I wonder do you realise or not the government sector never consider the after effect like the provide sector. Only negative effects have taken place then they blame this and that.
But what is done cannot be undone. Damage cannot be replaced too.
What will the negative effect after this big push?
Culture aspect in particular ??

Cabbies asked to smile and make visit Malaysia year a success
KUALA LUMPUR: Smile, you've got foreign tourists for company, taxi drivers are told.
Deputy Tourism Minister Datuk Donald Lim wants the cabbies to behave professionally and with courtesy as they were among the first to greet visitors.
“We are targeting more than 20 million tourists for Visit Malaysia Year 2007 (VMY) and taxi drivers must display a good image of the country.
“We need to give a warm and friendly welcome to the travellers.
“All we need to do is smile,” he said.
Lim said the professionalism of taxi drivers were being looked into through refresher courses on courtesy and public service under the “Malaysia Welcomes the World” campaign.
Over 20,000 front liners nationwide, including hoteliers and immigration officers would also be taking the course, he said after putting VMY2007 stickers on Sunlight taxis on Monday.
Lim said apart from taxi drivers, the public should also support VMY2007.
“I hope that all Malaysians will play their role, especially since we will be celebrating our 50th Independence Day next year,” he said, adding that the ministry aims to make Malaysia a “top-of-the-mind” destination.
Apart from the stickers, Lim said that VMY calendar of 50 events would also be displayed in front of the passenger seat of the taxis.
