Riding the J: Evaluating Malaysia

This post will be the follow up on the analysis of why Malaysia may not follow the path of Street Democracy 

My daily readings points me to another framework that may be applicable for us to view the situation.

In 2006 Political Scientist Ian Bremmer came out with the J Curve analysis

Bremmer's J Curve describes the relationship between a country's openness and its stability; focusing on the notion that while many countries are stable because they are open (the United States, France, Japan), others are stable because they are closed (North Korea, Cuba, Iraq under Saddam Hussein). According to Bremmer, a government's motivations differ dramatically depending on where they fall on the J curve

The x-axis of the political J-Curve graph measures the 'openness' (of freedom) of the State in question and the y-axis measures the stability of that same state. It suggests that those states that are 'closed'/undemocratic/unfree (such as the Communist dictatorships of China and Cuba) are very stable; however, as one progresses right, along the x-axis, it is evident that stability (for relatively short period of time in the lengthy life of nations) decreases, creating a dip in the graph, until beginning to pick up again as the 'openness' of a state increases; at the other end of the graph to closed states are the open states of the West, such as the United States of America or the United Kingdom. Thus, a J-shaped curve is formed.

States can travel both forward (right) and backwards (left) along this J-curve, and so stability and openness are never secure. The J is steeper on the left hand side, as it is easier for a leader in a failed state to create stability by closing the country than to build a civil society and establish accountable institutions; the curve is higher on the far right than left because states that prevail in opening their societies (Eastern Europe, for example) ultimately become more stable than authoritarian regimes.

Bremmer's entire curve can shift up or down depending on economic resources available to the government in question. So Saudi Arabia's relative stability at every point along the curve rises or falls depending on the price of oil; China's curve analogously depends on the country's economic growth. Source here

Street Democracy

Egypt's Hosni Mubarak resigned as president and handed control to the military today after 29 years in power, bowing to a historic 18-day wave of pro-democracy demonstrations by hundreds of thousands. "The people ousted the president," chanted a crowd of tens of thousands outside his presidential palace in Cairo.

Several hundred thousand protesters massed in Cairo's central Tahrir Square exploded into joy, cheering and waving Egyptian flags. Fireworks, car horns and celebratory shots in the air were heard around the city of 18 million in joy after Vice President Omar Suleiman made the announcement on national TV just after nightfall. more here

"Proof that Fedeler Opposition Can Diliver": Milika Mali Lagi Mau Bunyi

In the Penang chief minister’s Chinese New Year address today, he said that the ability of the four Pakatan Rakyat (PR) states to attract more than half of Malaysia’s total investment was proof that the federal opposition can deliver.

“Only a two-party system can ensure pece, harmony and that Malaysia’s rich natural resources benefit 27 million Malaysians,” the Bagan MP said, adding that this required an opposition which can not only deny Barisan Nasional (BN) its customary two-thirds majority in Parliament but also form federal government.

“For those who say that PR does not know how to govern, the four states of Penang, Selangor, Kedah and Kelantan have proven our ability by beating the other 10 BN states by attracting RM25 billion in investments, comprising 53 per cent of Malaysia’s total investments in 2010,” he said. More here
