The following stories may fire your imagination, pique your interest. Some say 1MDB is Malaysia's Sovereign Wealth fund; to others they asked what wealth fund when its total capitalization is just One million ringgit? But, then again, if you think you can look down on the pet idea of the Malaysian prime minister, think again. His idea has the potential of turning the now world famous - or shall we say, infamous - 1Malaysia Development Berhad into a giant corporation you can ever imagine - even bigger than Bill Gate's Microsoft! At least, it could be, if the original course is stayed. It was supposed to inspire Malaysians to think big besides advance growth, according to its slogans screaming out of giant bill boards throughout the country. 'Backed' by the finance ministry who owns it - which means money will never be the problem - it can only succeed. But..it didn't. It failed! That's why it may have piqued many people's curiosity. How can a company flush with cash and can borrow any amount (billions) anytime could fail? Well, this may be in line with your thinking. People have seen since its inception - I mean after its name was changed in 1999 from Trengganu Investment Authority (TIA) to the present - it hasn't done any business! I have used present tense deliberately. It hasn't done any business yet. I mean if you are in business you need to make profit or find ways to make profit. Or close shop. Oh, I had heard about their filings of tax returns and hiring of a couple of internationally known auditors to sign off on their balance sheets; but these concerned only the company's borrowings and interests to be paid. Two massive bonds were issued to the tune of $7 billions. To buy up power plants. Again I want to say if you are in business to make money even investing in independent Power Plants, it should be done with the view to making a profit. The decision may be long term or short term, it doesn't matter, it has to make money, or no deal. May be they have done the right thing. Maybe luck was not on their side. Still, the amount is staggering. I didn't know having or managing so much money can be a problem! But many - especially the Malays - have not given up hope yet. Yes, may be the durians are just ripening; may be they need time and may fall soon!

Malaysia's Vision 2020
By:David Lang
Malaysia is supposed to be on its way to becoming a developed nation, by the year 2020. Will she make it (in less than five years -tick-tuck, tick-tuck)? There is no doubt the year 2020 is coming whether the country is ready or not, and if that will be the only requirement then Malaysia will attain that developed nation status on schedule. There is a question, though, Will Malaysia, or Malaysians, for that matter, be ready for that status as far as their affluence, quality of life's concern? Currently Malaysia's GNI per capita stood at US$10060. According to the World Bank high income economies are those with GNI per capita of US$12,745. And until Malaysians earn much more to be there, the developed nation status may not be achieved even by the year 2020. The futility of declaring a country a high income country when it's not, achieves nothing. May be even counter-productive; it lulls the country into false sense of success and premature celebration. Don't forget China reportedly overtook Japan as the world's second largest economy, but in actual fact China's citizens' ca pita income is a fraction of the incomes of the Japanese who earn $37,000. Chinese incomes range from $13,000. China's gross domestic product, taken as a whole, may beat Japan's, but in term of quality of life, and GNI per capita income, the criteria for a developed nation status, China still has a lot of catching up to do. That's why China still qualifies as recipient of Japan's economic aid meant for developing countries. Comparing with the Chinese per capita domestic product, Malaysia is even worse off. Unless the government bucks up and rushes to create more wealth for its citizens, the Vision 2020 dream may remain just that ..a dream.

'MCA go home' vs 'Where was DAP 13 years ago?' at Jonker Walk
What?! Gan qualified his being there as a survey, not to protest? Let alone to lead the protest? Did Mr. Gan Tian Loo realize that the MCA protest carries more weight than DAP protest many times over. The state government, being UMNO-led government, considers the DAP as the opposition working hand-in-hand with PAS and PKR to oust UMNO from power, rescinding the directive on the request from DAP leaders will make the party even more popular. I thought, at first, here come the MCA, finally to do what it's supposed to do. Then the expected happened. He got cold feet. The reporter who covered the protest reported Gan was suddenly cautious . He was like ..."I'm here to lend my support to..the .. no, wait! I am not here to support the traders - but just to do a quick survey! But I am glad to be standing here with the protesters but reporters, please put it down in black and white I am not, I repeat, am not here as part of the protest. This is the reason the MCA was shunned, I mean has been shunned by the Chinese. They do not represent the Chinese anymore. They cannot get things done anymore unlike in the old days. Gan admitted his meeting with the chief minister was fruitless, but would keep trying. Keep trying for what? He should stop embarrassing the MCA and reducing its credibility further by continuing to beg despite being rebuffed earlier. Again, this proved that the Malaysian Chinese Association has really completely lost its usefulness. If a small matter like Jonker Walk closure was beyond its power then, that 's it.

Donald Trump Should Thank My Grandfather Too
President-elect Donald Trump should thank my grandfather who's the greatest medicine man ever lived (at least that's what I believe) for his victory - which early on looked so unlikely. If he doesn't want to thank me, I say OK, don't worry about it. It's part of my months' of work to ensure Obama's wish to uproot Christianity never comes true.
Although his days in the White House are coming to an end, the danger he poses is not over; he still have four more years if his stooge Hillary Clinton is elected on November 8. That's why I tried to help in small way I could by publishing a series of articles on why you shouldn't vote Hillary. I am not anti-Hillary, have never been. In fact, my heart went to her when she was savaged by Obama's MSNBC talk show hosts, such as Keith Olbermann, who could speak like a machine-gun and was very effective, in 2008, and he was on and on 24/7 why Obama - not Hillary - should be the nominee- and the rest as they say was history.
I sympathized with Hillary then and prayed for her win over Obama. But when Hillary accepted to be his secretary of state I saw her character changed 80 degrees. And coupled with her being a Democrat like Obama, and all Democrats seemed to sing the praise of the Obamacare - which Americans cursed and wanted it to disappear, I changed my mind. I know it won't happen if Hillary becomes president.
The thing that distressed me the most, however, was Hillary's promise to bring in 70,000 Syrian refugees per year which would make America reach a point of no return. She also promised to send American troops to fight along side the Islamic rebels against Assad forces. As the Russians are also bombing the rebels for sometime now, it's dangerous to be under their bombing runs. I doubt Hillary herself is blood-thirsty and wants to start a third world war. She may just be echoing Obama's plans for her. That's her fatal mistake. Being White who is Christian by birth even if she believes in Islam now, she shouldn't be part of a conspiracy to destroy Whites' society and supremacy, like Obama always boasted to his fellow African-Americans whenever he addressed them or when there were grumblings from them he neglected his own community.
I believed Obama was jealous of white Americans and wanted to destroy their wealth and along with it their supremacy - and make them driven before him like obedient workers, if not slaves.
Many Whites didn't fathom Obama despite their high education; they (I mean Democratic party leaders, all of them, like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton, for instance) took Obama's words as gospel truths. In short they are prepared to die for Obama. That's why I had to act, to remind the American people of their responsibility to reject Hillary Clinton. Failing which she will usher in one thousand years of "darkness" according to Chuck Norris and his wife.
Although Obama had caused a lot of damage to American society - white society - he didn't have time to toll the death knell yet. And thanks to our forefathers for that. Checked.
Thanks to my grandfather too! If it weren't for him I wouldn't be around - be born at all. And who knows Trump may not beat Hillary Clinton for the post (And darkness will envelop America for quote: "one thousand years!" said a husband and wife team at a press conference to denounce and oppose Obama's reelection 2012. Checked.
But I will keep it as a secret for now how I believe I made Trump win. I mean besides writing those articles round the clock - urging voters to reject Hillary - to whom I wish to apologize a thousand apologies. The power of my grandfather alone didn't win the presidency for Donald Trump. There were other forces which I won't reveal unless to or through Donald Trump's ears only. It's up to him to reveal to the world, or his family. Checked.
When I was three, I was afflicted with epilepsy which normally is incurable (both then and now). But thanks to my grandpa, I lived. Checked.
My mother said at first the family feared I would not make it. But after her father noticed worries written on everyone's face, he went missing - hiatus. When he came back he told everyone to stop worrying as he said he had found a cure. And a cure it was; cure as the operative word, for after that the disease troubled me no more.Checked.
Just imagine, epilepsy can be cured! Unbelievable. What's more, he didn't take months or years, to first wear down the disease to its weakest and then extinguish it. He just popped into the jungle, came back with the herbs, boiled and blessed them with his magic and then treated me - and presto! I was cured. And I believe my grandfather's magical power is in his blood which flowed on to me through his blood which is coursing through my veins now. I may also have zapped his power into my body or he zapped his power into my body when he cuddled me on his lap! Checked.
Some of you may laugh at my story; (laugh) as you wish, but I assure you all this is no laughing matter. Checked.
If I say I survived a ramming to my spinal cord by a one ton lorry, would you also laugh? Checked.
Now where were we? Oh, yeah, Donald Trump turned from property tycoon into the most powerful man of the planet. Checked.
It was a miracle that Donald Trump could pull if off; I say Donald Trump should also be grateful to miracles. Miracle: an event in the physical world that surpasses all known human and natural powers and is ascribed as a divine or supernatural cause. Checked.
I also believe I was saved by a miracle. Checked.
You see, even I fell seven feet to the ground and landed on a pile of scrapped woods with rusted nails protruding from them, and I happened to land on back, I still survived. There were many punctures on my back but no nail touched my spinal cord. A miracle! Checked.
