“We saw our oil reserves as an unearned bounty that would provide the money for modernisation and technology.”
“The oil that was meant to spur our transition to a more humane, educated society has instead become a narcotic that provides economic quick fixes and hollow symbols such as the Petronas Towers
”However, the billions of ringgit earned from oil exports over the past three decades have been squandered by the government.”
“Our oil receipts, instead of being applied in the manner we planned upon the formation of Petronas, that is, according to its original developmental purpose, became a fund for the whims and fancy of whoever ran the country, without any accountability.”
“Malaysia
“Instead of helping eradicate poverty in the poorest states, our oil wealth came to be channeled into our political and politically-linked class,”
“Instead of being the patrimony of all Malaysians, and for our children, it is used as a giant slush fund that has propped up authoritarian rule, eroded constitutional democracy and corrupted our entire political and business elite.”
AND WHO SAID ALL THESE NASTY THINGS ABOUT US?

ReplyDeleteYOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE!
ReplyDeleteIN BOLEHLAND, WE HAVE SELF CLAIMED "THE CHOSEN SETTLERS" WHO WILL WHACK EVERYTHING IN THEIR WAY...LIKE THE HUNGRY LOCUSTS.
THE OIL ALLAH GIVES TO THE NATION IS TO SUBSTITUTE THE LESS BRAINY ONES OR, THEY WILL DIE OF HUNGER...SADLY, THESE CORRUPTED DICKHEADS BEHAVE LIKE THE COUPLE THAT SLAUGHTER THE GOOSE THAT LAY THE GOLDEN EGG!
Umno has stolen most of the money to enrich its cronies. Umno, give us back the money.
ReplyDeleteThe govt has squandered all the rakyat's money. The country is "pockai" or broke. So, to raise more funds for hanky panky projects, the federal govt is taxing those who have credit cards, implement GST to squeeze more money out of the poor rakyat already suffering from inflation. By next year, prices and tariffs will be raised for these and that.
ReplyDeleteYeah, while the rich cronies eat caviar and drink champagne and go for overseas trips, the rest of the rakyat will have to settle for nasi lemak and teh tarik which they are already doing.
All I have to say is this: Screw Umno and let's screw them big time come the next GE!
Zorro,
ReplyDelete1Malaysia will be bankrupt by the time GE13 arrives as our oil fields will be dried up and oil revenue all squandered. The corrupt 1UMNO elites and their cronies would have left 1Malaysia by then. The sad thing is the educated pendatangs would also have left the country and replaced by the new "rakyat" from Indonesia, Bangladesh, Philippines and Pakistan. Well, at least the 1UMNO racist members remaining behind this bankrupt country such as Ahmad Ismail will be very happy because he will then be called TUAN by the new rakyat.
I suppose if TDM and Utusan Malayu have their say, they would say that whoever says it is a traitor to his race, religion and country, if the person who says is a Bumi.If the person who says it is a non-Bumi, then they would have the police reports made against him, say that he is ungrateful and tell him to give up his citizenship. The SB will visit him, give him a few slaps and worst.
ReplyDeleteso how? are you gonna pack your bag and leave this land? are you gonna let your grand children or great grand children being abused,kill or raped at this motherless fuckin land? DON'T BE FUCKIN NAIVE UNCLE...
ReplyDeleteMe thinks he is only saying that because he is not getting a share of the spoils. If he had been one of them, he will be singing a different tune now. la la la...

Anon129am. I will stand and fight and in the process maybe die for a new malaysia. People who hide under anonymity usually hide in a hole when the going gets tough. My friend Hisahmuddin Rais calls people like you worms....always underground, in the dark. Come out for some fresh air and enjoy Malaysia, warts and all.
ReplyDeleteZorro being naive? Zorro packing his bags like what the rich Bumiputras are doing just because they get all the free hand-outs from this Government at the expense of the remaining majority of the rakyat?
ReplyDeleteZorro calling it 'sour grapes' just because he never have a share of the spoils? Gosh, the mentality coming form some readers is really astonishing. Is this what this Nation is aspiring about? Emigrate? Corrupted freebies? Let's show 'em the grand finale in the next GE.
