Well said, congratulations on a clear concise overview of the current state of affairs in Bolehland, or perhapd a better name would be Bodohland?<BR/>The only path is down, economic ruin as soon as the oil & gas runs out in 10 to 15 years. No one seems be be concerned for the future of generations to come. The NEP coupled with egoistic, corrupt and greedy leaders are the primary causes of this malaise.

Theirs is one of assisting and I am to meet their rules and accept the risks of the business venture.<BR/><BR/>In Bolehland, the procedure to apply for a business depends on a few factors. Your ethnicity is the starting point - for some location or business activities one must have the right "skin tone". Then the application will not get far without the essential lubricants to enable the smooth turning of the ever slow cogs in the machinery.<BR/><BR/>Every each step is a barrier or a hoop one must overcome - in fact it can be easily overcome by applying more lubricants. This lubricants is getting more expensive and is making business setup a non-starter. This Bolehland have no concept of wellbeing for the country or the Rakyat and when I decided to move overseas I am called a traitor to the country.<BR/><BR/>I leave it to to the readers to decide who is the traitor to the country called Bolehland.<BR/><BR/>I believe, for some there is not much choice or economically viable but to operate a business illegally as some of the ferry operators are doing in Bolehland.<BR/><BR/>Blame must surely be aimed at the fundamental issues that created such situation in the first place. Of course it is far easier to find a scrape goat.<BR/><BR/>My condolences and sympathy to the decreased's family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-63890454011530824842007-10-17T11:50:00.000+08:002007-10-17T11:50:00.000+08:00the buck must stop at their level else these minis...the buck must stop at their level else these ministers will enjoy their fat perks without an iota of responsibilities. worst, they will spend more time in cahoots with the leeches to come out with more money leeching schemes such as RM4.6 billion PKA and E-kesihatan scandals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-59928196770259998652007-10-17T01:25:00.000+08:002007-10-17T01:25:00.000+08:00anon. of 12:39, I beg to disagree with you.

Lack of enforcement is one of the biggest problems in Malaysia, not only at sea, but also on the roads, and elswhere. Agencies do not ensure that public buildings are well built and properly maintained. Crimes are on the increase and an air of lawlessness pervades. If civil servants are not interested in doing their job, and are not going to be blamed for their misdeeds, then they better be thinned out to perhaps 10 or 20 % of their current numbers, as they simply 'makan gaji'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-72604025847557116172007-10-17T00:39:00.000+08:002007-10-17T00:39:00.000+08:00I do not think that it is fair for us to blame the...I do not think that it is fair for us to blame the authorities. We are a progressive country with more than 25 million people and more than 101 public services! We should charge the owners / operators of such scheduled public transportation services and jail them the minute they run foul of the law. Lives are at stake and jail sentences is the only way to deal with such transporters of death.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-23460266287853498242007-10-16T22:10:00.000+08:002007-10-16T22:10:00.000+08:00KT,Remember there was a big Hooha in late November...KT,<BR/>Remember there was a big Hooha in late November last year when a boy was killed during a collission between two Langkawi ferries ?<BR/>Nothing much has come out from it after the initial flurry of checks on ferry operators by the Marine Department.<BR/><BR/>This tragedy was preventable.
