Malaysia akan bangun dari tidur. Kerajaan bangkitkan masalah-masalah dan mencari penyelesaian. Dalam 10 tahun lagi, TRX akan beropeasi penuh, RTS akan beroperasi penuh, Data Centres jadi nadi pembangunan di JB, Bandar Malaysia dan HSR akan hidup semula. Ini lah harapan kami semua........

Singapore is a city nation. It is a destiny planned. JB is a border town of Malaysia that depends on state resources and limited in that. You can't have "talent creation" if the federal government does not get involved in managing the social development of the state economy and also fiscal incentives for workers to remain in JB instead of moving across the border. Asking Johor to "rise up" is rhetoric. What is needed is for the federal government to make itself a major stakeholder in raising the GDP of Johor and implementing real fiscal incentives to RETAIN talent (and not "create') what is from the country. Stop the brain drain, in short. And get the most able to lead MIDA and other stakeholder agencies to make the impossible happen.
