Dear Minister, also check out these items: kismis doa, coklat doa, the various ubat kuat and ubat ketat. Too many in the market, were they all properly tested for side effects and effectiveness?

I agree with the author. Opposition supporters can be rabid and irrational sometimes.

Obviously DAP will not be calling for freedom of speech if they form a new government with PR.

The supersized PM department tells one thing: The PM doesn't trust the ministers/ministries to d a good job, since as the writer pointed out, almost every ministry is shadowed by a department under the PMO.

At 53.7 percent of the GDP that is actually a lot to pay. Does this include the recently announced handouts? If we can only afford to pay the interest, at what point will we start paying for the principal? Are you leaving this debt for the younger / future generations to pay for, at some time when you and your cohorts are dead and gone? As a young Malaysian, this can only mean higher cost of living, more taxes (maybe not now but definitely in the foreseeable future), on top of the fact that I will never be able to afford a house anymore, and a decent car will put me in debt for 9 years.

I don't like what the future holds for me in Malaysia.

Sorry but i think there are holes in your logic. It MAY have the same chemical composition but the battery pack for an all-electric car is many, many times bigger than a cellphone battery or a 12v battery in a petrol car. Bigger battery packs means more demand for rare earth materials like lithium, etc. even if you can recycle the chemicals (I doubt it) there won't be enough recycled chemicals to fulfill the demand. and don't forget the environmental impact to mine/refine the chemicals, and to manufacture these battery packs.

I also have to agree with the practicality of owning one if you live in an apartment. The author raised a very valid and pertinent point on this.

In the long run, hydrogen cars are probably more environmentally friendly overall, but it is currently hampered by the lack of refueling infrastructure.
