<br />
Tapi yang menarik sekarang, bagi aku, bukan pasal Azilah atau siapa pembunuh dan yg mengupah pembunuh Altantulya.<br />
<br />
Yang menarik ialah , adakah Anuar Ibrahim berseteru dengan Azmin Ali (jemin). Adakah Anuar Ibrahim bakal menjadi PM seterusnya selepas Tun M, atau sekadar PM Tepi? Dan adakah rakyat diberi mandat baru untuk memilih PM dan kerajaan baru melalui pembubaran Parlimen dan PRU15?<br />
<br />
Dan yang paling terkesan, sejak semalam ialah pengumuman dividen ASB 2019, yang merupakan yang terendah dalam sejarah ASB (sejak 1990).Penumpanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08174474708342352870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800417034456036203.post-66862345497224752922016-10-07T17:26:00.000+08:002016-10-07T17:26:22.921+08:00Baju MerahAku memang tak minat langsung baju merah tak kiralah baju T atau kemeja. Warna pink lagi lah!!!<br />
<br />
Tapi baju Merah dan Kuning ni dah jadi pilihan intim masing-masing oleh Geng Jamal Baju Merah @ Jamal Jamban (selepas kes buat PC dalam jamban) dan Geng Bersih (Kuning).<br />
<br />
Yang best nya bila Kuning ada rancangan, Merah pun mula mencelah. Seronok jugak tengok kecuh-kecuh nie. Nie terbaru geng baju merah di dakwa buat provokasi semasa perlancaran flag-off konvoi bersih di Alor Setar.<br />

<br />
RM10 sehari<br />
RM3650 setahun....<br />
RM1,000,000 = 274 tahun.<br />
<br />
Jadi nak kena simpan RM10 sehari selama 274 tahun atau Menyimpang Lalu dan cuba lah memecahkan amanah atau membersihkan wang haram atau pengubahan wang haram atau ikut macam Mat-Mat Pengarah Air di Sabah.....<br />

Tapi yang paling menarik ialah pekerja asing di Malaysia di anggarkan sekitar 2.1 juta (PADI) dan hampir 4 juta lagi adalah PATI. Ini menjadikan jumlah nya lebih 6 juta. Ramai jugak pekerja asing ini menjalankan perniagaan seperti menjual pakaian, peniaga di pasar malam, membuat kerja kerja pengubahsuaian rumah hingga lah menjadi sub-kontrektor membersih bangunan dan jalan.<br />
<br />
Isu berbangkit sekarang ialah cadangan membawa masuk hampir 1.5 juta lagi warga Bangladesh ke Malaysia. Jika yang berada di Malaysia secara haram tidak di tangkap dan di hantar pulang, kemasukkan pekerja Bangladesh ini akan menjadikan jumlah pekerja asing di Malaysia melebihi 7.6 juta. Ini sudah hampir 25% dari keseluruhan rakyat Malaysia yang dianggarkan seramai 30 juta orang. 25% ini adalah jumlah yang amat besar.<br />
<br />
Maka sudah ada suara-suara yang mendesak kerajaan mengkaji semula cadangan kemasukkan pekerja warga asing dengan jumlah yang besar ini. Malah, kerajaan sepatutnya mensasarkan sifar pekerja asing tanpa izin melalui penguatkuasaan di sempadan serta lokasi pekerjaaan pekerja ini dan serterusnya menghantar mereka pulang. Kos menghantar mereka pulang harus lah di tanggong oleh para majikan yang menggaji mereka. Penghantaran pulang perlu di hantar segera bagi mengelakkan kos lain yang terpaksa di tanggong oleh kerajaan Malaysia sekiranya PATI ini di tangkap dan di tempatkan di pusat tahanan. Bayangan kos memberi makan sahaja boleh mencecah jutaan ringgit sehari sekiranya ada 200,000 PATI dalam kem tahanan dengan kos makan sehari hanya RM5. Semua ini adalah duit rakyat dan pembayar cukai.!!! Belum lagi kos tenaga kerja, penyelenggaraan, bekalan letrik dan air. <br />
<br />
Umum sedar bahawa dengan levi yang di kenakan oleh kerajaan pada kadar purata RM800/orang/tahun (belum kadar baru yang di cadangkan), kerajaan bakal memperolehi pendapatan sejumlah RM4,000,000,000 setahun untuk jumlah 5 juta pekerja asing dengan izin. Selain dari itu, para klinik dan hospital panel FOMEMA turut mendapat pulangan dari caj pemeriksaan kesihatan yang wajib bagi pekerja asing setiap kali hendak memperbaharui permit kerja masing-masing. Bayangkan jika cadangan kerajaan menaikkan levi hingga ke purata RM1500/orang/tahun yang membolehkan perolehan kerajaan meningkat kepada RM7,500,000,000 setahun.<br />
<br />
Tapi, bagaimana dengan kedudukan dan suasana sosio-ekonomi rakyat tempatan? Bagaimana pulak dengan gejala-gejala tidak sihat yang di bawa masuk bersama-sama pekerja asing ini? Bagaimana dengan pertembungan budaya? Malah sekarang ini pun sudah ada banyak kes jenayah melibatkan warga asing....sudah banyak penyakit baru yang timbul.<br />
<br />
Kita belum lagi memperkatakan warga negara asing yang menyamar sebagai pelajar di kolej dan universiti tempatan. Itu pun belum lagi di kira para GRO dan wanita-wanita asing yang bekerja di lubuk-lubuk maksiat.<br />
<br />
Kena fikir ini semua...<br />

Why Now?<i>From Energy & Environment : Oil Prices: What's Behind The Drop? Simple Economics by Clifford Krauss Updated Feb 3, 2016</i><br />
<br />
<i>An Abstract: </i><br />
<br />
This a complicated question, but it boils down to simple economics of supply and demand.<i> </i><br />
<br />
United States domestic production has nearly doubled over the last several years, pushing oil imports that need to find another home. Saudi, Nigerian and Algerian oil that once was sold in the United States is suddenly competing for Asian markets, and the producers are forced to drop prices. Canadian and Iraqi oil production and exports are rising year after year. Even the Russians with all their economic problems, manage to keep pumping.<br />
<br />
There are signs, however, that production is falling because of the drop in exploration investment.<br />
<br />
On demand side, the economies of Europe and developing countries are weak and vehicles are becoming more energy-efficient. So demand for fuel is lagging a bit.<br />
<br />
What happened to OPEC?<br />
<br />
Unwillingness of OPEC to intervene to stabilize markets that are widely viewed as oversupplied. Saudi Arabia, UAE and other gulf allies are refusing to cut production. And Iraq is actually pumping more and Iran expected to become a major exporter again.<br />
<br />
Is there conspiracy to bring the price of oil down?<br />
<br />
No evidence to support the conspiracy theories!!!!!<br />

Jawapan paling biasa dan mudah ialah, semua benda guna minyak...lori guna minyak, nak jana elektrik pun ada yang guna minyak. Jadi logik lah, bila minyak naik, harga barang pun naik.<br />
<br />
Tapi bila harga minyak turun, kenapa harga barang tak turun. Jawapan biasa aku ialah yang naik susah nak turun, yang turun senang nak naik.... isshhh betui ke?<br />
<br />
Aku pun dah keliru....ada yang kata, harga minyak naik sebab ada lebihan di pasaran. habis sapa yang control? Kata ada OPEC, apa depa buat?<br />

Itu aku tak heran terutama apabila harga minyak di tetapkan mengikut harga pasaran minyak sedunia.<br />
<br />
Yang aku heran nie ialah di sebalik harga minyak naik, di sebalik dok merungut harga minyak naik dan GST , aku tengok bermula cuti sekolah 1hb April nie, kereta berlambak atas jalan. Tadi nak pergi ke Kea Farm, dekat Brinchang, jalan jem. Lalu balik kat Brinchang dan Tanah Rata, aku tengok berduyun duyun orang dok check in hotel...kereta berlegar perlahan dek banyak sangat kereta atas jalan. Kedai makan penuh.....Starbuck kat Tanah Rata pun penuh...<br />
<br />
Adakah kenaikkan harga minyak dan keadaan orang ramai dan kereta2 nie menunjukkan kemakmuran atau orang kita memang suka merungut tanpa mencari jalan nak kurangkan beban...Penumpanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08174474708342352870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800417034456036203.post-74774503948155693542015-05-26T08:09:00.002+08:002015-05-26T08:09:42.631+08:00ROHINGYA 4Apa kesudahan nya dengan Rohingya? Mula-mula dulu, banyak negara termasuk Malaysia, Thailand dan Indonesia tak mahu terima....tetapi Nelayan dari Indonesia, Thailand dan Malaysia masih sudi membantu, setidak tidak nya memberikan bantuan makanan dan minuman.<br />
<br />
Sekarang keadaan dah berubah...negara2 ini sudi membantu...Turki dari jauh pun sanggup datang!!<br />
<br />
Maka di Malaysia timbul isu baru...nak tempatkan mereka-mereka ini di mana? Di Pulau Pinang? Kerajaan negeri tak mahu terlibat kerana mereka mempunyai sumber yang terhad dan juga lambakan pendatang sebegini memberi isyarat bahawa mereka di terima dengan tangan terbuka dan akan timbul lambakan seterusnya.<br />
<br />
Tapi, cadangan menggunakan kemudahan PLKN tu amat bernas.....mungkin itu boleh menjadi penyelesaian jangka pendek dan sederhana.... saringan tetap perlu di buat...penyakit! masalah sosial lain nya! penjenayah yang turut ambil kesempatan. Di kala Malaysia sendiri di penuhi dengan isu pekerja dan pendatang tanpa izin.....serta akan berulang kah Pulau Bidong kedua.!!!!<br />
<br />
Jadi, apa kesudahan nya???<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Why are so many Rohingya migrants stranded at sea?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="story-body__introduction">
The Rohingyas - a distinct Muslim ethnic group who are effectively stateless - have been fleeing Myanmar for decades. But a combination of factors means many are now stranded in rickety boats off the coasts of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia with dwindling supplies of food and water.</div>
Also on the boats are thousands of economic migrants from Bangladesh fleeing grinding poverty at home. <br />
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">
Why are the Rohingyas fleeing Myanmar?</h2>
While the Rohingyas say they are descendants of Arab traders who have been in the region for generations, Myanmar's governments say they are not a genuine ethnic group but are actually Bengali migrants. Successive Myanmar governments have been introducing <a class="story-body__link-external" href="http://brouk.org.uk/?page_id=2">policies to repress the Rohingya </a>since the 1970s, according to Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK (Brouk).<br />
<br />
<br />
<img alt="migration route of Rohingya and Bangladeshis" class="js-image-replace" height="478" src="http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/624/media/images/83026000/png/_83026360_migration_route_bangladesh_malaysia_624v3.png" width="624" /><br />
<br />
They are denied basic services and <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-26333580">their movements are severely restricted.</a> The repression of the Rohingyas has gradually intensified since the process of reforms introduced by President Thein Sein in 2011, Brouk says. In June and October 2012 there were<a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-18324614"> large scale attacks on Rohingyas</a> in Rakhine State following the gang rape of a Buddhist woman. <br />
In addition, the government in March revoked temporary registration certificates issued to hundreds of thousands of Rohingyas, meaning <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-31421179">they can no longer vote</a>.<br />
<div aria-hidden="true" class="bbccom_slot mpu-ad bbccom_standard_slot" id="bbccom_mpu_1_2_3">
<div class="bbccom_advert bbccom_display_none">
</div>
</div>
So inflammatory is the Rohingya issue that opposition leader <a class="story-body__link-external" href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/burmas-rohingya-muslims-aung-san-suu-kyis-blind-spot-8061619.html">Aung San Suu Kyi has been criticised for failing to raise it.</a><br />
In the past three years, more than 120,000 Rohingyas have boarded ships to flee abroad, according to the UN refugee agency. It says 25,000 migrants left Myanmar and Bangladesh in the first quarter of this year, about <a class="story-body__link-external" href="http://www.unhcr.org/554c8adf9.html">double the number</a> over the same period last year. Between 40-60% of the 25,000 are thought to originate from Myanmar's western state of Rakhine.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Why are stranded at the sea?</strong></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong><br />
As many as 8,000 migrants from Bangladesh and Myanmar are believed by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to be stranded at sea.<br />
The Thai government has recently begun to <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-32651410">crack down on smugglers</a> who have traditionally taken them to camps in southern Thailand and effectively held them ransom. As a result the smugglers are now reportedly abandoning them at sea. Not only are countries in the region unwilling to let them land, <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-32776647">fishermen are being told not to save them.</a><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Who are the Rohingyas</span></strong>?<br />
<ul class="story-body__unordered-list">
<li class="story-body__list-item">Rohingyas are a distinct, Muslim ethnic group mainly living in Myanmar</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Thought to be descended from Muslim traders who settled there more than 1,000 years ago</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">Also live in Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan </li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">In Myanmar, they are subjected to forced labour, have no land rights, and are heavily restricted</li>
<li class="story-body__list-item">In Bangladesh many are also desperately poor, with no documents or job prospects</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">
What is the attitude to Rohingyas among countries of the region? </h2>
"Extremely unwelcoming," says Chris Lewa of the Rohingya activist group Arakan Project. "Unlike European countries - who at least make an effort to stop North African migrants from drowning in the Mediterranean - Myanmar's neighbours are reluctant to provide any assistance.<br />
<br />
<strong>- Thailand:</strong> Its navy says that it has given aid to migrant boats in its waters and has indicated it may allow refugee camps on its shores. But it is turning boats away and does not want permanent settlers.<br />
<br />
<div class="story-body__list-item">
<strong>- Malaysia: </strong>This is the choice of destination for most Rohingya travellers because it is predominantly Muslim and short of unskilled labourers. But Malaysia has ordered its navy to repel them.</div>
<div class="story-body__list-item">
</div>
<div class="story-body__list-item">
<strong>- Bangladesh: </strong>Sometimes allows them to live in camps on its south-eastern border and sometimes sends them back to Myanmar. It is estimated there are currently about 200,000 Rohingyas living in refugee camps, many in squalid conditions. </div>
<div class="story-body__list-item">
</div>
<div class="story-body__list-item">
<strong>- Indonesia: </strong>Has made it clear they are not welcome, turning away boatloads of migrants. It has accepted those rescued by fishermen but has warned them not to rescue any more. A group of migrants who made it ashore in early May may be expelled, the government has warned.</div>
<div class="story-body__list-item">
</div>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">
Can the Rohingya problem be resolved?</h2>
"Not until or unless the international community puts pressure on Myanmar to improve the lives of the Rohingya community," Chris Lewa argues, "because ultimately it is only Burma who can solve the problem." <br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Why No One Wants The Rohingyas</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span> </div>
The spectacle of thousands of desperate Rohingya Muslim "boat people" being denied landfall in Southeast Asia has laid bare the region's religious and ethnic prejudices as well as its fears of being swamped by an influx of migrants.<br />
An <a href="http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/05/14/406747021/video-migrants-adrift-in-andaman-sea-after-thailand-turns-them-away">estimated 6,000 or more such migrants</a> are stranded at sea in Southeast Asia. Most of the people on the overcrowded and unseaworthy boats are thought to belong to the 1.3 million-strong Rohingya minority in Buddhist-majority Myanmar. Others are believed to be from Bangladesh.<br />
Reuters reports that while nearly 800 migrants on one boat were brought ashore Friday in Indonesia, other boats crammed full of people were turned away.<br />
Such refusals underline "the hardening of Southeast Asia governments' stance on the boatloads of Rohingya Muslims fleeing persecution in Myanmar," Reuters says. The Rohingya practice a blend of Sunni and Sufi Islam.<br />
<br />
<strong>'No Stomach' For Migrants</strong><br />
At best, the migrants have been received with resignation — at worst with contempt — even by the region's Muslim nations. As we've reported recently, <a href="http://www.npr.org/2015/05/11/405816943/human-traffickers-victimize-fleeing-muslims-in-myanmar">many are victims of human traffickers</a>.<br />
The Thai and Malaysian navies <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/may/14/malaysia-turns-back-migrant-boat-with-more-than-500-aboard">have both turned away refugee boats</a> in recent days. Indonesia has taken in some migrants but is now refusing to accept them.<br />
Predominantly Buddhist Thailand has been battling an Islamist insurgency in its south for decades and has "no stomach" for bringing in more Muslims, says Lex Rieffel, a nonresident senior fellow and expert on Southeast Asia at the Brookings Institution<br />
<br />
In any case, the country has a long history of dealing with unwanted migrants fleeing conflict in Cambodia and has no desire to repeat that, Rieffel says.<br />
"If they break the law and land in Thailand, how can we take care of them?" Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-05-14/southeast-asian-nations-turn-away-rohingya-boats-as-crisis-grows">told reporters Thursday</a>. "Where will the budget come from? That money will need to come from Thai people's taxes, right?"<br />
For <a href="http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/05/12/406193915/malaysia-says-it-will-turn-back-migrant-boats">Indonesia and Malaysia</a>, both Muslim-majority countries, the issue is less clear-cut, Rieffel says, but they are also interested in avoiding the appearance that they are opening the gates.<br />
"We will try to prevent them from entering our territory, otherwise it will create social issues," Reuters quotes Indonesia's military chief Gen. Moeldoko as telling reporters. "If we open up access, there will be an exodus here."<br />
"What do you expect us to do?" Malaysian Deputy Home Minister Wan Junaidi Jafaar was quoted by <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/may/14/malaysia-turns-back-migrant-boat-with-more-than-500-aboard">The Guardian</a> as saying. "We have been very nice to the people who broke into our border. We have treated them humanely, but they cannot be flooding our shores like this."<br />
<br />
Michael Buehler, a lecturer in comparative politics at the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London, points out that Indonesia has taken in several hundred Rohingya migrants in Aceh Province. Even so, Indonesia — like Thailand and Malaysia — also fears "an uncontrolled influx."<br />
<br />
<strong>'A Horrible Mess'</strong><br />
Australia, which <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/mar/18/asylum-seekers-video-australians-towing-them-back-towards-indonesia">has dealt with its own influx of economic migrants</a> fleeing Indonesia, says it is providing millions of dollars in urgent humanitarian aid to help cope with the problem.<br />
"There are no easy answers on any aspect of this horrible mess," Rieffel says.<br />
The United States, for its part, has called on regional governments to work together to save lives, but State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke stresses: "This is a regional issue. It needs a regional solution in short order."<br />
<br />
<strong><em>Comment by David Kimball</em></strong><br />
The article states "State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke stresses: "This is a regional issue. It needs a regional solution in short order.""<br />
WRONG. The flowing of thousands of refugees and/or undocumented immigrants is a Global Issue. It is a primary issue in the Mediterranean, it is a primary issue in Southeast Asia, and it is a primary issue in the United States as well as Central and South America. This is a Global Issue and Global Issues can only be resolved with Global Solutions.<br />
Unless the world comes to grips of what happens on these transnational transgressions, it will be a global economic factor that, like an untreated sore, will fester and become a major injury. We in the US need to address the problem along with all these other nations. If it is just left to regions, as the US State Department is recommending, it will continue to be unaddresed - just as it continues to be unaddresed here in the US.<br />
When will the US realize that Global problems require Global solutions - not regional?<br />
<br />
<em><strong>Reply by LarryL1970 to David Kimball</strong></em><br />
What are "global solutions" in this scenario? Certainly you don't suggest nations open their borders and allow unrestricted immigration? The math simply won't work and nations practicing that policy would soon be overwhelmed by the economic and social burdens. How do we find "global solutions' for entire continents where corruption, civil war, climate change, secular violence, religious strife, unchecked disease, and widespread illiteracy offer such formidable barriers to success? Who pays the bills?<br />

<h4>
International Financial Centre to Rival Asia’s Best</h4>

<img alt="trx.png" src="http://www.1mdb.com.my/sites/default/files/trx.png" /><br />
In line with the Economic Transformation Programme’s identification
of the financial sector and Greater KL as key sources of growth towards a
high income nation, 1MDB officially launched the Tun Razak Exchange
(TRX) on 30 July 2012.<br />
1MDB acts as the master developer for the 70-acre area in Imbi fronting Jalan Tun Razak.<br />
TRX will encourage innovation and propel growth by creating a
strategic clustering of global talents, world-class multinationals and
complementary lifestyle amenities in a highly connected location with
state-of-the-art infrastructure and world-class sustainability
standards.<br />
“The tax and other incentives for Tun Razak Exchange (TRX)-status companies tabled at Budget 2013 are great steps taken to <b>attract major international financial institutions</b> into the country, according to industry players.<br />
[Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak] launched the TRX with a <b>gross development value of RM26bil</b> as an initiative to promote Malaysia as an <b>international financial hub and to attract foreign direct investment</b>.<br />
TRX will provide <b>new investment opportunities</b> by connecting the business community with the global market.<br />
TRX is expected to attract <b>250 international financial services companies</b> and offer <b>40,000 knowledge and skilled job opportunities</b>.<br />
Property consultancy C.H. Williams Talhar & Wong said the TRX
“could create new demand for at least 6 million sq ft of new office
space, which will buoy the office property sector.”<br />
Aberdeen Islamic Asset Management CEO Abdul Jalil Abdul Rasheed said
the "tax exemptions… underscored the forward-thinking approach on the
part of the Government to position Malaysia as a central investment; and
remain a vibrant and competitive financial hub in the years to come.”<br />

KUALA
PILAH, March 7 (Bernama) -- The 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) has
received a clean audit report (unqualified) for its audited financial
statements for the year 2010-2014 by the Companies Commission of
Malaysia (CCM).<br />
Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister Datuk Seri
Hasan Malek said until today, no reports of serious offenses such as
fraud and dishonesty were detected during the audit of 1MDB.<br />
It was an offense under the Companies Act 1965 if the auditor did not
report any serious offense to the CCM, which carries a jail term of
seven years or RM250,000 fine or both, he said in a statement here.<br />
Therefore, he said, any wrongdoing of 1MDB funds was merely an
allegation and had been refuted by related parties including 1MDB and
Petro Saudi Limited.<br />

<br />
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Malaysian state fund 1MDB
said it would explore asset sales and the sale of development
rights in prime property projects as it seeks to cut its debt -
a $11.6 billion burden that has weighed on the ringgit and the
country's sovereign credit rating.<br />
<span id="midArticle_5"></span>The plans are part of a strategic review led by new 1MDB
chief Arul Kanda as he attempts to make the fund more
transparent after years of controversy over its debt, late
financial reports and late loan payments.<br />
<span id="midArticle_6"></span>
<span class="first-article-divide"></span>1MDB, the fund whose advisory board is chaired by Prime
Minister Najib Razak, said it recognised it had to reform its
debt-heavy capital structure and would not take on any more
projects or debt, helping the ringgit climb 1 percent against
the dollar on Wednesday.<br />
<span id="midArticle_7"></span>But the review did not contain any debt reduction targets
and few details about a long-delayed $3 billion IPO for its
power unit, Edra Energy, that is due this year.<br />
<span id="midArticle_8"></span>"The announcement is positive but in order to get a bigger
positive you need more clarity on the existing structure of debt
and what kind of liabilities are outstanding and the repayment
schedule in the next 12 months," said Michael Wan, an economist
with Credit Suisse in Singapore.<br />
<span id="midArticle_9"></span>
<span class="second-article-divide"></span>Arul, who took the helm last month, said the firm has not
set itself a debt reduction target, as more than three quarters
of its debt is long term.<br />
<span id="midArticle_10"></span>Just last week, 1MDB settled a 2 billion ringgit ($550
million) loan it owed to banks but financial sources have said
it needed a loan from Malaysia's second-richest man Ananda
Krishnan to do so.<br />
<span id="midArticle_11"></span>"Of the short-term debt maturity the 2 billion ringgit debt
was the biggest, which has now been paid," Arul told Reuters in
an interview.<br />
<span id="midArticle_12"></span>
<span class="third-article-divide"></span>Arul declined to comment on IPO plans for the fund's power
unit, which owns 15 power and desalination plants in five
countries. 1MDB said only that it planned to "monetise" the
asset this year, with some proceeds to go towards future growth
and the rest going towards repaying short-term debt.<br />
<span id="midArticle_13"></span>Some land assets it owns outside the capital may be sold
outright or partly sold through joint ventures, 1MDB said.<br />
<span id="midArticle_14"></span>But two projects in central Kuala Lumpur - the Tun Razak
Exchange which is being developed into a financial district and
Bandar Malaysia, a commercial and residential development - will
continue to be owned by the finance ministry.<br />
<span id="midArticle_15"></span>They will, however, now be run as standalone entities and in
addition to the sale of land development rights, the projects
could also enter into profit-sharing joint ventures, it said.<br />
<span id="midArticle_16"></span>Fitch Ratings, which has put Malaysia's A-minus credit
rating under review with a negative outlook, has said it has
concerns over Malaysia's fiscal position and contingent
liabilities such as those from 1MDB.

Tun
Razak Exchange (TRX), Kuala Lumpur’s upcoming international financial
district, announced today that it has signed Indonesia’s leading
property developer Mulia Group on board to develop its Signature Tower.<br />
This follows the signing of the Sale and Purchase agreement between
1MDB Real Estate Sdn Bhd (1MDB RE), the master developer of TRX, and the
Mulia Group for the development rights of the plot. The land
transaction is valued at RM665 million.<br />
<br />
1MDB RE Chief Executive Officer Dato’ Azmar Talib said, “We are
pleased to have the Mulia Group on board towards realising the potential
of the Tun Razak Exchange. This significant investment underscores
foreign investor confidence in Malaysia.”<br />
The Mulia Group, which has a leading market share for premium
commercial properties in Jakarta, developed, owns and manages seven
premier office buildings in Jakarta's central business district,
including the Wisma Mulia 1 and 2.<br />
<br />
Wisma Mulia 1 and 2 are ranked amongst Jakarta’s tallest and most
prestigious office buildings that together house key global and local
blue-chip companies in Indonesia. The Mulia group has also developed and
managed internationally renowned hotels, and residential and shopping
mall properties.<br />
<br />
Eka Tjandranegara, President Director and owner of the Mulia Group
said, “As one of the biggest commercial property developers in
Indonesia, we are excited to be embarking on this project to develop the
Signature Tower to become the new landmark of Kuala Lumpur city. Our
Mulia Group wishes to be an integral part of this iconic
state-of-the-art development not only for Malaysia but for the region
and beyond."<br />
<br />
“We see TRX’s potential to further develop the city’s role as a
financial capital, and the Tun Razak Exchange aids our growth and
expansion plans. I am committed to personally seeing this project
through, drawing from our vast experience.”<br />
<br />
The Mulia Group’s properties also include their award-winning Hotel
Mulia Bali which essentially comprises of The Mulia, Mulia Resort &
Villas in Nusa Dua, Bali. In the past two years, the resorts have been
awarded six prestigious awards by Condé Nast, with the latest award
placing Mulia Bali as the #1 Beach Resort in the World.<br />
<br />
The landmark Signature Tower building will be a highly visible focal
point for TRX, targeted to be the best international business address in
Kuala Lumpur. As it will be TRX's tallest building and have its
largest floor plates, the tower is poised to be a Prime Grade A office
space in Kuala Lumpur.<br />
Mulia Group now joins the list of investors such as Lend Lease
International, a global property and infrastructure group developing the
RM8 billion Lifestyle Quarter; and Veolia Water Technologies, whose
water management technology will halve potable water use in TRX.<br />
<br />
TRX is investing significantly in its infrastructure to create a
truly accessible world-class financial hub. Tenants are expected to
enjoy unrivalled connectivity to the city center and the rest of Greater
KL, being a few steps away from the largest integrated underground MRT
interchange station.<br />
The MRT will connect TRX to the upcoming High Speed Rail terminus
station at Bandar Malaysia, linking TRX to Singapore’s financial center.<br />
<br />
TRX will also have direct link to key roads and major highways such
as SMART, MEX, Jalan Tun Razak and Jalan Sultan Ismail. It is working
with Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur in uplifting the Imbi area, by
upgrading surrounding streetscapes and constructing a pedestrian avenue
that connects TRX with the Bukit Bintang shopping district.<br />

Minister says his country is unwilling to accept boatloads of people fleeing poverty and persecution in Bangladesh and Burma.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;"><a class=" u-underline" data-component="auto-linked-tag" data-link-name="auto-linked-tag" href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/malaysia">Malaysia</a></span>
said on Wednesday it would no longer accept new arrivals of ethnic
minority Rohingya fleeing persecution in Burma, as the UN refugee agency
expressed surprise that south-east Asian nations were now turning back
boats.<br />
Up to 8,000 impoverished Bangladeshi migrants and Rohingya asylum
seekers are still believed to be stranded at sea close to Malaysia and <a class=" u-underline" data-component="auto-linked-tag" data-link-name="auto-linked-tag" href="http://www.theguardian.com/world/indonesia">Indonesia</a>.<br />
Nearly 2,000 were rescued from abandoned people-smuggling boats in the two countries at the weekend.<br />
<br />
<br />
One vessel that reached Indonesian waters early on Monday was turned
away by the country’s navy after being given supplies and directions to
Malaysia.<br />
Malaysia’s deputy home minister, Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar, however,
said his country would use tough measures, including turning back
asylum-seeker boats and deportation in order to send the “right
message”.<br />
“We don’t want them to come here,” the deputy minister said. His ministry oversees the police and immigration agencies.<br />
“We are not prepared to accept that number coming into our shores and
those people who are already in, we are sending them home anyway.<br />
“I would like them to be turned back and ask them to go back to their own country. We cannot tell them we are welcoming them.”<br />

Myanmar Rohingya migrants 'begging for help' from boat</h1>
<div class="story-body__introduction">
A group of 350 migrants from Myanmar have told an activist by phone that they have been abandoned by their crew and need help.</div>
The migrants, including 50 women and 84 children, say they have had no food or water for three days.<br />
The
passengers were calling for help and crying down the phone, said Chris
Lewa of the Arakan Project which works with the Rohingya ethnic
minority.<br />
The migrants are not sure where they are and their boat is drifting.<br />
"They
say the boat is a Thai boat and the crew and captain are Thai. They
have been two months at sea. The day before yesterday crew and captain
abandoned the boat, arranged a boat for themselves, and they took parts
of the engine so it's not working," Ms Lewa told the BBC on Tuesday.<br />

Who Are the Rohingya and Why Are They Fleeing Myanmar?</h1>
<h1 class="article-title">
</h1>
<h1 class="article-title">
<span style="font-size: small;">Around 1,600 refugees from Myanmar and Bangladesh were <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/police-1-018-rohingyas-others-landed-illegally-malaysia-061908057.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rescued off the coast of Indonesia on Sunday and detained in Malaysia </a>on Monday.</span></h1>
<div dir="ltr">
Malaysian officials said Monday that 1,081 Bangladeshi and
Rohingya refugees landed on the country’s Langkawi Island. On Sunday,
600 <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/second-boat-carrying-around-400-migrants-rescued-off-031137307.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">“sad, tired and distressed”</a>
migrants were stranded off the coast of the Indonesian province of
Aceh. On Monday, another 400 were found aboard a ship, the BBC <a href="http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-32686328" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">reports</a>.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Hundreds of those people are believed to be Rohingya, the
ethnic Muslim minority in Myanmar who for decades have faced
discrimination and persecution in the majority-Buddhist country. The
government of Myanmar considers the country’s approximately 1.33 million
Rohingya illegal settlers, and the United Nations classifies them as <a href="http://www.amnesty.org.au/refugees/comments/35290/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">one of the most persecuted refugee groups in the world</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="" dir="ltr">
On her visit to the country earlier this year,
Yanghee Lee, the U.N. special rapporteur on human rights in Myanmar, saw
“no improvement” in the way the Rohingya were being treated. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
“The conditions in Muslim [internally displaced person]
camps are abysmal, and I received heartbreaking testimonies from
Rohingya people telling me they had only two options: stay and die or
leave by boat,” she <a href="http://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=15714&LangID=E#sthash.IBi85cOf.dpuf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">said</a> in a statement.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Malaysia and Indonesia are both majority-Muslim countries.<br />
<br />
Between 1826 and 1948, the Rohingya were brought
from India by the British during their colonial rule to work in Myanmar.
Since then, their origin has been disputed, with some believing they
hail from Bangladesh and others saying they came from Rakhine state in
southeastern Myanmar.
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
Myanmar’s president, Thein Sein, <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/burmas-thein-sein-says-military-will-always-have-a-special-place-in-government/2013/05/19/253c300e-c0d4-11e2-8bd8-2788030e6b44_story.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">denies there have been human rights abuses</a>
against the Rohingya, calling such reports “pure fabrication.” He also
denies that the Rohingya are a people and refers to them as “Bengalis.”
Calling the Rohingya “Bengali” is “a discriminatory, xenophobic way of
erroneously implying that Rohingya are illegal immigrants from
Bangladesh,” says the <a href="http://uscampaignforburma.org/about-burma/conflict-and-human-rights/rohingya-ethnic-cleansing.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">U.S. Campaign for Burma</a>,
a Washington-based nonprofit. Sein has called on the U.N. to facilitate
the deportation of the Rohingya to other countries, but the U.N. <a href="http://www.rfa.org/english/news/rohingya-07122012185242.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">rejected the proposal</a>.</div>
<br />
<div dir="ltr">
Last year, Myanmar unveiled a <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/09/30/us-myanmar-rohingya-idUSKCN0HP15T20140930" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">controversial plan</a>
offering Rohingya citizenship if they changed their ethnicity to
Bangladeshi in origin. For the Rohingya, calling themselves “Bengali”
implies they are illegally in the country, which most of them reject.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
In 1982, the Rohingya were stripped of their citizenship by
the government of Myanmar, then known as Burma. The Burma Citizenship
Law also restricted their access to education, services and freedom of
movement, and allowed property to be taken arbitrarily. More than <a href="http://www.hrw.org/news/2014/10/03/burma-government-plan-would-segregate-rohingya" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">140,000 Rohingya</a>
live in internally displaced persons camps around Sittwe, the capital
of Rakhine state, in southwest Myanmar, where they are entirely
dependent on international assistance, Human Rights Watch said in 2014.
More than 200,000 Rohingya refugees live in Bangladesh, according to <a href="https://www.refintl.org/where-we-work/asia/bangladesh" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Refugees International</a>. They are effectively stateless.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Advocates fear violence and discrimination against the
Rohingya is escalating, fueling a surge in treacherous boat journeys.
Last year, more than <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/02/world/asia/rise-in-bigotry-fuels-massacre-inside-myanmar.html?ref=todayspaper&_r=2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">40 Rohingya were massacred</a>
in the village of Du Chee Yar Tan by local men, the U.N. confirmed.
Among the findings were 10 severed heads in a water tank, including
those of children.</div>
Earlier this month, dozens of bodies were discovered in smugglers’ camps in Thailand. Many of the victims were <a href="http://www.unhcr.org/554a0ecf9.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">believed to be Rohingya</a>. <br />

<br />
<div class="story-body__introduction">
A major earthquake has struck eastern Nepal, near Mount Everest, two weeks after more than 8,000 died in a devastating quake.</div>
At least four people have been killed and an unknown number injured, according to aid agencies. <br />
The latest earthquake hit near the town of Namche Bazaar, near Mount Everest.<br />
The
US Geological Survey said it had a magnitude of 7.3. An earthquake on
25 April, centred in western Nepal, had a magnitude of 7.8.<br />
The latest tremor was also felt in northern India and Bangladesh.<br />
<br />

<h2 class="story-body__crosshead">
Analysis: Jonathan Amos, BBC News, Science Correspondent</h2>
By
any stretch, a magnitude-7.3 quake is a big one. It's not quite as big
as the quake on 25 April (7.8), which was 5.5 times more energetic, but
it's a major tremor nonetheless.<br />
Since 25 April, the immediate
analysis had suggested that more activity on the fault was possible
because the previous event had not ruptured all the way to the surface.
That meant some of the strain built up in the rocks over the years had
not all been released. <br />
One has to hope that the buildings which
were damaged last time have been felled in subsequent aftershocks, or
have been put out of bounds. This will limit the casualties this time.
But further landslides and avalanches in the mountainous terrain are a
persistent risk. <br />
And, of course, another big tremor does nothing for the frayed nerves of an already anxious population.<br />

<br />
Itu aku tak kisah lah sangat, aku adalah pendeposit dan kalu ikut giliran, aku mungkin hanya dapat menunaikan haji pada tahun 2023. Harap-harap dapat pegi sana lebih awal lagi...kalau ada rezeki.<br />
<br />
Tapi yang aku benar-benar kisah ialah ; kenapa harus ada penafian tak beli, lepas tu kata beli dan sekarang nak di jual atas nasihat PM. Tolak bab penafian tu, kalu kita beli barang, dan dapat jual dengan keuntungan tak sampai seminggu, itu makna nya perlaburan dan perniagaan yang baik. Keputusan membeli untuk tujuan pelaburan dan kemudian di jual dengan harga yang lebih tinggi dan menguntungkan, keputusan itu amat amat baik tapi jika di jual atas nasihat PM demi mengurangkan kontroversi....itu yang mencurigakan.<br />
<br />
Kata kawan-kawan aku, " a threat is an opportunity to others". Macam hal IMDB tu, kesulitan mencari dan menjana sumber bagi melangsaikan hutang atau faedah atas pinjaman itu adalah satu "threat" pada 1MDB tapi ianya peluang untuk TH membuat pelaburan dengan mengusulkan membeli tanah di satu lokasi yang strategik di TRX, yang di milikki oleh IMDB. So, kalu harga nya berpatutan dan TH di jangka memperolehi keuntungan dari pembelian ini, maka ianya satu pelaburan yang baik dan jelas tidak berisiko tinggi. Tapi jika tanah di beli, di simpan dan di pendam, maka ianya pembazirkan sumber... sumber yang terpendam!!. Dan jika tanah itu di beli dan kemudian di bangunkan, maka keputusan membangunkan tanah itu memerlukan satu kajian dari segi "feasibility" dan "profitability" nya. Di sini ada risiko nya....tinggi atau rendah nya risiko tu. Itu lah yang perlu di hadapi... Dalam perniagaan, semua nya ada risiko!!!!<br />
<br />
So, dah jual...maka harap untung dari segi jual beli saja lah...Penumpanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08174474708342352870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8800417034456036203.post-66588771694544737312015-05-09T13:03:00.001+08:002015-05-09T13:09:11.111+08:00Malaysia Economic Outlook 2015 : Executive Briefing Scotia Bank.<div data-canvas-width="81.5805" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 15px; left: 876.3px; text-align: center; top: 39.925px; transform: scaleX(1.07343);">

Malaysia's economic outlook is expected to deteriorate
significantly in 2015 following three years of robust growth, and
experts say it's not just due to crashing oil prices. <br />
Sharp currency depreciation and the introduction
of a goods & services tax (GST) are widely expected to drag 2015
gross domestic product (GDP) growth below 5 percent from an estimated
5.8 percent in 2014. <br />
The dramatic decline in crude is also playing a role for emerging Asia's only major energy exporting economy. <a class="inline_asset" data-nodeid="100274824" href="http://data.cnbc.com/quotes/lcocv1" target="_self">Brent's</a>
54 percent plunge over the past six months has noticeably hurt
Malaysia, where petroleum products and liquefied natural gas account for
14 percent of exports.<br />
<br />
Barclays recently reduced its 2015 GDP forecast to 4.5 percent from
5.5 percent following a similar downgrade by the World Bank to 4.7
percent, both well below the government's 5-6 percent growth forecast. <br />
Upbeat November trade data on Wednesday showed
Malaysia's trade surplus at a three-year high but failed to improve the
country's outlook. According to ANZ, the trade balance could potentially
be an "Achilles' heel" in 2015 due to pressure from lower oil prices.<br />
<br />
<b>Currency volatility</b><br />
<br />
The <a class="inline_quotes" data-gdsid="617993" data-inline-quote-symbol="MYR=" href="http://data.cnbc.com/quotes/MYR%3D" target="_self">Malaysian ringgit</a>
weakened to its lowest level against the U.S. dollar since July 2009
this week, chalking up losses of over 12 percent in the past six months.
The pair is currently trading around 3.5580, within striking distance
of 3.60 and not far from 3.70, a level not seen since the Asian
Financial Crisis.
<br />
"I don't think there's a lot of optimism or hope
for relief in the short-term. On a relative value basis, it looks
attractive on the short side," Todd Elmer, currency strategist at Citi,
told CNBC on Wednesday. <br />
Capital outflows on prospects of a U.S. interest
rate hike this year are weighing on the ringgit, according to experts.
With foreign reserves dropping from $134.9 billion in 2013 to $120.7
billion as of December, officials have requested that government-linked
companies scale back foreign investments in order to contain outflows,
Barclays noted.<br />
<br />
<div class="group-container ">
<b> Hello GST</b></div>
<div class="group-container ">
<b> </b>
<div class="group" itemprop="articleBody">
Prime Minister Razak is expected to introduce a GST tax of
6 percent in April, which could add 1.2 percentage points to headline
inflation and weigh on discretionary spending, according to Barclays. <br />
The tax also led the bank to lower its 2015
inflation forecast to 2.6 percent, from 3.8 percent - significantly
below the government's 3-4 percent forecast. <br />
Moreover, Barclays notes that concerns about the
government's 3 percent fiscal deficit target in 2015 have increased
despite proactive measures like the GST and deregulation of fuel prices.
The group believes the government may need to further reduce
expenditure to achieve its target.<br />

Reports that quasi sovereign wealth fund 1Malaysia Development
(1MDB) missed a payment of $560 million loan due at the end of December
for the second time added to Malaysia's woes.<br /> <br />
With Prime Minister Najib Razak chairing its
advisory board, the state investor firm was the latest catalyst for
worries over Malaysia's financial stability. The opposition party's
national publicity secretary said 1MDB's failure to repay the loan would
hurt the financial health of Maybank and RHB Bank, two of the country's
biggest banks and 1MDB's primary lenders, according to local media. <br />
"Some partial good news [in this matter] is that
if they are overseas assets, they can be repatriated back. It will reel
in a lot more ringgit so 1MDB can pay off the ringgit denominated
obligations," Vishnu Varathan, senior economist at Mizuho Bank, told
CNBC.<br />
<br />
"However, the dollar liabilities may become a huge issue so the
government may be under constraint as to how to dish out the now
constrained budget," he added. <br />

<br />
1) Kalau TH sanggup bayar harga begitu tinggi utk tanah kepunyaan IMDB, apa alasan Kem Kewangan jualnya pd harga begitu murah kpd IMDB dulu?<br />
<br />
Komen Netizen :<br />
" pelik tapi benar....IMDB ni modal sejuta je. Ingat dulu boleh dpt loan sebab dia beli tanah ni hutang dgn bank, jd tanah ni adalah collateral. tp sebenarnya tanah ni free from encumbrances. maknanya !MDB beli cash dari kerajaan. mcm mana pulak modal sejuta boleh buat loan 42 billion dah boleh beli tanah dan IPP ni cash? bank bg hutang tu xdak apa2 collateral ka? mcm mana pihak maybank boleh lulus?"<br />
<br />
"Inilah politik Malaysia bila dah berlaku baru nah heboh sebelum ni bila Rafizi tegur kat Parliment menteri semua nafi termasuk pengerusi LTH."<br />
<br />
"siasat urus niaga bukan hukum informer"<br />
<br />
" Its is nearly impossible to separate the arguments for investment and bailout: although the explanation given by Tabong Haji may be acceptable from a corporate perspective, said Kadir, "this must be read against the fact that in the past two months alone, almost RM3 billion has been spent to bail out IMDB from defaulting on its commitments to banks and also to meet its normal cash flow requirement"<br />
<br />
" Org kita cepat melatah, bila melatah depa cakap tak dak facts, ikut sedap mulut saja.<br />
<br />
"But in Mesia, based on record, 99% of rumours or melatah or mimpi or mengigau or speculation will end up to be true facts. Denial has been a good corporate game plan...and it works !"<br />
<br />
" Another word people speculate or melatah....you hv to prove him wrong not the other way round"<br />

<br />
1) Perlaksanaan GST yang dikatakan "zalim"<br />
2) Kenyataan demi kenyataan Menteri yang mengelirukan dan menyakitkan terutama yang hangat ialah kenyataan-kenyataan Maslan, Timbalan Menteri Kewangan.<br />
3) Hudud dan perselisihan PKR dengan PAS berkenaan isu itu<br />
4) IMDB yang tidak terjawab<br />
5) Syor menaikkan had umur pengeluaran EPF dari 55 kepada 60<br />
6) Pembelian tanah IMDB oleh TH.<br />
<br />
Banyak isu-isu itu menjadi modal pilihanraya di Rompin dan Permatang Pauh....namun begitu, parti yang sama masih menang dalam PRK tersebut walaupun majoriti mungkin kurang.<br />
<br />
Apakah isu-isu ini tidak besar implikasi nya terhadap para pengundi dan parti yang bertanding? Adakah isu itu hanya isu yang sengaja seronok di hangatkan dan di sensasikan oleh pihak pihak tertentu tetapi tiada kesan mendalam pada masyarakat umum?<br />
Adakah ada perkara dan benda lain yang boleh menenggelamkan isu yang begitu hangat.<br />
<br />
Aku tak mahu nak bercerita tentang gang Myvi tu. Hari ini mereka di dakwa dan di kenakan ikat jamin sebanyak RM9000. Sikit kan walau ada nyawa yang melayang berbanding dengan model sambilan dari Sabah yang buat tayangan payudara percuma yang kena jamin RM10,000.<br />

Yang menjadi marah nya ialah kenyataan konon nya seorang pompuan bernama Yana yang memberi kenyataan ahli nya tak berlumba, mereka di FMC ada kabel disebalik ada saksi dan rakaman CCTV yang menyatakan mereka dari FMC sebanyak 6 buah Myvi jelas berlumba....lagi marah apabila ada yang menyatakan bahawa mereka ini ada yang merupakan ahli UMNO....Yang lebih dikesalkan Tiga Nyawa Terkorban dan ada jugak posting yang di katakan dari ahli kelab ini yang mengugut untuk mencari dan membunuh saksi kejadian malah turut mengugut mereka-mereka yang mengutuk kelab FMC nie...<br />
<br />
Ternyata ramai yang benar-benar geram dengan apa yang berlaku...Yana yang dikatakan jurucakap FMC nie memang menjadi pompuan yang paling di hina dan di benci oleh masyarakat Netizen.<br />
<br />
Menteri Dalam Negeri memberi jaminan untuk memastikan individu yang menjadi punca kematian tiga beranak dalam kemalangan itu di hadap ke muka pengadilan. "jangan ingat ada orang dalam, individu terbabit boleh terlepas. Polis tidak akan menutup kes ini dengan mudah walaupun terdapat keterangan yang bercanggah daripada suspek dan saksi utama"<br />
<br />
KITA TUNGGU DAN LIHAT KESUDAHAN NYA.<br />
<br />
<b>FMC Berjanji Bantu Dua Anak Yatim Piatu Sehingga Berusia 18 tahun</b> : Sumber M.Star via SuriaFM<br />
Kelab ini berdaftar kah? Adakah itu perjanjian yang antara lain mengakui bahawa ada setan-setan bertahta dalam FMC?<br />
<br />
Komen Netizen :<br />
1) Janji Mesti Ditepati...Ini soal kehidupan anak-anak mangsa<br />
2) Jangansembang je...sudah<br />
3) Boleh pcye ke admin, dgn club fmc tu.<br />
4) Byk dana FMC . Tapi UMNO, Pemimpin / Ahli FMC pun meningkat juga..Ketua nya akan silih berganti..<br />
<br />
Nak tengok ada penjanjian yang sah antara FMC nie...takut hangat2 tahi ayam jer!<br />

Kalu rakyat Malaysia ada sekitar 29 juta, dan jika ada kira-kira 15 juta pengguna telefon pra-bayar maka 2/3 dari itu 10 juta adalah warga asing terutama yang bekerja di Malaysia. Mengikut apa yang aku faham (sori kalu tersilap), jika ada 3 juta warga negara asing yang bekerja di Malaysia, bermakna setiap dari mereka menggunakan sekurang-kurang nya 3 no telefon dan jika setiap telefon yang mereka guna itu jenis dual sim-card, maka mereka-mereka ini menggunakan sekurang-kurang nya 2 telefon....makmur kan Malaysia!!!<br />
<br />
Dari 15 juta pengguna kad pra-bayar ini, dan jika purata yang mereka bayar ialah RM30 sebulan, maka nilai pra-bayar ialah RM450,000,000. Banyak kosong tu....dan jika GST di kenakan atas nilai tersebut maka, kutipan GST 6% ialah RM27 juta sebulan. Setahun RM324 juta!!! Banyak tu. Itu baru dari 3 juta warga asing. Tapi heran lah kenapa Menteri kata kerajaan akan rugi RM800 juta??<br />
<br />
Cara aku menggira mungkin tak betui kut...aku bukan nya berCGPA 3.85. Yang musykil ialah dari mana dapat nya 2/3 pengguna itu warga asing dan kenapa isu kad pra-bayar ini tidak dapat diselesaikan sebelum perlaksanaan GST dulu?<br />
<br />
GST tak salah!! GST adalah cukai yang paling telus sebab kita pun tahu ramai yang menipu waktu buat penyata cukai untuk elak bayar atau tak mahu bayar langsung. Hal GST nie dah dimaklumkan sejak tahun lalu sebelum perlaksanaan nya pada 1hb April 2015 yang lalu. Patut nya tak adalah perkara yang berbangkit.<br />
<br />
Ada kawan aku cakap, kad-prabayar tak perlulah GST...student banyak guna perkhidmatan telefon pra-bayar. Kalu takut atau risau warga asing yang lebih dapat manafaat nya maka pihak syarikat telco boleh menaikkan tarif atau kadar panggilan atau mesej ke luar negara. Warga asing ini tentu banyak menghabiskan nilai pra-bayar mereka untuk telefon keluarga di kampung...tapi jangan lah melebih-lebih sangat kenaikkan tu..ada hati perut lah sikit.<br />
<br />
Lagi satu, bagi pengguna baru perkhidmatan pra-bayar, apabila mereka mendaftar, kenakanlah caj pendaftaran...terutama untuk warga asing.<br />
<br />
Ok...biar menteri SKMM, KDRM, Maslan dan Telco fikirkan hal nie....<br />

<br />
Many Malaysians look forward to enjoying their fruits of labour in
their golden years, so it is hardly surprising that a proposal by the
Employee’s Provident Fund (EPF) to raise the permissible age for members
to withdraw their retirement savings from 55 years currently to 60
years was met with a flurry of objections.<br />
While Malaysia’s minimum retirement age for the private sector has
been set at 60 since July 2013, many individuals are rejecting the idea
of raising the EPF full withdrawal age to the same age, likening it to
an infringement of contributors’ rights to their hard-earned money.<br />
However, many of these strong and hard responses do not take into
account EPF’s statistics that suggest that the majority of its
contributors prematurely run out of savings post-retirement.<br />
According to EPF, almost 70% of its members had less than RM50,000
upon retirement. Going by this baseline, even if they made do with just
RM800 a month (which is below the minimum wage in Peninsular Malaysia),
the amount will be wiped out in five years, with the average life
expectancy in Malaysia at 75 years.<br />
EPF has worked out that a member will need at least RM196,800 in
basic savings in order to be able to survive on a monthly income of
RM820 for another 20 years. This is being super conservation, because
everyone should aim to have enough to maintain their standard of living
post-employment.<br />
EPF claims that by raising the age requirements, members stand to
gain greater financial security and sustainability. We take a look at
the pros and cons that might follow if the proposal comes into effect:<br />
<br />
<h2>
<b>What do members stand to gain?</b></h2>
<strong>1. It offers guaranteed returns</strong><br />
Under Malaysian law, employees (11%) and their employers (12%) are
required to make monthly contributions from their income into the
employees’ respective EPF account.<br />
These monthly contributions are in turn invested in a number of approved financial instruments to generate income. They include <a href="http://www.kwsp.gov.my/portal/en/about-epf/overview-of-the-epf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Malaysian Government securities, money market instruments, loans and bonds, equity and property</a>.<br />
Dividends generated from these investments are paid annually into
your account. While dividend rates declared by the EPF is depending on
investment results and can vary from year-to-year, it guarantees a
minimum of 2.5% dividend per annum.<br />
The good news is, EPF has shown a yearly dividend return of over 6% on average in the last five years:<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The move to raise the EPF withdrawal age to 60 will give members the
advantage of making consistent returns for longer, as well as eliminates
the risk of negative returns (you can’t make losses with EPF). This is
especially beneficial for those with little or no prior investing
knowledge.<br />
<b>2. </b><b>It gives you compounded dividends </b><br />
As shown above, EPF offers compounded dividends, meaning that the
interest you earn each year is added to your principle. The result is
that your balance does not merely grow, it grows at an increasing rate.<br />
Let’s assume that you have RM50,000 in your EPF account at the
current age of retirement of 55. If the proposal to raise the full EPF
withdrawal age to 60 comes into effect, your EPF savings will increase
by about 33.8% or RM16,911in five years, with the average interest of 6%
per annum.<br />
Further, EPF dividends outstrip potential returns from other
investment options such as savings and fixed deposit accounts. The
highest fixed deposit interest rate currently offered in Malaysia is
4.28% compared to EPF’s average return of 6% per annum.<br />
<b>3. You reduce the risk of running out of money sooner </b><br />
The primary reason why people run out of money in retirement is they
spend too much in relative to the amount of financial assets they own.<br />
Without a stable income, any unexpected expenses such as medical
bills can cause significant damage to your finances. On top of that,
many also see retirement as a license to splurge and enjoy life to the
fullest.<br />
The common and unfortunate outcome from this is that many will face
the alarming possibility of running out of retirement money in old age.<br />
Raising the withdrawal age will not eliminate such possibilities, but
it will help reduce them and can promote better financial
sustainability.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<b>What do you stand to lose?</b></h2>
<strong>1. It reduces your income-generating abilities </strong><br />
Taking your EPF savings and investing it can be a profitable move,
especially if you are putting it in an investment that gives you higher
yields.<br />
In 2014, EPF gave a dividend of 6.75%. If you plan to boost your EPF
savings, the investments you choose should provide a higher return.<br />
Some unit trust funds can potentially <a href="https://www.imoney.my/unit-trust-investments" target="_blank">generate up to 36% return per annum</a>, easily outstripping the returns that EPF savings offer.<br />
The downside is, these funds often fall into the high-risk category
and may not be suitable for retirees or those nearing retirement age,
due to their lower risk tolerance and investment timeline.<br />
<b>2. </b><b>You may need to keep your travel plans on hold</b><br />
One of the greatest perks about retiring is you now have all the time
to do the things you want, and that includes travelling. It is what
many people look forward to at this stage of their lives.<br />
Finally, your dreams about tasting wine in Italy or finding spirituality in India are coming true.<br />
EPF’s decision to raise the full withdrawal age could put a stopper to many a retiree’s dream to travel the world at age 55.<br />
Unfortunately, for older adults, time is not always your friend, as
deteriorating health often comes with ageing and a difference of five
years could make or break your travelling dreams. Many may not be able
to fully enjoy the fruits of their labour as a result.<br />
To date, the EPF chief executive officer Datuk Sharil Ridza Ridzuan
has announced plans to call for a public consultation for the matter.
According to his deputy for strategy, Tunku Alizakri Alias, there will
be a series of events to engage members over the proposal.<br />
Many members feel they should have a say in how the fund fulfils its
role, while others opine there should be higher dividends and more
options to withdraw from their EPF funds if needed.<br />
