My comments : Who asked you to incur so much debt idiot?
And if 1MDB is such a great investment, if it is so profitable, then why worry about 1MDB not being able to pay its debts? Just use the billions of profits that 1MDB is making and settle all the debts. Why complain that if 1MDB debts are not paid then Malaysians will all suffer? Why put the burden on the people? Husni Hanadzlah should just resign. Najib should resign as well.
In 1998 the entire Asian region was hit by the money speculators particularly George Soros. Thailand was hit before us, also South Korea and Indonesia. They all suffered from the Asian Contagion.
This time the other Asian economies are much stronger and robust. The Phillipine economy is racing ahead, the strongest economy in ASEAN.
Only Malaysia is facing bankruptcy because the Advisor to 1MDB has been conned by a 29 year old Chinese boy.
RM42 Billion of taxpayers money has disappeared. RM27 Billion has literally gone out the window.
RM2.6 Billion was paid to Jho Low for nothing. That was stolen money.
The remaining RM15 Billion has been used to buy end of shelf life and "license almost expired" power plants at exhorbitant prices - way above market value. That money is also almost as good as gone.
In 1998 the country's economy was strong. Despite the Asian Financial Crisis the government had enough money to pay all its debts. Our credit ratings were never downgraded by Moody's or by anyone else.
We recovered well and went on to record 7%, 8% and even 9% growth. Now we can barely get past 5% growth.
This is not the fault of the Malaysian people. This is the fault of the clueless morons who are our prime minister and the members of the Cabinet. Including Husni Hanadzlah.
These people must be held accountable for this gross incompetence, dishonesty and stupidity.
