Q&A with Tun Mahathir

Dear SDCians..

Here are the extension from the leadership talk by our respected Tun Mahathir:

1) Why Jews are so powerful?

  • Jews invented banking. That is how they make their enemy rely on them

  • Bank can lend money in an amount of 10X of their assets.

  • Jews know the vital point of the enemy. They are minority but strong.

2) What is the situation between Government and our education system?

  • Government spend 25% of government expenditure in education

  • However, government does not utilize the knowledge in application

  • E.g: US invented transistor, but Japan fully utilize it in application.

3) What happen in the recent financial crisis?

  • In 1997, M'sia government bailout companies but they are still demand for products and services from these companies.

  • Now, bailout cannot be work because whole world is in financial crisis

  • Subprime= bank lend more than it supposed to be.

4) Why universities in Singapore outperform Malaysia's universities?

  • Singapore has no constraint in terms community

  • Singapore can afford to make sacrifice by only accepting top students

  • Malaysia need to consider disparity of community

  • M'sia universities should not favor any race in particular for the position of Vice-Chancellor

5) What are the advices to the current Malaysia's leaders?

  • Leadership by example

  • No nepotism/favorism

  • Help people who can succeed

  • Don't spend lavishly, this will help to avoid corruption.
