Two central themes run through The Due Process of Law. The first is the workings of the various “measures authorized by the law so as to keep the streams of justice pure”-that is to say, contempt of court, judicial inquiries, and powers of arrest and search. The second is the recent development of family law, focusing particularly on Lord Denning’s contribution to the law of husband and wife. These broad themes are elaborated through a discussion of Lord Denning’s own judgments and opinions on a wide range of topics.

Paradise Lost: Mahathir and The End of Hope
RM60.00Paradise Lost takes a critical look at Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s role in Malaysia’s political evolution and his ultimately destructive legacy of corruption, racism and religious extremism. He inherited a nation pregnant with promise and left it mired in division, uncertainty and instability, a grand kleptopia, a terrible kakistocracy. It also examines the role Mahathir played in Pakatan Harapan’s stunning 2018 electoral victory and his subsequent betrayal of the coalition he was entrusted to lead. The end result is a nation in deep crisis, adrift in a sea of uncertainty, unable to come to terms with its past, unwilling to make the compromises necessary for its future. Paradise Lost makes for sober reading. Intensely provocative, it challenges long-established shibboleths, spotlights the dangers now confronting the nation and argues that Malaysia’s only hope for redemption lies in embracing and harnessing its unique multicultural identity. This timely book will engender much needed public dialogue about the future of Malaysia.

Upholding The Federal Constitution: The Judicial Thoughts Of Dato’ Seri Hishamudin Yunus
RM100.00This book is dedicated to those who believe in, and fight for, the independence of the judiciary.
The commentaries contained in this book discuss the key decision of Dato’ Seri Hishamudin Yunus, a retired Malaysian Court of Appeal Judge, who firmly subscribes to the principles of judicial independence. His commitment to judicial independence stems from his appreciation for an effective check and balance mechanism to ensure that the Executive and the Legislature act within their constitutional limits.
Justice Hishamudin regards law as an embodiment of justice and his decision gave life to many provisions in relation to fundamental rights in the Federal Constitution of Malaysia. As an impartial judge, he ruled without fear or favor, always being true to his judicial oath to uphold the law and the Federal Constitution – for this, he had to pay a price, where he was not elevated to the highest court of Malaysia, the Federal Court, by then government in 2015 despite being the most senior Court of Appeal Judge.
This book discusses the landmark decision of Justice Hishamuddin, who has written more than 700 judgments during his 23 years on the beach.
