Posted: 04 Jun 2012 08:12 PM PDT Folks I received the following in my email. First the invitation : Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Abdul Kadir dan Ahli-Ahli Majlis Tertinggi Parti IKATAN Bangsa Malaysia : Dengan segala hormatnya menjemput Cik/Encik/Tuan/Puan/Tan Sri/Puan Sri/Dato'/Datuk/Datin:- Ke Majlis Pelancaran Parti IKATAN Bangsa Malaysia Masa : 0xhb. xxx 2012 (Khamis), jam 0XXX Tempat : The #######, Seri ########, Selangor Darul Ehsan. Kod Pakaian : Pakaian Rasmi Mamak / Lounge Suit / Pakaian Kebangsaan / Batik Then here is a comment about this event by Pencinta Bangsa Melayu (the person who sent me the mail) "Apa ni, parti baru buat apa? Want to divide the Malays further? Don't you think the Malays are already well divided, so much so that the other side is laughing & clapping? To me, concerted effort should be made to UNITE the Malays instead of dividing them further. This effort of forming a new parti will hasten the " DEMISE" of the Malay community. In my opinion, efforts like this initiated by EX Politicians who are disgruntled & frustrated should NOT be supported, instead MUST be discouraged. Sdr, why can't the Malays unite? Lets together try to unite them. Don't have to depend on politicians only to do this 'cause they have their own agenda & interests to take care. We the civil Malay society should take the lead in realising this very difficult but NOT impossible task. For a start, the launching of this new so called political parti should be the launching of an NGO with the sole objective of bringing the Malays together. I'll give my full support for this. Thank you & may Allah SWT bless & help us to realise he above task. Wassalam." (Pencinta Bangsa MELAYU) OK. Here are my comments. Look at these three pictures. What do these three people have in common? a. they are / were / or will be leaders of political parties b. all of them once belonged to the same political party d. two of the three are Tamils e. two of them feel quite frustrated f. two of them are well known as 'ranggi' fellows with many lady friends g. one has had frequent appearances in the Court for criminal offenses g. one is respected by thinking people, two are respected by the unthinking For those of you who are attending, dont forget the dress code ok : Pakaian Rasmi Mamak / Lounge Suit / Pakaian Kebangsaan / Batik p.s. the Pakaian Rasmi Mamak is just a joke ok. Bergurau saja. Jangan marah macam nak padam ya. How on earth are we to take these guys seriously ? |
World Facing Biggest Economic Shock? Posted: 04 Jun 2012 07:05 AM PDT Former Hedge Funder's Fearful Forecast: We're Looking at 'The Biggest Economic Shock the World Has Ever Seen' & There's Nothing We Can Do to Stop ItFormer co-manager of the GLG Global Macro Fund Raoul Pal has joined the growing chorus of economists who believe the global economy is headed in the absolute wrong direction. What does the Goldman Sachs alumnus see on the horizon? Mr. Pal, who writes for The Global Macro Investor, a research publication intended only for larger institutions, hedge funds, and family offices, believes that a global banking collapse and massive defaults will bring about "the biggest economic shock the world has ever seen" — and there's nothing we can do to stop it. Well, that's pretty dire. Does he have anything to back up his claims? The above forecast was made on May 18th 2012 with Raoul Pal predicting a collapse within TWO DAYS and TWO WEEKS. Here is Bloomberg today : Growth Slowdown Seen for Third Year in U.S. Dodging a RecessionThe U.S. economy looks set to deliver a repeat performance in 2012: for the third straight year, it may suffer a swoon yet not slip into a recession. "I don't think the slowdown will be any more consequential than the past two years," said John Ryding, a former Federal Reserve researcher who is chief economist at RDQ Economics LLC in New York. "There are positives out there in the economy. We'll avoid a recession." Household balance sheets are in better shape, with indebtedness down about $100 billion in the first quarter, according to the New York Fed. Banks are more profitable: earnings have risen for 11 straight quarters, based on data compiled by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Even the housing market is reviving, with starts through the first four months of this year 24 percent higher than the comparable 2011 period. |
