<br />
<a href="http://kict.iium.edu.my/survey/">http://kict.iium.edu.my/survey/</a><br />
<br />
There is currently an initiative to establish a Board of Computing Professionals Malaysia (BCPM), which will function to accredit ICT academic programmes, as well as to promote, facilitate and regulate the profession (very much like the Board of Engineers for engineering, and the Bar Council for the legal profession, etc.). This initiative is under the purview of the Ministry of Science and Innovation (MOSTI) and led by the National ICT Human Resource Task Force under the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) and within the ICT Human Capital Development Framework.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
We would like to invite all ICT practitioners and those related to the profession to participate in an on-line survey that will be open for responses from Monday 28 June 2012 (00:00) to Monday 11 June 2012 (24:00). The survey aims to solicit feedback from the ICT community to determine the overall suitability and general acceptance to the proposal for the establishment of the BCPM. The survey site is at<br />
<br />
<a href="http://kict.iium.edu.my/survey/">http://kict.iium.edu.my/survey/</a><br />
<br />
The introduction to the survey and the instructions for filling the questionnaire will be provided at the stated site, as well as a link to another site that provides the general context to the proposal. Although we do not foresee any problem that may occur at the said site, should there be difficulties, an alternative site will be made available at <a href="http://cserver.cs.usm.my/bcpm/">http://cserver.cs.usm.my/bcpm/</a>.<br />
<br />
For those who are able to attend, there will be an awareness and Q&A session followed by a paper survey to be held at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC), Putrajaya Precinct 5, on Monday 28 June 2012. A formal session will be held at 9.00-12.30 am, and informal sessions will be during 2.30-5.00 pm. <br />
<br />
We look forward to your participation in the survey and thank you in advance.<br />

<br />
<b><span class="c13">Objective</span></b></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
<span class="c2">This
questionnaire is to solicit feedback from the ICT community to
determine the overall suitability and general acceptance to the proposal
for the establishment of the <b>Board of Computing Professionals Malaysia
(BCPM).</b></span></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b><span class="c13" style="color: blue;">Context</span></b><span class="c2"><span style="color: blue;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2">The proposal for the establishment of the BCPM is the third of three strategic thrusts recommended by the </span><span class="c2 c7">National ICT Human Resource Task Force</span><span class="c2"> under the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) within the </span><span class="c2 c7">ICT Human Capital Development Framework</span><span class="c2">.
The framework provides a set of national initiatives towards producing
more resilient ICT graduates and transforming the country into a
producer nation in ICT software and applications. This is to be attained
via the developent of a sufficiently large and readily available pool
of highly competent computing professionals, being those who innovate,
design, implement and maintain computers, computing systems, and
computing applications. [More details are available at</span><span class="c2 c22"> <a href="http://goo.gl/nXBwb">http://goo.gl/nXBwb</a></span><span class="c2">]</span></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2">A draft Bill (RUU – </span><span class="c2 c7">Rang Undang-Undang</span><span class="c2">)
for this purpose had been prepared in December 2011, which was
circulated for a preliminary discussion on an Open Day held at MOSTI on
Tuesday 13 December 2011, with the period for feedback left open until
Friday 30 January 2012. The feedback obtained was analysed and
discussed, which subsequently led to the contents of the questionnaire
in this survey.</span></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2">This
survey will be open for responses, either through face-to-face at the
end of a series of awareness programme sessions, or through a portal,
for a period of 15 days from Monday 28 May to Monday 11 June. The
results of this survey will be analysed and the appropriate
recommendations will be forwarded to the Ministry of Science and
Innovations (MOSTI) for the appropriate action. Ultimately, based on the
results, the draft Bill/RUU will be:</span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span class="c2">Amended accordingly and tabled at Parliament for adoption; or</span><span class="c2"> </span></li>
<li><span class="c2">Adopted via other means (e.g. via Industry); or</span><span class="c2"> </span></li>
<li><span class="c2">Abandoned altogether.</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="c11 c16" style="color: blue; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b><span class="c13">Underlying Intentions</span></b><span class="c13"> </span></div>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2 c6">First and foremost, it is crucial to note that the Bill/RUU is only a </span><span class="c2">vehicle</span><span class="c2 c6">, where the exact </span><span class="c2">underlying intentions</span><span class="c2 c6"> </span><span class="c2 c15">are to have the following:</span></div>
<div class="c0" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span class="c2 c6 c7">To
establish a class of Professionals that can be distinguished from
ordinary IT providers and will also guarantee a certain level of
expertise/standards and be accountable for their services. </span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><span class="c2 c6 c7"> </span><span class="c2 c6 c7">To
attain international recognition and/or equivalence, especially via the
Seoul Accord (see below), and in particular for our Computing/ICT
degrees.</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="c11 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2"> The
questionnaire will address the six points that support the underlying
intentions for the establishment of the BCPM, the associated Bill, and
the overall implementation, namely the following:</span>
<span class="c2 c12"> </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span class="c2 c12">1. The need for Certification of Professionals and to sign the Seoul Accord:</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c18 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2">There
has always been a strong desire to make our Computing/ICT graduates
have a professional status (akin to engineers, medical doctors,
accountants, etc.) as well as be internationally recognised as such.
Three points are very relevant here:</span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">The
best way to achieve both is to sign the Seoul Accord (equivalent to the
Washington Accord for engineering), which will not only enforce the
maintenance of the required level to be considered professionals, but it
also provides a status that is recognised worldwide.</span></li>
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">However,
all signatories of the Seoul Accord need to have a Board (or Society or
any entity) that is equivalent to the proposed BCPM, which will have to
be accorded the necessary authority and be responsible to audit and
accredit Computing/ICT programmes, to register professional members, and
to regulate them.</span></li>
<li class="c23 c16 c36"><span class="c2">It
is important to note that with the professional status comes a
considerably high degree of responsibility, especially in terms of a
guarantee of quality and accountability.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span class="c2 c12">2. The need for a Bill/RUU: </span></b></div>
<div class="c11 c16 c35" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2">Unlike
in many countries, it is by tradition and practice that all Boards of
Professionals in Malaysia had been set up via an Act of Parliament, and
this is strongly perceived to be so (else, few will feel the compulsion
to adhere to the Board’s regulations). In any case, </span><span class="c2 c6">the Bill can be seen to be the surest and fastest way of getting the underlying intentions implemented.</span>
<span class="c2 c12"> </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span class="c2 c12">3. Registration with BCPM will be voluntary:</span></b></div>
<ol class="c4" start="3" style="text-align: justify;">
</ol>
<div class="c18 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2">Once the BCPM is set up, four points are of major relevance:</span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">Graduates
from the BCPM (hence Seoul Accord) accredited degrees will
automatically qualify to be Registered Computing Practitioners, and
later become Registered Computing Professionals after acquiring some
experience and satisfying certain criteria. </span></li>
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">Both
registrations will also be open to other graduates and even
non-graduates based on certain required and proven experience to be
established by the Board. </span></li>
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">The
above are essentially criteria to qualify for registration, but no
individual is compelled to be registered with the BCPM, and once
registered may also opt to de-register himself.</span></li>
<li class="c9"><span class="c2">There
have also been proposals to have the category of Registered Service
Providers for companies, but should this proposal be accepted,
registration will also be voluntary.</span><span class="c2 c12"> </span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span class="c2 c12">4. Regulatory matters apply only to BCPM registered members:</span></b></div>
<div class="c16 c18" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2">In the implementation of the Act and the BCPM, three points are to be noted:</span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">The
provisions of the Act and the ensuing regulations (from the Act and
from the Board) apply only to its registered members, and hence only to
individuals (and not the companies or institutions they represent). [The
exception would be for the Registered Service Providers should the
category be adopted.]</span></li>
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">The
above would mean that there will be no official regulations that would
compel projects (government or otherwise) to be proposed and carried out
only by BCPM registered members.</span></li>
<li class="c9"><span class="c2">Nonetheless,
it is also important to note that project owners (government or
otherwise) may voluntarily choose for their projects to be proposed and
carried out by BCPM registered members only – as is the case for a few
countries with their BCPM equivalent (and often with the addition of ISO
conditions).</span><span class="c2 c12"> </span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span class="c2 c12">5. The Board needs to be neutral:</span></b></div>
<div class="c18 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2">To
ensure acceptance by the ICT community, industry and the public in
general, the Board needs to be neutral at all levels and it has to be
seen to be so: </span></div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">This has to be in terms of its composition (the President and executive members), the decisions it makes, its actions, etc.</span></li>
<li class="c8"><span class="c2">Neutrality, impartiality and independence of the Board are also strict pre-conditions to qualify for signing the Seoul Accord. </span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span class="c2 c12">6. The Board needs to be sustainable:</span></b></div>
<div class="c18 c16" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2">Like
all other Boards of Professionals, BCPM has to be financially
sustainable (after a possible initial grant from the Government). This
would typically be from fees from accreditation exercises, subscriptions
from registered members, and from several professional activities.</span></div>

<b><span class="c1">The Seoul Accord</span></b></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">As
mentioned, one of the main reasons for establishing BCPM is to be able
to sign the Seoul Accord. Established in December 2008, the Seoul Accord
is a multi-lateral mutual recognition agreement among agencies
responsible for the accreditation or recognition of undergraduate
computing and IT related programmes.</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">The Seoul Accord's vision is to
become recognised internationally as a leader in defining and
promulgating standards and guidelines for the academic preparation of
computing professionals. The Seoul Accord is non-governmental and is not
affiliated with any country.</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">The
Seoul Accord has since become the international authority on quality
assurance and the promotion and development of best practices for the
improvement of education in the computing and IT-related professions.
The Accord establishes the equivalence in terms of outcomes relative to
the preparation for professional practice. </span><span class="c2">[More details (in particular, for governance and graduate attributes) are available at <a href="http://goo.gl/nXBwb">http://goo.gl/nXBwb</a> </span><span class="c22 c2"></span><span class="c2">]</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">One
of the many benefits of signing the Seoul Accord is that the agreement
and the resulting standard that it creates allows the Malaysian public
and private sector to recruit with confidence computing or Information
Technology workers from around the world with accredited degrees.</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">It
also helps graduates from Malaysian institutions of higher learning who
want to work or study abroad be recognised world-wide if Malaysia is a
signatory.</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">The accredited degrees here refer to those that comply with
the standards of the curricula and targeted graduate attributes as
stipulated by the Seoul Accord, which establishes an internationally
recognised ‘desired’ level of quality of programmes and graduates.</span></div>
<div class="c19" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">Currently there are eight signatories, </span><span class="c2">the
British Computer Society, Australian Computer Society, Canadian
Information Processing Society, ABET Inc (USA), JABEE (Japan), ABEEK
(Republic of Korea), HKIE (Hong Kong) and IEET (Taiwan).</span></div>
<div class="c11" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2"> </span><span class="c2 c6">The signatories to the Accord need to be authorities, agencies, or institutions that are </span><span class="c2 c12 c6">representative</span><span class="c2 c6"> of the computing and IT-related community and that have </span><span class="c2 c12 c6">statutory powers</span><span class="c2 c6"> or recognised professional authority for </span><span class="c2 c6 c12">accrediting/recognising programmes</span><span class="c2 c6"> designed
to satisfy the academic requirements for professional computing and
IT-related practice within a defined jurisdiction (e.g. country,
economy, geographic region).</span></div>
<div class="c11" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="c11" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6"><b>In Malaysia, by tradition and practice, a
Bill is required to empower/accord a body as such. </b></span><br />
<br />
<span class="c2 c6"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<span class="c2 c6">1) General Questions</span><br />
<br />
<span class="c2 c6"> 2) Part 1: The need for Certification of Professionals and to sign the Seoul Accord</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="c2 c6">There has always been a strong desire to make our Computing/ICT graduates have a professional status (akin to engineers, medical doctors, accountants, etc.) as well as be internationally recognised as such. Three points are very relevant here:</span></div>
</div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="c2 c6">The best way to achieve both is to sign the Seoul Accord (equivalent to the Washington Accord for engineering), which will not only enforce the maintenance of the required level to be considered professionals, but it also provides a status that is recognised worldwide.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="c2 c6">However, all signatories of the Seoul Accord need to have a Board (or Society or any entity) that is equivalent to the proposed BCPM, which will have to be accorded the necessary authority and be responsible to audit and accredit Computing/ICT programmes, to register professional members, and to regulate them.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span class="c2 c6">It is important to note that with the professional status comes a considerably high degree of responsibility, especially in terms of a guarantee of quality and accountability.</span></li>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
————————</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Firstly I would like to thank OSDC.my for inviting me to this dinner and also to talk on a subject about which I cannot claim to know much.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. I am 84 years of age, too old to learn new things. It is an embarrassment. I was among those who suggested Linux open source years ago. I had almost forgotten about it. And now you tell me you have an Open Source Development Club here in Malaysia. I read your brief Charter on OSDC.my. I must admit I can hardly understand it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. You talk in an entirely new language which I have difficulty in understanding. This is made worse by the frequent use of acronyms which I always fail to remember what they represent.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. I am amazed at the use of such words and terms like Foxie, Ubuntu, GNU, Perl, Ruby, Phyton, Fedora and many others, which are the names of animals, precious stones and clothing – it goes to show that technology creators can be whimsical and relate to the mundane and the ordinary. How else can a sophisticated thing like a computer be called Apple. Then you have search engines called Yahoo and Google.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. But the speed of progress in the information age is mind-boggling if we take for example the development of the telephone. The cellular phone which initially was to be a replacement for a limited range radio phone is today a computer, a calculator, a TV and Internet receiver and dispatcher, a camera and about everything else that we can imagine an electronic equipment can do. Its range now covers the whole globe, and the sound is fantastically clear. It once saved a man’s life from a tiger attack because he could call for help with his versatile cellular phone. I would have been eaten by the tiger because I don’t carry my cellular. I depend on my staff.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. The knowledge that we can access through the computer are limitless. It is said that we can study for a post graduate degree simply by owning a computer. Though not computer-savvy I have found the computer invaluable for verifying historical facts and data about almost any event that had taken place centuries ago or yesterday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7. But like all things available to men, knowledge and its acquisition can be for evil as much as for the good. The blogs for example can be used to demonize people, scare and frighten them and create panic. The SMS can be used for similar purposes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8. But we know how useful they can be for making the truth known and for individuals to air their views and feelings freely.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
9. I was told by some people a long time ago that when we use the Internet, whatever you do or write would be recorded in some far away place. There is no secrecy. Since the Government was using the Internet a lot, it was frightening to think that some foreign persons would know all our so-called confidential records and correspondence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10. Being naïve I suggested that we develop our own operating system. I think a lot of savvy Government staff tried hard but got nowhere. There apparently is no bypassing the Internet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
11. Then some started talking about Linux, about open source. This opened up a lot of mind-boggling use of the computer. Seems that everyone can develop software etc. etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
12. At that stage I gave up.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
13. Now you are telling me about the Global Open Source development Club. I do not think I am qualified to be a member.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
14. Still I appreciate the expertise and the knowledge that comes with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
15. I was in Korea a few days back and I was amazed at this one-time hermit nation which has made use of modern technology to achieve what I would call wonders which changed its image completely. Korea has the biggest percentage of people who are computer savvy. They have trained a huge member of IT engineers so that Samsung, a name we have only recently become familiar with is now technologically as advanced as Sony Corporation. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
16. Under the Look East policy we have a number of young Malaysians studying engineering in Korea. One of them had recently topped the class despite having to listen to lectures in Korean but read textbooks in English.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
17. Japan’s development was very fast but the Koreans are faster. Japan started its modernization during the Meiji Period more than 100 years ago. Korea started to modernize only after World War II. For the Koreans Japan is the benchmark. They want to hit the benchmark, even go beyond it to become the benchmark for the world. I think we can use Korea as a benchmark.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
18. I have always believed that we can do what others can do. When I asked the girl who topped the class, she had a simple answer for me. “Malaysia Boleh” she said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
19. So we can. We can do what the Koreans or the Japanese can do. All we need really is determination and the willingness to learn and do things repeatedly until we master them. If we fail the first time we must try again, and again and again. Believe me in the end you will succeed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
20. I may not be computer savvy but I believe the sum total of my knowledge today is far more than what it was before the Internet, Yahoo and Google.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
21. I bought an Encyclopedia Britannica computer disc. How silly. Yahoo and Google can give me more information than the Encyclopedias. And accessing the info is easier also. Truly nobody should plead ignorance about anything now as you can get to know things via the computer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
22. So my congratulation to the OSDC.my. Keep on enlarging your circle and all your knowledge and ideas for the open source. Malaysia cannot but benefit from it.</div>LinuxMalaysiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18425179854069464569noreply@blogger.com0Berjaya Times Square, 1 Jalan Imbi, Pudu, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia3.142499 101.7093593.1266439999999998 101.68961800000001 3.158354 101.7291tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5440222228053070129.post-29722726874525909742012-02-07T08:21:00.000-08:002012-02-07T08:21:16.793-08:00OSDC.my Links And Archive Websites, Blogs And Social Networks<div style="text-align: justify;">

SWOT Analysis Report➔ Strengths➔ Weaknesses➔ Opportunities➔ Threats➔ Recommendations 19<br /><br /><br /> 20. Strengths➔ Provide quality assurance of the ICT services provided by IT professionals➔ Raise level of professional standard among IT practitioners➔ Harness the growth of IT manpower and serve as repository for computing professionals➔ Enhance the countrys IT guideline and certifications towards world standards 20<br /><br /><br /> 21. Weaknesses➔ Adds new layer of bureaucracy which hampers national, industry and individual growth, and the implementation of the ETP➔ Kills spontaneity and stifles creativity and innovation of the open source developer community➔ Hinders individual contributions from OSS champions➔ Hinders the fulfilment of the OSS Master Plan objectives, namely: ● increase growth of OSS user and developer community ● increase growth of knowledge-based society➔ Reduce choice of IT vendors➔ Exemption of public sector IT professionals from the Bill defeats the purpose of the Bill 21<br /><br /><br /> 22. Weaknesses➔ Many areas of the proposed Bill are vague, e.g.: ● Definition of CNII projects ● The disciplines and specialisations under the BCPM registration/certification have not been defined ● No definition for certifications authorities➔ The implementation of the BCPM can be discretionary and subject to possible abuse➔ The proposed Bill provides the Board with legal protection, and not giving the computing practitioners legal recourse in case of wrongful charges.➔ Incurred cost of IT certifications will lead to the increased cost of end products, solutions and services. 22<br /><br /><br /><br /> 23. Opportunities➔ Increased number of certified OSS professionals➔ Increased number of OSS training centres including at university levels➔ Increased number of OSS products➔ OSCC as a contributor to university curriculum leading to certification➔ OSCC as one of the recognised certification body➔ All of the above can lead to greater use of OSS, more cost effective IT spending and increased human capital development 23<br /><br /><br /><br /> 24. Threats➔ Contravening the philosophy of Open Source which recognizes meritocracy as the main driver for excellence and quality, the Bill promotes the opposite by bestowing absolute power on the Board.➔ Can be detrimental to the growth of Open Source development and related products as the result of reduced contribution and hampered individual initiatives.➔ Reduced skill opportunities for IT development within the Open Source community results in shortage of IT skills and hampered human resource development.➔ Hampers the contribution of subject matter experts and input from business verticals to IT developments.➔ All the above factors contribute to the reduction of ICT growth at national levels➔ Increases the net import of ICT skills, reduces the self reliance, and hence leads to national vulnerability.➔ Limited number of certification bodies for Open Source as compared to the proprietary software leading to the growth the proprietary software usage and hence, increase the national spending. 24<br /><br /><br /> 25. Recommendations The Bill should be revised, taking into consideration the speed of technology advancement, speed of government service delivery and globalisation. A panel consisting of relevant representatives, including OSCC MAMPU and OSS community, is appointed to revise the Bill. Conduct study of countries which implement similar Bills and approach taken. Ensure the Bill addresses the weaknesses and threats to the implementation of the Malaysian Public Sector OSS Master Plan and the Economic Transformation Program 25 <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />LinuxMalaysiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18425179854069464569noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5440222228053070129.post-644509691274914222011-10-23T11:01:00.000-07:002011-10-23T11:01:05.834-07:00Linux Professional Institute Announces Academic Training Partners in Malaysia<br />

LPI Announces Academic Training Partners in Malaysia</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
(Sacramento, CA, USA: October 11, 2011) The Linux Professional Institute (LPI), the world's premier Linux certification organization (http://www.lpi.org), and its affiliate, LPI-Asia Pacific (http://www.lpi-apac.org/) announced new LPI-Approved Academic Partners in Malaysia: Faculty of Information Technology, Multimedia University (MMU) and the Advanced Medical and Dental Institute, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Malaysia has long been a leader in the adoption of Open Source technology within their public sector and LPI is pleased to be part of that effort. In particular, these two new LPI training partners from Malaysia's leading academic institutions is indicative of the efforts of our affiliate in the region, LPI-APAC, to reach out to that country's IT training organizations," said Jim Lacey, president and CEO of LPI. Mr. Lacey pointed out that LPI first announced a partnership program for Malaysia's IT training organizations in February (see: http://www.lpi.org/eng/about_lpi/what_s_new/lpi_develops_academic_program_in_malaysia)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ibrahim Yusof of the MMU noted that Faculty of Information Technology chose to align with the LPI certification program so as to ensure that their students had the highest level of technical skills possible: "Linux is an important tool for every IT or Engineering graduate. Linux is popular in Malaysia, especially with developers and system administrators. Therefore, if you are LPI certified as Linux-proficient, your career choices are that much wider."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
MMU is Malaysia's first private university and since 1997 has produced over 26,000 graduates. MMU is focused in the fields of Engineering, Information Technology, Business and Management, Creative Multimedia, Accounting, Law, Medical IT and Bio-Informatics. The Faculty of Information Technology (FIST) at Melaka (<a href="http://fist.mmu.edu.my/">http://fist.mmu.edu.my</a>) and the Faculty of Information Technology (FIT) at Cyberjaya (<a href="http://fit.mmu.edu.my/">http://fit.mmu.edu.my</a>) will be providing Linux training courses towards the LPI certification program.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) through the Advanced Medical and Dental Institute (AMDI: <a href="http://www.amdi.usm.edu.my/">http://www.amdi.usm.edu.my</a>/) also offers training programs towards all three levels of LPI certification (LPIC-1, LPIC-2 and LPIC-3). USM was established in 1969 and has offered courses at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels to approximately 20,000 students. Prof. Tan Sri Dato' Dzulkifli Abdul Razak, the Vice-Chancellor of USM noted the growing importance of Open Source Software in Malaysia as one of the reasons that the USM adopted an LPI training program: ""Open source means that anyone can and has the right to obtain access to the technology. It is not commodity-based and is not just accessible to those who can afford it. This means that we can share any technologies that have been developed for the people and everyone has the same rights to use the technology."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other LPI training partners in Malaysia include LPI Approved Training Parter (LPI-ATP) CBT-TECHNOLOGY.COM (<a href="http://www.cbt-technology.com/">http://www.cbt-technology.com/</a>) and LPI-ATP Asia Talk (<a href="http://www.asiatalk.com.my/">http://www.asiatalk.com.my</a>/).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Linux Professional Institute is globally supported by the IT industry, enterprise customers, community professionals, government entities and the educational community. LPI's certification program is supported by an affiliate network spanning five continents and is distributed worldwide in multiple languages at more than 7,000 testing locations. Since 1999, LPI has delivered over 290,000 exams and 95,000 LPIC certifications around the world.</div>
