Ratings agencies and foreign fund managers have to take care of their own interests first. Have any of them been critical of Najib when he was PM. Why?

Fund managers and foreign investors won't give a damn when a country burns and its rakyat eats dirt so long they make their profits and get a good return in their investments. Like rats, they will abandon ship once the ship starts sinking. And as for rating agencies, just look at the US example and the good ratings that they gave to sub-prime loans at that time. Did the rating agencies warn about those loans or downgraded the banks and investment houses issuing them? No!, they were totally clueless about that, or if they knew, they just kept quiet because they were on eating from the same feeding trough.

Businessman Lee Kim Yew has high hopes for the month-old Pakatan Harapan government, and more so for an end to the country’s persistent “brain drain” problem.
Lee, who criticised the former BN administration in the lead-up to the 14th general election, shared how young Malaysians overseas had recently been telling him of their desire to return home to serve the country.
