Lately, in the news:
(1) The new Proton Saga to be sold in Australia soon. Known as P16, the car will be powered by 1.6 litre CPS engine, together with superb safety features such as twin air-bags, ABS, among others. The price tag - AUS$15,000 (roughly RM38,000).
The "joke" is: In Malaysia, Proton Saga is only 1.3, without all the above safety feature (as if the life of Malaysians are CHEAPER than those of Australians), but the price tag is RM36,000!
(2) Malaysia to have her very own F1 team very soon, and to take part in the race from January 2010! Known as 1Malaysia F1 Team, the team will be sponsored by the government through several of its GLCs and other corporates. The team has a start-up capital of RM168 million and a baseline annual budget of an estimated RM308 million. Official estimated expenditure per annum will be at least RM1bil (could be 10 times more if based on expenditure by other teams, but official Malaysian news hide this truth from the public)!
The "joke" is: Malaysia is still in deep **** as far as economy is concerned! Inflation is at all time high (at least around 7% t0 8%, but not being revealed). Chap-fun (mixed rice) costs RM5-6 now compared to RM4 early last year. Teh tarik costs RM1.40 now compared to RM1 last year. The public also have to pay RM1.80 for the inferior RON95 petrol now. The government is still unwilling to vaccinate the rakyat against H1N1 for free, neither are they willing to treat everyone with suspected symptoms. Price of basic needs like electricity, water, petrol, gas, etc. continue to go up. The same goes for other food items. The list goes on and on...very cham...
Well,
1 Malaysia
RAKYAT DIDAHULUKAN
