| 2012 Chinese New Year Message (National) Posted: 21 Jan 2012 08:31 PM PST DAP 2012 Chinese New Year Message By DAP Secretary-General And MP For Bagan Lim Guan Eng On 22.1.2012 In Kuala Lumpur. Only Economic Policies That Are Clean, Fair, Competitive And Improves The Well-being Of The People As Well As Attract Back Talented Malaysians Can Help Transform Malaysia Into A High-Income Nation Enjoyed By All. Present policies which are corrupt, opaque with no open tenders and benefits only certain cronies would only bring Malaysia backwards. A good comparison is South Korea. In 1970, Malaysia's Gross National Income(GNI) per capita was USD 380 as compared to South Korea USD 260. But 40 years later in 2010, Malaysia's GNI per capita was at USD 7,760 Malaysia's failure to compete is compounded by the horde of Malaysians leaving. Even the BN government concedes that 2 million Malaysians have left the country since Merdeka in 1957. Countless Malaysians have PR in foreign countries including present Ministers and former Ministers. No one blames the 2 million Malaysians for leaving when the present policies stresses more on politics of division and hate than results-oriented performance drive our best and brightest away. A recent example is the unfair, harsh and humiliating treatment of temporary Chinese primary school teachers by reducing their benefits arbitrarily without any consultation. How much will it cost the Federal government to continue maintaining existing benefits or even increasing them to temporary teachers? I doubt that such costs will exceed the RM250 million National Feedlot Corporation scandal where money meant for rearing cows is used instead to purchase luxury condos. Why allow the few cronies to earn extraordinary profits at the expense of 28 million Malaysians. For instance, it took RM 6 billion to build the North-South Highway. But the toll operators have collected RM 24.3 billion as at 31.12.2010 and yet can continue to collect toll till end 2038 and increase toll every year! As the toll operators have already made RM18.3 billion in profits, there is no reason why toll can not be abolished. Even more talented Malaysians will leave if BN continues to blame the Chinese and minorities for the federal government's failed policies or use the Chinese threat to frighten the Malays. How can the Chinese be a threat to Malays when critical economic sectors such as banking, insurance, ports, highway toll concessions and infrastructure, transport, automotive industry, IPPs, sugar, rice, flour, plantation products, oil and gas are dominated by Malays? We must grow up believing in our abilities, trusting each other and have faith that Malays and non-Malays can be world champions. Malays and non-Malay kids must grow up respecting each other as Malaysians and hating only corruption. 2000-9 is the lost decade of corruption where RM1,077 billion of "black money" was illicitly and secretly taken out of Malaysian. Enough is enough! Let us implement policies that will stop corruption, wipe out poverty, attract back Malaysian talents so that Malaysia can be a high-income nation enjoyed by everyone regardless of race, religion or gender. Let us welcome the Year of the Dragon by implementing policies that are clean, fair, competitive and improves our standard of living. —-Mandarin Translation — 唯有廉政、公平、竞争力及改善人民生活、吸引人才回国，马来西亚才可能转型成为人人共享繁荣的高收入国。 是时候推行廉政、公平、竞争力及改善人民生活的经济政策，吸引人才回国，马来西亚才可能转型成为人人共享繁荣的高收入国。让我们在水龙年踏出第一步，于来届大选让"万象更新"，好让全民可以在2020年享受国家繁荣。 没有公开招标、只让特定朋党受益，现行政策腐败、不透明，只会让马来西亚越来越落后。最好的比较例子就是韩国。1970年，马来西亚人均收入为380美元，韩国是260美元。2010年既40年后，马来西亚的人均收入为7760美元，而韩国已经超越我们三倍，达1万9890美元（世界银行报告）。 马来西亚无法竞争，也导致大批马来西亚离开这个国家。就连国阵政府也承认，自1957年独立以来，已有200万马来西亚人离开。无数的国人在外国拥有永久居留权，包括我们的现任及前任部长。我们不怪这200万移民的马来西亚人，因为是现有那种导致分裂及制造仇恨的政策，把我们最好、最聪明的国民逼走。 最新的例子就是，政府独断地减少华小临教的福利，让他们遭受不公平、冷酷及侮辱的对待。联邦政府若维持临教的福利甚至增加他们的福利，会花他们多少钱？我怀疑这笔费用是否超过国家养牛中心丑闻2亿5000万令吉？这笔原本应该用来养牛的钱，被滥用来购买豪华公寓。 为什么我们要牺牲全体2800万国民的利益，让几个朋党赚取额外好处？例如：南北大道承建费为60亿令吉。但是收费站在2010年12月31日已经收取了243亿令吉。它们不但可以继续收费到2038年，而且还可以年年调高过路费！既然收费站已经赚了183亿令吉，为什么不能废除收费站？ 如果国阵继续怪罪华人及少数民族，不正视本身失败的政策，或者用华人来威胁马来人，更多马来西亚人才将会移民。当许多重要的经济领域如银行、保险、港口、汽车、独立发电厂、白糖、白米、面粉、种植业、石油及天然气都已经被马来人主导，华人如何威胁马来人？ 我们要相信自己的能力、互相信任、要有信心，无论是 马来人或非马来人都可以成为世界冠军。马来人或非马来人的孩子都必须在相互尊重、视彼此为马来西亚人的情况下成长，他们只能仇视贪污。2000年至2009年间，我们因贪污而导致1兆7700万令吉黑钱外流。 够了，让我们实施能够除贪、扶贫、吸引人才回国的政策，打造马来西亚可以成为一个各族、各宗教或男女老少都能分享繁荣的国家。 林冠英 |
