First of all in some of the posters Manogaran was showing his fist.
Mahu pukul orang ke?
The Pakatan won the General Elections because of THREE factors :
1. the intense hatred against Najib and Rosmah
2. Tun Dr Mahathir's unifying role
3. the Malay vote was split
Now the intense hatred against Najib and Rosmah seems to have faded away - among the Malays. And some Indians.
The cantankerous, confusing and poor leadership of the Pakatan Cabinet has almost nullified Dr Mahathir's unifying factor.
The Malay vote has obviously swung back to the BN. One swallow does not make a summer and one by election does not change a government but there is a trend that is building up.
In Malaysia ALL elections are determined by the Malay vote. Period. You break the Malay vote the non Malays gain. If the Malay vote is united, the non Malays lose.
The immediate effect of this Camerons by election is that it will pull the brakes on UMNO MPs seeking to switch camps. Hisham Onn may have problems coralling those 20 to 30 UMNO MPs now.
As someone said the Pakatan is turning out to be a 'one hit wonder'.
The Pakatan Harapan ended 61 years of BN rule.
Or misrule for the last 15 years of the BN.
But WHY IS THE PAKATAN HARAPAN NOT PUTTING A STOP TO THE BN'S BAD POLICIES THAT LOST THEM THE ELECTIONS?
WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?
WHY HAVE TOLLS NOT BEEN REMOVED OR AT LEAST REDUCED?
WITH A PROGRESSIVE PLAN TO ELIMINATE THE TOLL COMPLETELY?
PLUS IS MAJORITY OWNED BY THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?
By the way Bankers, do you know that PLUS has committed an event of default? Those monopoly dunggus do not even know how to collect money.
Deputy Minister of MITI Dr Ong Kian Ming has spoken about reducing excise taxes on imported vehicles which will reduce the car prices.
He is just talking.
It is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
I have been saying this for years - REDUCE THE PRICES OF CARS AND VEHICLES.
Please have pity and mercy on millions of Malaysians who are paying BMW prices for Hondas and Toyotas.
In the US, a 2019 Honda Accord starts at US$23,000 or less than RM100,000.
In Malaysia the same car sells for around RM150,000 - RM165,000 (Hybrid).
This is really insane. (For those of you who cannot understand basic 'buy low, sell high' of business - just shut the .... up. Pi cebuk dale sungai saja lah ok?)
As Ong Kian Ming said when we lower the prices of cars (through lowering the insane tax regime on motor vehicles) the sales of cars will pick up. Malaysians will be able to pay less for better cars.
More importantly, if a Honda Accord sells for less than RM100,000 (instead of RM150,000) then the consumer not only saves 30% of the car price but his monthly instalment will also decrease by 30%.
The consumer immediately gets a 30% salary increment in his pocket. Yes the government collects less taxes but the consumer now has more purchasing capacity and he will buy his own products and services (up to that 30% savings in his car instalments) which will relieve the government of providing some of those same services. (What type of services? Health, education, security, housing etc]. It always balances out. But the consumer has more choice.
So please cut the taxes on motor vehicles and reduce the prices of cars.
Please have mercy on the people.
Miss Yeo Bee Yin our Colgate girl has to come out with an action plan (no more master plans ok) to break up TNB. This should have been done 25 years ago. We need competition in the grid.
Here is a suggestion Miss Yeo.
First break up TNB into generation and distribution.
TNB only undertakes distribution.
No power generation.
Let the IPPs handle power generation.
Then break up the TNB distribution into three or four separate distribution companies.
Then let each of the three or four distribution companies negotiate their own PPAs with the IPPs.
This will introduce great competition into the system. The consumers will benefit.
And please make it as easy as going to Ace Hardware to buy and install our own solar panels on our own rooftops. And allow people to sell their excess power back to the grid.
This was started sometime, somewhere but it has died. With the amount of sunshine falling on Malaysia and with a ONE SQUARE METER solar panel on every roof top, we may NEVER have to build another IPP for a hundred years.
If all the sunlight energy striking the surface in Texas alone could be converted to electricity, it would be up to 300 times the total power output of all the power plants in the world!
So Miss Yeo, what shall be your contribution to making our lives better?
There is so much that can be achieved just by reversing old policies.
ABOLISH THE SEDITION ACT NOW.
NOBODY GIVES A RAT'S ASS ABOUT THAT USED L_DA OWNER.
JUST ABOLISH THE SEDITION ACT.
Why do we still have to renew our driving licenses every year?
Hello Anthony LOke?
How many bilions and trillions does the government collect from driving licenses?
In other countries you pay only once in your life time for a driving license.
Do you all remember bicycle licenses and TV licenses?
Up to the 1960s bicycles needed bicycle licenses.
TVs needed TV licenses until Tok Mat abolished TV licenses.
Please abolish this renewal of car licenses lah.
Have mercy on the people.
And restructure the road tax.
Nowadays Mercedes S400 has a 1.8 litre engine.
You cannot calculate road tax based on engine capacity anymore.
It does not make sense.
For a 1000cc car (Axia) the road tax is less than RM50.
So for a 3000cc car it should be about RM150.
Instead the road tax for my 3.2 litre Audi is over RM3000.
This does not make sense.
What is the logic behind this type of road tax structure?
Why punish people for driving better cars - for which they have worked hard to earn the money to buy those cars.
Here is a simple solution.
Calculate road tax according to the car's horsepower lah.
Horsepower does not depend on the engine capacity.
And use a simple formula - charge RM1 for each horsepower.
So the Audi pays RM255.
The Axia still pays about RM50.
Senang kira, senang cerita.
The Pakatan Harapan is not delivering.
Guan Eng and Azmin are engaged in a verbal masturbation about who was in the Cabinet meeting, what was really said, by whom and heard or not heard by whom.
Are you being serious?
And after all the masturbation the public still does not know if that ECRL project is on or off.
It is not happening and it is not going to happen.
The Pakatan will break up.
Mamak Old Doc Shoes cabinet not that lucky also, he has 80% half past six ministers... haha
They do not want New Malaysia - they want the Malaysia they want and it is not the New Malaysia that many of us voted for on May 9th.
So, please think something else instead of having those helming Malaysia these days to be told repeatedly what they surely would have known already if only the New Malaysia is what they are after.
And as far as I am concerned that something else would be the young in the twenties and thirties. For forties and above, they appear to be beyond help already. Arrogance, stupidity and cruelty are all in their DNAs and surrounding.
And so the Highland experience will not be sufficient for them to come down to earth to wake up. Even Semenyih would not be pedih enough. Trust me.
Malaysians and Malaysia are again at a crossroads.
Wassalam,
i thought u were better than that, syed ali. not v out of the box, are we?
i suppose if dap is a liability, pls go and form an all malay coalition. pfft. malaysia does not need the non-bumiputras, right?
Suicide if Accord priced at below RM100k. Third National Car will die a natural death before being born. Dulu said no public funds to be used but now Minister for Entrepreneurs said RM 20 mil ministry funds allocated for it. They said Government no money now but this Third Car nonsense got money . BIG LIE THERE
Bernas still a monopoly. Telekom still a monopoly for fixed broadband. Just open up the local market . Let Singtel, NTT and Docomo in to compete. Faster cheaper broadband means new industries and new jobs and new growth potential
Because at the of the day its all about race,race , race.
Behind the scene are the GLCs and Khazanah . Government can change but mentality still the same. Must put Melayu CEO's somewhere and where better than here at protected and non competitive local market. PNB must have guaranteed dividends every year without fail
Continuing the same failed policies as the government they replaced.
#Bodoh
Looks like PH may not last the mile. Their troubles started the moment the chameleon got him..ehmm " pardon"....
If votes shifted to BN, it's likely out of spite - just as long as PH holds the majority. Me personally, I'll be reserving my vote for the opposition because they have imbeciles running the education system. Education are amongst the fundamental things that really matter i.e. non-negotiable.
As for the licenses, taxes on auto, etc etc - those matter a lot less to me. They're icing on the cake. If the rakyat is screaming for icing on cakes, well, education has failed them. If politicians pander to icing on cakes, well, education has failed them. See a trend?
Everyone has a choice. You can control your choices to a certain extent aka buy an expensive car, expect to pay arms & legs for maintenance, ownership costs etc. etc. That is a personal choice, which anyone can exercise great control over.
Our education choices? Nada. Infact, it's oppressive. If you disagree with their religious schools (which continues to manufacture camel herders), there is only 1 viable option for the vast majority. It isn't a choice if there is only one alternative.
tl;dr Learn the difference between the fundamentals and the superfluous. Applies especially to those with opportunity to change things.
And when proton SUV salesman says "ini kereta nasional fully imported from china"... you know that our economy is doomed.
Enough excuses re abolishment of sedition act. Your ding dong re the abolition of that act showed that you are no better than the previous BN regime, wanting to stop dissent by shutting the people's mouth.
Reduce the car prices radically, reduce North South Highway tolls but introduce congestion toll to the city centre. Bring in electic cars (ckd not cbu), encourage the use of solar panels.
Tun M will not lead PRU15, that alone could cause PH to lose. Without obvious improvements to the overall well-beings of the rakyats, what is there to convince the atas pagar fellas to vote for PH?
In this country the voters that matters are the Malay voters, they decide who win or lose in an election, and yet we have politicians who has been in Malaysian politics for almost their whole life, and yet not knowing this fact.
Look at Lim Kit Siang and his ego maniac son who constantly attack Najib. Don't they know that when they over attacked Najib the malays will react, simply because a chinaman is attacking a pemimpin melayu, and their pride cannot allow this, irrespective of whether najib is totally corrupted or not. And since he has been charged in court, they should allow the law to take its own course.
No other politician in this country has attacked najib more than this father and son combo Why do they hate najib so much, when it was not najib who sent them to jail. Najib is setting a trap for them and yet they dont seem to realize.
My advice to these father and son is to just shut the f..k up as far as Najib is concern, otherwise they will be greatly responsible for the demise of PH, which will be a great tragedy and Tun will not be able to help.
unless of course u feel the only reason to attack these ministers because they'll get shit done?
my q is... why not attack Amanah, Bersatu and PKR ministers for their lack of performance?
Personally I think all OKT is doing better than the minister himself? Who is it anyway? YBY is doing well as much as I hate this no straw business. And AL is doing OK as transport.
The lousy ones are those u hear nothing from. like the entrepreneur minister. what has he done?!?!
The PH choice of candidate really is no brainer. The usual suspect while BN went out from its usual choice and chose an orang asli and a local boy as their best man in CH. PH chose a candidate who had lost 2 previous elections at the same place before. And he being an Indian at this moment in time made it even more difficult where Malay sentiment is still negative from the Adib’s episode.
At this point in time, there’s no way Malay voters are in the mood to vote for PH candidate.
When we’re in the government, having and contributing large seats in the coalition, we tend to be arrogant. Refusing to listen to anyone. Shutting out window of discussion. Insisting on a candidate which everyone knew was not winnable in the first place, especially to Malay voters. The problem is not about the seat but the candidate. The candidate has got to be IN THE RIGHT PLACE AND AT THE RIGHT TIME all the time. You’ve got to make it right here first before start moving on on other stuff like logistics and machinery.
berat mata memandang berat lagi bahu memikul. pakatan harapan baru tak sampai 1 tahun memerintah. itu pun dah banyak kebaiakan dibuat untuk rakyat. tugas mereka bukan mudah. tak payahlah dok asyik kondem PH. Kondem mudah. mereka yg buat kerja juga yang berat bahu mereka
PH Mini-Star are now acting like UMNO. Start action, berlagak, sudah macam gangster. They are quickly losing the rakyat respect.
The worse performers are from Bersatu & PKR. Not surprised as many are ex-UMNO. If these people want to berlagak macam UMNO, masuk balik UMNO lah.
I know these Mini-Star won't read this. They're already arrogant & blind to what is happening on the ground. Perhaps they really do deserve to be only 1 term Government.
FACT: even if PH is still there for GE15, their manifesto ALREADY stinks like rotten fish. Because the rakyat knows it's mostly lies.
Once bitten, twice shy!
You conned the people once, you think they will bite twice?
Don't say Mahathir not to blame, lah
Who is the captain of the sinking ship?
THIS IS NOT THE 1980s
Everything travels on social media, you cannot control thought like before.
a) Where is the govt comms team? They are being OUTPLAYED by Najib's few remaining team!
b) Where is the REVISED manifesto?
c) What is the new objectives for Ministries?
d) Where is the master plan? THAT IS A CABINET TASK. WTF DO THEY DO IN CABINET MEETINGS?????
Useless performance so far.
Remember, 20% swing from the Malays and PH can start packing their bags.
They know that, and still as ****ing useless as ever!!!
Wake up lah, you clowns
May some higher power save M'sia.
Why sound so angry, brader...
Isn't it your PH... Hahaha
Why malay hate DAP?
Not by UMNO propaganda..but by DAP leadership behavior, speech and family/Chinese centric.
Anywhere in the world, Chinese well known as fire.. domination & rude.. distinguish them from Japan, Korean, Taiwan , Vietnam good Confucianism civilization feeling/ image..
Bila kecil boleh kawan baik, bila besar dia makan,bully kita..
If DAP election votes Malay as candidate openly then DAP can say they represent Malaysian.
Otherwise forget it..
