How can Mahathir develop the country without GST or heavy borrowing ?

The original post in written in Malay and was translate in English as near as possible by one of my blog readers. After the English translation is the Original Malay Version. No difference between the both PMs as one uses third party banking accounts (cronies) and the other uses direct debit banking accounts . Good help Malaysia as only leaders of calibre are the thieves. Where have all the good men gone to

Read bekow in English

Najib Razak has built infrastructure such as the MRT, the Pan Borneo highway, the east coast railway track and LRT connections without any direct govt borrowings. There is no agreement with concessionaires that not only burdens the rakyat but benefits the capitalist immensely. The government borrowing will only increase. We will know exactly how much has to be paid and we are not open to the capitalist threat who will want to hike up prices pending election or with lopsided concession agreements.

 

Yes, on paper during Mahathir's government reign there was not many direct borrowings. Mahathir built all the highways, Putrajaya, LRT, ERL through public/private partnerships or via private finance initiative (PFI) the government didnt owe anything.

 

On the other hand, the concessionaires were free to to milk the rakyat as they wished, if they fail to milk the rakyat by way of higher toll fee than they could do so by asking the government who must pay up.

 Mahathir made agreements that increases fees with time and this is happens till today. Mahathir allowed this uncontrolled and senseless demand without realizing the rakyat's affordability, so when it becomes a political issue the government is forced to compensate the consessionaires.

The government has compensated RM4 billion to the toll concessionaires for the last 15 years.

 

The LRT system project STAR and Putra LRT has been taken over by Prasarana Negara Bhd (SPNB) at a cost of RM 3.3 billion and RM 4.5 billion respectively, was this paid in cash by the government ? This came to light only after Mahathir retired.

 The owing has ballooned because the overly clever Mahathir didn't want the government to owe but had allowed private entities to owe with very high interest rate so when there is a loss or if the concessionaire windup, the government has to foot the bill which is way much more from the actual building cost to safeguard these infra projects.

 The question now is where is the logic that Mahathir has contributed to the development without affecting or burdening the rakyat, so can we do without collecting GST and borrowings ? The Kerajaan Persekutuan has to pay rental of RM 2 billion per year but the government has to compensate RM 2.9 billion to YTL a Mahathir crony in order to prevent ERL from increasing their prices, are you aware that besides that ERL gets RM 5 every time a users uses its service to the KLIA airport ?

 

Yes, Mahathir can develop this nation without GST because he has done so by paying billions of ringgit as compensation for he is not bothered what will happen in future so long as he can proper and look good in the history books.

Hujah Bangang Zaman Mahathir Tidak Perlu Ada GST Pun Hospital Kerajaan Percuma.

Memanglah, Mahathir dia tak kira rakyat susah yang terpaksa ke hospital dalam jarak sampai 100 KM.
1. Tempoh 2001 hingga 2012, bilangan hospital Kerajaan telah bertambah daripada 128 buah hospital pada tahun 2000 kepada 139 buah hospital pada tahun 2012.
2. Pada tahun 2001, jumlah katil di hospital Kerajaan adalah 7,434 buah, namun pada tahun 2012, jumlah katil telah bertambah kepada 42,707 buah.
3. Pada 2001 jumlah doktor kerajaan 8,615 orang, pada 2012 jumlah doktor kerajaan ialah 27,478. Ini belum termasuk doktor pelatih yang mencecah 3000 orang setahun.
4. Pada 2001 jumlah jururawat kerajaan ialah 24, 543 orang. Manakala pada 2012 jumlah meningkat kepada 56, 089.

Saya percaya angka ini telah meningkat lagi sehingga 2016. Semua ini memakan perbelanjaan yang tinggi. Takkan nak buat hospital macam hendak buat lebuh raya zaman Mahathir? 🤣

Ini belum termasuk kenaikan gaji para doktor yang tinggi bagi mengelakkan doktor kerajaan pergi ke swasta. Mahathir ada fikir semua tu?
Harga ubat dan kos peralatan perubatan juga meningkat berkali ganda.
Hampa agak zaman sapa rakyat lebih senang dapat perkhidmatan kesihatan?
Zaman siapa kerajaan kena tanggung kos lagi tinggi?
Jadi tidak perlulah buat kenyataan zaman Mahathir tidak ada GST pun kerajaan boleh bagi perkhidmatan baik. Hampa mudah lupa sebenarnya.

Ini pun Najib Razak jahat juga?

Unknown facts about the Partition of India into India and Pakistan

Felt like writing something about the wrongs Britain have done in the Partition of India and Pakistan

Partition of India was a British conspiracy to keep the Indian subcontinent unbalanced and Ghandi with Nehru were party to this tragedy. Pakistan was forced on to Jinnah who did not want Pakistan but Pakistan was forced on him. The traitors were Gandhi, Nehru and the Congress Party. That is why Netaji Subash Bose Chandra quit congress and when overseas to recruit an army to fight the British

This is biting the West know because of the foolishness of the British. Now there is an Islamic nation which is radicalized and has nuclear weapons – Pakistan a basket case.

Allah Bux Soomro: A Muslim who opposed the Two Nation Theory

‘Living an hour of glory is much better than living an age with no name’. Whether it’s Jinnah in Pakistan, or Nehru in India, none of them deserve the adulation that have been unfortunately bestowed upon them. Thanks to these two wily politicians, scores of true heroes, who actually fought for India’s freedom and integrity, were callously forgotten. Among them, sadly, is a hero, who like Frontier Gandhi (Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan), fought for India’s unity, fought for India’s freedom, fought against the injudicious Two Nation Theory. But sadly, neither of the residents either side of the border know of him as of today. His name was Allah Bux Soomro, the ex-Prime Minister of Sindh, and this is his story.

Born in 1900, at Shikarpur, the leader of Sind Ittehad Party belonged to the scion of the illustrious Soomro Rajputs. He was introduced to politics at a very age. Good political connections, along with a strong base in the Anglo Indian education, made him an apparent moderate leader, in reality a stooge of the British imperialists. For his services, he was not only bestowed with the Khan Bahadur, but also was awarded the British knighthood, by King George the Vth.

However, the Indian in this political revolutionary, an equivalent of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel was never suppressed. Once he became the Premier of Sindh, his patriotism came out, which infuriated the quisling members of the Muslim League. Owing to his popularity, Allah Bux Soomro had a sizeable support in the Muslim majority provinces of British India, as well as that of Hindus. Unlike the pseudo seculars of today, his vision was that of a United India, where heritage and culture belonged to Hindus and Muslims alike. Probably, Allah Bux Soomro knew what Akhand Bharat actually meant. In fact, his respect for the freedom fighters can be derived from the fact, that he overturned the decision of revolutionary Obeidullah Sindhi’s exile, during his premiership and allowed him to come back to India.

 

However, his nationalist stance was an obstacle in Jinnah’s road to Pakistan. In fact, his support for secularism in the Manzilgah controversy, where Muslim League anarchists forcefully wished to occupy the Manzilgah premises, and destroy the Saadha Belo temple, drew the ire of both the Muslim League, and the Indian National Congress. In fact, Jawahar Lal Nehru allegedly hated Allah Bux’s influence among the Sindh community. Conspiring against this revolutionary, both Muslim League and Congress passed the No Confidence Motion against him, and forced him to resign. Soomro was appointed the member of National Defence Council, following his dismissal.

However, no sooner had the Quit India Movement commenced in 1942, than Allah Bux Soomro realized that it is time to mobilize the Sindh and other provinces for the One Nation Theory, opposing Jinnah’s demand for Pakistan.

He resigned from the Premiership of Sindh, and gave away his Khan Bahadur title and knighthood as well. He also resigned as the member of National Defence Council. The stage was set for a cultural movement.

Unfortunately, Allah Bux’s movement was cut short, tragically, when four men brutally murdered him on 14^th May 1943, while he was traveling on a tonga in Shikarpur, his native town. The case is not yet solved till today, but many a theorist still attribute the murder to be the alleged brainchild of the Muslim League as well as the Congress.

With Allah Bux’s death, the movement of One Nation Theory lost its momentum, and the lust for power prevailed. What was one for lakhs of years was broken into two on 15^th August 1947 that is our beloved India. Today, most of us even don’t know this man’s name. However, once I knew of this man, it is my duty to bring this Indian’s tale to the folklore. Allah Bux Soomro is India’s forgotten hero, just like Surjya Sen and other revolutionaries, and he deserves his due. He deserves our RESPECT!

No more medicine for pensioners? Why why we worked our arse off and voted for BN time and time again

My Comments -Civil servants work all their working life in the government service but pittance and when retired and need help, they are just disregarded as trash. Go on voting for the BN government election after election with sweet promises that are never kept and this is what you get when you are too trusting and left to fend for yourselves . would not be surprised , the government may delay or just stop paying pensions. Only time will tell what the Government cat drags the next thing in . Who to blame for only yourselves. Maybe I am cruel in saying this but it is the Gospel truth

Pensioners have no clue why JPA cancelled the contract with Oratis, the company that had been supplying the medicine to them throughout the country since 2012.

By P Ramakrishnan

Pensioners were hit with a thunder-bolt with the sudden announcement that no more medicine will be supplied for them by Oratis Services Sdn Bhd, the JPA-appointed company. Oratis had been supplying the medicine to all pensioners throughout the country since 2012.

According to a friend in Ipoh, when his wife went to the general hospital on 27 February to apply for Suplasyn, (Sterile Sodium Hyaluronate) for treatment for her painful knee problem, she was told that that the hospital had received instructions not to prescribe this and other medicines as from 28 February. This treatment was available for all pensioners for many years.

I’m told by a pharmacy in Penang that they received this notification from Oratis vide email on 27 February at 3.00 pm instructing them not to issue any more medicine to pensioners from February 28 onwards as was the case prior to this email. Strangely, they were given less than 24 hours’ notice to stop supplying medicine to pensioners.

Why such urgency? Why this sudden turn of events? What is the problem? Don’t pensioners deserve to know? Aren’t they entitled to this information?

To make matters worse, pensioners have not been told how they are going to have access to their much-needed medicine from now onwards. What does a cardiac patient on blood thinners do now? Is there an alternate source for him to acquire his monthly supply of life-saving medicine? Is there an alternate system in place to replace Oratis?

We are in the dark.

Before Oratis, the company supplying the medicine, came into the picture, pensioners collected their supply of medicine from the hospital pharmacy. When any medicine was not available from the hospital pharmacy, and if this medicine was deemed necessary for the patient, the specialist would recommend that this medicine be bought outside and paid for by the patient who could subsequently claim the cost of medicine from the Public Services Commission (JPA)

This system worked very well for all concerned for a long time.

Then in 2012, the JPA introduced this new system by appointing Oratis to provide the medicine that were not available at the government hospitals. At the initial stages, we had to fax the prescription to Oratis in KL who would then call us to confirm that they had received the prescription and inform us that the medicine would be sent to us by PosLaju which was done subsequently.

Later, pharmacies were required to register with Oratis which simplified matters. All that the pensioner had to do was to present to the pharmacy the authorised form signed by the specialist together with the prescription and collect the medicine. It made things easier for pensioners.

By transferring the supply line to Oratis, it added to the cost and made healthcare expensive. The administrative cost of Oratis has to be paid for but who pays for it? When pharmacies sell their medicine, medical tools and devices to Oratis their profit margin is included to the cost. When Oratis supplies this medicine to pensioners, I’m told, that Oratis adds another 17% profit margin on top of that. You can imagine how much more JPA ends up paying Oratis for the supply of medicine!

We have no clue why JPA cancelled the contract with Oratis. Was there a falling out with certain personalities? Or is there a new company in the offing to take over this medical business from Oratis and reap a huge profit?

It is difficult to fathom government policies. But pensioners need to know soon where their supply of medicine will come from. Can we be enlightened, please?

CANADIAN MAYOR REFUSES TO REMOVE PORK FROM SCHOOL CANTEEN MENU* and EXPLAINS WHY

Comments -When in Rome do like the Romans or get out. Do not go to somebody's home and demand things as if it is your own home. If not happy go home to your own home where you can be King and Queen.The key is if it is hot get out out and do not bother coming back

Muslim parents demanded the abolition of pork in all the school canteens of a Montreal suburb. The mayor of the Montreal suburb of Dorval has refused, and the town-clerk sent a note to all parents to explain why. Here's that note:

“Muslims must understand that they have to adapt to Canada and Quebec, its customs, its traditions, its way of life, because that's where they chose to immigrate.

“They must understand that they have to integrate and learn to live in Quebec.

“They must understand that it is for them to change their lifestyle, not the Canadians who so generously welcomed them.

“They must understand that Canadians are neither racist nor xenophobic, they accepted many immigrants before Muslims (whereas the reverse is not true, in that Muslim states do not accept non-Muslim immigrants).

“That no more than other nations, Canadians are not willing to give up their identity, their culture.

“And if Canada is a land of welcome, it's not the Mayor of Dorval who welcomes foreigners, but the Canadian-Quebecois people as a whole.

“Finally, they must understand that in Canada (Quebec) with its Judeo-Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches and religious festivals, religion must remain in the private domain.
The municipality of Dorval was right to refuse any concessions to Islam and Sharia.

“For Muslims who disagree with secularism and do not feel comfortable in Canada, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries in the world, most of them under-populated and ready to receive them with open halal arms in accordance with Sharia.

“If you left your country for Canada, and not for other Muslim countries, it is because you have considered that life is better in Canada than elsewhere.

“Ask yourself the question, just once, “Why is it better here in Canada than where you come from?” 'A canteen with pork' is part of the answer

Getting rid or reducimg Foreign Labour in Malaysia

Government must take below steps to make foreign labour expensive in Malaysia

 

1.       Increase levy to 25% of annual foreign worker wages

2.       Income tax on foreign worker to be paid by employer and make taxable income minimum RM 10,000 annual wages

3.      Force employers to contribute EPF for foreign workers

4.       Annual air ticket back to home country and back to Malaysia

5.      Free accommodation

6.      Free transport home to work to home to work

7.     Minimum 1 month bonus

8.     Medical insurance
Annual leave

9.     If worker is married, than worker is given family status with education for children paid by employer.

10.  Termination benefits

11.  Gratuity

Why because our local workers will gain when foreign labour gets expensive and anyhow the employers still make profits or will not be doing business. Malaysian business need to shift mode to less labour intensive jobs and more on skilled jobs as we have a pool of unemployed graduates in every imaginable fields. The days of labour intensive industries are past tense for Malaysia because manufacturing facilities using unskilled and semi skill labour moving off to cheaper countries in South East Asia.


There is are no poor businessmen but only rich ones and why else are they in business if the businesses don’t make money

The government need the political will to change the labour policy or else Malaysia is going to be going downhill and end up like a basket case waiting for handouts
