PM: We must be thrifty

PM: We must be thrifty

I don't know what's got into Pak Lah nowadays. He raises fuel price is one thing, now he urged the Govt. to spend less. This is madness! He'll send the whole economy tumbling down by doing this. Doesn't he realise that Govt. spending is one of the main generator of economic activity? He should be thinking of how to kick-start the economy, not choking them off. But then again, he doesn't do much of a thinking anyways.... The effect of rising fuel cost has yet to settled in and the stock market is still reeling downwards. Now he says the Govt. to cut down spending - less money in circulation - less business activities - probable lay-offs - vicious circle indeed. Baru jah rasa nok untung sikit, nampok gaya back in red la....

Time and again Pak Lah showed his weaknesses in tackling pressing issues (the NST incident for one). When people expect him to be tough, he acted as if nothing serious happens and happily advise people to forgive and forget! When things doesn't really require tough act, he sent a Minister all the way to China to apologise. I think his days is numbered.

I think Pak Lah should seriously think of an excuse to bow out... dan bawalah sekali labu-labunya...
