[QUOTE="loafer, post: 438648, member: 10508"] Sorry dude but there's no comparison made between China and Malaysia. All I said is I "WISHED" that we have the firing squad like China does. Also 50 odd years is a mighty long time to be still trying to get the first time right no? Let me get this straight. I'm NOT against the removal of subsidies. What I am against is when the savings from subsidy removals aren't put to good use. We've seen how politicians brag about how much money is being saved from subsidy removals but the very next day we see mega projects being announced. RM800mil for a parliament that we don't need? RM77mil for repairs on the current parliament that is still falling apart? RM800mil for a palace when the current one is still good. And the funniest thing is most analyst says this isn't even the final price for the palace! The thing is our gov is telling us that,"Hey! We're running out of money so we need to remove this and that, so bear with us ok?" and then they start spending all this money on things that aren't beneficial to anyone at all besides a select few. It's even funnier that Malaysia is an oil producer. Can anyone come up with a really good explanation to that? I sure as hell can't. I'm sure most of you work 9-5. How many of you wake up at 6am just so that you can get to work on time? All this can be avoided if the gov actually spent money to upgrade the public transportation system. If they don't know how then maybe a "lawatan sambil belajar" to Singapore will do. Provided they don't spend most of their time in the casino there. And if our gov is too proud to look to Singapore for help, maybe they can try South Korea who spent a fortune to upgrade their public transportation and it paid off. South Korea achieved independence in 1948, whereas Malaysia achieved it in 1957. 9 years difference and we're a world apart from South Korea. Grateful? You honestly have no idea the true meaning of being grateful. [/QUOTE]
