“The government’s debt is currently at RM1.5 trillion, including contingent liability, but the actual debt is at RM1.2 trillion, which is about 61% of GDP," he told reporters after the signing ceremony of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Malaysian Small Entrepreneurs Chamber of Commerce and Uniti Asia Group of Business here on Thursday (Jan 26).

I think this debts are not enough lah.
Better borrow more to spend. Make us all in Bursa prosper lah.
The government’s debt is currently at RM1.5 trillion, can increase to Rm2.0 to 3.0 trillion. Small matter lah. Our grandchildren can pay. No worries, be happy.

Debt is never good!
It is like living like a parasite; sucking other's people's blood and sweat without guilt.
Malaysia is blessed with innumerable natural resource which was plundered without any meaningful result for the people but benefitting the treacherous robbers.
Debt to GDP should not exist!
