The Srebrenica War Memorial not only serves as a commemorative focal point for the Bosniak genocide and the final resting place for many of its victims, but also as a damning indictment of man's inhumanity to man.

Radko Mladic - the infamous, unrepentant Butcher of Bosnia.
UPDATE:

"The UN court upheld the life sentence for his role in the killing of around 8,000 Bosnian Muslim (Bosniak) men and boys in Srebrenica in 1995."

bbc.co.uk/news/world-eur…
"The massacre, in an enclave supposed to be under UN protection, was the worst atrocity in Europe since World War Two."
"Mladic, known as the "Butcher of Bosnia", was one of the last suspects to face trial at the UN's International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. He was arrested in 2011 after 16 years on the run."

The Malaysian government's failure to curtail the most recent CoVid-19 outbreak, further exacerbated by a sluggish vaccination program, has put our national health services under a tremendous amount of strain, reports @NileBowie .

"Malaysia’s health crisis is taking a turn for the worst as new Covid-19 cases rise exponentially, a viral surge that as a percentage of the population is now higher than India’s daily infection rate."

"The cancellation by UTM said to be the recommendation of their 'Islamic Center' poses serious questions on the role of the university as a place to enlighten minds or a place to condition knowledge based on a narrow perspective of religious tolerance."
"One of the important aspects of nation-building that is lacking in this country is the sharing and appreciation of other cultures like those of the Kadazan, Murut, Dayak, Iban and Orang Asli."

"Malaysia’s claims that 16 Chinese aircraft came close to violating its sovereign airspace last week in a rare incident which Foreign Minister Hishammuddin Hussein condemned as an “intrusion” has been given tacit backing by the US Pacific Air Forces."
The major command of the United States Air Force also expressed support for the Royal Malaysian Air Force, which scrambled jets on May 31 to visually confirm the Chinese planes that were detected within 60 nautical miles of the eastern Malaysian state of Sarawak, (cont'd below)

"Stop using the emergency to cripple the progression of the Sexual Harassment Bill that was birthed by Harapan, to be tabled in Parliament. Prioritise it. Reach out to us. Speak to members of civil society who have been advocating this for decades." @PattoKasthuri
"In the recent furore surrounding the courageous exposé by teenage trailblazer Ain Husniza Saiful Nizam of rape culture sparked by her teacher, many students in institutions of higher learning have also taken to social media (cont'd below)
to share their experiences being sexually harassed and to reach out to other survivors at the hands of their lecturers and even security guards at their varsities."
