'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.

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.

Johnson Should Suspend All Govt Deputy Chief Medical Officers Too Or Fails In His Duty
Their Ridiculous Stands Are In Line With Their Original Positions That Enough People To Be Sacrificed To Create Herd Immunity, And They are, Of Course, Not Among Those To Be Killed
By David Lang

Johnson Should Suspend All Govt Deputy Medical Officers Too Or Fails In His Duty!
The Deputy Medical Officers Who Hold Similar Views To Those Of Professor
Chris Whitty and Patrick Vallance should not be allowed to continue to
old sway over the government in the fight against the coronavirus as they
may be taking orders from or had been brain-washed by Professor Whitty.
Boris Johnson, perforce, should fire deputy chief medical officer
Jonathan Van Tam after insisting to stick to his old view that wearing a
mask wont't protect against Covid-19 virus. He lied!
How long Boris Johnson is going to wait before he acts decisively to deal
decisively with the Covid-19 - the most dangerous enemy England ever
faced since the German's Luftwaffe's scorched earth bombing of London in
World War2? Wait until the UK became another Italy, or wide-spread civil
disobedince occurred?!
The prime minister, perforce, should stop following all and every piece
of advice given by Professor Chris Whitty, his deputy Jonathan Van Tam,
and Sir Patrick Vallance, or whoever is known as government medical
officer--they all have the same mind set. All these people are a danger
to the British people's health due to their unethical and callous views,
and may tarnish the image of the Johnson administration due to their
stubborn position over the Coronavirus response.
Angela Epstein wrote in her premium Telegraph column, quote: 'Boris
Johnson's bunglingly British response to coronavirus is not good enough.'
Johnson has to act fast or he and by extension, England, will be
overwhelmed, soon. He should, perforce, listen more to his own aides such
as Dominic Cummings who are presumed loyal to him instead of listening to
those professor civil service mandarins who are fond of flexing their
powers and their loyalty doubtful.
If he cannot now dismiss them, at least suspend them for the duration of
the fight against Coronavirus; if they want to resign and threaten to
file fair dismissal suits - like what Sir Philip Rutnam did to Priti
Patel recently - so be it. Let them bring them on. Remember, dismiss all,
every last one of them, or the remaining ones may carry on to throw a
spanner into your works on the behalf of all of them (mandarins).
PM Boris Johnson, sir, you actually owe it to the British people to act
tough against these unscrupulous callous professors. The time is now or
never. With the huge majority in the Commons your party should (be able
to) do the right thing - without apologies to anyone whether the
opposition Labor party or the Civil Service mandarins. Checked.

PM Boris Johnson Should Fire Government Chief Medical Officer Or Fails In His Duty
Either Professor Chris Whitty is a callous man who doesn't care about people's lives or their suffering or he wants to sabotage Johnson's government! And don't spare another Civil service mandarin Chief Scientific Adviser Patrick Vallance. Both are never helpful in the efforst to contain the deadly coronavirus. They seem to want the virus to continue spreading judging by their advice to you so far
By David Lang

Johnson Should Fire The Two Mandarins Immediately Or Fails In His Duty!
The UK government has been lackluster about the COVID-9 virus from day
one.
The prime minister seemed clueless about the whole thing, so he took to
listening to the Chief Medical Officer of the government and in the
process free himself from public scrutiny over his strategy to deal with
the fast spreading Coronavirus, and if there is any criticisms or
questions about whether the government should act fast to impose social
distancing (the most effective way to prevent the spread of the disease),
he would simply allow his present Medical Officer and the professor of
Medical science to answer the questions.
Boris Johnson knows that the Chief Medical Officer is the chief mandarin
of the civil service mandarins who likes to think of himself as a
powerful man - as powerful as the prime minister, if you will. So he took
the easy way out, he allowed Professor Chris Whitty to have his way and
in the process endanger the British people.
How Johnson deals with the virus, the Chief Medical Officer decides!
Johnson also knows that to stop the UK from from becoming another Italy
he must limit the spreading of the disease - not increase it by
continuing to bring in more infected people from abroad. But the Chief
Medical Officer Chris Whitty backed by his fellow civil service mandarin
Chief Scientific Adviser Patrick Vallance, insisted air flights from
foreign counttries including the most heavily infected Italy must be
allowed to land in the UK! And he also advised Johnson the testing on
arrival at airports of foreign nationals won't make any difference to the
rate of infection! And the worst part was Johnson took his advice hook,
line, and sinker!
And the price which the British people are forced to pay is loss of
liberty to move around or even loss of lives and those of loved ones.
Apparently, Chris Whitty is a callous man who value human life or loss of
them - others' of course - as something unimportant to lose one's sleep
over. He even envisaged recently a scenario where a lot of people in the
UK (up to 20,000 or even 200,000) should be allowed to die in order save
the rest! He was talking about herd immunity where the lucky survovors
who would not need any treatment as they have recovered from the
Coronavirus and can't be infected again would be hailed as the new UK
citizens - minus the elderly, infirm or those with underlining health
problems. Thus, the Coronavirus problem in the UK automatically resolved,
according to his wish. Checked.
