“Am in full agreement with you and am sure your concerns will be duly noted by the powers that be,” the PKR vice-president said in a tweet on Monday (June 11).
She was responding to Twitter user Arif Kamarudzaman who asked about the rationality behind the plan of rebooting the national car instead of empowering existing public transportation to match those of developed nations.
“Please reconsider,” he tweeted.
Nurul Izzah had also retweeted a tweet by user TK Thiagarajah, who hoped the Government did not go down the national car path again.
“Let’s emphasise world class public transport! We really do not need a Proton 2!!!,” he said.
“Let’s emphasise world class public transport! We really do not need a Proton 2!!!,” he said.
First, he kowtim-ed HSR. Personally I suspect that it was arbitrarily done so, without international bilateral discussion, because of his well-known notorious dislike of cooperating with Sing.
The official reason given was to cut down unnecessary spending.
Then, in the immediate wake of that so-called prudent national austerity drive, he declared he wanted to build an island on Middle Rocks, as if that was necessary at this stage of the so-called austerity drive, and for what reason other than to frustrate Sing.
Explosively, he has just shown he hasn't changed in the slightest, declaring his old obsession with a national car when he had failed so abysmally with an earlier one, which sucked billions of the taxpayers' money.
National austerity drive my fCk-ing foot!
He also shows at the same he doesn't give two hoots about public transport, terminating MRT3 but in virtually the same breath talks about a new national car and a new island.
I am not too sure about Nurul's tweeted assurance that regarding the proposed national car, that complainants' concerns will be duly noted by the powers that be when our cabinet especially the new FM remains amazingly silent on subject matter like the very MCA he and his father condemned.
As usual. Not yet materialise, kaytee howling like a fucking bitch while say almost nothing bad about najib
ReplyDeleteWith Mahathir you cannot say "Not yet materialise" la you stupid fucking idiot. He already did decades ago what he is now trying to do again with the help of cocksuckers like you la...
DeleteOh please la. Whats with the imagery. U mean u dont suck?
DeleteWait till it materialise, then you talk to me. Meanwhile i wanna take a fucking nap
DeleteFrom economic sense,
ReplyDelete-public transport generally do not make money and hiring less workers.
-a large techy kilang provides a lot of job opportunities long term to locals ( unlike construction job which is cyclical and mostly hires foreign labourers).
It provides long term and continuous growth. Check out manufacturing countries such as Germany, France, the US, Singapore as well China.
So this is true now, but not when they first tried it?
DeleteC.F. prime directive!
DeleteDulu tak sampai standard & mental.
Mungkin sekarang sudah tiba masa untuk kecupaan lagi!
Wakakakaka… betul tak, ketuanan freak?
Of those countries you quoted, Germany, France, Singapore has an effective public transport network while US has it in their major financial hubs, and even China is going on building a rail transports spree.
DeleteSo what does that tells you? That we are going the opposite direction and still hope to catchup to them?
The 80's are back. We will still have financial scandals, but Mahathir style - perpetrators will get away with it and decades later (for those still alive) stroll back into power like nothing happened.
ReplyDeleteYes.....najib scandal is always good for the people. You are right man
DeleteYou should change your nick to everybody including you also sama2
Share share lah. Don't let UMNO be the perpetrators all the time. In a few decades UMNO can take over the scandals again.
DeleteLet's get one thing straight.
ReplyDeleteThe HSR 's projected ticket price was actually higher than a Budget airline ticket from Singapore to KL.
It is Fake News to call HSR public transport like other mass transit system. It is a premium product foe the well-off who are willing and able to pay a high price to travel at high speed in comfort.
Travel time savings benefit, reliability of service, safety and comfort creates additional value which people are willing to pay for.
DeleteIt is a choice. For discussion sake, a one way ticket by ERL from KL Sentral to KLIA is RM55.00 but you can take Grab/Uber/Taxi for double or treble the cost. Of course you can also take the bus.
Tourism? HSR can cross international borders - Kuala Lumpur to Singpore, to Asia, to Europe, in future. No? Drop it lah.. perhaps a national car project should be better eh? Can save money some more!
With HSR, I don't have to wait 2 hours in the airport for a 45 minutes trip to the other end.
DeleteYes, Yes, modern air travel is unpleasant and time wasting.
DeleteBut is the HSR the correct priority to spend RM 100,000,000,000 taxpayer guarantees ?
I have seen nothing which justifies it.
Can john and unknown set aside travelling expense 1k each a month together all the pas cheebyes to fund hsr?
DeleteWhy need to when its the Sinkies that will be paying for it? SGD$300 per month is sap sap sui for them when they can save that much more staying in KL and commuting to SG CBD.
DeleteBut john.....this is najib project....hadi awang ask you to support or else no virgin
DeleteI supports it because it will be Sinkies using it. So Hadi was correct but you can keep your 72 virgin choir boys including yourself.
Deletemahathir is old n no new idea, better retire now n let anwar take over.
ReplyDeleteWhen the National car project Proton was started, it gives justifications for cronies under bumiputera entrepreneurship to make easy money by either being selected as AP holders or as Proton car suppliers. This was also one of the ways, political parties like UMNO gets it's donations for political activities.
ReplyDeleteWith a new car Proton 2.0, the AP system can then be continued as a good justification instead of the worry of it being stopped suddenly and stopping the flow of donations to new political parties and cronies.
How much changes to current and potential new AP holders as well as to car spares suppliers is only known to certain select people within TDM group and they are all powerful lobbyists in PH.
That seems to be the only viable reasoning of TDM proposing a Proton 2.0 revival.
Proposal! Like i propose kaytee to cut hia kukuciao, can you prove to me if kaytee will surely cut his kukuciao
