In Sarawak we don't accept religious chauvinism, for example a Malayan teacher who tried to convert and brain wash her student was promptly sent home the very next day accompanied by immigration to ensure she got the hell out.

Thanks for being the best "menteri penerangan" for the govt. At least from DAP perspective. Insights like this should be given so that the lay person on the street understands the burden of leadership.
Hello Kian Ming, I have retired in March 2023. I have been observing the politics in this country from my early days in my career. I am amazed by your intelligence & highly educated & young too. Time & again I hope you will come back to politics & lead the Chinese Malaysian community so that the Chinese in Malaysia will have a good & secured future. This will include all retirees who are looking forward to retirement with government help in financial assistance.
Agreed. More retirees should devote time to politics and contribute to society with their past experience. Kian Ming can make a good leader in the political area.
Only for "Chinese", it's time to think as Malaysians! Worse, you mentioned "Chinese Malaysian" instead of "Malaysian Chinese". Good la, that you have retired.
@@alexputra-w1uI think deep down we are all racist..kot? Somehow we will champion the rights of our own race...it's everywhere even in US...you look at the way voters come out to vote..we are divided into 2 major races..Chinese and Malay..
I have lived in Bintulu since 1978 and i have seen the development of the oil & gas industry from day 1. Why are Sarawakian very protective? During the early days and even now, almost all of the oil & gas project were given to West Malaysia companies that had JV with local companies. The reason being that Sarawakian companies did not have the experience or funding to carry out the construction. The work was then sub-contracted to many levels of West Malaysian. Once the project was completed, these companies will just leave and payments due to the local contractors were not paid. I have seen this many happen times which makes me weary of West Malaysian companies even till today. Talk about technology transfer? Before Chief minister Adenan's time, the majority of the workforce at the Petronas owned plants were West Malaysians. I am sure many locals could have been trained in the span of 20 years. But I am happy say that this policy has been changed. Kudos to the current government. And like you said, Sarawakian are looked down upon by West malaysian. I was asked if I lived on a tree when I was at Taylors during the late 80s. Part of this fault lies with the Sarawak Government who :- 1. When featuring Sarawak in the media will only show long houses, the jungle and caves. 2. Not giving local chances to have higher education. We have many foreign institution of higher learning but not all families can afford the fees. We have local Universities but what is the percentage of Sarawakians students in there? To be fair, it is also the mind set of the locals who do not put much importance into education. I know many parents who do not push their children to even finish form 5 at the very least. Hopefully with the new initiatives by the current government will create many work opportunities for the locals and push the young students to seek higher education to meet the demands for professionals.
Regarding the Malayan who asked you in the 1980s if you lived on a tree, you should not be embarrassed. Play along and make up stories about living on a tree: doing a #1 or a #2 from a tree during emergency, taller trees being more expensive, etc. At the same time, feel sad for them for having the thought. As for universities enrolment, I don’t agree with pushing students into one, by exams grade inflation, for the sake of statistics. It does nobody good, except the politicians. What’s more important is the strengthening of the foundation of education by providing quality, state sponsored 2yr preschool, 6yr primary and 5yr secondary school levels. Compulsory education must be extended from six years to 13 years. Welfare support must be provided to those living in poverty. Parents who failed to enrol their children to attend school must be prosecuted. No child must be left out of the system. Once this is done and is running smoothly, their eligibility to enrol into universities (or vocational training) would be a natural progression.
Curiously to read Kian Meng's soon to be published on the past election result, and I believe it will be his in depth analysis on the issue. Please ensure that the public will be notified extensively when it is already published....and everyone will be able to have it easily.
KM is very insightful and informative. & speaks the truth about . The problem with DAP today is controlled by LGE & family, they dont want people like KM to shine, who is trying to help the party to go on the right track.
Loke keeps on compromising and conceding on the rights of those who voted the DAP in. He may not even mind if Najib is released tomorrow as long as it’s on Anwar’s term. The line in the sand keeps on shifting and before long DAP will fall off the cliff.
It's always the lesser-evil! No-doubt, it's hard for DAP to rock-the-boat & fall into the Umno & Pas trap as in previously administration! That's why the saying, nothing worst than having a useless partner! It is, what it is DAP need to stick with useless pkr as for now!
keep tolerating? wow so dap is so big in malaysia makes them the most powerful and others party need to follow dap rules? hahaha no wonder umno always say they also cant tolerate with u guys 👲🏻😂
DAP needs to understand the Rakyat feelings and not to take it for granted to think supporters are always on your side. Recent cases and issues are just too obvious to know what is right and wrong. Know how to voice out and keeping silence option is as good as an acceptance. There are limits to compromising.
East Malaysia government should continue to hold autonomy on immigration, and extend the rights to education and more in order to weed out Malaya toxic politics and religious extremism.
Now that the DAP says that there are constraints to what they can do in the Unity Government but the issue is does you sacrifice principles in order to be in government
It does not mean that if DAP is in a Coalition, it must make sacrifices and compromise its founding principles and values.What DAP always wanted was a one Malaysia.I strongly believe that DAP is losing its importance of being the only party that wants a level playing field knowing that the country without a level playing field the country will soon be behind China Japan,Korea,Singapore Vietnam Thailand,Philippines,Indonesia.I can guarantee that this will happen by 2030.
You either don't understand Malaysian politics or expect the impossible from DAP. In short, you have no solution on how to move Malaysia forward in competition with those countries you mentioned. IMHO, the UG is moving in the right direction and we need to give them strong support to avoid reverting to the old corrupt system.
@@adamiskandar5107 , Looking at the current scenario, inherited over nearly 2 generations of poor governance, indeed abused by a leadership who simply corrupted the system for self gains, it will take the current leadership some time to control the rudder of the ship. Indeed, otherwise we will find this nation at the bottom of the ASEAN region.
LGE can't take criticism and different input. And mind you this is direct experience dealing with him when he was minister. Okm did the right thing to step aside but hats off to him to voice his input to LGE
I have been with DAP FROM 1972 ,THE FOUNDER MEMBERS ARE GONE EXCEPT FOR THE GREAT MR.LKSENG. GOD BLESS MR. LIM. THERE ARE ALMOST ALL TOP LEADERS IN DAP ARE YOUNG AND THAT IS GOOD FOR DAP.
The UMNO Youth leader needs to be counselled! He should restrain from opposing every suggestion raised by some DAP leaders!! His stance is still racist!
lol dap is clearly rasis. whenever suggestion benefit ur owned race u say its ok but when we malay do the same u say rasis. 😂 hahaha we know la 👲🏻 tactic
You need to know his background. Although he won in the UMNO election, he is still aligned with the anti-Zahid faction. Since UMNO is part of the UG, we should bear this in mind when we criticize UMNO. We should know how to handle 'troublemakers' within the UG coalition partners, i.e. not to allow ourselves to be unnecessarily divided by those whose ulterior motive was to weaken the UG.
I think his argument makes sense and to have chinese new villages a unesco cultural site need to be debated and defended with proper points. Like KM has explained, it is a bridge too far
Nga Kok Ming help to distract Anwar's pardon issue on Najib. Maybe somebody in Anwar's camp managed to trick Chauvinist Nga Kok ming to champion this stupid, non-essential issue of Chinese New village as UNESCO heritage to help distract the Najib's pardon case. MAybe ANwar and Anthony Loke sit down and hammer this issue on how to distract Najib's pardon issue. And this seems to work. Anwar and Anthony Loke are genius, and the rest of 99% of population are just sheeps to be herded in a direction or another.
I dont see as "softened" when DAP reps/Ministers are relatively quiet now. They are busy now doing jobs that were not with them before. So far, they are doing good (make good of their promises too)
That is the strong point of DAP reps/Ministers. Unlike their UMNO, even PKR counterparts, they do not 'play politics' for self gain (to propel themselves to the forefront of leadership). They are still relatively new in their positions and need all the experience on the job, thus it's sensible to work hard to deliver what was expected of them.
Sarawakian here. I'm currently feeling hopeful about the direction our state is going. I agree with OKM's thoughts on allowing more skilled labour from WM to work in Sarawak. We have most things ready except for human capital. From time to time I'd see news of our gov asking Sarawakians to return home to help develop our state. They're also taking steps to encourage STEM edu but that'll take years before we can see any impactful results. We definitely need more ppl, the right kind of course. Not the religious rabble-rousers. I have great hopes for my home state. I hope to see its full potentials realised in my lifetime.
@@seanchen9265 I get what you mean but I'm not saying we let every Tom, Dick and Harry in. I understand some of the sensitivities but the fact is, we don't have enough ppl to develop the state. Even if all Sarawakians return to Sarawak, we still wouldn't have the numbers. I'll give you an example. I have a cousin who works for a multinational conglomerate here. He was in charge of hiring. They held job fairs all over with the state gov's full backing. Last² had to negotiate with gov to allow them to hire foreigners because they simply don't have the numbers, or the right set of skills. We really can't afford to be too strict with our immigration, we're not like Japan. Most of us have relatives working in KL, JB, SG, etc. Why is that? Could it be the lack of opportunities? And why the lack of it? MY population is around 30m. Our land is almost the size of WM and there are only around 2m of us. Do you think it's possible for us to develop our state with this number?
If suggesting or even mentioning anything will be putting pressure on Anthony Loke, might as well DAP just keep quiet on every aspect, and slowly succumb to become MCA 2.0, we have to remind ourselves that this is a joint party goverment and if UMNO keep on politizice on everything brought up by PN, some one have to step up and put them on their places, remember there is upcoming election on Sabah Melaka and Johor and we all know BN won by cheap tactic bcos of lockdown
When you are in the government naturally, you eventually have less time politically compared to when you are in opposition. Looking at it from an apolitical perspective, I believe it might be good for the nation as a whole. As, if you focus too much time politicking when you are supposed to governance, the eventually loser we be the nation in the long run.
I still would like to think NKM is not so stupid to announce the "Chinese" new villages saga without anticipating certain backlash. Either testing temperature or create a backdrop or leverage or distraction etc..
Tq to both of you for giving us another interesting & information episode. The way I look at it, it’s a blessing in disguise that Mr. Ong is not in active politics. KM, if I may address Mr. Ong as I’m probably older than him, is able to use his knowledge for the betterment of mankind than just Malaysia if he remain an active CEC or Cabinet member. I hope Areweok will consider an episode focusing on Hydrogen Industry as there are more benefits which can be derived from Hydrogen. One particular aspect is on the benefits of Hydrgen Therapy for health especially for post & pre cancer patients. In fact it’s also used in medical treatment in Japan which is a billion dollar industry. Perhaps, I’ll be glad to provide some info for your research before doing the episode. Once again, thank you both as I’ve learnt a lot from your episodes.
DAP must score some goals. While we understand the path is not easy, voters did not vote them in for nothing. After all the PH were campaigning on reforms for this nation and fight against corruption. Is this unity govt fighting against corruption and for reforms? DAP must state her stand before forming this unity govt or at the mercy of UMNO in order to form this govt? The fear of collapse of this unity govt at the mercy of UMNO. There is no clear solution but fewer non Malay voters will buy in that lesser of two evils narrative where in fact there is none. Can expect less voters turnout in the next GE.
The MCA Wee Wee...knows how to ride the glory, look at his public statement on traditional medicine being tax exempted .. Anthony or DAP needs to learn more of this
OTOP this is what Thailand has done . KM is so informative and talented ,he talk so well and with facts and strategic,Why there is still someone said he talk nonsense, isnt that moronic ?
DAP should face the reality. Chinese are minority in the country. Moreover we have been living in a multiracial society since independence day. Whether DAP is another MCA, DAP should play the role dealing with other parties. That's the purpose of unity gov. All DAP member should start changing the mindset that DAP is not a Chinese party. Yb Anthony did a superb job thus far to balance sensitive issues. All dap member must start focus on long term, stop playing racial issue. This will not benefit the gov today n pru 16
Talk about playing up racial issue, it’s bloody DUMNO that’s turning something practical into a racial issue when it’s not meant to be. You’re asking DAP and the Chinese to keep quiet like a mouse on every sensitive issue? In that case, you better give up your right to vote since you said Chinese are just a minority.
Synergy is the way forward. Sarawak can be selective in inviting talents while maintaining its full autonomy over immigration power. Its a smart thing to do . Hydrogen economy is pretty advanced but possible in Sarawak
Y.B. Anthony Loke is the true Malaysian Chinese Leader for Rakyat and Negara towards achieving Peace, Harmony & Prosperity. Happy Chinese New Year and Chop Goh Meh Prosperity to all Malaysians. Moving Forwards towards Unity an Prosperity of Malaysia. Hasta Lavista to MCI not MCA LAAAAALALAAA
The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Singapore was worth 466.79 billion US dollars in 2022, according to official data from the World Bank. And Sarawak's GDP is around USD29 billion. Population is half of singapore and yet perform so much lesser compare to Sg. How sophisticated are these natives?
Dap had hurt the business community which strongly supported them the last 2 election and put them where they are today. The party are not helping the business community and I also agreed they are heading toward MCA 2.0. Please remember, MCA had reached the bottom and will not go down further. I am disappointed with AL on the Logistics issue. TP and you KM and AL met us but now you all in the govt but this issue is still not resolved. Really frustrating ………
KM didn’t make it clear if he agreed with the reduction in Najib’s fine. He just said it was a small amount when compared with 1MDB debt and the GDP. RM160m may not be a lot to him but think of the good it would do if that were allocated to neonatal wards where the Perspex of the incubators are so opaque you can’t even see how the baby is doing. All these politicians are scared of saying anything against Najib. They know he has a lot of money and influence and they don’t want to say anything adverse. In my opinion he got off lightly. He was actually sentenced to more than 80 years but to run concurrently. If we don’t take an uncompromising stand we will never get out of this malaise we are in.
Also, if we the rakyat are expected to accept that the "pardon" is for a greater political goodness, I don't mind if issues like allocation are not fully honoured. It made no sense in many ways. It's a political move. Please look at the bigger scale, is PH turning into BN 2.0? This is when I'll be concerned. Time will tell.
I think that is not necessary. KM is doing fine in terms of playing his role as a committed DAP leader/member in 'educating' mostly what I called 'politically immature' audiences. We should continue to support his political career, because IMHO, he is a very good leader in building a New Malaysia.
I am surprised to hear racial tensions are minimal in that part of the country. When I heard about Lim Guan Eng got the Penang house at a steep discount, I felt sad and disgusted that he is no different from Najib. Anthony Loke's criticism gets whacked harder by Kian Ming.
All politicians are the same. Once holding power for long, they think the party is beholden to them.They become high handed and bully younger and aspirant politicians. For a Secretary General to slam views of a member as 'rubbish' is demeaning and hitting below the belt. Voters expect leaders to be less toxic when making such remarks in Public. Voters are having second thoughts of senior members in DAP.
Listening to Kian Ming's side of the story, he was sidelined because somebody was not receptive of his suggestions. It is good for the party's image. Taking a leaf from LSL, the Singapore PM, he said, 'When you wear white, you must be white. In fact should be whiter than white. This is a strong message to political parties that wear white uniforms. Well said by PAP icon.
KM's leadership is needed for Strategic Management of the nation long term direction, and to fine tune it specifically where reforms promised are causing people to loose trust in the PH manifesto.
44:10 imo, one of the easiest and cheapest way is for fahmi to find a really good graphic designing team to compile all the good thing into like a yearly PDF. Useinteresting graphics, seperate each segment by ministry, oh this ministry done this and that during this month, how this particular change affect certain thing in a positive way. It was done on a weekly basis at some point with "minggu ini apa?" or something that tell this week what government have done. (this bill was proposed, certain FDI was signed , new rules to ease the rakyat etc) Like come on lah, fahmi. This thing is the simplest way to communicate the government effort, XXX say macam government no do anything one, then slap him with this pdf done. WHY CAN"T PH BE BETTER AT COMMUNICATING, IT SO FRUSTRATING. Like just look at quality of Zafrul communication team compared to PH non-existing ones. Always is generic useless respond that doesn't say anything and then sensationalized by the media.
since under dap's cec system, the member with the most votes still have to go through those who are originally already part of cec to get elected for position, doesn't that make dap less democratic and give opportunity for certain individuals to control the cec and effectively block other challengers to take the position with all due respect, despite being a dap fanboy, this could be a flaw that could be exploited by individuals with malicious intent
Kian Meng's friendly advice was taken in bad faith by LGE. Forget about about him and Anthony and chart your course in politics. You are young and young voters respect you for your insights for a better Malaysia.
If UMNO leaves the unity government now its better because we now the nos. UMNO TOP LEADERS IN PARTICULAR YOUTH ARE LIKE SAMSENG. WITH SMALL NO OF MP'S IN PARLIMENT THEY LIKE TO THROW THEIR WEIGHT. THEY MUST BE GIVEN THE CONSTITUTION & THE REAL HISTORY OF MALAYA/MALAYSIA BOOKS TO READ AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH.
Scoring goals the wrong way to the discomfort of other parties.Surprising for politicians who have years of experience but still lack maturity. Voters are watching.
With regards to Najib and his "discounted" pardon. How does these benefit the people? What happens to the billions that has already being 'sapu'? Is it right to allow a convict to/and after a couple of years in prison to keeps all that was stolen?..And will he enjoy the palimentary perks and pensions when he's freed? These are the ??? with the people in the street...
OT guys~ question for Mr.Money, Peter~ what's wrong with using Malaysia way of calling yourself “Peter” instead of American accent Peter? 😅 very weird of keep on emphasizing Peter the American accent… 0:21
I rather it be like this. Siapa makan cili rasa pedas. How he said it was not in a negative manner, its more objective. But whats important is to speak up. Also alot of this podcast highlighted that current issue is comms. Even good is being done but no comms. Human nature, need to be kept being reminded.
For 72 years MCA has allowed his elder brother to robbed this country as he pleased. But this robbery did not end and has passed the problems of debt recovery to DAP to resolve.
DAP now, is focusing on developing Penang and SElangor. The rest, let Anwar handle. The Chinese is only 20% of the population and Malay consist of 95% of civil servants. How much can a Chinese political party do? DAP still need a Malay partner to handle the civil servants and many Malay issues.
Every One should be interested and excited to help PMX to shut the corruption problems and all these can go or how much can go to ease the country's debts though he does not need your help so far. It is good to see him nailing Tun M and Tun Daim and Tun M's children. How did they get so much wealth. Taib is another important issue. If PMX wins and he can give penalties our country's debt can be erased and our Ringgit will do well like USD dollar so meantime help him to manage the country's resources and economy. This is best. Too many parties and DAP other than Hannah Yeoh, Lake Siew Fook and some some others are good but not the rest. It is a waste of country's monies.
House cleaning ........ hahah my foot. Taib Mahmud was dying. that is why Taib mahmud has to go..... Now Taib Mahmud is dead. They will go after his children's wealth.
I bet none of the political leaders eould consult widely...all are for their own interest be it DSAI, Anthony or OCBC LGE...all these guys are simply lack of self cinfidence or just arrogant ..
Not easy for Dap to move around in the political arena, where some politicians still living inthe jungle.Still new 😢in the government,a lot of government servants are playing cards around.Dap can't afford to silly mistakes around.
In Sarawak we don't accept religious chauvinism, for example a Malayan teacher who tried to convert and brain wash her student was promptly sent home the very next day accompanied by immigration to ensure she got the hell out.

Maybe somebody in Anwar's camp managed to trick Chauvinist Nga Kok ming to champion this stupid, non-essential issue of Chinese New village as UNESCO heritage to help distract the Najib's pardon case. MAybe ANwar and Anthony Loke sit down and hammer this issue on how to distract Najib's pardon issue. And this seems to work. Anwar and Anthony Loke are genius, and the rest of 99% of population are just sheeps to be herded in a direction or another.
I also started to notice LGE's true colours which reflects the relevancy in his corruption cases...
I dont see as "softened" when DAP reps/Ministers are relatively quiet now. They are busy now doing jobs that were not with them before. So far, they are doing good (make good of their promises too)
That is the strong point of DAP reps/Ministers. Unlike their UMNO, even PKR counterparts, they do not 'play politics' for self gain (to propel themselves to the forefront of leadership). They are still relatively new in their positions and need all the experience on the job, thus it's sensible to work hard to deliver what was expected of them.
Sarawakian here. I'm currently feeling hopeful about the direction our state is going. I agree with OKM's thoughts on allowing more skilled labour from WM to work in Sarawak. We have most things ready except for human capital. From time to time I'd see news of our gov asking Sarawakians to return home to help develop our state. They're also taking steps to encourage STEM edu but that'll take years before we can see any impactful results. We definitely need more ppl, the right kind of course. Not the religious rabble-rousers. I have great hopes for my home state. I hope to see its full potentials realised in my lifetime.
We need to protect our immgration too. That's our MA63 that i am happy our state government do it right. #sarawakian
@@seanchen9265 I get what you mean but I'm not saying we let every Tom, Dick and Harry in. I understand some of the sensitivities but the fact is, we don't have enough ppl to develop the state.
Even if all Sarawakians return to Sarawak, we still wouldn't have the numbers. I'll give you an example. I have a cousin who works for a multinational conglomerate here. He was in charge of hiring. They held job fairs all over with the state gov's full backing. Last² had to negotiate with gov to allow them to hire foreigners because they simply don't have the numbers, or the right set of skills.
We really can't afford to be too strict with our immigration, we're not like Japan. Most of us have relatives working in KL, JB, SG, etc. Why is that? Could it be the lack of opportunities? And why the lack of it?
MY population is around 30m. Our land is almost the size of WM and there are only around 2m of us. Do you think it's possible for us to develop our state with this number?
@@Debbie.L is okay to be slow instead of becoming the next Sabah. Look Sabah after reopen, did it do them any good? Sadly no
@@seanchen9265 61 years not slow enough? I don't know much about Sabah politics so no comment. It's okay, we'll just agree to disagree.
Please also make this podcast available on youtube music and/or apple podcast
If suggesting or even mentioning anything will be putting pressure on Anthony Loke, might as well DAP just keep quiet on every aspect, and slowly succumb to become MCA 2.0, we have to remind ourselves that this is a joint party goverment and if UMNO keep on politizice on everything brought up by PN, some one have to step up and put them on their places, remember there is upcoming election on Sabah Melaka and Johor and we all know BN won by cheap tactic bcos of lockdown
Why is chicken price lower after removing price control? B4 lifting, the suppliers always cited feedmeal, labour costs, etc for pushing higher prices. Yet pork prices remain very high. Why ah?
Dap is not mca2.0. At least MCA delivered what they promised. Dap all lip services.
When you are in the government naturally, you eventually have less time politically compared to when you are in opposition.
Looking at it from an apolitical perspective, I believe it might be good for the nation as a whole. As, if you focus too much time politicking when you are supposed to governance, the eventually loser we be the nation in the long run.
1:01:15 "policy advocacy" could also be "lobbying/activism". just depends on the perspective.
I still would like to think NKM is not so stupid to announce the "Chinese" new villages saga without anticipating certain backlash. Either testing temperature or create a backdrop or leverage or distraction etc..
Do DAP hv choice other just being Pak Turut coz, Malay politicians agenda is just nak cari mkn use political platform not loving country anymore
lol dap can never survive if all malay party againts dap 😂
Tq to both of you for giving us another interesting & information episode.
The way I look at it, it’s a blessing in disguise that Mr. Ong is not in active politics. KM, if I may address Mr. Ong as I’m probably older than him, is able to use his knowledge for the betterment of mankind than just Malaysia if he remain an active CEC or Cabinet member.
I hope Areweok will consider an episode focusing on Hydrogen Industry as there are more benefits which can be derived from Hydrogen. One particular aspect is on the benefits of Hydrgen Therapy for health especially for post & pre cancer patients. In fact it’s also used in medical treatment in Japan which is a billion dollar industry.
Perhaps, I’ll be glad to provide some info for your research before doing the episode.
Once again, thank you both as I’ve learnt a lot from your episodes.
KM should create new party a 3rd power for people hv new choices
DAP must score some goals. While we understand the path is not easy, voters did not vote them in for nothing. After all the PH were campaigning on reforms for this nation and fight against corruption. Is this unity govt fighting against corruption and for reforms? DAP must state her stand before forming this unity govt or at the mercy of UMNO in order to form this govt? The fear of collapse of this unity govt at the mercy of UMNO. There is no clear solution but fewer non Malay voters will buy in that lesser of two evils narrative where in fact there is none. Can expect less voters turnout in the next GE.
Maybe, DAP was to give 1-year to PKR to consolidate its power & will start at 2nd-year to start Voicing-out for change!
What is the podcast being referred to at 3:10 ?
Career Pivot of OK Man by SYOKChannel
The MCA Wee Wee...knows how to ride the glory, look at his public statement on traditional medicine being tax exempted .. Anthony or DAP needs to learn more of this
OTOP this is what Thailand has done . KM is so informative and talented ,he talk so well and with facts and strategic,Why there is still someone said he talk nonsense, isnt that moronic ?
Abang Jo needs to have OKM on his policy team!
He can be a powerful driver of AJ's vision for S'wak!
DAP should face the reality. Chinese are minority in the country. Moreover we have been living in a multiracial society since independence day. Whether DAP is another MCA, DAP should play the role dealing with other parties. That's the purpose of unity gov. All DAP member should start changing the mindset that DAP is not a Chinese party. Yb Anthony did a superb job thus far to balance sensitive issues. All dap member must start focus on long term, stop playing racial issue. This will not benefit the gov today n pru 16
Talk about playing up racial issue, it’s bloody DUMNO that’s turning something practical into a racial issue when it’s not meant to be. You’re asking DAP and the Chinese to keep quiet like a mouse on every sensitive issue? In that case, you better give up your right to vote since you said Chinese are just a minority.
Racial Issue will always be the issue, as that is what the Malay Party, can harp-on for Voters! Be it, you like it or not!
@@Ak1m2lol it also same with all this 👲🏻🧔🏿. just look at comment cainis also hope dap will take care their owned race. not just malays 😂
@@Ak1m2lol its not just malay even u 🧔🏿👲🏻 leaders also play it to get ur votes dont act like u dont know and only blame malays 😂
Anthony “Fireman” Loke… putting out so many fires!😅
So long as Loke do not have the b_lls to confront PM on manifesto issues, no future. Some of PM recent remarks are not in line with manifesto
DAP is independent, MCA is a small part of Umbrella BN...
Surely different?
Synergy is the way forward. Sarawak can be selective in inviting talents while maintaining its full autonomy over immigration power. Its a smart thing to do . Hydrogen economy is pretty advanced but possible in Sarawak
Y.B. Anthony Loke is the true Malaysian Chinese Leader for Rakyat and Negara towards achieving Peace, Harmony & Prosperity. Happy Chinese New Year and Chop Goh Meh Prosperity to all Malaysians. Moving Forwards towards Unity an Prosperity of Malaysia. Hasta Lavista to MCI not MCA LAAAAALALAAA
@MiHosni
ANTHONY LOKE IS
*WAYANGMan*
DAP MAKING HAY WHILE SUNSHINE
The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Singapore was worth 466.79 billion US dollars in 2022, according to official data from the World Bank. And Sarawak's GDP is around USD29 billion. Population is half of singapore and yet perform so much lesser compare to Sg. How sophisticated are these natives?
Hydrogen powered vehicles at the present moment is still a huge engineering feat. Storing H2 requires a huge high pressure tank.
Ketuanan Cina VS Ketuanan India VS Ketuanan Melayu. Good going Malaysia!
Dap & mca should stop attacking each other. Please try t o improve the community's welfare.
Bitter foes since time memorial. The name of DAP sounds better whilst the other, MCA sounds it is only for one race.
Dap had hurt the business community which strongly supported them the last 2 election and put them where they are today. The party are not helping the business community and I also agreed they are heading toward MCA 2.0. Please remember, MCA had reached the bottom and will not go down further. I am disappointed with AL on the Logistics issue. TP and you KM and AL met us but now you all in the govt but this issue is still not resolved. Really frustrating ………
AL only interested in generating revenue from vehicle plate number.
KM didn’t make it clear if he agreed with the reduction in Najib’s fine. He just said it was a small amount when compared with 1MDB debt and the GDP. RM160m may not be a lot to him but think of the good it would do if that were allocated to neonatal wards where the Perspex of the incubators are so opaque you can’t even see how the baby is doing. All these politicians are scared of saying anything against Najib. They know he has a lot of money and influence and they don’t want to say anything adverse. In my opinion he got off lightly. He was actually sentenced to more than 80 years but to run concurrently. If we don’t take an uncompromising stand we will never get out of this malaise we are in.
Also, if we the rakyat are expected to accept that the "pardon" is for a greater political goodness, I don't mind if issues like allocation are not fully honoured. It made no sense in many ways. It's a political move.
Please look at the bigger scale, is PH turning into BN 2.0? This is when I'll be concerned. Time will tell.
Sorry DAP, you are not getting my vote. I'm glad i did not vote for DAP in last election and will not in near future. They just another version of MCA
Hello from London 👋🏽
GOVT MPS' [[ BOR LAMPARR ]] EXCEPT FOR YB HASSAN KARIM MP FOR PASIR GUDANG
In that case, there's no need for us to have jail! Everything just settled with $$$$$$$ will do!!!
KM needs to call anthony to provide advise.
I think that is not necessary. KM is doing fine in terms of playing his role as a committed DAP leader/member in 'educating' mostly what I called 'politically immature' audiences. We should continue to support his political career, because IMHO, he is a very good leader in building a New Malaysia.
Hydrogen economy is a good initiative on the background of cheaper renewable Hydro power in Sarawak. Congrats Swak Premier !
DAP should help pmx
I am surprised to hear racial tensions are minimal in that part of the country. When I heard about Lim Guan Eng got the Penang house at a steep discount, I felt sad and disgusted that he is no different from Najib. Anthony Loke's criticism gets whacked harder by Kian Ming.
Yes, LGE is a fool! He proven it!
He can continue to be a fool to think the Chinese will forgive him!
All politicians are the same. Once holding power for long, they think the party is beholden to them.They become high handed and bully younger and aspirant politicians. For a Secretary General to slam views of a member as 'rubbish' is demeaning and hitting below the belt. Voters expect leaders to be less toxic when making such remarks in Public. Voters are having second thoughts of senior members in DAP.
LGE no difference from Najib? Are you sure? The amount is 5000 times different
There is one similarity. Both charged for alleged corruption in Court. @@grey4959
Listening to Kian Ming's side of the story, he was sidelined because somebody was not receptive of his suggestions. It is good for the party's image. Taking a leaf from LSL, the Singapore PM, he said, 'When you wear white, you must be white. In fact should be whiter than white. This is a strong message to political parties that wear white uniforms. Well said by PAP icon.
Hey guys pls put in timestamp…
KM's leadership is needed for Strategic Management of the nation long term direction, and to fine tune it specifically where reforms promised are causing people to loose trust in the PH manifesto.
44:10 imo, one of the easiest and cheapest way is for fahmi to find a really good graphic designing team to compile all the good thing into like a yearly PDF. Useinteresting graphics, seperate each segment by ministry, oh this ministry done this and that during this month, how this particular change affect certain thing in a positive way.
It was done on a weekly basis at some point with "minggu ini apa?" or something that tell this week what government have done. (this bill was proposed, certain FDI was signed , new rules to ease the rakyat etc)
Like come on lah, fahmi. This thing is the simplest way to communicate the government effort, XXX say macam government no do anything one, then slap him with this pdf done. WHY CAN"T PH BE BETTER AT COMMUNICATING, IT SO FRUSTRATING.
Like just look at quality of Zafrul communication team compared to PH non-existing ones. Always is generic useless respond that doesn't say anything and then sensationalized by the media.
47:30 19:30 18:00 51:48
since under dap's cec system, the member with the most votes still have to go through those who are originally already part of cec to get elected for position, doesn't that make dap less democratic and give opportunity for certain individuals to control the cec and effectively block other challengers to take the position
with all due respect, despite being a dap fanboy, this could be a flaw that could be exploited by individuals with malicious intent
Kian Meng's friendly advice was taken in bad faith by LGE. Forget about about him and Anthony and chart your course in politics. You are young and young voters respect you for your insights for a better Malaysia.
Can you give a good reason for KM to take your advice?
I don't have to@@adamiskandar5107
He says We need a PM in DAP, kena sound lol
If UMNO leaves the unity government now its better because we now the nos. UMNO TOP LEADERS IN PARTICULAR YOUTH ARE LIKE SAMSENG. WITH SMALL NO OF MP'S IN PARLIMENT THEY LIKE TO THROW THEIR WEIGHT. THEY MUST BE GIVEN THE CONSTITUTION & THE REAL HISTORY OF MALAYA/MALAYSIA BOOKS TO READ AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH.
😅😅😅😅😅 2.0
UMNO 2.0 is PKR 😅
The Perak duo is really damn good in scoring own goals.
Scoring goals the wrong way to the discomfort of other parties.Surprising for politicians who have years of experience but still lack maturity. Voters are watching.
PEter, if you want to have class, you have to be like Anthony Loke.
All politcians being dropped by their party are all the same. They never keep quite. But Anthony keep quite in doing his job.
thanks for agreeing with Kian Meng 😊
18:50- 20:45 this is a very good point that i wish was in more in the minds of msians, this part should be into tik tok!
With regards to Najib and his "discounted" pardon. How does these benefit the people? What happens to the billions that has already being 'sapu'? Is it right to allow a convict to/and after a couple of years in prison to keeps all that was stolen?..And will he enjoy the palimentary perks and pensions when he's freed? These are the ??? with the people in the street...
Just asking, would Sarawak reap some benefits from the Indonesia's capital to Kalimantan?
OT guys~ question for Mr.Money, Peter~ what's wrong with using Malaysia way of calling yourself “Peter” instead of American accent Peter? 😅 very weird of keep on emphasizing Peter the American accent… 0:21
Like it or not，politics in Malaysia is about Malay politics, you cannot govern Malaysia without majority Malay support.
Not really! Now Sarawak & Sabah had uprise!
a creative advertisement
It would make more sense to have a consensus amongst your peers rather than individual opinion.
Surprised that this talk is veering off, somehow led by certain adverse general comments..
May seem to be washing dirty linen but it is good to know why capable and aspiring young members were sidelined by the older ones.
I rather it be like this. Siapa makan cili rasa pedas. How he said it was not in a negative manner, its more objective. But whats important is to speak up.
Also alot of this podcast highlighted that current issue is comms. Even good is being done but no comms.
Human nature, need to be kept being reminded.
For 72 years MCA has allowed his elder brother to robbed this country as he pleased. But this robbery did not end and has passed the problems of debt recovery to DAP to resolve.
Najib's case is agony and injustice seen as imbecilic and frivolity.
Or you prefer pn or pas as government?
very good discussion
Kg muhibbah is more appropriate with multi ethnic msian.
DAP now, is focusing on developing Penang and SElangor. The rest, let Anwar handle. The Chinese is only 20% of the population and Malay consist of 95% of civil servants. How much can a Chinese political party do? DAP still need a Malay partner to handle the civil servants and many Malay issues.
Every One should be interested and excited to help PMX to shut the corruption problems and all these can go or how much can go to ease the country's debts though he does not need your help so far. It is good to see him nailing Tun M and Tun Daim and Tun M's children. How did they get so much wealth. Taib is another important issue. If PMX wins and he can give penalties our country's debt can be erased and our Ringgit will do well like USD dollar so meantime help him to manage the country's resources and economy. This is best. Too many parties and DAP other than Hannah Yeoh, Lake Siew Fook and some some others are good but not the rest. It is a waste of country's monies.
House cleaning ........ hahah my foot. Taib Mahmud was dying. that is why Taib mahmud has to go..... Now Taib Mahmud is dead. They will go after his children's wealth.
👍👍👍
Heard of Art of War?
Yep, no point fighting battles, in order to lose the war
I'm a staunch supporter of DAP. There is no party to vote for in GE16.
I bet none of the political leaders eould consult widely...all are for their own interest be it DSAI, Anthony or OCBC LGE...all these guys are simply lack of self cinfidence or just arrogant ..
Not easy for Dap to move around in the political arena, where some politicians still living inthe jungle.Still new 😢in the government,a lot of government servants are playing cards around.Dap can't afford to silly mistakes around.
Is it just me or Kian Meng subtly trying to rationalize the 160M discount?
Does this PODcast really need or you PODcaster confusing "Rakyat" ?? Including KJ/Shahril !!!
