My humble opinion on the 2019 budget:

This is an overall business friendly budget for 2019, very well thought and pragmatic, as promised by Tun Dr M.

Now the direction is very clear, with development expenditure intact, while construction and housing sectors will be able to kick start soon after being in the valley for months.

The reduction of tax for SMI will be good for the economy and of course the effect will trigger down to the FBM small caps.

I guess no downgrading risks by Fitch and Moody especially with fuel subsidy rectified.

With the news of US-China trade war tapering, November onward will be good months for world stock market I guess and our stock market will rally to 1870 by year end 2018.

Good luck everybody. Cheers.

one surprising item, loan for property buying can be from p2p...this is interesting...does that mean it will steal bank housing loan business...what is the lending rate? or will p2p loan are those which bank reject, thus higher risk to p2p lender? if bank don't want to take risk, p2p take up the risk with higher return than bank's BR?

i though people in china just get fxck up by p2p?

IN Many developed countries, their ppl dun work whole life just to pay off housing loan. They rent. Nothing wrong with renting. When family grows, can upgrade easily. When empty nest, can rent smaller space. Some more landlord maintain tu property. No need pay quit rent, assessment semua tu... Our ppl mentality very different.

Main setbacks are totally no boosting on foreign investments to generate income for the country. So, ultimately will rely more on oil which depends very much on international price and taxes from the citizens.

Aiya, like that also need to crack your head?
You pay road tax, with that you claim back rm 360 for every car or motorcycle from designated agency follow eligibility for one year.

From that 'subsidy', you will pay pump price follow market price, it could be 2.80, 3.00, or 3.80

Surely you won't be paying 2.20 as what you are paying right now.......

Gov asked property and construction companies to reduce 10% property price but a lot of companies are already cut the property price like hell, some even refund cash to buyers but these 2 industries are still in trouble. if PH really want to help poor population, pls act like SG, build more affordable houses for lower income population. I think only 30% of the overall population are able to buy houses that cost more than RM400k. without encouraging foreign investment, MSIA won't be able to rebound so soon.

@relaks, in malaysia there is a stigma associated with renting. new govt needs to change this mindset.

Exactly what is on my mind. Those who's salary at the 5k to 7k range sure most jialat one. Only get to save 1k from extra EPF and health insurance. No Brim is good actually plus must focus to hardcore poor.

Good points are the one of's from Petronas to clear the cooperate tax owed, more companies finally get to claim back GST.
