To break the country, support the current cabinet, to make it worst ask them to fix it back

The success of a government is the success of its Cabinet. The Cabinet is actually managing the country and there is no one person managing a country especially in a democratic country like ours. This country is not a Kingdom which an absolute monarch rules everything.

This country is a Federation that was formed in February 1948 and it moved on to seize the independence from the British in 1957. When we achieved independence the Malay Rulers whom before that had the sole power to govern their individual states empowered the people to government themselves through a democratic system until today. The Malay rulers from then on remain as the Head of States and both the states and the Federal were turned into Constitutional Monarchy system.

At the Federal level the nine individual Malay Rulers takes turn to become the King for the Federation for five-year term. The Yang di Pertuan Agong and the other brother Rulers are equal in status at their individual states but he is the ‘first among equal’ at the Federation.

Yang di Pertuan Agong is the Head of the Federation and he constitutionally empowers the country to be managed by a Prime Minister and the cabinet chosen from the elected representatives in the House of Parliament. So in essence the country is managed by the Cabinet appointed by King and the fate and future of the nation rest on the capability and capacity of the Cabinet chosen from the elected representatives to govern the Federation.  

All the Cabinet members appointed by the King are equal and the Prime Minister is the ‘first' among equal among them. The Prime Minister and the cabinet members hold equal responsibility and accountability. This is the cardinal principal of how the cabinet is run alongside with their responsibilities and functions as severally accountable to all consequences of their decisions made in the weekly Cabinet meetings. Every decision that any one of the Ministers wants to do must be endorsed and validated by the sitting Cabinet. No individual Minister can do anything at their Ministries’ whim and fancies' without the validation from the sitting Cabinet.

I am revisiting this issue on quite regular basis as there are clear signs that Cabinet members of the day do not understand their functions as members of the cabinet when disturbing issues like 1MDB and the Felda disputes come to the fore. We have heard Muhyiddin questioning the goings on of 1MDB. In actuality he was questioning his own decision because he was in the cabinet meeting which took all official decisions on how 1MDB to be run.

1MDB which is fathered by the Cabinet has disgracefully failed. This issue has been loitering in the minds of most Malaysians for the past five years but none of the Cabinet members had raised even their small fingers to address all complains and grumbles of the people on the conduct and affairs of the debt-ridden 1MDB. 1MDB’s dubious activities have been in suspicions for more than four years now. It’s only in past weeks that a few of those in the Cabinet raised their concerns for their own irresponsible doings.

The Cabinet and the PM should now get together and decide the time of their departure from the government just like they collectively and severally decided to allow 1MDB to commit all wrong doings, if possible instantaneously.

It looks like if we want to break the nation, give that job to the current Cabinet members and they will break the nation into pieces and if we want to make it worst also give them the task to fix it back.

1MDB is still in it's infancy.Whether it will survive as a company due to it's AAA bad publicity is still yet to be seen.Anyway they are going to wind down the 1MDB,so we are not going to know how savvy they are.As a gang of robber barons,that is.

But what we do know is that FGV's share prices are going to the wolves.This is bound to happen sooner or later.With all these crony politicians being placed there for the buta gajis of their expired miserable political lives,by their political masters,hey,who can blame them.They are there to feed the other cronies of their political masters,and cronies of their political masters cronies.It is all like a chain reaction.What goes around comes around.

The people who put them there are to be blamed.Corruption is today a godsend heritage word in Malaysia.The only way is to send in the marines.But to send in the marines needed the OK by Barack,who so happens to be a golfing buddy of Jibby.So,it is a NONO.

If we look carefully at 1MDB ,TH,EPF ,PENSION FUND ,SOCSO FGV we will notice one in COMMON that is The Person has the absolute power to make Things Happen. If you have the answer all will be resolved matter of seconds.
It is very unfortunate that the one that hold the power do not have the basic criteria of effective and responsible leadership . He not only can not control the wife but instead take order from his wife , studying without getting any degree and promoted based on the strength and integrity of his father ...What do you expect from this type of leader ...1MDB is the real case macam perpatah melayu beruk diberi bunga yang salah mestilah orang yang beri bunga bukan beruk....He made all decision yet refused to answer simple question on financial status of 1MDB ....just make knows nothing.
The worst of all was he himself without knowledge and consent of the cabinet forced the tax payers to make good all he has committed for the loans that have been given to 1MDB .Now 1MDB insolvent because the assets available can not cover the liabilities where the usual solution will be to dissolve the company.We have no choice but to honour the guarentee he has made to pay the banks but before that we have to look at other avenues to minimise the impact on tax payers .The person who make country miserable should be penalised...remove him and take civil and criminal action to recover the money .The directors have full responsibility resulted massive losses to country .Investigate as Tan Sri Rahim Nor demanded today in STAR and also demanded by million of poor Malaysian .There are provision in Company Act that can put all past and present directors in Sungai Buluh .
TH scandals have been going on many2 years . Silver bird Roti case ,Massive losses on counter claims by two senior staffs improperly removed by TH ,and today IMDB land case .TH financial statements only tabled in parliment so contributors one and only one financing TH knows nothing .Contributors financing TH from day one know nothing the appointment of board and CEO ,Chairman what more of their salaries,allowance and their benifits which have never been made know to contributors. We heard CEO was paid rm85,000 per month was really excessive compared with his qualification and risk .TH made million of profit using contributors money yet the cost have gone up unreasonably .Dividends given to contributors are decided by board . To whom the board owe theri loyalty ...To The contributors who finance TH or to the person who appointed them on the board of TH that doesnt have one cent investment in TH .What is the way out....
Consider forming unlisted limited malay company with power lies in the members and board of directors .If goverment want to come in they must bring hard cash as capital.Contributors do not bring cash any more because they can convert their accumulated contributions as capital....This will take care of absolute power of appointing board ,chairman and ceo of TH....
If the losses suffered and damage done so massive at the expense of the public ..what choice we have....Retain him even without giving yellow card or remove him for good and recover everything what not belong to him....I follow basic principle ALL REWARD MUST COMMENSURATE WITH RISK ...If you failed there is risk ...But UMNO is different if failed risk absorbed by rakyat...

MALAYSIA HAS A SERIOUS BRAIN DRAIN OF THE ONLY GROUP OF PEOPLE TO SYRIA. THEY CAN EFFECTIVELY SOLVE ONCE AND FOR ALL THE WHAT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM THAT CANNOT BE SOLVED CONFRONTING THE COUNTRY. TALENT CORP SHOULD PERSUADE THESE MALAYSIANS TO RETURN FROM SYRIA TO TO APPLY THEIR EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE TO SERVE NATIONAL INTERESTS AND SPARE THE RAKYAAT FROM BEING ENSLAVED BY THE GST AND 1MDB THIEVES AND PLUNDERERS.
