Not again...Malaysia's future?

Malaysia Ringgit

Economists known Southeast Asia as the "emerging tigers" where many of the countries in ASEAN play role in the global economy growth.

From what I can conclude after Asian economy crisis in 1998, sub-industrial ASEAN countries like Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore have recovered and regain back their economy's stability around 2001-2003. Market shares started to be a bit stable during 2001/2003-2005.

Lets talk about what have happened in 2008 (now)...

At the midth of 2008, (which around June-July) there was a dramatical hike in world's fuel price. From what I remember here, the world's fuel price did once rise up to USD 141 from it USD 96 per galloon.

To an oil & gas's exporter country like Malaysia, there should be a good news though since the country's wealth would increase in the same time due to the worldwide's market prices and demand on fossil fuels. The prices of rubber and its synthetic products were too rise.


Awkward/strange things have happened, instead of celebrating this good news/share the extra wealth and fortunate gained by the country...the gov't was making some announcements to the public which they increased the prices of local fuel to RM 2.79 (correct me if im wrong, couldnt really remember the exact price). The increment was actually 40percent from its original's price. The shocking part= the gov't activated that act in 24hr time.

Due to the sudden increment of fossil fuel's prices to Malaysians, all of the Malaysians were suffered; in the border of life and death where the prices of public transport, taxes, electric supply/(bills),foods, groceries, gadgets and others were too hike up to their price's top.

An industrialized country like Malaysia, we have our own biotech-factories, rubber plantation, oil palm plantation, IT-producers, electronic industries, food/tin-cans processed factories and others... All of these are now in their good market time. Malaysia's govt ask taxes from them and increase the annual taxes pay for those success/earn alots. So, this is very obvious and clear that the gov't of Malaysia is in his good time. Our country have extra and good wealth base then, agree?

I was wondering on the gov't action where they wanted to increase the local fuel's price and cancelled some subsidities of the people. Our country is now on his good time, why our people cant enjoy the wealth earn/make by our country? why only those people with "granted"-title as well as special "positions" in our adminstration can enjoy all the goodies we have in the country but not typical citizen like us?

Beside that, why our currency keep sinking drastically? Aren't good economy bring good market value for our currency? Our Malaysia Ringgit is not monopoly notes...
We want a stable currency rate of our Malaysia Ringgit.
Ministry of Finance and the JPN (please wake up!), dont make Ringgit become valueless/worthless!!! This isnt good for investors and businessmen in our country especially those whom business are deal with global market for example car-selling agent.

Before 1998, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei were actually have the same currency exchange rate.
Due to the political strike (by Mr.wanna be/Anwar Ibrahim) accompanied with Asian economy crisis in 1998, Malaysia's economy have suffered its dark age. The ringgit become 3x "value-less" compared with B$ and S$. Our currency were fluctuating between 3.80 and 4.40 to the dollar during that time.


I still remember the time of T.D Mahathir where he introduced the "currency control policy" in 1998 to stabilize the ringgit. Else today, our currency rate might be worsen that what it was during 1998 (since Pak Lah like to sink the ringgit).



Bersih, Amanah, Cekap...
Anti-corruption campaignes have make all around Malaysia gov't sectors by the CLEVER leader (*current PM). But what actually happened, his own son in laws and his family members are the one practise corruptions/cronyism in malaysia (according to the media/rumours). Some people found out that his son in laws Khairy Jamaluddin (if im not mistaken, his name) sold our gov't owned company to a private company/organization called Tumasek of Singapore.
Wow! NICE act right?

Can others follow this act? Ofcourse not...because we dont have such special "rights" and a firm supporter like Pak Lah.

Pak Lah cancelled the construction of bridge/causeway between Johore and Singapore and the Mega Project which planned by our former PM to develop our country toward its vision on Wawasan 2020. Pak Lah gave the accused of "our country doesnt afford" to build and have the base to continue the flow plan in Mega project... What a nice reason he has, perhaps the country's wealth have already go inside his/family pockets.
No development for Malaysia in Pak Lah's time,
even the astronaunt/sending malaysia's first astronaunt to outer space was actually under one of our former PM's plan. So, Pak Lah what have u done so far? Any out-breaking achievement?
The services of gov't sectors even hospital become low and poor.
The life of bumi-putra too, got no improvement.
More crimes, more corruptions, more 'dramas" have presented by our Malaysian Politicians...
what will be the next then???

Anyway, all of that have already become a past-history for Malaysia.
Now I'm very concerning about the 916.
Mr. WB (wanna be aka Anwar Ibrahim) is keen and has the confidence to pull Pak Lah down from his sit in 916. He says he is going to change the sky of Malaysia...wow! ironic right?amazing!!! *should i salute u??? (-.-). 30 lawmakers more, then he can form a new gov't adminstration.

haix...
actually he didnt able to go back into the parliament hall...with the aid of 3 complex oppositions, he has enough votes/supports to be back into there. (sound so unfair right? 3 combitions of major oppositions parties' voters Vs. BN)

I think what Anwar Ibrahim dream for long might come true soon (*eventhough I dont really like/hope he can), but beside than him..whom will rule malaysia? BN?ofcourse not, corruptions from them have already enough.

Let me think the negative side first,
If Anwar Ibrahim really becomes our PM in 916, im sure many problems and protest will happened. (*like what happened in Thai now) We all have to realize those foxes in BN arent weak and dumb.
Plus, I dont think mr.Lim will satify with his position as a deputy of Anwar...You know, chinese... (haha im not trying to gossip abt my own race,but..its the truth)
If im Mr.Lim, instead of aiming to be Anwar's deputy (only if he manage to be the PM, I hope there will be a miracle though...Who know the god give us a good neutral leader whom doesnt come from both National front and opposition parties to become our leader right? May god bless us) why dont aim for become the superior?

Barack Obama is now the candicacy of US election, see...even a black get support from those white in US, why cant Malaysia be open minded abit? Multi-racial country right? Show the "fairness" that you mean by Multi-racial country.
always stick with "ketuanan melayu's thinking" to Malaysia admintration, I dont think will be good to Malaysia.

Maybe some of you might not agree with me and think im trying to support my own race, but what actually I want to interpret here is just my view where A fair leader with no-racist attitude, a multi-racial heart of democratic and anti-cronyism can be found in our country.

For me, I dont have any specific race/religion for the ideal leader whom I think can rule us as to be our PM.
I'm more concern and care about hows he develop malaysia and bring us toward 2020.
A leader who can bring a bright future, good economy and solve the poverty/unequality between west/east Malaysia and the bumi-putra....= the best leader. Ofcourse he shouldnt be a greedy person and money-face. He should be a person who really care about all Malaysians and have the heart of bringing Malaysia to success.
