State of the Nation : Donald Trump

THOSE who are opposing Donald Trump's visit to Malaysia, and want the Madani Government to either bar the  American president from visiting Malaysia or to treat him as a pariah, should be seen for what they are.

BUT  first to recap, READ : US President scheduled to visit Malaysia this October, is a visit which will give Malaysia millions of US dollar worth of free publicity on the global stage, that will help boost investments as well as provide a fresh dimension to our tourism sector.

THOSE who are attempting to pressure the Malaysian Government to act irrationally by staging  READ : mass protest, should be seen for what they are ; an enemy of the state, and like wise be treated as such.

CONSIDER the following, U.S. goods and services trade with Malaysia, reached an estimated USD$86.5 billion in 2024.

IN  Ringgit terms,  this amounts to RM365 billion, which comes out to some 92 per cent of our 2025 national budget of VIEW : RM393.8 billion.

CAN any one of those demonstrators, some of whom are foreign funded please fork out RM365 billion in cash before, they force the nation to commit harakiri?
