@NewsBFM Reverse Takeover political type

🚨BREAKING: Former PKR leaders Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi have announced their takeover of the Malaysian United Party as their new political platform. MUP, or Parti Bersama Malaysia, is a little-known Penang-based party that was officially registered in December 2016.

@hwabeng Not unexpected. All parties will go on their own. PH, BN, PN, Bersatu, Rafizi's party, Hamzah's party, 3rd force, dan lain lain. Multi cornered fights assured

“BN to contest all 56 seats at next Johor election.” Now DAP got 10 seats,PKR 2 & Amanah 1. Mean BN decided to go alone in next GE! freemalaysiatoday.com/category/natio…

@1AmyChew If we had RON95 sold at market prices and added a 50 sen tax on it, I am sure it will. Dont blame the public. Fact that we have long traffic jams even at off-peak hours explains a lot

@NewsBFM We shld not even subsidised, let alone put a cap on the quantum to be subsidised. Its ridiculous for a net oil importing country to subsidies fuel

Deputy Finance Minister Liew Chin Tong has dismissed reports that he said Putrajaya is considering a reduction of the monthly subsidised RON95 fuel quota under the BUDI95 programme to 150 litres. He said his remarks were made in the context of broader global energy challenges and domestic fuel management considerations. 🧵1

@khalidkarim Go check out the remuneration package of Capital A founders for FY2025 in their annual report.

In Malaysia, CEO salaries are fully tax-deductible as business expenses. Fair enough. But should a company really be allowed to deduct RM20 million CEO pay while paying workers RM2,000/month? Proposal: Executive pay above RM2 million/year should NOT be tax-deductible. Anything above the cap gets added back to taxable income. If companies want extreme executive pay, pay for it from profits ~ not subsidised through the tax system. GINI32

@staronline Thanks for sharing my column to the readers. Here is the downloaded version:

Sharing my thoughts on #GE16 and why it will be a multi-cornered battles for almost every seat with the likelihood of no outright winner. It will likely be another form of unity government, depending on seats won by major forces. For now, all eyes on @anwaribrahim

@staronline Most Malaysians will tend to disagree. If you had given the best, you would have not lost the game against the Chinese pair in the first game, while the decision to split you and Wooi Yik was tue dumbest one, especially the lost against the Japanese 2nd pair. Losing when leading!

@elerianm There is lack of confidence in Walsh as he even thinks current inflation gauge is not appropriate. Will he move the needle to accomodate Trump's call for rate cuts?

The most interesting aspect of today’s Federal Reserve (FOMC) meeting—where interest rates will be left as is—will be the Chair’s press conference. This is likely Jerome Powell’s final meeting as Chair, given that the Senate Banking Committee is expected to approve Kevin Warsh’s nomination today. Lots of questions arise, including 1. Will Chair Powell repeat the defiant tone of his dramatic January video? 2. What will he signal regarding speculation that he may remain on the Fed’s Board of Governors? (While his tenure as Chair is scheduled to end on May 15, his term as a Governor lasts until January 2028.) #economy #markets #federalreserve #centralbanks

@BRICSinfo How to give up what one doesn't have?

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 President Trump says there will be no deal unless Iran gives up nuclear weapons.

@saysdotcom What a misleading headline when jobs created are far more than retrenchment and 24.1k workers is just 0.15% below of total employment

@ImBreckWorsham Netanhayu is the 47th US President.

Benjamin Netanyahu now says the Trump administration reports directly to him. They aren't even trying to hide it anymore.

@SpencerHakimian It made hom and those aroind his circle a great fortune by taking positions in the financial markets

It’s truly impressive. In 12 months, Trump single handedly caused the 2 biggest self inflicted disasters - Tariffs and the Iran War - in all of American history. Record breaking incompetence.
