Red Wing

i was thinking if it was possible to have a politician that lived modestly...riding motorbike instead of a big black mercedes with a hunky bodyguard with face that could tell you i'm gonna chew you like a meat..nah..won't happen in million years

i have my time to watch the people's talk debate between TS Anwar and Shabery last week, and apparently was dissappointed on how shallow the answer being given by government representatives in deliberating his point. all i could see was more to ancient history and all things that others already had known. Might be watching too much of youtube or reading lots of other craps on the web. All i could capture during the debate was venezuela, PETRONAS, venezuela again...PETRONAS again and again...and others could be seen as an attack to one's pastime.

i think lots of people who watched it that night was hoping that they could have some insight on how the government mitigate the issues and with what had been given by PETRONAS, how they can channel it for the greater good of the people. and on the opposition, lots are really interested to hear what are action plans to be taken if they have the chances to do it, or at least what people could do to solve it together.

Personnaly, this issues was not supposed to be single pointed to government only. Local companies should have taking their parts in aiding to the situation and not just hiring newly grad as management trainee and paying them deliberately unacceptable wages just because they were unexperienced. That's just bullshit.

Companies should offer good remuneration packages and competitive wages so that people are motivated. Don't just say newly grads are too snobbish and picky in choosing jobs. Earning Rm1000 in some remote area with no cell coverage is not the same as earning similar wages while living in KL. and with the current prediction of rising rate of inflation, it just a matter of time before we realize that our money is no good.
