The many faces of reformasi. Part 2. Devil's advocate series no 24.

1. Sorry to say the PKR people don't know where to start to usher in economic reforms

2. How to know when you don't study and understand the matter . 

3. The bane is the pick -choose-winners economic strategy for the upward mobility of the Malays. 

4. Did you tell Robert Kuok, Quek Leng Chan, Jeffrey chia, Ananda Krishna etc , what to do? 

5. Did you tell Syed Mokhtar, Azman Hashim what to start with? 

6. In the main, these self made Malays were already successful when you decide to give them help 

7. Here's another issue, you help those who don't need help. 

8. It's success breeds success. 

9. It's a different matter with those picked and chosen. 

10. You midwifed them from birth to end 

11. The government is perpetuating the same business as usual methods. Maybe with improvements here and there 

12. Now you have bestinet, NexG, countless others and 50 chosen and picked you want to be IPOed. These are all beneficiaries of the pick and choose economic model 

13. Supported of course by the central command economic model people . 

14. Btw, who will evaluate the financial performance of the 50? 

15. Not Khazanah I hope because the 50 may get the fashion valet treatment. 

16. We have 2 bad creations here- the pick -choose-winners and central command structure 

17. I would start by doing away with these 2. 18. Because these 2 structures caused much corruption, I will carry out an account and lifestyle audit 

19. I don't want to see from here , upon retiring, people buy 15 to 20 million bungalows. 

20. I would also cause the building of a new jail to 'accommodate' these white collar criminals. 

21. The superstructure, the big kahuna enabling the 2 is the NEP . 

22. Accordingly, I will dismantle the NEP and it's successors. 

23. There will be no more economic grab, predation, giving of licenses and sweetheart contracts 

24. The question then, is Anwar balsy enough to carry out these revolutionary steps? 

25. He will be advised by PKR people to go slow as they want to make hay while it shines. 

26 . The PKR people and regrettably Anwar seem to ignore the negative impacts of big government 

27. I am concerned about 3 things. Runaway government spending, excessive regulation and reversed redistribution 

28 . Seems to me, every other day, as it were, Anwar seems to be doing income transfers. 

29. Populist but bad economic effects. 

30. Has anyone calculated how much he has spent as income transfers compared to one kleptocrat in chiefs BR1M? 

31 . I don't have the figures, but I suspect it's bigger. 

32 . This will translate into bigger total public debt. Say 1 .5 /1.6 trillion. Debt to GDP ratio of 65 to 70%. Deficit can remain unmoved? 

33. Hurrah! Belts off, pants down, dicks out, isn't life a scream? 

34. If some cabinet members and some MPs especially those from UMNO were on a plane, piloted by mat 'sarjan' Hassan , co-piloted by the pontian gnome crashes in a deep ravine . All reported dead. 

35. Who are saved? All the 34 million peoples of Malaysia.
