A Crisis Manufactured by Irresponsible Leaders and Poor Leadership: The Higher Education Ministry, in collaboration with state governments, should have acted as the gatekeeper, ensuring that educational institutions align their output with actual market demand. Instead, they have facilitated a crisis. The figures speak for themselves: between 200,000 to 350,000 graduates are produced each year, while fewer than 50,000 skilled jobs are created annually in the East Coast region. This is not mere inefficiency—it is a scandal. Thousands of young, hopeful graduates are left with nothing but empty promises and the cruel reality of unemployment or underemployment.

Where is the accountability? Where is the leadership that is supposed to guide educational and economic policy? This imbalance reflects a complete breakdown of communication between academic institutions, industries, and local communities. It shows a failure to anticipate market needs, resulting in an influx of graduates forced to migrate for opportunities or settle for jobs well below their skill levels. This migration drains regional talent, exacerbating economic disparity, and deepens the socioeconomic divide.

It is time to hold the state governments of east coast, and the Ministry of Higher Education accountable for a systemic failure that has plagued the East Coast for far too long. The overproduction of graduates far outstripping the number of skilled jobs available is not merely a lapse in planning—it is a monumental blunder in workforce management that borders on negligence. For years, there has been an unrestrained increase in university intakes without regard for the realities of the job market. This reckless expansion has led to a cascade of wasted human potential and economic instability. Enough is enough.

The World Bank report on Malaysia paints a truly inspiring picture of government efficiency in the East Coast—Kelantan, Terengganu, and Pahang. Over five glorious years from 2018 to 2023, fewer than 50,000 highly skilled jobs were created annually. Yet, with remarkable foresight, the Ministry of Higher Education churned out between 200,000 to 350,000 graduates each year, competing fiercely for these jobs. Clearly, we are witnessing the art of overproduction perfected.

Impaired Critical Thinking and Cognitive Flexibility
Indoctrination often involves presenting a rigid, unquestionable belief system, which can lead to the suppression of critical thinking skills. From a young age, children's brains are highly plastic, meaning they are adaptable and shaped by their environment. However, when they are exposed to rigid, dogmatic thinking:

Prefrontal Cortex Development: This part of the brain is responsible for higher-order functions such as reasoning, problem-solving, and decision-making. Indoctrination can impede the development of the prefrontal cortex by discouraging questioning and critical analysis, leading to reduced cognitive flexibility.
Neuroplasticity: The brain's ability to adapt and change based on new information may be hindered. When children are taught to accept beliefs without questioning, they are less likely to engage with diverse perspectives or revise their opinions in light of new evidence.

Reinforcement of Fear-Based Responses
Fundamentalist indoctrination often employs fear, guilt, or the threat of punishment to enforce obedience and conformity. This can lead to the hyperactivation of the amygdala, the brain’s fear center, and result in a heightened sensitivity to perceived threats:

Chronic Stress and Fear: Fear-based teachings can result in long-term changes in the brain. Children exposed to constant fear of hell, punishment, or other threats may develop an overactive stress response. This can lead to chronic anxiety and stress disorders later in life.
Fight-or-Flight Response: Frequent activation of the amygdala can cause the brain to become overly focused on immediate threats, narrowing the ability to engage in abstract thinking, creative problem-solving, or long-term planning.

Stunted Emotional Development
Indoctrination often involves strict emotional control, particularly by limiting expressions of doubt, anger, or rebellion. This can inhibit the development of emotional regulation and empathy:

Limited Emotional Range: By discouraging children from expressing their true feelings, fundamentalist systems can prevent them from developing emotional intelligence—the ability to understand and regulate their emotions and the emotions of others.
Suppression of Empathy: In cases where indoctrination teaches exclusionary or "us versus them" mentalities (e.g., labeling outsiders or non-believers as evil), it can blunt the development of empathy and compassion toward others, reinforcing rigid social divisions.

Overactivation of Reward Systems for Conformity
Many indoctrination systems use rewards for conformity and obedience, whether it's praise from religious authorities, the promise of an afterlife, or social inclusion. This can lead to overreliance on extrinsic motivation, affecting the brain’s reward pathways:

Dopaminergic Reward Systems: The brain’s reward system, which involves dopamine, can become tied to compliance rather than curiosity, creativity, or independent thought. When children learn that rewards come from conforming to strict norms, they may develop a dependency on external validation rather than pursuing intrinsic goals based on curiosity or self-motivation.
Decreased Autonomy: This conditioning of the reward system can create adults who struggle to make independent choices, always seeking approval from authority figures or adhering rigidly to predefined rules.

Reduction of Exposure to Diverse Ideas
Indoctrination often isolates children from ideas and perspectives that contradict the doctrine being taught. This lack of exposure to diverse viewpoints can stunt intellectual and psychological growth:

Decreased Gray Matter Growth: Studies have shown that people who are more open to novel experiences tend to have more developed gray matter, which is associated with cognitive function and processing power. When children are shielded from diverse ideas, their ability to process complex information and appreciate nuance may be diminished.
Echo Chamber Effect: When only one perspective is presented, children may internalize an "echo chamber" mentality, where they are unable to recognize or tolerate dissenting opinions. This can foster cognitive biases, such as confirmation bias, where they only seek information that reinforces pre-existing beliefs.

Development of Authoritarian Personality Traits
Indoctrination in fundamentalist settings often promotes absolute obedience to authority figures, whether religious leaders, parents, or other symbols of power. This can contribute to the development of authoritarian personality traits:

Rigid Thinking and Intolerance for Ambiguity: Children who grow up in environments where questioning authority is discouraged are more likely to adopt rigid, black-and-white thinking. They may become intolerant of ambiguity or complexity, seeing the world in terms of simple moral dichotomies (good vs. evil, believer vs. non-believer).
Submission to Authority: Repeated conditioning to obey authority figures without question can also make children more vulnerable to manipulation and control by charismatic leaders or authoritarian figures in adulthood.

Interference with Identity Formation
Indoctrination can interfere with the healthy development of a child’s sense of self, making it difficult for them to explore their personal beliefs, values, and goals:

Stunted Personal Exploration: Fundamentalism often discourages personal exploration and self-discovery, as it imposes a pre-defined set of values and beliefs. This can prevent children from developing a strong, autonomous identity and make them more prone to feelings of confusion or insecurity later in life.
Cognitive Dissonance: When children grow older and encounter ideas that conflict with their indoctrinated beliefs, they may experience cognitive dissonance—a mental discomfort caused by holding contradictory beliefs. If their foundational beliefs are too rigid, this dissonance can lead to internal conflict, anxiety, or even trauma.

Social and Relational Deficits
Indoctrination, especially when it involves strong "us versus them" thinking, can limit social development by isolating children from those who hold different beliefs:

Social Isolation: Children who are raised in rigid fundamentalist environments may be discouraged from forming relationships with people outside their group. This can lead to social isolation and difficulties in developing friendships, partnerships, or working relationships with people who hold different perspectives.
Lack of Conflict Resolution Skills: If children are taught that dissent is wrong, they may struggle to navigate conflicts in healthy ways. This can lead to either avoidance of conflict altogether or the use of authoritarian tactics (such as coercion or aggression) to resolve disagreements.

While religious or ideological belief systems can offer comfort, community, and a sense of meaning, the process of indoctrination—particularly when it involves fundamentalism—can impair critical cognitive and emotional development in young children. These negative changes can persist into adulthood, affecting their ability to think critically, empathize, and function in a complex and diverse world. Therefore, fostering environments that encourage open inquiry, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence is essential to protect the brain's development and allow children to reach their full potential.

In fact, to live eternally is the real suffering paradoxically!! As the trueest ever prophet says, "To live eternally is to suffer indefinitely!".......................hehe

Prophet Dickens expresses the correct idea that, just as we did not suffer or feel anything before birth, death might bring a similar state of peaceful nothingness, free from suffering.

Budget 2025: Focus on Tangible Welfare
In a world facing immense economic, environmental, and social challenges, public funds should be concentrated on tangible, real-world solutions that address the needs of all citizens. Spending money on religiosity—while it may cater to certain spiritual needs—does not alleviate the very real struggles of the high cost of living. Instead, it detracts from more pressing issues like poverty, inequality, and sustainability. Public spending must be guided by principles of justice, equality, and long-term social benefit, ensuring that every dollar spent improves the lives of the people it serves.

Many modern constitutions emphasize the separation of religion and state, precisely because mixing the two often results in unequal distribution of power and resources. In such systems, the state’s role is to provide for the material well-being of its citizens, while religion’s role is personal and spiritual. Spending public funds on religion blurs this separation and may undermine the principles of:

Democracy
Equality
Universal human rights

Vernacular vs national schooling -Risk of Social Fragmentation: In societies with multiple religious beliefs, public spending on religious activities can deepen divisions and cause social fragmentation. Religious spending may appear as favoritism toward certain groups while excluding others. This can lead to a sense of alienation among minorities and marginalized groups, fostering resentment and even social unrest. Governments must be careful to:

Promote unity and commonality
Strengthen civic identity over religious identity
Ensure equality of opportunity, not favor specific religious communities
Public funds should be used to bring people together, through investment in common goods like education, public health, and infrastructure—areas where all benefit equally, regardless of their religious background.

Bagai mencurah garam ke laut - Religiosity Doesn't Solve Economic Problems: While religious institutions may offer moral guidance or community support, they do not, and cannot, solve the material and systemic challenges posed by the high cost of living. Religion may provide spiritual comfort, but:

It doesn't build affordable homes
It doesn't create jobs
It doesn't provide healthcare or feed the hungry
It doesn’t mitigate the impacts of inflation, debt, or rising commodity prices
The challenges of this millennium—especially under the pressures of inflation, global economic instability, and climate change—require public funds to be directed toward real-world solutions that address the core material needs of citizens.

Religiosity Inevitably Favors the Elite: Often, public funding for religious institutions tends to favor established religious elites. In many cases, these elites do not represent the needs or interests of the broader public. The resources funneled to religious institutions may:

Reinforce power imbalances, favoring those in religious authority
Perpetuate social control mechanisms that hinder critical thinking, scientific inquiry, and open discourse
Divert attention away from the need to hold those in power accountable for addressing the real socioeconomic problems that affect the daily lives of citizens
In times of economic hardship, these power imbalances are magnified as religious leaders may act as gatekeepers for state resources, making it harder for ordinary citizens to access the public goods they desperately need.

Missed Opportunity for Societal Growth
The most pressing issues today—climate change, unemployment, access to clean water, renewable energy, sustainable agriculture—require significant public investment and innovation. When funds are diverted to religious institutions or ceremonies, it represents a missed opportunity to address the fundamental challenges that could improve the standard of living for everyone. Money spent on religiosity could instead:

Fund scientific research
Build green energy infrastructure
Improve education systems
Develop affordable healthcare
These are long-term investments that help build a prosperous, equitable society. Investing in these areas provides sustainable solutions that enable societies to flourish.

Religiosity is Personal, Not Public: Religion, by its very nature, is a personal and private matter. The diversity of religious beliefs means that the public funding of any particular religious agenda could alienate or marginalize groups with differing beliefs. It risks causing division rather than unity. When public money is spent on religious institutions, events, or symbols, it often does so at the cost of inclusivity. In contrast, secular public services—like health, education, and social security—benefit everyone, regardless of their faith or lack thereof.

In essence, public funds should be used for collective purposes, not to further personal religious beliefs.

Public funds are finite, and their primary function is to serve the welfare of all citizens, regardless of religious affiliation or belief. By diverting these funds to religious purposes, governments neglect pressing needs such as:

Affordable housing programs
Healthcare services
Job creation and workforce development
Education and public infrastructure

Misallocation of Resources In an era of rising costs of living, where housing, healthcare, education, and basic necessities become increasingly difficult to afford, spending public funds on religiosity (religious institutions, events, and symbols) can be seen as a misallocation of scarce resources.

Difficulty in Embracing Diversity and Inclusivity: Indoctrination often involves a narrow worldview that focuses on particular religious or cultural in-groups, sometimes accompanied by a belief in their superiority. Universalism, on the other hand, encourages a recognition of the equality and shared humanity of all people. Children raised in GISHB homes may find it difficult to appreciate diversity or engage in inclusive social practices, as they have been taught to view the world in binary terms (believers vs. non-believers, righteous vs. sinful).

Building Peace and Prosperity ("Heaven on Earth"):
Good Governance and Financial Prudence: Effective budgeting and resource allocation are fundamental to fostering national prosperity. When a country avoids excessive debt and mismanagement, it can invest in infrastructure, education, healthcare, and sustainable development, uplifting the well-being of its citizens.
Justice and Equity: Ensuring that wealth is distributed equitably, opportunities are accessible, and systems of justice are fair helps create societies where people feel secure and hopeful.
Environmental Stewardship: Nations prioritizing renewable energy, conservation, and long-term ecological balance tend to create environments that are sustainable and nurturing, where future generations can thrive.

Creating Suffering and War ("Hell on Earth"):
Corruption and Exploitation: Corrupt governance, when resources are misappropriated or squandered, often leads to economic collapse, unemployment, and social unrest. The burden of mismanagement and excess debt can ripple through generations.
Inequity and Oppression: Countries that concentrate power and wealth in the hands of a few, while oppressing the majority, breed resentment and social fragmentation, leading to violence, civil wars, and suffering.
Military Aggression and Imperialism: Money spent on militarization and warfare fuels global conflicts, often benefiting powerful elites while leaving destruction and poverty in its wake. The oppressed are left vulnerable and marginalized.

Whether peace, prosperity, war, or suffering dominates the world often hinges on the choices made by individuals, governments, and societies. The metaphorical "heaven" and "hell" can indeed be seen in the physical realities of different nations.

How a country plans its finances reflects its priorities. An enlightened, sustainable budget can lead to peace, education, healthcare, and stability, while poor financial planning—especially with excessive borrowing—can lead to economic dependency and fuel conflicts that propagate suffering.

In essence, the "heaven" or "hell" we experience on Earth is largely the result of the decisions we collectively make. From how countries manage debt to how they allocate resources, every action shapes the global landscape of peace or conflict. It highlights the role of leadership, foresight, and collective responsibility in shaping a better future.

The Role of Annual Budgeting:

Absolutely, it depends on how a country stay away from getting caught with hutang keliling pinggang and paying high interests - ultimately this excess money will indirectly go to fuel wars around the world- oppressing the weak

So, it all depends how a country do the annual budgeting - excellent ones make progress to heaven for the whole nation; bad decision gets the nation to the wrong destination (hell for all)

Shhhhhh...........the founder of Judaism wouldn't have expected or predicted such an effect.

But, absolutely! Because clearly, the only way a religion that’s been around for over 1,400 years and spans billions of people could ever be weakened is by a secret conspiracy. Forget internal politics, economic challenges, or global dynamics—it must all be part of the grand Jewish plot. How else would anything happen in the world, right?
