I WAS WRONG! Malaysia experiencing Miracle Economic Turnaround! 

Sure indeed, we are in the 60s and we only know the word Sacrifice.

belahlah

No one is greater than the other. Accumulating more wealth during one generation as a whole means that generation has a higher resource-population ratio.

It's not just the sacrifices we made that bore results for our families that are impossible to beat in this day and age. The quality of life was unsurpassable by today's standards. In the 60s the country was thriving and in its prime with zilch racial and religious issues. Those of us who were born before independence could easily testify to that. Now it's a sorry state of affairs with the country continuously on the downward spiral with no end in sight.

pakcik you were born at right time that's all. just bersyukur

You did the right thing. Regardless of what bounty, negative and jealous comments, i can forsee a big boom on Malaysia economy very soon. Goodluck.

You have an amazing PM now…. Treasure it

For those singaporeans who are too young, back in the 70's, the RM is stronger than the SGD. Not to say that day will come back, but, just saying it happened before.

Singaporeans always remember Dr M time kena left right centre and bashing from him 😂😂😂😂

@@leealex24MYR was made cheaper to SGD back then to make Malaysian products and services cheaper. To attract foreign investment. That was right at the time, might not true now

Wishful thinking, lah!

@@a.s.k3149 What kind of zero effort answer is that? This creator made a broad-reaching in-depth analysis Do you have anything of substance to contribute to the discussion?

Malaysia in the 70's had one of the strongest currency in Asia. I'm sure it was fantastic. Strong currency, large ample lands, strong govt and lots of resources. Will be much harder to go back to those days, I think given the changing nature of Malaysia's economic and social structure as well as external environment, it's kindda impossible. But, RM strengthening by 20% - 30% is possible in the coming years and Malaysia can position themselves to be like Taiwan of South East Asia. Not a big economy (Can't be considered a superpower or anything close) but, relatively wealthy hovering at US$20,000 - US$25,000 GDP per capita in 10 - 15 years time.

Today ( 13.6.24 ), the Malaysian Ringgit strengthed. Just changed some AUD at 1 = RM3.134 vs RM3.145 on 12.6.24.

I think MYR will strenthen a LOT in coming years. Now the biggest hurdle is US interest rate being so high. Once this starts coming down coupled with readiness of Malaysia after government initiatives launched start bearing fruits, you will see more foreign inflows into Malaysia assets as a whole. If Answe can be in power for 10 years, things will look very different for Malaysia then compared to ger current state.

You joker joker joker

Need not worry about Singaporeans... Your Malaysia government is full of crooks. Nothing will change.

Thank you. We, Malaysians have a long way to go to catch up with our Singaporean cousins. Sadly. We have too many institutional and structural weaknesses coupled with inherent corruption at all levels. Wish us luck please 🙏🏽

@@tammyloo9165 Its not luck that you need. Your govt needs to focus on what matters most - the fourth R. Ringgit.

@@josephyeo6966 it IS luck…to get the right people in government 😊

@@tammyloo9165 So you think the quality of electoral candidates that you have are based on luck rather than on merit. I don't think so. Even if you believe that luck has to be an ingredient to for good governance, whose luck? The candidate's luck or the people's luck? The logical conclusion would be that good governance is the result of intelligent, far sighted and broad minded individuals being able to focus on matters that matters most.

That was the previous Agong stupid.

That was the previous Agong Stupid

Yes, a few of the Private Universities including TAR are good.

You are a joker. I work in a company employing 100s of staff. The quality is so much worse than before. Do you know what kind of passing marks they use in schools now? You will be shocked.

I have tar students working with me, over many years and even now. They are hardworking and reliable, but their skill and knowledge not comparable to Singapore graduates. I studied in nus, have children living in Singapore, taught part time in private university, run a company of 100s staff. So my experience of our school quality is first hand and broad based.

​@@Easyly1953 Tar is not popular in Malaysia. I believe Sunway University, Malaysia is best private University in Southeast Asia. But see what this Malaysian Private university claimed" See what they claim " Taylor's University is one of the world's top 1% universities and the #1 private university in Southeast Asia for 5 years in a row (2025 QS World University Rankings). In addition, it ranks #41 in Asia (2024 QS Asia University Rankings)"

Lol no Sunway and TAR. You always mentioned those because they're Chinese majorly students and Chinese owned. Bunch of freak racist kiasus

What is the point of declaring ZERO tolerance to corruption by the king,? You don't know ah corruption is top down.

Economic trajectory have always been good as a strategic geopolitic location, thieves had stolen for every development that would have benefit the rural areas with their rights. Give it within this 5 terms, especially with the lead of Yang DiPertuan Agong.

he wanted to go hunting!! but he is hunting for number plates

Corruption happened everywhere includinh singapore and it was done sneakedly. Who knew even you yourself also did some corruptions once within your life so far. Its a Sad fact that in parliamentary monarchy system, a king or whom we called as Agong has not absolute executive powers because that head of government that held the executive powers lies within the Prime Minister We supposed to wish for economic empowerment and good governance and management of debts and how to channel the revenue to the most productive sector in our economy. The malaysian ministries never really learn the failure of NEP that benefiting only themselves the elites ruling malays and not us the ordinary citizens In national budget 2024, anwar ibrahim raised another 80 bilion ringgit loan from central bank BNM, injecting new printed money in our economy, in expense of weakening the ringgit further due to increased money supply

Who are you to ask Agong? You better than Agong ah?

Not only in johor. Even roads in highend neighbourhoods in kl are poorly maintained, with permanent potholes. What's the use of nice big gdp numbers while lives of everyday men are miserable

Razak lagi .. Mahathir itu bapak segala rasuah

This is already happening as many Singapore Companies with Singapore PR ( Malaysians ) have shifted their HQ to Johor Baru and bought up Landed Properties by their bosses. The children then attending private international school there too. Works out more cost effective and a better quality of life. Guess what? Those Malaysians working in Singapore are happy to get paid 2/3 of their Singapore Salary and work in J.B. Interesting lor😂😂

Lower fertlity is also a problem

Great to hear Singaporeans telling the real facts not like before.😀

New King played a vital role to getting things done.

😂 Do you believe Zahid Hamidi is innocent of corruption?

@@ocswoodlandsvery unfortunately in coalition politics, you have to turn a blind eye at some things to see the bigger picture in the long-term…

This term may continue and if it does reforms will show the good results. It is thereafter up to the rakyat to.choose between protecting race and religion or having continuity in reforms. A lot will depend on how the 'brain-washed' ones act. Time will tell. As.for the.minority result.is what matters.

​@@ocswoodlandsZahid is not an anchor, PMX is the one who navigates the country. Zahid and UMNO are one of the partners of the unity government. Without Zahid and UMNO also the unity government cannot be formed and the ratification or reform can't be executed.

Dont praise too early. Many politician cannot be trusted. What happen then was the proof. See what they do not what they say

Welcome to Melaka! 😁

Strong gradually not fast2 ma haha 😆

I think as Singaporeans, I wish Malaysia would be perfect but I think Malaysians should be realistic to give PM Anwar time to improve gradually.

You're joking! ​@@1m65

Colonial power rule and devide. All around the world. Eg. Palestine. See their hypocrite behavior

As a Malaysian, i would like to be optimistic and see how this government would curb the systematic corruption within this 5 years. That is only fair

Tbh, we are improving but at a TERRIBLE low pace. Our neighbouring countries are catching up and some managed to surpass us. At some point, China and Korea were behind us but now its the other way around. Felt shame, disappointed and sad. But I always do hope for the best.

I haven’t finished paying for my renovation…. 🥲

Vested interest, Mr loo? Just wondering

@@Easyly1953Likely not selling my JB holiday home for my lifetime. No value to talk about. 100% written off expenditure.

One small step forward is the beginning. Malaysians living in Singapore too long have actually lost the daily happening update in Malaysia. For instance, the renewal of the passport. Senior citizen can get within 3 hrs, just walk in. Normal within 4-5 years depending whether one has obtained a queue number . Not going to happen in any Western Countries. For example in Australia 😂😂

You hit the nail on the head. Education is the cornerstone and foundation of our future. At the moment, it is in the shithouse!

Bear in mind Rome was not built in one day's time. Malaysia has finally moving ahead.

Mention anwar and lky in the same breath? Don't insult lky

Dr M is a show stopper and wasted one lost generation progress

He is an selfish and evil man deep down.

Don't forget mamak kutty madey 's " project i/c " in sabah .

His indicator lo. He is god mah

Won't happen as long as there's race based politics & corruption continue with that. It will strengthen a little but may not last long.

@@vister6757 South africa manage to be 1st world sometimes ago under apartheid.

So u agree with Hannah Yeoh's hubby getting a project without tender?

@@tunkulailitunkushahriman3939 I think the parties need to make sure that it is SEEN to be clean, especially when the award of the project is seen to be given to a connected person. However, I know many friends who are personally close to her professionally. From their input, I am very certain of her integrity. As to the rewarding of the project, I do not know enough the intricacies of the project so cannot comment. But I still say, for a public profile person, project allocation must be clean, and seen to be clean. I know people of principle often think "I know I am clean, so I do not need to show to others that I am clean." Sometimes a project award note explaining how they come to a decision will be immensely transparent to the public.

Private unis & colleges.

Please do your research.

Well, it is a miracle to me that Malaysia can turnaround even a small one

If happen again Singapore will full with foreigner. Built more house for foreigner to stay because no malaysia will work there 😂

​@@fazrul78huh? It should be the other way around
