Remember Vision 2020

As we bid good bye to the year 2020,it is sad that the Vision 2020 dream is yet to be fulfilled. We were confident and optimistic that Malaysia will become a developed industrial country by the year 2020.
The year 2020 has come and gone, and we are still very much the same old Malaysia, an agricultural country. In fact much worse than before because we are now facing stiff competition in palm oil export from our close neighbour, Indonesia.
The only industry which we were once proud of, the EON Proton car assembly is also now controlled by a foreign country.
Our national carrier, Malaysia Airlines System (MAS) is now on the brink of bankruptcy, and the government is not going to bail it out this time around. But any party wishing to inject fund to rescue the airline has to meet the condition that the identity and image could not be charged,it must maintain the image of a Malaysian airline. This is obviously not possible.
The main concern of the people in Malaysia right now is the stability of our government, we are now having the weakest government in the entire Malayalan history. It is toeing the tight rope, going to lose its balance any moment. When that happens, the political scene will be very chaotic again.
Right now it is clueless as to improve the economy. The covid-19 pandemic is getting worse. The governmentis helpless to contain its spread. Our neighbors Thailand, Indonesia plus India are having anti government protests going on. Their people are fleeing to Malaysia to seek cheaper and affordable medical cares. They should be stopped but the government is not been able to handle it.
They are busy politicking!

Our country is broken

When the National Front (BN) government under Najib was happily emptying our federal treasury,the Malaysian citizens were dreamily going about their daily life.
As the national thieves became bolder and bolder,and did not even bother to hide their tracks, the people suddenly woke up and threw them out, Pakatan Harapan under Mahathir was voted in. We were hoping for a new breath of life to our nation.
But the happiness was short lived, just 22 months later the new government was overthrown through back door politics tricks. The new Prime Minister brought back the same group of people (BN politicians) into the just formed government called Perikatan Nasional (PN). (BN) to (PN), umm...close enough!
The political scene now is like children playing sea-saw in the playground. The current government has 114 seats, just 2 seats more the minimum 112 required. The opposition has 108 seats, all they need is to lure 4 frogs to jump over, they can dip the balance again. Isn't it fun?! What will happen to the economy of our country? Will any foreign investors to be stupid enough to come in with this unstable political situation?
Moreover, the covid-19 pandemic is ripping the world apart, Malaysia is not spared either. I am praying hard for my country. Please join me to pray for Malaysia !
