MALAYSIA BOLEH!!
The question and topic of the headline should read "it's either corruption or bankrupcy"
Every year the leakage amt thru corruption is approx rm26 billion and GST implemented will target a revenue of rm20+ billion.
Second question.....is the GST supposed to supplement the leakage??

Expect crime rate to soar when this happens.......they are planning ad hoc and implementing instantaneously these ideas.....they say 40 essential not GST applicable......maybe true but they did not mention not cutting the subsidy of the essentials.......
The real issues is not tackle and remedy but passed it on with another burdens to the rakyat. Then started to hookwinked and using scare tactics to entice the rakyat to believe what they did is for the benefits and caring for the rakyat.
Bullshit....................................just get lost if you can't managed the country and please don't use race and religious as a shield. Shame on you at the top, the palace and those religious/race NGO.
Malasyia does not have a very intelligent PM. 1. How did we get into this position in the first place to justify comparing with Greece? 2. If you know the position is so bad why spend on infra, MRT, defence, BR1M, bonuses, bloated civil service, foreign consultants, private jets for Rosy costing at least RM 100 BILLION ? 3. are you simply trying to justify GST so that your cronies will benefit at the expense of the rakyat?
This must be an act of desperation from the government to collect more tax.Such statement makes me feel uneasy.....better park my money somewhere else.
Najib beri kata dua kepada rakyat Malaysia. GST atau negara bankrupt.
Aik, sapa yang buat hutang negara bertambah. Rakyat ke?
1. Penyeleweng demi penyeleweng dana awam yang didedahkan oleh audit. Ketidaktelusan dalam membelanjakan wang rakyat oleh agensi2 kerajaan. Dalam erti kata lain perbelanjaan tidak berhemah seperti membeli teropong paling mahal di dunia dengan specs yang biasa2 saja. Malu kat negara luar kalau tahu neh beb.
2. Projek2 gajah putih, hitam, kelabu, semua warna cukup wujud kat negara neh dan bertambah dari tahun ke tahun. Kat situ menyebabkan dana wang terbazir begitu saja tanpa ada sesiapa pun dipertanggungjawabkan untuk membayar semula kerugian2 tersebut. Contohnya skandal PKFZ yang menyebabkan berbillion2 wang negara hangus begitu saja.
3. Kakitangan kerajaan yang banyak namun skop tugas yang tidak jelas. Agensi kerajaan yang bertindih tugas antara satu sama lain. Gaji nak kena bayar neh. Dalam bahasa mudahnya ialah tenaga kerja ramai tetapi bidang tugas sikit. So kat sini mewujudkan pembaziran dari segi tenaga kerja. Contoh macam Najib. Penasihat wanita ada, penasihat kebudayaan ada, penasihat kewangan pun ada. Berapa banyak penasihat yang Najib mahu? Sedangkan kita sudah ada kementerian2 yang khusus seperti kementerian kewangan, wanita dan etc2. Lantik lagi orang buat kerja yang serupa. Lepas tue lantik lagi duta2 khas ke sana ke mari. Macam Samy Vellu, Jamaluddin Jarjis. Tapi kerja apa? Kita pun taktau. Gaji jalan, kerja tak jalan, duit terbuang, rakyat tanggung. Tiap2 bulan. Kalau setahun dah berapa? Kalau 5 tahun dah berapa? Tak ke ini menyebabkan perbelanjaan negara meningkat? Ini la namanya meningkatkan perbelanjaan dan menambah beban hutang negara. Ada pernah fikir?
4. Kempen demi kempen yang 100% di bawah kerajaan. Contohnya ko nak kempen pasal merokok. Then ko akan lantik syarikat kroni. Projek2 neh bukan projek gajah putih atau gajah mampos. Projek2 neh jalan. Ada hasil. Tapi wang yang dibelanjakan terlalu mahal dan tidak setimpal dengan hasil yang ditunjukkan. Contoh kes macam portal / website harga barang tue. Dengan isu email 1Malaysia. Sudah2la tue. Jangan ditanya tentang perkembangan tue lagi. Agak2 kalau penyokong2 BN ada rasa malu, tolong la.. pandai2 la sorok muka sendiri kat mana2 tempat yang patut.
5. Projek demi projek untuk kroni2 sendiri. Projek jalan juga. Bukan gajah putih atau warna warni atau gajah mati. Projek jalan cuma mislead sikit dari matlamat asal. Contoh kes macam NFC. Projek jalan tapi untuk Shahrizat dan anak beranak dia je la. Kita neh dok tunggu2 la macam orang bangang nak beli lembu murah konon. Lembu tempatan konon. Nak dapatkan harga lembu dengan lebih rendah konon. Lebih berkualiti dengan harga mampu milik konon. Macam HARAM.
6. Projek2 rasuah. Ye, buat bumbung, runtuh. Pasal rasuah. Oke kerajaan dah bagi sekian2 peruntukkan untuk projek neh. Dana yang disalurkan mencukupi. Pe kata kita makan sikit. Alah rilex la, kita kan kawan2. Bak kata Zahrain setiausaha UMNO Bandar Tun Razak. Rasuah dalam agensi kerajaan bukan setakat bawah meja, atau atas meja, sekarang dengan meja2 sekali lebur. Punyalah dasat nak mampos. Itulah hakikatnya.
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has a stark choice of either increasing government revenue via the goods and services tax (GST) or burdening the country by borrowing more money.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said the implementation of GST was necessary as the country risked becoming bankrupt like Greece if it resorted to borrowing.
“We have to find additional sources of income and that’s why we have to implement the GST,” he said at a seminar on Strengthening the National Economy.
He said rating agency Moody’s Investors Service changed their outlook on Malaysia from neutral to positive just weeks after the GST was announced.
“This is because they know Malaysia was taking fiscal consolidation steps which are unpopular but necessary for the good of the country,” he said.
Najib lashed out at the Opposition for their mixed comments about whether they supported the GST and for clouding the issue with unfair arguments, including the high electricity bill of his official residence,
He pointed out Seri Perdana belonged to the people of Malaysia and he was occupying it temporarily just like his two predecessors.
“It has a function room. If a head of state comes, are we expected to dine in the dark?
“If the Chinese premier comes, should we use candlelight and say this is more romantic?” he quipped.
Najib said out of an entire workforce of 14 million, only 1.34 million paid income tax.
“That is just 10% who pay, and there are others who should pay but don’t,” he said.
He pointed out the definition of patriotism is fulfilling one’s responsibility to the country and this included paying taxes.
He added that the public’s expectations on the Government was always increasing, and more revenue is needed to meet these demands.
He said Malaysians cannot always depend on revenue from petroleum which will eventually run out.
Najib said the public’s fear that the GST would cause staggering price increases was unfounded.
He said 160 other countries have implemented the GST and from their experience there is only a slight increase in prices in the year of implementation.
“It is unlikely all these countries made a mistake by implementing the GST,” he said
