Mukhriz hits out at Guan Eng, Azmin

ALOR SETAR, Jan 27 — Deputy International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir ticked off the opposition parties today for refusing to recognise the successes of the government in attracting billions of ringgit in foreign investment.
He said the opposition parties had instead continued to discredit the government and harp on the issue of illicit financial outflows.
“How could they discredit the country. Are they qualified to lead the country?” he told reporters when asked to comment on the report by Global Financial Integrity, a Washington-based financial watchdog, which ranks Malaysia as among the countries which registered the highest illicit financial outflows over a period of nine years in the last decade.
He earlier met the Chinese community in Air Hitam in conjunction with the coming Chinese New Year.
He also ticked off Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, saying Lim had claimed credit for the RM12 billion investments by two American companies in Penang.
“We know that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and International Trade and Industry Minister (Datuk Mustapa Mohamed) had met with the two companies to bring them to invest in Malaysia,” he said.
To a question, he described Parti Keadilan Rakyat deputy president Mohamed Azmin Ali as rude and ungrateful.
Mohamed Azmin, in speech when debating the Selangor state constitution amendment on Monday, had called Dr Mahathir “mamak bendahara” — a term that refers to senior official in old Malay kingdoms. — Bernama

tunku : the morons in pakatan always take the credits from bn's effort. like in penang, it is so obvious that the investors came in thru the federal government initiative and the moron guan eng claims to the people it was his effort. we hope the federal government release a list of investors came in thru their effort so that these morons won't simply take the credits.recently the amcham too said that they are investing more because of the federal government policies not the state's government policies like selangor and penang. regarding azmin what else can be said about him. a person that can "give" his wife to his boss can do anything for personal gain. he is an ungrateful piece of ****.

Yes billions are coming in. But billions are also going out in the form of urequited transfers. These are transfers for which there are no documnets or invoices to support the transfers. If we are not careful we will come under the AMLA and will become target for attack by US and other countries in the First world.

I fully appreciate your efforts to look at Malaysia from the point of view that the glass is half full and tell it as it is.The opposition too is wrong just to view Malaysia from the point of view that the glass is half empty. But there is the 80% of the people who are out there who feel that the glass is half empty. They to must have a voice in our quest to become a High Income Nation.

Blogs like yours must try and find this middle ground otherwise it will become a dialogue of the deaf. There are many issues the Government is yet to explain. You cannot have a situation where the PM wants a Department to make a statement and a Deputy Minister says that thare is no need to make a statement.We must run this country in an orderly fashion with minimum re working on issues. Thank You.
