Your average anime/manga junkie, I'm one sadistic and cynical bastard who will make your life hell(behind you anyway)if you get on the wrong side of me. grumpy and emo at times, i can be a real bitch but a pretty good friend(i suppose) and brother. meow.
In the New Straits Times some unknown minister(to me at least) said:" isn't it better to have one fuel hike then seperate ones like last year?"
which brings me to the conclusion how stupid people in our government really are.
its the friggin start of the year and already theres a hike in the petrol- 30cents more, which means for this WHOLE year we're gonna have to pay 30cents more. As compared to last year, there were 3 seperate hikes- which meant that at least the increase was gradual and so overall we would have paid less last year.Seriously, either they think we people of the public are stupid and we cant do simple maths or they can't do maths.
on top of that i think i pity the lorry companies and hawker stalls. The government are disallowing them to increase prices- although thats good for me, but these supressed people have families and such to look after too? with the fuel hike, cost prices are gonna increase, no doubt but if you don't increase the price of services such as lorry transportation and such the how can they possibly profit?what kind of free market is that?
all these problems, bear in mind are caused by the fuel hike.Why? Because the government can no longer subsidise the fuel prices for us. Whats the reason? they say because fuel prices are rising at a fast rate. I don't think its a valid reason at all.Petronas are earning profits- and its a government controlled company isn't it?So how bout we forget about sponsoring F1 teams and plough back this pile of money to subsidise the petrol prices?
or wait, how about this- we could also stop trying to save Malaysian Airlines or Bank Bumi who are both in the red.This two companies should be trying to loan money or something to save themselves, not having the government use people's TAX money to save their asses. I for one don't give a shit if Bank Bumi collapses. they're in the red by millions, does this mean that the people's money are gonna be used to save them?HELL no i think not, Bank Bumi has got freaking nothing to do with me or my family.
Malaysian Airlines- you would wonder why they're in the red too. Well i'll tell you a short story- this is what i heard from my cousin who studies in London. His term ended and he had booked an economy class ticket back to KL. MAS, however, somehow allowed the ticketing system to be overbooked and he was left without an econmy class ticket back to KL.As the whole plane was fully booked, this was what MAS offered my cousin- a stay for the night at a decent london hotel with 200pounds spending money, with hotel eating expenses paid.Tell me, how can MAS NOT lose money if this happens everyday?
lets do a little calculation- Decent hotel room(average)- £150.00 Spending money- £200.00 Total- £350.00
£350X 6.8= RM2380
suppose 15 people around the globe riding malaysian airlines recieve this "compensation" everyday-
RM2380X 15= RM35700
and so in a year-
RM35700x 365= RM13,030,500
that is a WHOOPING 13million malaysian ringgit lost, just because of poor planning on their part. Wouldn't you agree with me if i said the only thing right about them now is how correctly named they are- ManaAdaSystem
