高教宏图：马华公会与马来西亚高等教育 从最初四处流动以租借课室开始办学的数百人小型学院，如今发展成在籍生总人数近5万人的两所高等教育姐妹校，成为了马来西亚高教领域中的两座高峰；这一发展变迁无疑是当初的创办人所始料未及的。在回顾与前瞻之间，可以确定的是，马华公会推动创办了两所拉曼高校，绝对无愧于国父东姑阿都拉曼之盛名，亦有功于华社，更有益于马来西亚高等教育发展。 本书主要分为拉曼理工大学和拉曼大学两个部分，广泛采用两所拉曼高校和马华公会历年来的会议文件、报告书和特刊资料，以及马华公会网上资料中心剪报和新加坡国家图书馆管理局的线上报纸档案，以编年方式运用第一手资料呈现马华公会参与马来西亚高等教育建设与发展的历史图景。

提起“性别”议题，你会想到什么？很多人总会想到女性、女权。但其实，性别议题不分男女，我们都在充满性别定义的环境中成长。 我们很可能既是性别偏见的受害者，也是性别标签的加害者。为何男主外女主内？为何男人有泪不轻弹？为何女厕总是大排长龙？为何女议员教女性撒娇？ 全书七成文章以性别议题为主题，从政府、政策、政党、社会、家庭等不同角度，戳破无所不在的性别刻板印象。其余文章包括社会、教育、人民素养、政治道德等。所有作品皆曾在《东方日报》专栏《梁知良能》刊登。

世界将在2024年迎来全新的天时, 全人类正式从八运步入九运。天时, 就好比牛郎织女短暂的相会而产生的磁场火花。古人通过观星, 发现土星与木星每隔二十年都会在同一条直线上相会。当两星离开时, 地球往往会发生较重大的异常变化。届时, 小至人类的行为, 大至行业趋势、国家文明、自然规律等, 都会出现颠覆性的演变。 拿督郑博见认为, 新冠疫情的世界性肆虐，正是九运的预告和警戒。在大家尚未完全适应新常态时，九运能量就来势汹汹，涉及的范围可说得上是铺天盖地, 没有人能幸免。九运在八卦中为离卦, 属火; 火代表着科技大爆发, 不管是人工智能、网络3.0、量子技术、生物科学、教育科技等,未来进度将是神速的。此外,火的中心是虚的,也代表着由区块链主导的虚拟崛起, 世界经济因而动荡, 因而改写。
