Government should be blamed for people’s health, not lifestyle. Health of persons is affected by physical, socio-economic, cultural and political factors. It is generally accepted that the socio-economic factors – especially education and income – are the most important determinant of population health status. Poor people with limited education generally have poor health. People with poor education normally will have problems to get proper job with stable income to help them to maintain their health. They simply could not get good and nutritious food to take care of their bodies. Had the government realize this?
With a national debt of over RM1 trillion and a country riddled by massive corruption for decades and an ailing economy, it is not an easy task for the prime minister and his cabinet to clear the mess created by past administrations. The issues of high profile criminals who are still at large, the forced disappearance of activists including preachers, discrimination of minorities, the politicisation of race and religion which created much racial and religious tensions are also areas that the current government under the premiership of Dato Seri Anwar Sri Anwar has to tackle.

The budget for Sarawak is increased about RM1 billion from previous budgets but Sarawak government should not be happy with the increment because Sarawakians are not happy.

What had Dato Sri Fadillah Yusuf done so far concerning the implementation of the terms and conditions of the Malaysia Agreement 1963(MA63) despite the fact the orders had been given by the honourable prime minster Dato Sri Anwar Ibrahim to him in this task? The prime minister had given him one month to fulfill all terms and conditions therein but things had not been moving well to the expectation of the people. Sabahan and Sarawakians have a right to demand a report from him of actions taken by him.
The federal Transport Minister’s idea of no more display of road tax stickers on private vehicles may save lots of money for the government. The government would eventually no need to issue the road tax stickers but only receipts for payment made to motor vehicle owners.

The Sarawak GPS and Sabah GRS governments have already pointed out this problem to the Prime Minister.
History told us wars are not good as wars can have bad effect on the economy. The year 2023 will likely be gloomy if the war in Ukarine will not end soon.

The quit rent for land and landed or commercial properties to be increased effective from 1 January 2023 is not justified at present economic situation. Businesses are yet to pick up caused by Covid-19.
