons why I would like to plea for another chance in life for my son, every mother has a special place in their heart for their son! Meko is a magnificent son an exceptional young man. He beat the odds because there are few young men that graduate from high school. My son graduated from Carroll High School class of 2001. He’s the type that you would love to be around. Meko loves life, he’s respectful to anyone that he meets. Meko has spent a great deal away from his family but even from jail he still managed to give us words of encouragement. I would love to see my son reunite with his daughter which is the apple of his eye.     Meko has always held a job. My son is a great father, he is the type of child anyone would be proud to call him their son. I’m asking that the courts consider what I’m saying and give him another chance to make it right. Meko loves God and his family. I believe he’s a wonderful person not only because I’m his mother but as a person he will prevail through this. Another chance in life for the great Meko Walker.
