a) “ We are not against the project as we want LRT in the area. We just want it to be relocated to a safer location,” said Afideen . Taman Subang Alam resident committee member Afideen Azali said the station to be built on their site will sit on Tenaga Nasional Berhad’s (TNB) Right of Way (ROW).

b) The Election Commission (EC) has identified nine state assembly constituencies as 'hot seats' during the April 16 Sarawak state election, said EC deputy chairman Datuk Wan Ahmad Wan Omar.
The constituencies are Pantai Damai, Kota Sentosa, Batu Kawa, Kedup, Repok, Palawan, Nangka and the Balingian seat to be contested by Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.
“ The opposition can only talk and suggest this and that. The thing is they have not proven themselves, unlike the present government,” Taib said. Minister of Public Utilities Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hassan, who is also Second Minister of Planning and Resource Management , said this in response to allegations that power tariffs in the state were more expensive than in Semenanjung Malaysia.
“ The government absorbed the cost of RM 9.6 million to enable between 70,000 to 80,000 people enjoy free electricity if their consumption was RM 20 or below monthly,” he said.
c) The latest Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) report on the country credit card debt proves that the Government’s introduction of a RM50 tax for every principal card holder and a RM25 tax on a supplementary card holder has failed to reduce the population’s credit card debt in January 2010.
So the question is RM 50 credit card tax should be charged if it manage to reduce the population's credit card debt ? Most people has already cancel their stand-by ( seldom use ) 2-to-3 credit card after the tax announced . So the number of credit card in hand has reduced , not the amount of their credit card outstanding balance has reduce . Even want to tax , should based on credit limit , eg first RM 10 or FREE for first RM 5,000 credit limit , barulah second RM 50 on next RM 5,000 credit limit , dan sebagainya .

There should be a balance between rich and poor. Since the rich can show their LV bags and shoes around , where the poor usually source from pasar malam , impose tax on luxury items like designer brands.
" Tidak apa....kita boleh tax rakyat lagi sebelum PRU ".... Like I tell all my friends... " you first day living in Malaysia ah? " ... Taxing the rich too much will only drive them away and stagnant the economy ... so taxing the poor one ..... loan shark will help them with red paint - Gong Xi Fa Chai 2012 ... so advance ?

g) A check by The Star found that these advertisements on taxis would offer personal or “easy” loans. Some would even feature a chart on the repayment schedule . Taxis which carry such advertisements have been seen in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Puchong, Subang Jaya, Shah Alam and Klang. The telephone numbers provided on the advertisements are local lines. These so-called licensed moneylenders charge interest rates of 25% to 33.3% a month. And just like loan sharks, these “licensed” ones resort to intimidating tactics such as taking possession of the borrowers' bank account books or ATM cards.When the reporters asked for a RM3,000 loan, Billy said the company would only release RM2,250 while the balance would cover processing fees.
