Who says we haven’t made progress? Times have changed. Even Astro Awani has provided ‘live coverage ‘of the Bersih rally on its YouTube channel. And the police guided the rally participants.

Malaysia has not learned anything after over 60 years of affirmative actions for the majority race…. Affirmative action was put in place … make a segment of the majority race filthy rich dynasties. The rest of them are just brain washed and led to live in mediocrity. Be honest about it. From the onset of Independence, we should have always placed meritocracy above all. Only then could we have attained similar status like Singapore and Indonesia. Religion should never have had a place in education, business, and progress. Today we have a workforce that is not competitive, education that stinks… Read more »
Soon indonesians … will overtake us and we will be sending domestic workers and plantation workers.
A recent study by the Malaysian authorities found that about two-thirds of Malaysians living and working in Singapore earn a gross salary of between S$1,500 and S$3,599.
And about three-quarters of them were skilled or semi-skilled, with the highest earner drawing a gross monthly salary of S$18,000.
Malaysian authorities flagged a “brain drain” as a concern for the nation, and urged a push to ensure Malaysians return to their homeland after work experience abroad.
After 65 years they are still insecure and scared of all kinds of shadow. The government should ban Malay horror movies in cinema.
Malaysian workforce must be willing to be re-skilled to remain relevant – think of new start-ups and be more innovative in search for newer and more cost-effective solutions. Instead of paying attention to the regressive politics played by politicians who are campaigning against bak kut teh and vernacular education, we should focus on exploiting our strengths in our diversity.

Amid today’s relentless pace of change and workplace transformation, what are the areas of growth in tomorrow’s economy? What career opportunities and upskilling priorities do these present for the workforce?
Answer: Green Economy, Digital Economy & Care Economy.

No char keow teow, one ton mee, hokkien mee. Only mee goreng, roti prata from mamak. NMs all doing professional jobs. Nowadays, the cooks are getting older and older. Young ones will graduated from utaR or TAR Uni colleges. Who wants to be the cook that spoil the soup?

Singaporean employers looking to hire roti canai, or roti prata, chefs have set their sights across the Causeway — and it seems like they are willing to pay to bring home the dough.
An ad for a roti canai maker was placed in the New Straits Times (NST) on Monday (April 22), offering a salary of RM5,000 (S$1,425) for that position. It also stated that a prayer room, accommodation and meals will be provided.

Why is having another casino in Forest City considered a negative? If so, Anwar should ask Genting to close their casino.
This government should just follow Singapore on how to run casinos.
The Muslims are not allowed entry, the locals have to pay a large entry fee, the Singaporeans will come and the government will get a hefty income from the taxes paid.
So what is the issue?
Singapore rich and we pokia. where the billions gone? never mind, apa malu can get pardon afterall, belief and prayer is more important
Singapore is raising the salary threshold for foreigners to get a work permit amid stiff local competition for jobs.
Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower announced that new applicants for the Employment Pass (EP) system will have to earn at least S$5,600 per month, up from S$5,000.

3R is secured by King, Armed Forces, Police, GLCs etc so no need to worry and defend.
Boycott of politicians who fan racial and religious hatred will not work in this country. The people in general will still vote according to race and religion.
The majority of the people see things through racial and religious lens due to indoctrination that started more than 50 years ago.
Now they use boycotting to counter their fear? How to progress?
Lots of Phobia.
With NEP 60 years still scared of lots of things.
Should think if they are manipulated by their political master?
Malaysia has lost around RM277 bil (based on the country’s cumulative gross domestic product from 2018 to 2023) to corruption over the past five years, said Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki.

It’s very sad our malay countrymen are not able to have a worldwide view and focus on chest thumping against a weak and frightened minority. It feels good yes..but our real competitors waiting to take over our rice bowls are the many economically strong countries around us. They fail to see the real danger of Malaysia being obsolete and enjoy stepping on a productive minority that all they want is to live peacefully and make a living through hardwork and risk taking.

Singapore will spend another S$1 billion over the next decade to make neighbourhoods safer and more convenient for walking and commuting. This includes making infrastructure more suitable for young families and the elderly.
https://youtube.com/watch?si=-UAckamwV_sBDAhv&v=EEPFQmdhTz8&feature=youtu.be
Penang can do likewise?
Singapore is more towards looking after the well being of their Rakyat by coming up with innovative ideas which are practical and needed.
Penang is mostly about ego boosting Mega projects even though they have no or very little funds for it. They most times talk without thinking ahead.
Just look at the recent Gurney wharf project, so many complains on its construction standards. Isn’t it the same with the many housing projects that have cracks and water leakages, etc etc etc.
How can Penang have money when the country dont have the money unless Penang kia low donate from 1MDB? Penang can build one with Sing can build 3.5 times. Now you praise red dot but in the past dispise.
Singapore willing to fork out millions to let Taylor Swift performs only in Singapore. They have all the facilities ready because few years ago they had hosted the youth Olympics. They are master in hosting and by hosting the Commonwealth it will enable them to show to the world that they are ready for Asian Games as well as Olympics game.
Meanwhile in Malaysia, just sit and watch as the world goes by. We can sulk about Palestine as much as we want but no one is going to take us seriously.
Where is ke-tuan and boleh which has been shouting?
It makes quite a difference don’t it? This reference to 1st world and 3rd world, both in deeds and in spoken words, in economy, in currency and in living standards, etc etc etc.
Local councils in Penang state still using tons of black, blue and green colored plastic bags to collect rubbish swept from roadsides, playgrounds, etc.
They seem to have no idea how to collect these dry rubbish without using plastics. Like this, how to improve, think and move forward. Cannot, lah.
Here is one politician who meant business, very serious and takes it personal.

Obsession with car ownership, but please do not deprive us LRT.
Don’t just blame local council. They built cycle lanes. How many people using it to cycle? How they go to school, to work etc
If the city is dirty and garbage not properly collected and covered with flies around, they goes into your one ton mee,

When Malaysia came hard on foreign concerts, Singapore benefits. Can expect future mega concerts to bypass Malaysia and we have to pay SingDollar to attend in Singapore like the Swifties.
Thai authorities made noise because Taylor Swift bypassed Bangkok, but Spore approached Taylor entourage during the time Thailand has no clear prime minister. So why complain?
Another reason – ” The unique strategy – which I cannot resist calling “Kiasunomics” – included paying her not to entertain the idea of adding the neighbouring cities of Jakarta, Bangkok and Manila* to her Eras Tour. (*Let’s face it, there was little chance she was ever going to perform here.)”

Kiasu is better than Kiasi!
Malaysians are very scared of all sorts of fear factor. Must learn to take calculated risks to be successful!
It is more than fear. It is also hypocrisy, hatred, patriarchy, subversion of democracy through dogma, and rampant oligarchy. It is very unlikely that we will learn anything from our neighbour. As someone joked earlier, the entire government can be privatised. But we know very well how anything, that is even obviously beneficial, can be sabotaged as a “sensitive” issue.
Talking about an entire government can be privatized, reminds me about the Pangkor Treaty in 1874 that got the ball rolling to the eventual take over of our administration back then till 1957.

Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, “Long live all the magic we made”
And bring on all the pretenders, I’m not afraid

Watched the concert in Singapore.
Took a Scoot flight from Penang to Changi (Jewel!), stayed 4 nights in Singapore for the concert. Spent a total of RM9K for the trip contributing to Singapore economy.
Worth every cent? 9k can see few hundred or thousand years old ancient China and food in 14 days visa free.
Good lyrics.

Bersih is actually making this protest in an effort to stay relevant. Where was Bersih during the Abah and Sabri time? Where was Bersih when Bossku was given 50% discount in jail time?
Where are you when TP was called up for national service and a teh tarik session with the Polisis?
Who is TP?
Your message is not clear and has ambiguities trying to avoid prosecution?
Be brave and open with your criticism.
Since 2018, he has been commenting like this. At first, thought he was doing it on purpose. But actually he has a poor command of the language and poor in reading and understanding the comments. His mind skips a step or two when reading the readers comments hence sometimes he gives wrong or twisted or distorted replies. And you are also right about him being ambiguous, trying to avoid prosecution in some of his comments.
Rakyat, you are better. you did not express yourself and you cut and paste.
Why have to give full name? TP is good enough as after he gave his comment, nation wide flash news. DUMNO kbkb follow by national service call up with teh tarik session
Who is TP?
Cannot keep us in suspense!
Reveal the person please!
He, he. Maniam so curious.
The fella shriek must be talking about a politician. The abbreviation TP could mean Tony Pua. National service could mean spending time with the cops and Teh tarik could be interrogation.
Clue – Kumaran said, ” Where was Bersih when Bossku was given 50% discount in jail time?”

His ambiguousness in his comments can be confusing when reading his replies.
Rakyat 8, that is what you always quote – Go and figure out – otherwise who is clueless?

When was the idea first mooted? Way before 2018? What year is it now? 2024?
When will they begin? The idea of PIA expansion is still floating in the air, have not landed on the ground yet.
Maybe, next year they will say a little bit more and the year after that, a bit more.
Then nearing General Election 16, a whole lot more, after GE16, then repeat.
Rakyat 8, now you want development. You want airport expansion with all the jet noise and pollution over the city? Development you kbkb. No development you kbkb? Ask to relocate airport to ke dah, quiet?
Uncle Rakyat 8 says, Haiya, why so blur blur. Uncle Rakyat 8 did not say development. PIA already develop but not enough capacity, so need to do some expansion, bit bit here and bit bit there, not all of Penang island.
So, where got noise n pollution all over city. Silly to say that,
isn’t it,? Haiya !
Uncle Rakyat 8 says, you go n ask state to relocate PIA to Kedah. See if state want to ban you from coming to Penang or not.
Clueless as always!
Any big contract is welcome. Preferrably more than RM100 million. Direct nego available.

Annie Ooi is a familiar face at most major rallies, came to represent the voice of ordinary Malaysian citizens in speaking up against injustice.
RIP.
Shriek can be Uncle Bersih?
Why not since he is full of ideals.
I would have been able to understand the Muslim’s reactions perfectly if the actions of KK Mart was deliberate. But it was not . As mentioned , very likely nobody checked the consignment thoroughly before sending them out to the various outlets. Since they have apologised , we should accept it with an open heart and move on. If any crime or offence was committed, let the relevant authorities look into it. There is no room for vigilantism here.
Yes, and only 5 socks among 18 thousand. How come? Was there a whole lot of consignment manufactured? If yes, who ordered and where did all go, to which company, in which country? Or was is it for the manufacturer’s own country’s consumption?
And before the authorities can get to the bottom of it, some eager politicians using 2R want to conduct a major boycott urging the majority group to support.
How are all this going to effect the 350 billion plus FI MOUs, negatively?
When they check, they only count. The invisible needs we to protect or defend the invisible? Rakyat 8 not comment or bring out?
Vernacular school row: Ramasamy hits out at UMNO Youth chief as “confused, childish and immature” By Prof Ramasamy Palanisamy dd 2 hours ago

========
Yes, politicians cannot have thinking and educated Rakyat. Because politicians often struggle to engage with a thinking and educated populace.
When faced with probing questions from the electorate, many politicians find it difficult to provide satisfactory answers. This dynamic has been observed by the Rakyat for decades.
Rakyat, you think only politicians only? You are just as clueless. Even professionals like PHD Teo KS from National Uni talk about vernacular schools. Clueless and agrees with him?
Electorate dont probe questions as you many many times said they are clueless. You are contradicting yourself. The other side of electorate are tickle and excited about them raising the 2Rs and vote for him
Our Electorates or Rakyat are not clueless. In fact, they are becoming more and more smarter. They have also become more together regardless of who they are. This actually scares most of the 2R politicians. So, these politicians are now working overtime on their favorite subject.
Clueless supporters and followers are those who are supporting these 2R type of politicians and those self interest political parties who advocate and follow the ” toe the party line and party policies.”

You think so simple to create the ecosystem?
Do we have the competency and know how?
Our education system does not promote creative thinking. Good graduates are now in Singapore where meritocracy is practised.
When you say “you think so…,” it suggests that I am proposing to create ecosystems, which I did not intend to, as it is a natural part of the creative system.
I am mentioning ecosystems in a cynical manner, echoing the words of political leaders. As for ‘R&D?”, it is simply a question mark for me, and I am unsure of what that question means to you.
Innovation and inventions rely on research and development, so it is essential to have a strong R&D foundation.
Malaysian students shun science education because difficult to study. Many study business and arts, end up as jobless graduates as the industry do not need them!
Why study science? When join Gomen, they work under those graduated in religious study.

Malaysia’s talent exodus has not reached a dire level yet, but if left unchecked, could eventually hamper its economic growth and development.
One country’s loss is another country’s gain. Clearly, Singapore and other foreign countries are benefiting from this brain drain. Reason why we are still stagnant or moving forward slower than a snail’s pace.
This, just one among many other reasons.

you think only them? Others orso have the same feeling and they are forced. Otherwise starved like gaza?
Has it reached a dire level? Look at the growth of (a) foreign debt of the government (b) non-principal payments in all forms as a percentage of budget.
If one does a simulation with all the available data past and present and get to see the ‘trajectory’ of its outcome, one will get an idea of when it will reach the dire level, if they continue with the present trend.
Are they smart and brave enough to arrest it, starting ‘yesterday’? There is a saying, “Sendiri buat Sendiri Tanggung” lah or “Berani Berbuat, Berani Bertanggung Jawab “. Do not point the fingers at us Rakyat. Maybe can at their clueless supporters.
Why you want to hurt their feelings? It is always boleh

Only in Malaysia, and, no less under the Madani Government: where in the world of entrepreneurship where the government plays the central role in just about every key aspects of it?
It is definitely wrong to call this entrepreneurship. But it is deliberately used to deceive the public and hide the matter, which is handout.
Worse than the NEP started in the 1970s.
Bottom line, all because of wanting to sustain their position as a ruling government. The interest of our Nation and the well being of our Rakyat are all in words, speeches or statements only.
