A move that speaks a lot

You know the RM5b (that’s RM5,000,000,000) which the govt said EPF will lend to this company called ValueCap to buy undervalued stocks? It’s turning into quite a ruckus with arguments coming from all sides…

But you know what?

It’s not about EPF being our money and we should be consulted before spending the RM5b… it’s not about that…

It’s not about poor financial market sense that RM5b is not sufficient to boost the market… it’s not about that…

It’s not about how EPF could have invested the RM5b themselves without having to go through ValueCap… it’s not about that…

It’s not about the background and credentials of ValueCap and having to check out ValueCap properly before giving it the loan to buy undervalued shares… it’s not about that…

It’s not about undeserving listen companies and their share value does should not be given redemption… it’s not about that…

It’s beyond all that…

It’s about the fact that a really bad financial tsunami is coming and people are probably going to be out of jobs, some lives may be changed forever, some may even have to jump down buildings in a few months (or weeks) time… and amidst all that, they still have the “heart” to do something like “this”.

To me, that’s what it’s all about… and it speaks a lot.

Let those have eyes see…

don't you know, the way they put it across, it seems that those money are theirs to begin with... in their eyes, it is perfectly alright to do what they are doing...

so yes, it is highly suspicious when they start raiding our retirement monies but do they care?

on the economic front, there is very little this govt can do... their budget is out of whack, they still live in denial and on top of that, they speak of coming out with economic stimulus come nov 4... sigh...
