90% less than rm3k, where u get that figure. I agree with no money find money. If your current company not paying u high enough, go somewhere else. If required, upgrade ur skill.

You don't tell me you wan high salary, no need to work, no need to pay tax, gomen sponsor everything? this kinda thing like doesn't exist in the world. If got tell me, i'll be the first to go.

So in conclusion, if any of you here have not yet registered yourself to be a voter, please do so in preparation for the next general election.

Do encourage your friends, family and colleagues to register themselves as voters as well.

Now it is officially free float without subsidy. Previously the framework has not been set when they launch the RON95. That means the petrol company can start using promotions on the RON97 to attract their customers.

I believe they did that once and every week, the SHell and Petronas opposite each other in USJ were selling petrol at 1 cent cheaper then each other until the gov stepped in and stopped them since they are giving offers on subsidised petrol.

Now I think they can start the price war again.

Price war is good, in the sense that when all subsidies are removed, the market determines the price of the product.

I briefly read this and here's a fact.

In Thailand, fuel prices are not subsidized. Folks there there have been living happily for a while without any subsidy all these while.

My point is that ... we have been so comfortable living in subsidy thus all these problems arise. If you are complaining about the gov, tell me where in the world the gov is corruption free ? Mamak teh tarik prices goes up coz he maintains the level of sugar in the drinks. Carbonated water manufacturers are not fault free as well. We have one of the highest content of sugar in our drinks in the world.

Compare the sugar content in a can of Coke in Japan, Korea, China, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia and you'll see.

I felt Malaysians should grow up and learn to be competitive. Once you feel you are competitive and you think Malaysia is not the place ... work elsewhere and they will pay you better and squeeze the living lights of you better as well. Honestly removal of subsidy is the way to go towards achieving better competitiveness. And I have been to countries where there's just too much subsidy - you really wish like you want to go back home to Malaysia.

I agree with that you said ... subsidies are something sooner or later have to remove one, it is not a gov obligation to give you money for petrol, sugar ...
But of course what a gov responsible is to increase our country's economy strength, and thus everyone become wealthier, if everyone pocket is not kosong, then inflation and removal of subsidies will affect us less ... if gov make public transport n city planning better, then we would less rely on petrol right?

My main point is ... removal of subsidies is not a wrong move. Just that they forgot to improve our economy strength and public transport b4 remove it.

hmm,only 5 cents also wanna kecoh ka?haiya..don't use car la like that..simple..it's x like 50 cent...

Idris Jala RIGHTLY pointed out;
Only 1 out of 11 working Malaysians pay income tax.
Out of a population of 28 million Malaysians, only 1 million pay income tax.
40% of the country's total revenue comes from the oil and gas industry.

and dont get the illusion that i make less money because i'm concerned about the poor.

every year i pay tax, and usually its my 1-2 months salary.

I'm concerned because i've been to a better country( perhaps the best country in the world), and i see how things can be better.  If you only go to msia, singapore, then of cos msia is better. At least got highway drive your ferrari.

i hope all the subsidies are gone, when it hit 2.70 roads were nice and clear and yet to hear anybody died from that period
