Is the Malaysian malaise contagious?

If this is true, now you should know why the petrol can not be subsidised lor.

You all have heard this before from this crabby uncle -- why are
Malaysian's living overseas able to achieve so much more than those at home, be
they writers or dancers or musicians or anything, why do we spend 3.5 million a
month on a Philharmonic Orchestra comprising of (Mainly) foreigner mucisians for
(mainly) foreigner audience, when that 42 million a year could be used to
promote music education in a 1000 schools or build 100 mini KLPacs. (Can you
imagine where the country would be now, in the ten years we have been wasting
our time with The Malaysian Phil? God knows, I am not xenophobic.)
