Najib: Sugar subsidy cut good for your sex life

your say, YoursayAnonymous #67694451: Please, this sugar subsidy cut is to benefit Umno cronies. Please check who is controlling the sugar industries now, after Robert Kuok was forced to withdraw.

Siang Malam: That's all PM Najib Abdul Razak thinks of all the time, sex, even when national debt is going to hit 54.8 percent of GDP.

ZhangFei: I think he was taking too much sugar last time, resulting poor sex performance. Ha ha ha, poor fellow... poor performer.

Kawak: This is the only PM in the world who uses sex as a humour. What filth is in his mind, we do not know. PM Najib Abdul Razak is a Muslim leader of a Muslim country. Every year, in his budget speeches, he throws in sarcasm against his political foes. But he dares not debate with them head on. I am not sure whether he is a coward...

Hearty Malaysian: Najib cut the subsidy for people but continues to spend so much money on government operating expenditures. Savings from petrol subsidies are wasted through additional expenses in handouts and excessive expenditures through corruption.

Lie2me: Oh, wow!! A new discovery by our own PM. Next time you go to the UN, tell the world this discovery please...

Black Mamba: PM Najib, GST is overall good for the country, but unnecessary mega projects without direct benefits to the rakyat are bad on the country's finances. Wawasan 2020 building will not serve any positive direct or indirect benefits to the people with the glut of new, tall commercial buildings in the city. The erection of this tallest tower in the country will only stroke your ego and will eventually drain the country's resources.

JungleMonkey: What is the physiology behind sugar and erectile dysfunction? Care to explain to us Najib? Please quote where you get such information from? Thank you

Mohamad Abdul Malik: The prime minister was right on the 'libido' thing. He really needs to keep it under control, at least for him, personally.

Unspin: When Felda first bought Robert Kuok's Malayan Sugar Mills for RM1.5 billion in 2009, the price of sugar was about RM1.40 per kilogramme. With the latest removal of the subsidy, the price has gone up 200 percent in four years.

It is obvious that Felda has recouped its investment of RM1.5 billion, plus a lot more. The reasons given for the price increase, such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney failure and low libido, are just red herrings to camouflage the looting that is going on behind the scenes.

SSRAVI: Must ask Rosmah! This fellow cannot even understand basic economics but is talking about medicine!! What a joke!

Banzai: Hello PM, the increase in sugar price not only affects teh tarik but other items such the confectionery business, bread, cakes, etc. What you can think of is only sex, that's all. Typical of Umno members.

Foo: Wow, now our PM is a sex therapist!

Bumiasli: Removing subsidies really hurts the people as it means more overheads. Things like petrol and sugar are used by everybody, regardless of class. Instead of providing solutions, the PM is giving lame excuses to cover his foolishness.

Too much salt is also harmful and too much money makes one greedy for power. Whether it affects your libido or not, you have screwed us all up.

Versey Aiyoyo!: PM, please, how could you use the public forum to convey this message to your darling wife? Judging from her figure, you seemed to have "unwittingly" embarrassed her, you know! "Alla-mah"!

Onyourtoes: PM Najib, I think you got it all wrong. The opposition did not oppose just for the sake of opposing. Why don't you try revamping the subsidies to corporations, get rid of all the cronies, review and renegotiate all the moronic privatisation concessions and remove all the Approved Permits requirements to see whether the opposition is supportive of your policies or not.

For example, you have withdrawn the sugar subsidy, but did you remove the AP requirement to import sugar? You can't remove the subsidy but continue to allow monopolies to thrive. That is not market economy. That is selective market economy.

Small town boy: Fools always give foolish reasons for their actions.

Old timer: How much more embarrassment does Malaysia have to suffer? Instead of good analysis and plans to cut corruption and wasteful spending, they can only come up with stupid reasons and jokes. Are there no good men in BN who can talk like statesmen? Why do we get all the clowns? Plus those from Indonesia and India...

Well Thats Fantastic: I keep asking this question and it has not been answered: why is BN so interested in everyone else's sex lives? Our PM is depraved, going by this statement. How low will they go?

Fateh: Ha ha ha. What a brilliant reason to hike sugar price. We have two big stooges leading this cowboy country. No wonder the country is digressing, not progressing!

Fair Play: The more they open their mouths to impart their wisdom and knowledge, the more ludicrous it becomes.

Dalvik: And, in the name of endless possibilities, subsidies for cooking oil will be removed because obesity is a serious issue in Malaysia, too.
