Our vaccine can stop Omicron while other countries cannot stop. We are all blessed.

Up because not many shares in the market earlier.

Now 12 times more shares...

To shrink the nm (pn channel width), it takes billions to upgrade the equipment. For chip shortage, it is seen across a lots of channel size. 200nm is considered very low tech.

Intel stayed in 14nm for too long and just migrated to 10nm. TSMC is mass producing 7nm chips for AMD and Apple maybe for 3 years already. 5nm is coming end of this year.

Directors get free food.

Yes. Agents are the culprits not the employers.

It's a waste of energy to fight over two biggest evils in the world.

Xi doesn't talk much. For those who knew him in early days, they were given an impression that Xi was a very power hungry person. Everything he did, he wanted a ladder up.

When we prosper, we don't need foreign investors. That's why we have prosperity tax. We are good by ourselves.

One thing CCP is good at: sending corrupted politicians to jail. This is what Malaysia is lacking. But when they send Anwar to jail, it was fast. Maybe same life, different destiny.

The world is now being threatened by "China consumerism". We were used to be threatened by "USA consumerism".

For company to grow forever, it needs to find potential customers who are willing to spend. It used to be USA. Now China.

uncensored, there are a lots of CCP fans here in i3. I think you are wasting your time here. They love CCP to rule China forever.

He never wastes a bullet. Always kills birds in one stone.

No doubt Wuhan P1 lab was doing corona virus GOF research when the outbreak started. Too many evidence although many were erased after the outbreak. The leftover evidence is still abundant. I am not saying there is a lab leak. Strong evidence showed that the similar virus was present in the lab nearby the seafood market compared with other parts of China. Coincidence?

Published papers cannot be forgotten just like that as they were already seen and reAd by many eyes.

Enforcement. Create fear.

Yes. Omicron may turn covid into flu. Need to monitor the hospitalisation rate as there's where gloves are needed.

This forum is a place to show off report card and spread fake news. What a wonderful virtual world to be.

What the FOOK!

Yes, the "Con" version suits Leno more.

Limit up phenomenon will be less likely for 2022 as there is no upper limit in the stamping fees.

The mountain shape chart will be not that steep.

When you are sure that you don't need to sleep in a jail anymore, you will sleep very well at night.

It feels great to have a "get-out-jail-free" card on hand.

Harapan is a hope for minority although it is gone forever. Minority is not important.

Harapan besides anti-corruption, it also carries an image of tolerance among races.

But this may also sound like an intimidation of status to some.

Usually during bad economy, rakyat wants easy money. Corruption or no corruption they don't really care although it may affect their future generations but they are not concerned yet for now.

well said, kuku

It's an easy common sense question.

62% want easy access to help from government sacrificing the other 38%.

It's human nature during a pandemic. Politicians that make use of this weakness will claim victory. Majority rules in a democratic country.

It just turns out that 62% came from the same race. An easy access for politicians to unfair advantage to the throne.

62% need easy help from the government sacrificing the other 38%.

Selangor was on the rise for the past few weeks but nobody talks about it.

Taxes proposed by Najib recently: https://youtu.be/P1kc225aP3E

My mistake. I did not calculate it right.

So if CPO drops below 3500, no tax?

Which plantation company kena prosperity burger?

No plantation company?

October did not crash as proposed by Robert Kiyosaki. He never made a right prediction. Idolising him can be a ...

Plantation sector will be worst hit by budget 2022.

No HOC (buy incentive) but has RPGT waiver after 5 years (sell incentive).

This is the opposite of what Najib proposed to MOF. He proposed a RPGT.

MOF cannot put to much stress on housing/property as his former company CIMB will suffer.

Retail investors react positively towards this new tax structure, surprisingly. Institutions and foreigners were selling and they cannot react as they have no or minimum shares. Plantation companies will help Malaysia to recover by contributing more taxes. Owners, directors and shareholders are the biggest losers.

Thanks Calvin for recommending plantation stocks and Robert Kiyosaki to Malaysian.

October did not crash. Plantation companies help Malaysia recover.

Establish footprint and allies. Prove that capitalistic countries are there to plunder, China is there to help.

I thought MOF will reject suggestions by Najib. In the end, these are the taxes proposed by Najib to recover Malaysia.

I meant it was a SMART budget. Sembelih local companies to win an election.

You either declare dividend or to be taxed in 2022. You can also buy more crypto but when you convert to cash, there will be a 3% foreign income tax.

From: Rich companies + Plantation profit + foreign income + stock market (stamping fee)
To: votes for next GE (all aspects)

This is the smart money flow for 2022.

Money has to come from somewhere.

I meant when corporate tax goes up so much next year, EPS of all companies will drop and companies will also try hard to lower the EPS by going into expansion, ie, buying land, build new production line, etc.

I think EPS is not important anymore as most companies will try to reduce profit by purchasing lands to avoid the hefty corporate tax.

Yesterday when the result was out, the selldown was due to not-so-good QR result. But later it announced special dividend, the price u turned.

How do you make up the 20% increase in windfall tax? Of course the corporate tax will also be reduced by 20% as the taxable profit will shrink 20%.

Summary of budget 2022:

Get money from
1) plantation profits and
2) companies that are making a lots of money

and spend on
1) area that will get most votes in coming election

Near 20% increase.

But the increase of windfall tax cannot be hidden.

Plantation will be worst. Kena increased windfall tax + corporate tax.

Everything in budget you can see the shadow of GE in July 2022. Everything seems to be tailored for the current gov to win in the coming election.

Monday how?

Increase of stamping fee + corporate tax.

Now we know why institutions have been selling. They seem to know the increase of windfall tax before being announced.
