Its no my main purpose to blog about Malaysia’s issue but everyday waking up reading the newspaper and the blogs that i always visit. I just cant seems to stop thinking how miserable life can be. How can we not be effected by our government policies? How can our country not being a third world country? How can we achieve our Wawasan 2020? How can we provide a better future for our childrens?

Lets talk about our dear PM. Like what Patrick Teoh said in his blog,

He is the same person who has a perfect track record for making things happen. In the opposite direction la.

No. I am not getting married. Boom! He gets married.
No. I will not dissolve Parliament. Boom! He dissolves Parliament the very next day.
No. There will be no fuel price increase (the first time last week). Boom! RM2.70 per litre the next day.

And now “No more hikes in fuel prices this year”.

Last time, everyday two or three days i can see robbery cases happens at my hometown. Now, everyday at least two robbery or snatch thief cases and alot of other issues happened. Its not safe even to park your car in your house cause it might get stolen, its not safe to go out late at night, its not even safe walking at the broad daylight on the streets.

What causes crime rate? What causes poverty rate? No no no..don’t tell us to change lifestyle while before this we cant barely survive with our salary and not to say those lower class than us.

Dont give us news like ;

Gov’t says US$150 oil could hit budget deficit
PM: We’ll do everything to ease rakyat’s burden
Change your lifestyle, gov’t told

We want action and the RM625 cash rebate given, how if i renew my roadtax on February? I also have to wait until next year. Not everyone is gaining the benefit of this cash rebates. Poor people dont have car, they are not given the benefit from this cash rebate. Rich people having 3-5 cars can claim for it while they already rich enough to support themselve. Why would they need the money for?

How about Petronas?

If my Dad owns a factory making biscuit, everyday it can manufacture about 100 boxes biscuit. Each cost RM5.00 with the selling price of RM10.00

The RM5.00 is my cost which included the fixed cost like materials and variable cost and also the staff salary.

IF i told my dad i want to buy 10 boxes of the biscuit to give my friend as present, how much would my dad charge me? It can be free, or my dad would of cause sell me at a cheaper price maybe at RM8.00? or RM6.00?

Why? Its easy, its my dad’s company and i should have the privilege of enjoying this benefits.

In Petronas case, its producing 600,000 barrels a day while 400,000 barrels is consume by the country then our government subsidies the price and sell to us. Our government subsidies our own oil? How funny could that be. My country producing oil, and the producer selling it back to my country at a market price , and then my country subsidies it and sells to me at a lower price making my country losing money. My government subsidies over 50 billions ringgit for us, the citizens. Where does the subsidies money come from? ALSO from us, the tax-payers. What kinda logic is that? Selling those extra 200,000 barrels already can earn them billions of ringgit a year.

Oklar, Oklar…EVEN IF i let Petronas do what it want, but what did it do to help the country in return?

Petronas Twin Tower?

Petronas Sponsered Formula One Car ?

Or Petronas Petrol Station?

Or we should be proud of having a “first astronaut” to space?

According to thestar, he was there to make this teh tarik! But after that it was clarify he wasnt go there to play traditional games and making teh tarik.

Oh well, i think we can spend millions of tax payers money to climb Everest, sail across the whole world and why cant we send an astronaut to the space?

Im not suprise to see a vote of No-Confidence by Sabah Progressive Party ( SAPP ) today, im not sure who will make a better government but im sure the first thing to tackle in our country is corruption and poverty.
