Malaysian investment in England (UK) varies every year, with significant investment in various sectors such as property, banking, and infrastructure so don't talk about only the UK helping Malaysia. Until the last few years, Malaysian companies such as Khazanah Nasional, Employees Provident Fund (EPF), and Sime Darby have invested billions of pounds in England. For example, EPF has large investments in the property sector, while Khazanah Nasional has made various investments in technology companies and others
And somebody please remind these forgetful creatures that the very same country they think their money is being wasted on, it's in fact the land they stole wealth from, and exploited workforce from, for centuries. They then classify such countries as commonwealth. They in fact let these group of countries to take turns hosting a huge sporting event among the member countries every 4 years rivalling the olympics. Remind them about all these, and ask them to quantify every single item they took from our land all those decades, if they dare do so
My son is on holiday in Japan. He phoned us the other day and said. The UK is a 3rd World Country. What we have seen here so far its hard to belive we are members of the G7. And class ourselves as a Civilized Country.
To be more specifically and precisely in KL, yes! You're about living in highly luxuriously, well-facilitated, well-maintenanced city but in a cheaper version in KL but just remember! KL are located in Klang Valley and its build on a vastly reclaimend abandoned tin's mines since British colonials era then as a results there are numbers of unexpected massive sinkholes scattering over there. Such a Russian's Roulette deadly traps waiting for you!
@@ophirbactrius8285And then you talk as if Kuala Lumpur is some sort of boobytrap room for you and we eventually did not so anything about it. Wow good.
Infact lots of ex UK people are enjoying first class meds and health treatment here in Malaysia and not only KL. Check that out make own research. Dont just label other countries as worst or an enemy. We are already partners in economy move on and be sensible. Its already 2024 ladies
First of all, you are a developed nation, second you got the veto power in the UN, third you didnt fund any projects in Malaysia. Get your facts right!
I was in Malaysia a few months after the tsunami and my taxi driver in Penang (the worst-hit area) was proud of the fact that Malaysia had rebuilt without foreign aid!
Sheesshh...he wasnt too wrong, though. The damages on Penang was hardly major - maybe one beachfront overflooded & a few fishing boats sunk. While you probably meant well, it was certainly not the scale of infra damages (and human losses) incurred by nearby regions of Aceh or Phuket or even Sri Lanka.
@@TheRahsoft yepp ...penang barely experienced 5-10% the tsunami devastation in acheh, they had the ocean practically swallowing up big towns, and lost easily hundreds of thousand lives. Horrible catastrophe, for sure.
The aid to Malaysia as quoted by Daily Mail is only around £244,061 Malaysia paid it back many fold through investment in UK...Battersea to be exact. Bought the station for £400 million. Nothing u should complain about compared to money drained on Ukraine....
Miss Karma's biting their asses so hard it's almost comical.😂 They subjected us with multiculturalism now they are also multicultural. They steal from us then, now they are sending us foreign aid. Malay of Singapore were displaced by newcomers now English London has a non-white majority. What's next? The break up of UK like how they split the Malacca strait?
If I went to my bank for a loan and told them I wanted to give it to charity, they would look at me like I'd lost my mind. Is there any difference with this? Utter madness.
£ 23,500,000 for a 3.1 mile stretch of cycleway from Edinburgh Roseburn area to the Haymarket area, for an average 18 cyclists per day. In rush hour - almost as many were just riding on the main road itself ! and Glasgow CC spent £ 1,000,000 just on PLANNING a cycle lane. But that's the SNP for you.
Do you know how many billions your country sucks from African countries...?? You don't get those money, they are being used for buying weapons to help their besties the Isr...l
Come on guys. This economic cycle is not uni-lateral. Check your govt statistic. What your goverment spent to Malaysia is lesser than what Malaysia spent to the UK!
Yeah, when talking about people freezing to death. The difference between normal body temperature and hypothermia is only just over a couple of degrees; 37° and anything under 35°. When someone falls into very cold water, they don’t usually drown. Their body pools all their blood, stopping it going to the extremities, in order to keep their core temperature at or above 35°, increasing blood pressure. To decrease blood pressure, when we’re cold, we urinate. It happens so quickly in cold water, there isn’t time. So, people in very cold water often die of a heart attack due to high blood pressure. Going into hypothermia usually makes you very lethargic; you often just want to close your eyes and sleep. I have been in that position myself. In the home, someone can get so cold that they get the same way. If they can get to the toilet to urinate, and they don’t take enough fluids in, their blood becomes thicker and less able to circulate and carry oxygen. If they can’t get to the toilet, their blood pressure goes up. Particularly in older people, either scenario puts them at more risk of heart attack, stroke, a ruptured aneurism, etc. So while it won’t say on their death certificate that they froze to death, they will have died as a result of the cold. I've had work colleagues adamantly insisting that no one will freeze to death in the UK, in winter. I said no, but many thousands *will* die from cold!
We Have Given Charities Around The World No End Of Monies And Get Crapped On When We Need Help. Our Pensioners Are Going To Freeze To Death This Winter Having Fuel Payment Scrapped And Our NHS In Turmoil. Charity Begins At Home
In the 80s my mum said..to the TV..and who Bob will feed us..I looked at her and said this is Britain..we're self sufficient...yes but there's only so much you can give....AND NOW ITS HERE..ALL THAT MONEY. ALL THEM YEARS..Austerity.Plandemic...AND WE DONT HAVE A POT TO PISS IN
I need to validate the authenticity of this news. I doubt it is a "charity" aid. I'm sure the "giver" get something in return as part of a corporate deal or something. Nothing comes free and I don't think China or Malaysia ever asked for "aid" (charity) from the UK Malaysia" didn't even accept "help" from IMF during 1997 economy crises and you think they asked for "aid" for their road scheme? Come on.
We shall accept payments though, full payments, including inflations factored in over the centuries, for all the tin ores, the rubber/latex, the spices, etc that they conveniently carted away from our land. How about that
@@kavic1234 So if we deduct the cost of infrastructures and "investments" they put in Malaya, we UK govt pay for the rest of the damages? Including bringing in immigrant from China and India?
@@GTestuser Immigration from China and India is just cultural enrichment. Nee to stay current on policy otherwise you will be jailed for being far right.
@@seancrowe3353 I am married to a Malaysian and have a house there. Their standard of living for the average person is much better that someone in the UK. They work less, retire before us and don't have huge mortgages to pay. Land is cheap, fuel is heavily subsidised and taxes are low. Oh, and some of the best food in the world.
Actually it was. Malaysia did spent to the UK more than the UK spent to Malaysia. Talking about bicycle lane? Malaysia exports major machineries components from the UK even they can get cheaper price from China....
Why are we having to borrow money that we have to pay interest on to help others in countries that have space projects, building projects and wealthier than we are?
This demonstrates how bad this country is managed, all tax money should be spent on the UK. Just think how hard working people work to earn that money for it then not to benefit them but to benefit some other country. WOW
Yes 45 years full time paid £450,000 in national insurance. Sick for 3 weeks.. given £319 for 5 weeks. .....an I work 50 hour week...cannot get help from anywhere...Angry ain't the word...x
I am Malaysian and I also wonder why the hell the UK giving us foreign aid for? It is for traffic congestion no less. It seem like they are lobbying to get projects. Anyway, we are friendly to the UK so take this as payback for plundering us. Hahaha. But our sympathies to ur situation and hope things get better soon
Lol these people complains when UK sends aid to these countries to build facilities but the mouth shuts when billions of £ were sent to UKR and ISR to facilitate them in WAR. 😅😅😂😂
Giving money to these places allows ministers and "their staff of civil servants" to go on luxuary jollies to these places to "fact find". What a nice job I'm envious.
We don't need cycle lanes. The cycle lanes near me are almost always completely empty. What we do need is for potholes to be repaired and road markings to be replaced.
I shouldn't laugh but was quite funny But on a serious note if the winter fuel payment has to be means tested ...the cut off point needs to be increased Im sure labour MP's couldn't manage on the money....probably the reason they get all those personal donations from the unions and get there utility bills paid for on their second homes
Nick clegg was an idiot for granting tax payers money to China and India who have their own space programs! China have more millionaires than any other countries! We have given so much money to Palestine, that it should be like LAS VEGAS gilded in gold! Other countries have also given billions to Palestine! Where have all that money gone! Question. Is Russia also receiving money from the UK courtesy of Nick Clegg? South Africa also?
Go to google maps, go to edlington near doncaster, go to Princess Crescent, go to street view. Go up and down that street. Question why are we sending money to China. Why do these places vote labour?
@@johnharrison373no doubt a testament that we ought to subsidise basic education first, so mugs can pass on correct information even in YT comments of all places😂
I think it's a token gesture for when we desperately need money from those countries. Perhaps Africans will have a LiveAid concert for the UK pensioners this winter.
agree…we malayan never agree for brits to plunder tins, rubber, timber from malaya to enrich the empire..😊 any way, lets progress & prosper together moving forward…
@@baharm65 exactly. And what they stole was way way wayyyyyyy more! Imagine them now having to pay us back with the inflation factored in over the centuries!
British insanity, let's give a big chunk of taxpayer money away every year to rich countries, many of which probably don't even like us, even though we're a very weak economy and our own people are going without basic stuff - e.g. having to use food banks, can't afford heating or homeless, and we have roads full of potholes. It' very clear the gov couldn't give a toss about the British taxpayer.
how do u know they don't like u guys? maybe sometimes u just have to be less pessimistic. go out n touch the grass. u'll find that there's a whole world outside of britain and not everyone hate u
@@denisburgess2966errrmmm…post world war 2, when the Great Britain ruled over Malaya, Singapore, Sabah & Sarawak. The amount of wealth GB have taken was enough to fund D-Day invasion. Jeez, don’t you people study your own history?
I'm curious about the cycle lanes, because I used to live in KL and to cycle there is too hot to do so( I had to wait until the evening just before it got dark in order to manage the heat on a bike). Most people prefer to use a moped/ motor bike/car
£244k funding to Kuala Lumpur is a barely aid LOL 😂😂😂 Its like, UK government trying to lobbying Malaysian government to get the project… Do not think yourself soooo highly…
250 thousand british pounds???? That is sooo pathetically paltry, it is not even enough to pay for one single shipload out of all the tin ores they carted away all those decades! And we haven't even thrown in all those rubber latex, spices, etc, yet! Come on, britain, you are a highly developed nation within the g7 circle, don't embarrass yourself, you can do wayyy better for us, start paying much much more!!!
I agree but wish to add that every country should cease sending utter billions to the most corrupt country in Europe, ie Ukraine. There is no accountability there and Zelenksy and his cronies have unkown sums squirreled away on their offshore accounts.
bagi skit ja kat malaysia tp bnyak bising....brtish beratus tahun jajah tanah malaya beratus ribu bilion di rompak mcm mna...boleh bayar balik semua???
Starmer urgently needs a mental health check up , we the responsible public cannot allow him to continue doing himself harm and those British folk around him . He’s dangerous to his future prospects and that of our country . Just saying , no violence, no incitement, no racism , Just an observation of his so far weird behaviour , it’s as though he wants everybody here to hate him , some kind of complex weirdness I think !
What can i say is... "thank you UK taxpayer". And it's not our fault your leadership decided to invest here. We just a developing country with just free education and free health care to its people.
As we know, the British always want to be the big brother and one of the conditions for independence in their colonial countries a few centuries ago must be sheltered under the Commonwealth. For example, what was left on the Peninsula after the British left the country? The iron ore has been unloaded. Gold and other precious stones. The broken policy and the British order made the Malays marginalized and poor in the hinterland, instead the workers brought in from China and India dominated the economy in the cities. Malaysia took a long time to recover from this unfair socio-economic situation, instead it was criticized when the government made policies to increase the economic power of the Malays who were sidelined for so long. Malaysia is criticized as a country that oppresses other races even though we can witness, other races are free to practice their native religion and culture in an open economic system. Just because some policies give privileges does not mean that other races cannot carry out their activities as usual, even vernacular schools, temples are also given provisions.
The British during the colonial era have exhausted the produce of Malaysia and brought it to Britain to develop your country, especially after the end of World War 2, the British drained all the contents of the Malaysian soil to rebuild Britain from destruction, don't forget about the greed of your government once upon a time
One thing we need to understand and if it's happening, it the truth. So we send money to India and china, and this gives us leverage over decisions and to have a voice. We do this with our friends, family and kids....and in politics, it happens with countries....whoever gave the cash is the advisor of decision making, and whoever accepted it has to listen for the cash to carry on, it's a bribe for goods and technology and money...
The leads to the big question, is aid really going to these countries or just funding British expats working in British aid agencies in these countries? As Reem pointed out, people rather work in peaceful Malaysia as compared to a war torn country. The so-called "aid" are actually PR and diplomatic tools.
The over seas aid budget needs to be cancelled no ifs or buts. We have enough people in need of help here. Funding all the illegal immigrants is essentially overseas aid.
That is just how diplomatic relation work you give some aid even it is not really needed and in return you also got something. Its about keeping good relation.
Our government is mad ...they are prepared to tax pensioners, cut winter fuel payment...to many pensioners who are just a couple of ponds about the cut off point to receive any pension credit ..to save 1.5 billion...yet Labour is happy to give 11.6 taxpayers money to countries that are richer than the uk ...China is the second highest economy in the world...are our government mad ....is it not the job of any government to put its own people first ???
