look at current korean conflict resolved under new south korea president, Moon Jae-in thru diplomacy and trust. No one will ever imagine that North +South Korea can achive peace, unity. South korea president should be world role model in creating peace, harmony. Can our Dr M achieve such amazing feat?

divisive leadership will destroy our nation eventually. we need a leader who is integrasive and cohesive with all nations

malaysia is formed in 16Sept1963. after 55 years of the formation, new govt. said TUNGGU SEKEJAP for MA63 cannot mei?? wakaka

Yaloe. you're right. Frog culture during BN is unethical. under new govt. Frogs in Sabah politics suddenly alright. wakaka

sabah state govt. should give more incentives to develop downstream in Sabah. Ban all export of resources. FYI, Sabah export logging to vietnam if i'm not wrong causing Vietnam one of world largest furniture exporter when Vietnam got no timber resources. dont you think this is funny way of sabah's management??

why other places like muar, melaka have booming furniture industry eventhough got no logging, timber resources? why Sabah with logging instead no such downstream industry? this is obviously poor state economy management? why Sabah got oil but no petrochemical ind? whereas Johor got none but got RAPID??? many examples of misallocation of resources. no wonder sabahan feel pissed off due to unfairness treatment

Dr M's idea on auto ind. to reduce Sabahan's cost of living does not hold water. Sabah is under developed despite of many resources. why????

Great article....

china will teach US a lesson. I/o buying US BOEING aircrafts, they can support AIRBUS France. US is looking for death in return. there are many alternatives in life, and business

Regarding ECRL, this project's cancellation personally support Dr M when many dont agree. many china projects cancelled to save billions of cost, i've to strongly agree with Dr M to improve our nation's fiscal deficit. i know many dont agree on these cancellation

Putting aside 1mdb, to be frank Najib's idea on digital economy is much better than Dr M's potong 3.0. if not due to 1mDB, many ideas of najib are more future oriented. this is bipartisan point of view

current problem is with partisan politics. many ministers appointed not due to talents but partisan from Bersatu. we should learn from former US president, very open minded Obama who draw talents from both democrates, and opposition repbulican to serve as MP during his term. Dr M version 2.0 is doing more damage, than last 20 years.

we reap what we sow since we vote very good new govt. wakaka

Since time is essence, we already lose 61 years to outperform. we've to call a spade a spade. Look at the current education state and the new minister. why all still silent, sing praise of new govt's mediocrity?

Due to late GST refund-almost 1 year already- how many company can survive with casf flow unresolved due to custom HUTANG us now. if company late, penalty by custom. if custom late refund, can we penalty them? wakaka

The Primary Industries Ministry is preparing a paper on the country’s B10 Biodiesel programme to be tabled in the Cabinet by year-end.

Its minister, Teresa Kok, said the biodiesel programme would be able to help oil palm smallholders address falling palm oil prices.

“The government cannot afford the subsidies (for the smallholders) and one way to increase the use of palm oil is through the biodiesel programme.

“In Indonesia, palm-based fuel programmes have managed to help smallholders there. Therefore, I feel that Malaysia can take the same approach,” she told reporters after a discussion with agribusiness firm Wilmar Trading Pte Ltd in Putrajaya today.

B10 Biodiesel is produced from a mix of 10 percent esters methyl palm oil and 90 percent diesel.

if new malaysia reluctant to bite this bullet due to concern on 1.6million civil servants' backlash...read below huge implication...
EU PENSION fund for Euro MPs is almost bankrupt and will have to be bailed out by taxpayers, it has been revealed. Germany's biggest newspaper Bild reported it has seen paperwork indicating a shortfall of millions of euros which means the pension fund will collapse by 2026 at the latest.

It cited an internal opinion of the Secretary-General of the European Parliament, Klaus Welle, for the Committee on Budgetary Regulation.

The endangered fund closed to new members in 2009 and, by the end of 2016, held assets worth €146.4 million.

But by then the fund's liabilities - the outstanding pension entitlements of the lawmakers - already stood at a staggering €472.6 million.

serious reform in civil servants' pensioners are required before this time bomb explode one day

PETALING JAYA: Civil servants may have to contribute to their own retirement income in the future, the head of the agency which has taken over the government’s pension operation said recently.

In an interview with TheSun, Retirement Fund Inc (KWAP) CEO Wan Kamaruzaman Wan Ahmad said it could be similar to how private sector employees contribute to the Employees Provident Fund (EPF).

“For all you know they (the government) may decide that this (current) scheme is unsustainable, we may move to the EPF (type) scheme,” Wan Kamaruzaman was quoted as saying.

The current pension scheme for civil servants is called “defined benefit”, wherein only the government and other employers of civil servants, such as statutory bodies and local authorities, will contribute.


With this scheme, pensioners are assured half their last drawn salary for life after they retire at age 60. A spouse will receive the same in the event of a pensioner’s death.

Wan Kamaruzaman said the EPF-style contribution scheme, called “defined contribution” may also enable the government to gradually reduce its burden of the ever-growing pension liabilities. The current scheme sees the government placed with a liability amounting to some RM300 billion.

“Let’s say in future, five years down the road, new civil servants will be on defined contribution, so KWAP will be managing both a defined benefit and a defined contribution scheme, that is how I see it go. Because this is just too good to last,” Wan Kamaruzaman said, according to the local English daily.

It was previously reported that Prime Minister Najib Razak had also acknowledged that the current scheme is not sustainable for the long term, thereby suggesting that an alternative scheme may be in the works.

“With the current civil service strength numbering 1.6 million, moving to a ‘defined contribution’ model will take strong political will,” Kamaruzaman said.

KWAP runs the entire pension operations for the government and all other employers of civil servants, after having absorbed the entire public pension department that had previously been under the Public Services Department. All 250 employees of the department are now based at KWAP’s office in Cyberjaya.

Since November 2015, the company has also taken over from the government’s monthly operation of paying out pensions to the 700,000 retirees. This was made possible following an amendment made to the Retirement Fund Act 2007 early last year.

However, the funds for such disbursement still come from the government, while KWAP is paid an administration fee.

All GLC monopoly, oligopoly in many ind. must be privatised, sold to settle govt. debts. Govt. must doing policy making by provide fair playing field, and to avoid conflict on interest. Put all professionals, not politicians in body like EPF, PNB.

This time govt. will say EPF compulsory gradual withdrawal at 55 yrs old. No more alltogether since no money liao

So, this time can we say China's own 5G technology, or copyright infringment allegation as what US always try to portray?

Post removed.Why?

dear Stockraider, I guess govt. feel other races's sacrifice is not enough. Be ready for apartheid version 2.0 squeese till no blood. What if govt. impose tax on shares and inheritance assets? will you all accept it?

100% cash also won't stay away from danger due to high inflation-MYR becomes smaller day by day. i still stay 100% stock market despite of worldwide external financial disruption, disturbance. How to read achieve Zen Buddha calmly amid all the distraction in life??

delivery, result-oriented is what we want. NATO-non action talk only with rethoric means nothing. we want more revolutionary moves to move nation forward. PH is far from proving anything so far. I guess takes 61 years to prove something since we give BN this duration, right? Forgive and forget PH about New malaysia vision. i dont put any harapan they are able to pull through anyway. wakaka

It's too late to realise it now. Thailand and Vietnam has bypass us as most competitive mfg base now. We rely too much on foreign workers as MY majority too pampered. National productivity drop due to never ending affirmative action, TONGKAT ALI culture. I'm surprised when govt. intend to maintain this pro bumiputra policy

sacrifice means 1.6million civil servants head counts must be chopped off. over myr100billion cost to maintain public opr. expenditure. this is CRAZY

MY biggest problem is not race, or nationality. Socioeconomy gap become larger whereby rich elites-irregardless of races- live luxurius lifestyle completely beyond normal citizens dream. New govt. always talk about concerns on the average common folks but fail to protect welfare or meet small promise of min salary myr1500. Good govt. must able to close the income gap btn the rich elites and poor salaryman irregardless of race. Not all chinese are born rich. Majority struggle in everyday life. So, pls stop treat chinese as bogeyman in each time economy woes.

The reality is that urban sprawl is no longer just a land-based problem,” she wrote in an article for The Conversation. “Developments are spreading out into the oceans, creating tangles of structures beneath the water’s surface.” This causes havoc for marine organisms and their habitats, destroying the coral reefs that nourish fisheries and protect the coastline from the harsher impact of the waves, and destablising many precious coastal ecosystems such as salt flats and mangroves.

Building on dredged sediments also has risks for inhabitants, as this strata isn’t as stable as hard bedrock on land. There have been reports that Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah archipelago is actually sinking. Reclaimed land is also a risk in earthquake-prone areas. The prolonged shaking can trigger a process called liquefaction, where the once-solid sediments of reclaimed areas can liquefy. This was a significant contributor to the devastation of the huge San Francisco earthquake of 1906.

all his ideas are out-dated, obsolete. we really need in PM who is technologist, keep on track of IOT, AI, robotics, super computer, nanotechnology, green, biotech, etc. to bring forward Malaysia. Waste too much time focus on politics i/o nation building. really fed with the new govt.
