Najib had in the past asked us to change our lifestyles and most people told him to change his first.
Now as PM, he had done the same thing through Idris Jala, warning us that the country would be bankrupt by 2019. But as someone pointed out, he said we could achieve developed status by 2020! A bankrupt developed country within a year!
Before the people would accept any advice on lifestyles, the leaders should show by example but what we see are more and more wastages and leakages through mismanagement.
In The Sunday Times, I spotted this
Liam Byrne, the outgoing Labour budget chief, left a note to his successor saying,
'I'm afraid there is no money. Kind regards and good luck.'
At the rate we are going with unnecessary arms purchase and other big items expenditure without open tenders, the above statement could well be Najib's to Anwar if they are going to lose in the next General Elections!
