Malaysia Running On An Empty Tank

With hardly any innovation, and nothing to contribute to the world.

The Budget 2017, is such a joke, that the people who we sent to parliament to REPRESENT our INTEREST, were busy sitting outside of the Parliament.

This COUNTRY is 3rd largest market for start-ups in the WORLD, and WE are leading a quiet REVOLUTION, that even most Malaysian don't know, that to the OUTSIDE world WE ARE a REAL big BOY and out national budget is taken seriously across Europe and the US.

The PM is correct, this is the age of the digital economy. Malaysia’s successes is on the  BRINK of breaking its cloak of invisibility.
The world has TAKEN notice but when will Joe Malaysia stand up and notice that he actually has got one heck of a BACKYARD.
