No worries bro bingo! I voted for opposition in 2008 in case you need to know. :)
From where I stand now, Najib deserves a chance. Anwar had his chance when handling economy. I think he made a mess in the Asian crisis leading to our currency devalued to-date! And chinese really had it tough when he was finance minister from my own experience. And the current manifesto is also not too promising to me again.
Even if opposition loses, to remain a vocal opposition, without the lies, is OK with me! We have always had weak opposition in Mahathir's time, leading to absolute power and thus to many corruptions!
Kenapa Malaysia suka sangat keluar new IPO.Lepas tu bangga dengan largest IPO la,itu la, ini la.Lepas tu menjadikan asset top 10 billionare bertambah,sebabnya new IPO berjaya menipu subscriber..Bila listing mesti bawah IPO price.Kenapa rakyat Malaysia tak buat pengajaran semua ni?Itu semua kes tahun lepas.Tahun ni pun ada lagi mangsa yg sedang dicari,umpamanya Malakoff listing....dah kurang sambutan,dilanjut pulak tarikh tamat permohonan.Lihat sahaja Astro,FGV berapa price sekarang?Lepas ni kita tengok la pulak Malakoff.Bank pun tak ambil kira track record past listing....peminjam rugi tak pa.Janji bank tetap untung.
Don't trust? Me too! But I have to make a decision come this election! And......and we can only HOPE its not the wrong one! :) I remain it is also within my right not to vote, in case some idiotic cybertroopers are only good at trying to catch others out! Hahaha
That's why mahathir is right. A hung parliament or weak Govt will lead to politicking further. And rakyat will face the possibility of being isolated. MP price will probably be between 15 -20mn per head then!
I think BN was handed the trump card in the sulu incident. Personally, I say it's BN's to lose now!
Poorest’ sultan sent Sulu followers to Sabah for better life
The Malaysian Insider – 5 hours agoBy Ida LimKUALA LUMPUR, March 8 — The self-styled Sultan of Sulu Jamalul Kiram III has declared himself as the “poorest” Ruler in the world, saying that he had consented to his brother leading a group of armed followers to move to Sabah in search of work and a better life.“I’m the poorest sultan in the world,” Jamalul told newswire Associated Press (AP) when interviewed in his tumble-down two-storey residence in a poor section of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines.The 74-year-old, who is one of nine claimants to the Sulu Sultanate, reportedly said that his sultanate’s lack of power to help his followers had sparked off their move into Sabah’s east coast over three weeks ago in what is seen as an intrusion by Malaysia and has resulted in deadly clashes with 52 Sulu militants and eight Malaysian policemen dead.His wife Fatima Celia said that Jamalul’s family is now in debt due to the costly expenses incurred when he campaigned to be a senator in 2007. He was supported by former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo but did not win the position.Jamalul was last year found to have kidney failure and had to go for dialysis, another costly burden which then caused his family to miss monthly payments for their house and almost had to give up the place if their friends had not assisted, Jamalul's wife reportedly said.Jamalul, who also has a heart condition, now spends most of his time in his bedroom — where there are two oxygen tanks — which also doubles up as an office.Yesterday, The Philippine Star reported that the Kiram clan had not intended to reclaim Sabah but wanted more money than the current RM5,300 in annual stipend paid to the Sulu Sultanate, arguing that the sum was not “even enough to pay rental for an apartment” in Manila.The news portal quoted Acting Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) Governor Mujiv Hataman, saying the message was relayed by “Princess” Jacel, the oldest daughter of Jamalul, in one of the backroom negotiations between the clan and Manila for a peaceful solution to the Lahad Datu standoff.“Hataman also emphasised that Princess Jacel told them they did not have plans to reclaim Sabah, and that they were only asking for a bigger payment because the current rate was not even enough to pay rental for an apartment,” the report said. The honorarium and ownership over the state was reported to be among the three issues raised by the sultanate with the Aquino administration before the Sabah standoff. The annual payment to the Kirams is distributed to all members of the family.Jamalul had insisted that Sabah belongs to the Sulu sultanate and that it had merely leased North Borneo in 1878 to the British North Borneo Company for an annual payment of 5,000 Malayan dollars then, which was increased to 5,300 Malayan dollars in 1903.Sabah, however, joined Malaya, Sarawak and Singapore to form Malaysia in 1963, after which Malaysia continued paying an annual stipend of RM5,300 to the Sulu sultanate on the basis of the sultanate ceding the Borneo state.
Yup, Najib deserves a chance. Anwar had already been given the chance but he screwed up. Interest rate was double digit rocket high when he was the Finance Minister. The nation was on the verge of bankruptcy with his doing. Our economy almost went bust. Never learned from this? U still want him to be the PM? I also voted for the opposition in the 2008 election but switching to BN this time round. U have to take the best of the two even though Najib has his weaknesses but Anwar is worst. So far the economy is well-managed. How much better do we expect from Anwar after what he had done to the economy when he was the Finance and DPM? To me it's just too risky...never n never...
if that sultan wanted to increase the rental rm5,300, he could write in instead of killing our M'sian forces.. holigoon!!! now they know M'sia dares to act, so he retraces,,show our colour to them.. dont think we are invisible.. we have submarines, we have powerful jet figheters, we have all good weapons... our PM was kind to give them a week to surrender peacefully & dont think we are toothless tiger or sleeping tiger,,, show them colour..
sulu sultan a liar, don't forget how our policemen die, they were not shot dead, they were tortured and brutally slashed ALIVE.
read back what this sulu sultan spoken, does he in anyway look "pity"? he will screw u right away given any chance, muslim brotherhood? don't fool by these terrorists

Fyi Anwar was once a leader of Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia and he was very aggressively closing chinese & indian schools.
Now you see how the free media published him as Malaysia Hero. Power of brainwashing =) Is he really a hero ? Has he really change after prisoning ? Time will tell and i'll vote him for a hope.
yeah, i am sad for the family to have to see their son/brother/husband/relative soldier murdered in such horrific way! I think Najib is right in no ceasefire and also asking for the sultan to be extradited for trials here! he deserves nothing less than to be hanged!
Do you think anwar not corrupted? ?????? For me if anwar not in pkr I will consider my vote to pkr, one more thing why anwar not somebody else, this guy keep spin everthing..... I never Trust this guy
latest investigation shown sulus in semporna already started accumulating foods since early fed, the leader of sulu intruder was here hosted meetings for the brutal attack!
what a fatal failure in msia intelligent agency! another example of wasting too much resources on politic fantasy
I almost fell of my seat watching PM self proclaim himself as Bapa Transformasi...I thought you are given the title once you have achieved the objective or have retired after achieving but to self proclaim?... This is what I turn to after many years not watching NTV and TV3.....
pls don't shoot me... pkr, their latest pledge, seems can create more chaos then good, example minimum wage at 1100, cheap car - can our road take that kind of load? can our economy sustain with that kind of expenses? lots of questions... yet, only thing for sure is more roti canai allegations, aren't msia wasted enough for such? sigh

Brother iafx, why CANNOT? will minimum create chaos in the country? How? A lot of countries had a minimum wage policy and are these countries rally in chaos? People enjoy a better standard of living will have chaos in the country when they are better paid???? haaa haa haaa. As it is, we are paying peanuts to our workers and with things becoming expensive with each passing day, will Malaysians SURVIVE??? So that means you support corruption by paying peanuts salary???
Cheaper cars, do you mean our country had less income from the high taxes on cars? Now, if there's practically no corruption, then can cheaper cars become a realty for all Malaysians and are those countries that had practically no taxes suffer chaos?????? So, too from what you wrote, you support CORRUPTION & CRONYISM to pay more for your cars?????? Period.
Almost all of Asian countries had practically no such unwarranted taxes, countries like Korea, Taian , Brunei , Thailand, etc & are these country in CHAOS????? In fact, it's the opposite is happening, this this.....these countries are prospering & their people enjoy a better standard of living and their economy grew by leaps and bounds....and we Malaysia is just the opposite. Where got CHAOS in these countries that you so proudly said & predicted??? Come to your senses. period!!!
This list can only grow longer. Still think they should be put in power!???
