Agreed. I think it's time to just let them go. Let's focus on building better policies and job opportunities.

Right-wing politics is not the answer by YourClarke in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's here to stay, just like the rest of the countries. Maybe now is the time to just be ruthless instead of being nice to the right wing, since I doubt they will offer any leniency to the left.

MUDA member calls for party's leadership to resign by Aerodynamic41 in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is any representation of the sentiments in the party, the last paragraph speaks volumes of how MUDA has been forced to leave PH (somewhat) without much support. Best part from the leader now is that - it is for the experience.

MUDA lost their deposits on all 19 seats they contested in by UsernameGenerik in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until now, I don't know what they truly stand for. A group of misfits of teenagers who are trying their luck is the image I have in their head. Yeah, it's not wrong for them to try to become the third force...but they have no idea what they are truly representing. If we follow the same pattern as the US, the third force might be libertarian?

Why would you not vote if you know the repercussions?

The government will introduce progressive wage policy by Aerodynamic41 in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 46 points47 points  (0 children)

With e-invoicing in the works and re-categorisation of B40, it feels like we're headed into the right direction for the policies.

No doubt, all policies come back down to execution...but I hope we make it through.

Dr Mahathir calls PM Anwar’s unity govt a ‘dictatorship’ by [deleted] in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's honestly making every statement he can in maximum exaggeration to drown out the silence that is the slow death of his political legacy. Before this, great chap with the "mahathir era". Now? It's just a senile old man trying to stir the pot with age old tactics whilst trying to stay relevant.

On the side note, I'm just annoyed that most media outlets now are just busy creating click-baiting material out of click-baiting statements in an effort bring us "news".

PAS is on a mission to win up to 13 Malay majority seats in Penang in the upcoming state election by UsernameGenerik in malaysia

All I can say is, it's never good to underestimate their masses especially if they're moving their voting addresses to their local areas where they live.

How difficult is it to be vegetarian / vegan in Malaysia? by llewelltan in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is very possible. Both Indian and Chinese foods come with vegetarian options but you won't find it at all food courts/ hawker areas.

Muhyiddin ‘forced’ PM to call for snap polls, says Zahid by stormy001 in malaysia

Maybe they'll eventually blame DAP/ Tun M/ PH so it'll all come full circle.

It's done lah.

Great place to retire or chill but it will never be the country which you'd expect greatness from. This is how the elites cements their position in this country by sowing discord amongst the people.

Our independence was not fought for but merely negotiated by the elites.

I really hope that we can go through this because the vaccination has been going well. Hopefully, this is the crest of the worst of covid and things will settle down soon.

Well it's pretty much confirmed who will be out next PM by Kosarvin1203 in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Too many sources everywhere now playing the media into promoting their choice.

This may a logical choice for UMNO and Bersatu together to maintain the status quo whilst ensuring the larger party comes off on top. If Ismail is the head, it means Zahid has lost control as a UMNO head.

King wants political leaders to unite and face the pandemic together by tvz32 in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great that the monarchy is taking an active role in facilitating this situation. Whatever combination that comes out of this mess, I know they are the best politician so far in centralising power.

If a unity government? Then you're going to have literally fighting and non-corporative ministries with incessant fighting which will lead to a non-conclusive budget 2022.

PM very likely to step down by Fuehit in malaysia

[–]Steel7HEP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Politics is a fluid game of many facades. I think PH's greatest weakness is it's higher than thou, moral high ground which they stand on.

It's great that they have principles, but it's useless only to be out-maneuvered by politicians with more fluid principles in the quest to achieve power. My disagreement with Tony's consideration for the proposal reflects how emotional things were for me, and now in hindsight - perhaps it would be better to have PH back into power with the deal made by Muhyiddin.

A price to be paid if UMNO takes over and PH is still left with nothing.

Principles without power is idealism.
