THREAD | Why I’m still an optimist after a year of Sheraton coup

Before I delve deeper into this, we must first answer the question: was the 2018 win a fluke or an outcome of our electoral structure? (1/16)

Of the 165 seats in the Peninsula, the grand opposition won 55 seats in 3 consecutive elections ('08,'13,'18). 10 more seats were won consecutively for 2 terms ('13,'18). If a general election is called today, these 65 seats would likely be secured by the grand opposition. (2/16)

UMNO won 46 seats in the Peninsula in the last election when it was at its lowest. It will probably win those 46 seats relatively comfortably, even if it has to battle Bersatu or PAS. (3/16)

The Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) is a type of warship capable of patrolling Malaysia’s maritime zone, fighting other enemy surface ships and submarines, and providing defence against air attacks at sea. (1/8)

As a modern surface combatant, it will provide Malaysia with much needed modern naval combat capabilities, especially in a time where aggressive intrusions are being carried out in our maritime spaces. (2/8)

It is one of five different ship types identified by the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) in its capability development plan, the 15-to-5 Transformation Program.

The program intends to consolidate the RMN’s inventory of 15 different ship types to only five. (3/8)

1) Two meetings in, no clear strategy has been seen coming out of the NEC, nor was there one in Budget 2021. Is the new MyDigital plan part of this? Which other sectors and activities will contribute to the 500,000 new jobs to be created this year?

2) Relying on the old recipes (FDI, low cost manufacturing) will no longer work, especially after the pandemic. Decent jobs with decent wages are the most important issue that the rakyat are concerned about now.

3) Instead of feel-good numbers without substance, we need a comprehensive review of our labour market and bold thinking with an eye to the future.
