OPS SIKAP VS OPS MAUT

  • Sudah berapa tahun Ops sikap dilaksanakan. Berapa banyak wang dihabiskan dan apakah kesannya.
  • Apakah sikap pemandu berubah.
  • Ops sikap sebenarnya gagal. Mungkin masa akan datang tak perlu lagi Ops sikap. Membazir saja.
  • Apa sebenarnya yang menyumbang kepada kemalangan jalanraya di Malaysia. Sebab orang ke, sebab jalan ke atau sebab kenderaan ke. Atau sebab UMNO ke.
  • Sudah lama Ops sikap dilaksanakan tapi ia gagal mengubah sikap pengguna.
  • Ops sikap sebenarnya tiada apa-apa. Ia hanyalah budget untuk lebihkan saman. Bila ada kemalangan maut, ambulan cepat datang untuk ambil mayat. Bomba bersiap sedia untuk potong kenderaan kalau ada mangsa yang tersepit.
  • Macam Musa Hasan kata, denda hukuman mati pun orang Malaysia tak takut untuk melakukan kesalahan jalan raya.
  • Bukan denda mati, mati pun mereka sanggup.
  • Ops sikap kena tukar kepada ops saman ke atau ops maut.
  • Sebab, setiap kali keluar berita ops sikap, yang dipamerkan adalah jumlah kemalangan maut dan jumlah saman.
  • Undang-undang sepatutnya mendidik. Di Malaysia undang-undang jalanraya tidak mendidik pengguna.
  • Itu menunjukkan undang-undang kita longgar. Rakyat kita percaya wang dapat mengatasi undang-undang.
  • Siapa ada wang, boleh langgar undang-undang, kalau tiada wang ikut undang-undang.
  • Kenderaan di Malaysia juga jenis kenderaan tin susu. Sebab ego nak jadi pengeluar kereta, faktor keselamatan no.10. Yang penting kereta boleh buat untung, keselamatan rakyat dipersetankan.
  • Rakyat dididik dengan "biar papo asal bergayo". Kalau tak ada duit beli kancil. Pengangkutan awam macam dulu juga, sentiasa tak cukup dan tak efektif, walaupun berbillion dah dihabiskan.
  • Sebab itu ops sikap tidak semestinya bermula dengan pengguna jalanraya. Ianya mesti bermula dengan penguasa. Pemimpin dan pasukan keselamatan.
  • Kalau masih diselaputi rasuah. Baik tak payah buat ops sikap.
  • Buat macam biasa je, tak payah ops - ops.
  • Kalau nak buat juga, buat ops maut.
  • Letak Van Jenazah tepi jalan.
  • Sikap tak boleh berubah di musim perayaan. Sikap dididik di sekolah.
  • Sebab itu selagi negara bergelumang dengan rasuah buat apa pun tak jadi.
  • Manusia sudah tiada maruah kerana boleh dibeli dengan wang.
  • Kalau banyak kena saman. Rasuah boleh "delete"
  • Kalau banyak kena saman. Ada "cable" boleh kurang.
  • Kalau banyak kena saman. Apa susah "Pak" aku polis.
  • Ayat yang selalu kita dengar, betul ke...
  • Rasuah akan menyebabkan orang baik jadi jahat. Orang jahat bertambah jahat.
  • Kalau kita tidak menentang rasuah, kita akan jadi perasuah.
  • Selamatkan diri kita. Tumbangkan BN.

INFO :Ten Big Companies That Are Veering Toward Bankruptcy

From The Business Insider, Sept. 18, 2009:


Despite a few green shoots in the economy and a rocketing stock market, many large companies are still struggling to avoid bankruptcy.
A new report by Audit Integrity identifies some high-profile names "that have the highest probability of declaring bankruptcy among publicly traded firms."
Which companies appear the worst off? We took the list and removed any company with a market cap under $3 billion. We then ranked the remaining names by a simple measure of the market's perceived bankruptcy risk - Market Cap (MC) divided by Enterprise Value (EV). The less MC vs. EV, the less residual shareholders' value (above what debt holders can claim) the market is pricing-in for the company. Thus a lower MC/EV means the market thinks the company is more likely to go bankrupt.


1. Hertz
When you have tons of debt financing your fleet of cars, falling rental demand really hurts.
While the company raised new capital in May for some breathing room, Fitch and Moody’s actually cut their ratings for the company in July.
Ignoring the downgrade, shares kept rallying and are now at over five times the March $2 low. Best of luck.
Market Cap (MC)/Enterprise Value (EV) = 32%


2. Textron
What a tough time to be selling business jets.
Textron wrote down $2.3 billion its backlog this year after it canceled a new jet design, and demand for its other aircraft-related offerings has plummeted.
Shareholders may be heartened by the company’s ability to push back some debt maturities lately, but deteriorating credit quality at the company’s leasing arm makes the outlook uncertain at best.
MC/EV=39%


3. Sprint Nextel
Sprint Nextel is bleeding customers, and could lose as many as 4.4 million net post-paid subscribers this year.
This is a huge problem when you have large amounts of maturing debt over the next few years.
A recent Deutsche Telekom acquisition rumor offered some hope, but that appears to have faded. Facing a difficult road ahead on its own, the company better keep its lawyers on speed-dial.
MC/EV=41%


4. Macy's
Does anyone even shop at department stores anymore?
Same store sales will likely keep falling at Macy’s right through 2009. With $2.4 billion of maturing debt over the next five years, the company is trying to cut costs, and has already reduced its dividend.
Hopefully the US consumer will bounce back soon, and actually want to shop at Macy's.
MC/EV=47%


5. Mylan
In a classic case of management empire building, Mylan overpaid big time when it bought Merck’s generic business back in 2007 and is now stuck with $5 billion of long-term debt as a result.
From 2007 – 2008, the company lost over $1.3 billion very much due to goodwill write-downs.
While the company could earn $300 million this year, they’ll have to earn far more than that in the future to make their debt manageable.
MC/EV=51%


6. Goodyear
Demand for Goodyear tires has sunk, and the company is saddled with massive debt and pension obligations.
It doesn’t help that The United Steelworkers union prevents the company from proper cost control by forcing factories to stay open.
Shareholders have to wonder how much value will be left of the company after bondholders and the union members have their way.
MC/EV=53%


7. CBS
Weak advertising and falling license fees have sent CBS's earnings off a cliff in 2009.
If they remain depressed for too long, the company could have trouble refinancing $3.2 billion of debt coming due over the next five years.
It will really come down to whether or not CBS’s earnings collapse is merely cyclical, or the result of structural trend whereby traditional TV is dying.
As a business blog, we can't help but feel partly guilty here.
MC/EV=55%


8. Advanced Micro Devices
When will AMD actually make money again? The question is becoming more important by the day since it carries over $5 billion in long-term debt.
After losing almost $3 billion from 2007 – 2008, analysts expect the company to lose more money in 2009 and 2010.
While the shares rallied from their February $2 low, they still appear stuck in a long-term down trend from $40 highs way back in 2006.
MC/EV=55%


9. Las Vegas Sands
Las Vegas Sands over-expanded and over-levered in the last few years and now has over $10 billion in debt to deal with.
Despite jumping 13 times from their March low, Las Vegas Sands shares still face an uphill battle.
Conditions in Las Vegas are horrible, Asian expansion isn’t enough, and if this lasts too long then LVS will end up in bankruptcy court looking like it bit off more than it can chew.
MC/EV=60%


10. Interpublic Group
As one of the largest advertising and marketing companies in the world, IPG was slammed by the global recession.
As the company’s CEO said during recent second quarter results, the downturn “is proving steeper and more lasting than expected”.
Revenues have fallen double digits and the company’s exposure to General Motors as its largest client hasn’t helped.
MC/EV=80%

BAGAN PINANG - ISA PALING BAIK

  • PAS tak ada masalah letak calon di Bagan Pinang.
  • Brig.Jen. bersara pun ada yang sokong PAS di Negeri Sembilan.
  • PAS punya banyak pilihan. PJ Layak, YDP Layak, aktivis parti pun layak.
  • UMNO yang tak ada pilihan.
  • UMNO bahagian Telok Kemang hanya calonkan satu nama, Tan Sri Isa Samad.
  • Bagi saya beliau adalah calon terbaik UMNO.
  • Dalam UMNO susah cari orang yang berjasa kepada rakyat.
  • TS Isa Samad mungkin dilihat orang yang paling berjasa di Negeri Sembilan.
  • Mohamad Hassan yang baru dua penggal jadi MB pun tak nampak berjasa dan berpengaruh lagi.
  • Teluk Kemang adalah kawasan autonomi TS Isa Samad. Kalau UMNO pilih selain Isa Samad, maka UMNO macam kuburkan UMNO Teluk Kemang.
  • Tan Sri Isa biasa guna bahasa mudah, bahasa orang kampung. Mungkin kerana itu beliau dekat dengan rakyat.
  • Muhyiddin yang paling pening. Beliau minta 3 nama tapi UMNO Teluk Kemang hantar satu nama sahaja.
  • Mohamad Hasan tak mau campur. Beliau janji, apa yang dicadangkan bahagian itu yang diangkat ke Pusat.
  • Najib tak pening, sebab beliau tahu formula jinakkan TS Isa. Ada satu jawatan yang dari dulu dipohon TS Isa yang Najib tidak tunaikan.
  • Dalam UMNO kebanyakan calon buruk, TS Isa yang paling baik dikalangan yang buruk.
  • Hanya Veteran UMNO yang mungkin boleh kalahkan PAS. Yang muda-muda semua "kong ka li kong".
  • Bagan Pinang adalah "Tawar Menawar" antara Isa dan Najib.
  • TS Isa pasti akan tersenyum, walaupun tidak dapat menjadi calon, sekiranya Najib tunaikan permintaan beliau.
  • Inilah mainan politik UMNO. Bukan rakyat yang difikirkan tapi kuasa dan pengaruh.
  • Cuma yang menarik, apa akan jadi kalau TS Isa tak dapat jadi calon dan tawar menawar beliau tak ditunaikan Najib.
  • Mungkinkah TS Isa mengamuk.
  • Peluang PAS, memang sukar tapi tiada yang mustahil. Bila tiba masanya, undi pos ke atau undi tak pos ke, kalau rakyat dah benci UMNO, tunggulah ajalnya.

TAKZIAH BUAT SDR.SIVA

  • PAS Melaka mengucapkan Takziah kepada Sdr Siva. (Ketua Pemuda Kelab Penyokong PAS Perak) diatas kematian ibu beliau semalam.
  • Beliau orang Masjid Tanah Melaka.
  • Sempat saya berbicara dengan Sdr Siva melalui telefon semalam. Selepas rombongan Ust Julasapiyah mewakili Lujnah Perpaduan Nasional Negeri menziarahi keluarga beliau. Sumbangan yang kami berikan adalah kecil berbanding dengan nilai persahabatan dan kemanusiaan yang kita bina.
  • Walaupun baru kematian ibu, semangat dan ikrar Sdr Siva untuk menggerakkan pemuda India di Masjid Tanah untuk menyertai Kelab Penyokong PAS amat kami hargai.
  • Semoga Sdr Siva dan keluarga diberikan ketenangan dan kelapangan serta mendapat hidayah dari Allah S.W.T.
  • Kematian adalah peringatan kepada yang hidup.
