朝日（Asahi）の投稿

[edit]

2017年2月16日朝日「私の視点」にAIIB（アジアインフラ投資銀行）に関する投稿をし、「日本には金融や環境など多くの分野の専門性があり、AIIBにはこうした知見が必要だ」「中国だけでなく、アジア各国が日本のAIIB参加を望んでいる」と書いている。日本のAIIB参加をけしかける内容だ。だが、Aziizさん以外にアジアの誰が日本のAIIB参加を望んだのか、証拠を出すべきではないか。AIIBは今、当初の期待とは別に融資や運営に行き詰まり、非民主主義・独裁国の中国主導による環境や人権を無視した融資基準などに疑問が出されている。その甘い融資基準で将来的に莫大な負債を抱えることも指摘されている。そこに日本が参加したら、負債の支払いなどで負担を強いられることになる。補填に使われるのは日本国民の税金だ。Aziizの主張は日本政府への内政干渉にならないのか？--110.66.194.85 (talk) 03:26, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Pangalau,

thank you for working on this article. I am posting this review along the 6 GA criteria. I believe this article still needs some significant work, especially on verifiability, coverage and writing of the lead section.

Writing

[edit]

Three minor points and one major (on the lead section):

  • Source 31 assesses Zeti as Asia's best central bank governor, which is not a title on its own and hence shouldn't be capitalised, in my opinion.
  • Why are there two paragraphs describing the awards? There seems to be no topical reason for doing so. If there is, better signalling would increase understanding.
  • Sources 12 and 13 deal with the same issue - Zeti chairing the BIS-ACC - but they are separated by a paragraph break. No particular reason for the layout, the entire section would probably benefit from some minor topical rearrangements, even if some sacrifices on the chronological order are necessary (i.e. mentioning her end of chairing the council, when stating she started doing it).
  • The lead section seems slightly too long, and contains way too much biographical detail (e.g. on early education).

Verifiability

[edit]

I have most of my problems here. Sources are not used properly and sometimes state factually wrong things. Some examples below:

  • Source 4 makes no claim about Zeti's mother being a "cultural figure".
  • Source 7 is a policy brief and contains no perceivable relevance for its use in the 'Early life' section.
  • Source 8 adds no value to the cited sentence.
  • Source 5 is incorrectly used. It states Zeti was a member of the BIS-CBGG since 2001, not its chair as said in the article.
  • Sources 17, 18, 19 are all used in a single sentence and are largely redundant. Consider pruning.

Coverage

[edit]

Two minor points and one major:

  • Title and supervisor of the PhD thesis would be useful.
  • Personal life is a one-sentence section. A nice addition would be whether Zeti is a member of the Malay royal family (since her father was a prince), if I understand correctly, or why she is not.
  • Coverage of policy stances and decisions throughout her time in office. Broadly listed in decreasing importance, not necessarily exhaustive: Great financial crisis, Malaysian decision to leave fixed exchange rate, Malaysian bond market regulation, asian financial crisis 1997 and aftermath (before her time as governor), generally her stance on financial stability, Malaysian current account surplus and sudden narrowing, etc. I assume your country-specific knowledge is better than mine, so finding additional cases should be possible, but I would expect at least some of these, and more detailed than the current case.

Neutrality

[edit]

This seems fine, except for two smaller issues:

  • The use of source 10 (royal consent for second term), implies a special elevated role, when it is in fact standard procedure. To my judgement it does not add much to the article, consider removing the sentence.
  • Source 11 makes a claim about Malaysia's resilience against the 2008 financial crisis, but it is a speech by Zeti at the BIS. Hence it lacks neutrality.

Stability

[edit]

Nothing to complain here.

Illustration

[edit]
  • This is okay. Picture 2 could be more integrated into the article. Currently stand-alone without context. More pictures, i.e from press conferences, if the licence permits, would be good.
    • The image caption has been expanded, but no further details on the meeting are available. I will keep searching for additional images, though I am not well-versed in Malaysian copyright-free sources. Pangalau (talk) 10:38, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Discussions

[edit]
  • @Pragmatic Puffin: I have made changes to the article in accordance with your recommendations. Pangalau (talk) 10:35, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for the adjustments and sorry for the delay. Below my assessment:
    All good for Stability and Illustration.
    Writing: Why was a footnote included for [b], it is not necessary and contains 2 unrelated pieces of information. Please fix this.
    Verifiability: Still problems here, please check your sources properly (this time for real)
    Coverage: The article is still thin on coverage of her policy stances and policy decisions beyond Islamic finance. This holds especially in terms of the capital controls in 1998, the change to floating exchange rates in 2005 and the prevention of a currency crisis in 2015.

    @Pragmatic Puffin: I have added further details to the coverage referenced and have organised sources 3 and 6, while removing source 20. Pangalau (talk) 05:06, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
