My Comments :
The govt fellows really have no clue what to do about the economy. They are being led by Mr Clueless. Can the economy withstand four more years of this level of incompetence?
The US Dollar is holding steady at RM4.79 today. How many billions of foreign reserves is Bank Negara burning to keep the Ringgit from tumbling over RM4.80?
There are other things going on. Something has to crack. This cannot go on for ever.
