Badawi painted a very rosy picture of our economy. But I don't have this "feel good" feeling. In fact I felt really stressed because my wallet is getting "smaller" as everything has became more expensive.
This bloody old man is trying to confuse me with his statistics again?? Or is he trying to fool us??

Anyway, he said he is not lying because he quoted figures from local & foreign sources. He manipulated the figures to fool us & that I considered as lying. For eg. he quoted a foreign source as saying that we are the 8th most competitive country in the world in this ??? wtf...
Be God fearing, old man, and mind what you said & do in this world.

Ever since the latest economic number come out in the press - 7.3% for 4Q2007 - I've been trying very hard to collect & correlate all the relevant data from ALL the available sources, both government & international.

Somehow the figures just DON"T TALLY!

Most of the national numbers are just appeared magically without any strong co-relationships. In some cases where the co-relationships can be 'jigsawed' together the final numbers still DON'T MATCHED!

Same goes with the numbers available internationally. In fact after some fine-combing & 'deep-sea ' matching - only ONE FACT comes out - THE BN govt numbers, in fact most of them, ARE 'playing with statistics & words'!

Just like the TOTAL TRADE figure of RM1,109.67 Billion announced!

The only conclusion is that BN govt is out to fool Malaysian joe publics.

Most of the international economists that I'm associated with can only justify such 'number frauds' with the following;

1) poorly gathered economic data
2) incompetent trained statisticians with lousy technique
3) Forced to manufactured fictitious data or playing around with incoherent numbers

Guys - Malaysians are really & truly in DEEP****, economically.

Eve since Mahatir twisted the arms Dr Zeti in 2002's economic figures , most of us learned to read with fine-combs & suspicions any numbers come out from the BN govt.

The current sleepy head has either totally been conned by his deputies or just come out on top of the ART started by Mahatir.

BEWARE MALAYSIAN - be afraid & be very afraid - our children's future has been pawned. When we revert to be a net black oil importer by 2010 & the price of palm oil falls in the coming years OUR grandchildren's future will also be forsaken!

During China great leap forward in 60's , all collective farms report amazing yield. Some even report impossible yield, e.g. 15 tons per acres. And guess what is the outcome of the report? Due to the "amazing results", China EXPORT grains to other country.

When the truth reveal, 12-13 millions population already perish from famine.

Pak Lah,

To be honest we, the people are really gullible.

We were gullible to believe that you
- are a CLEAN person,
- be be TRANSPARENT,
- will LISTEN to us,
- will "work WITH me", and NOT "work FOR me"

That's why we have given you 91% majority. You have CHEATED us!!

After 4 years as PM, our country is terribly sick except for your family members and cronies.

Under such circumstances, even if we vote PAS, I am 99.99% sure, the country cannot be worse of than when you rule the nation.

~ CRIME rate increased!
~ CORRUPTION worse than during Mahathir's era.
~ RACIAL polarisation worsened
~ FDI reduced/ COMPETIVENESS dropped
~ ECONOMy STIFFLED
~ PROLIFERATION OF LITTLE NAPOLEANS


TIME TO CHANGE!!!!! FASTER THE BETTER for the FUTURE of the nation
