Weekly Fuel Price System

Affordable house, this is also difficult, other big cities of the world also face the same issue. The key is how to improve average income level so that housing becomes 'more affordable'.

Average income how to own house now. Firstly too expensive, then G try to help by raising loan amount but then they don't meet the repayment criteria also no use to raise the amount since in the end don't qualify.......lol:biggrin:
 
Bro 6ue5t, KL of course all better compare to other states in malaysia. :biggrin:

I read somewhere that cost of living is actually considered one of the cheapest in KL/Malaysia compared to others parts of the world. But yeah housing in big cities is always a challenge, just like in Jakarta.

Mate, i don't think it is fair to compare with a more backward country in term of income per capita and other perks enjoyed. We should actually project ourself forward and compare with our neighbours like Singapore or Brunei. Do note that we are a resource rich country but with all the taxes and profits from the oil revenue made, where has the money gone to? With the tax and subsidy cut, inflation has been going up sky high, but where has the return to counter the sky high inflation gone to? Even Singapore, a tiny country without any resources can made themselves among the top 10 in the world in term of income per capita. Malaysia at no.66.

No mater how high the price of goods and fuel, as long as the income per capita is linear to the raising price of goods and fuel, then we are all good but this is not the case with bolehland unfortunately.

Depreciation of currency is another matter.

Prime minister's office expenditure 2016(bolehland) = RM20.3 billion
Prime minister's office expenditure 2016(Singapore) = $488.07 million S. Dollars only.

True, I get what you mean. Of course our problem now is the weakest currency, with increase in costs is more than increase in income, hence less savings. But Singapore is also one of the most expensive place in the world, so I don't know. I suppose it's always look greener on the other side of the fence.

Gov office expenditure cannot really compare coz SG is so small with much lesser population also, so of course requires a lot less expenditure.
 
In Indonesia many things are actually much more expensive than here: sugar, rice, cooking oil, eggs, meat, juices, fuel, toll, electricity, water, medical, etc2. Eat at mall also more expensive. Cheaper stuff are cleaning agents like soap & shampoo, some fast moving car parts, labor just to name a few.

For Malaysia, free or almost free education you have already right with the public schools? Good hospital, I'd say ok also. Public transport in KL is pretty good actually, way2 much better than Jakarta. Safety, now that has lots of room for improvement here. Affordable house, this is also difficult, other big cities of the world also face the same issue. The key is how to improve average income level so that housing becomes 'more affordable'.

Din't know these basic necessities in Indonesia is more expensive than here.

Yeah, education is almost free here for primary and secondary school until pre-uni level. What school did your children went to over here? Private?

Bro 6ue5t, KL of course all better compare to other states in malaysia. :biggrin:

Penang is also not that bad what. Come look at Ipoh. But then, I like the way of life in Ipoh. :biggrin:

Many heavy footers here, fuel price not applicable.

Couldn't agree more. :rofl:

You are right. The scale of Singapore makes it much better to manage than Malaysia. The whole country is even smaller than Perak state itself. You can put it like, using a national government to manage a city.

Yup, and income level is also lower!

Int. school.
 
Nice word.+1

G done their job as a G. But we public din see a win win situation.
Currency yoyo-ing is major but not the root cause. :smokin:

Weakening MYR is not a root cause but a result of the political fighting and backstabbing between Gov & opposition! Both are at fault IMHO, none are really trustworthy.

i dunno. Considering the SGP Govt is spending nearly 400 times less than the Msian one, kinda makes you think doesn't it?

No doubt MY Gov is still pretty corrupt while SG Gov is probably one of the cleanest. Corruption is like cancer, difficult to remove as it's already spreading, same case like Indonesia and many other SEA countries. Problem is with MY, nobody is free from that, even oppositions!

Everyone want a piece of the pie. :smokin:

Yup and that's why difficult to eradicate coz somehow everyone is tied up somewhere with someone to enjoy some piece of the pie. If you have someone really clean that means he/she is not tied to anyone powerful enough hence also difficult to get into power.
 
Increase better increase.. do not reduce.. if not a lot of people still dreaming saying that they are a good G..
lets use this suffer a lesson to those whom are still day dreaming..

I'd gladly take increase of fuel for a 50% or more reduction in road tax! :biggrin: Coz road tax in Malaysia is just plain stupid, the most idiotic rule I've ever known.
 
Fuel increase 50%, everything follow increase....chain effect.
Hahahaha......mampuih, i for sure use ling long tyre.
