The big word for US investors is relocating! For the next half year, we will see massive US factories heading the exit door from China! And for the next half year, we will get the figure! Whether we see jump in foreign investment or just mild one because it go to our neighbours! Vietnam is the most attractive right now! Thailand is another! Malaysia goes right up there because of the many adavantages! In fact Malaysia has all the advantages! But it all depend on Pakatan government! Are they focus enough or will we see another round of protectionist under Mahathir! Those who experience Mahathir rule will know, this old bugger always act smart but always come short because of his short measured, short sighted and pouring our oil wealth on useless misadventures just to satisfy his pool of cronies and relatives! In the end, we miss out big time while Thailand was laughing all the way! Thailand became Detroit of the east while Malaysia reduce to consuming goods! Because of protectionism of auto industry, we end up back to where we were! Thailand don't have national car but they have home grown parts producers who are thriving and don't need government assitance! In Malaysia, we have suppliers who can't even supply to Proton without affirmation action from government of the day! Sad! And now we are repeating the same mistake! Again we will lose out to Thailand in this new electrification revolution! Here we are again, the opportunity knocks on our door! Perfect timing for Pakatan! Let's see if Pakatan will submit to Mahathir senseless misadventure or finally grow some backbone and tackle this once in the lifetime opportunity with wisdom!

Somebody please knock some sense in Mahathir mind! We don't have to produce own homegrown electric national car! We just bring in investors to set up factories producing electric car parts! The profit margin on parts are way bigger than producing the whole thing! This is what South Korea are doing! They no longer want to produce the whole car, smartphone or electronics! Instead South Korea focus on producing parts! Even Tesla get their lithium batteries from LG! China gets their smartphones parts from Samsung!

We have myr1trillion debts. Look at Norway....see the difference with our great boastful govt.?

Norwegian sovereign state wealth fund, which is the world's largest, has reached the sum of USD 1 trillion.

The news was reported by the Norwegian Central Bank, which controls the capital.

This means that every citizen of the Norwegian population of 5.3 million people is worth almost USD 189,000. "I do not think anyone expected the fund to reach USD 1 trillion when the first transfer of oil revenues was made in May 1996, "Ingwe Slingstad, executive director of Norges Bank's investment department, said in a statement.

Norwegian Savings Fund aims to invest in the state's social system when one day the country's oil is exhausted. The government, which puts all the "black gold" revenue in the fund, can draw on it only the equivalent of the expected return on money, but not the hard capital.

Last year, the government first began to withdraw more money from the fund than investing in it. This was due to the sharp fall in the price of oil.

Norway is the largest oil producer in Western Europe.

The Norwegian State Pension Fund, as its official name, was founded in 1990 and invests primarily in shares (representing 65.1% of its portfolio at the end of the second quarter), but also in real estate and bonds.

With shares in nearly 9,000 companies, the fund owns 1.3% of global market capitalization and 2.3% of Europe's market capitalization.

Proton was very profitable in the beginning because early models were just rebadge from Mitsubishi! Hence supplier can cross sale their parts to mitshubishi! Then Mahathir got too smart for his own good and start completely new models! And those parts are not compatible with japan spec! Then vendors can only sell parts to Proton models! Very silly!

If Mahathir is truly smart, he just rebadge Nissan Leaf! Then suppliers can also sell those parts all over the world! And rebadge Tesla as well! You have plenty of supporting industry!
