My fellow Malaysians, I'm doing this on behalf of the Malaysian Government.
I'm sick and tired of you guys complaining about the increase in oil price. Here's what I want to ask you:
You don't read the bloody newspaper one issit?
Cannot see in the news oil prices increase like hell meh?
Why you all so stupid!!!
Oil prices, as of now, is $147 per barrel!!
You know that is how many percent increase from last year or not?!! Last year, it was $68 per barrel.
Increase 53%, you know or not?!!!
So you know how much subsidy the gorv is giving you for the oil you use to send your children to school, go mamak stall for supper, go convenience store buy roti....etc, etc.
Very easy calculation, stupid!
So don't complain anymore, can or not?! (Damn, you people force me to use so many exclamation mark in one post!)
STUPID!
You see, the gorv ministers always try to explain to us (Malaysians) the mechanics of crude oil pricing and gorv subsidy calculations. Only that we are too stupid to understand it, cause our maths sucks because of our Malaysian education system. Understand onot?
Very simple only. Crude oil price increase, gorv spend more money to buy oil, therefore increases subsidy for rakyat. Then then then.. gorv cannot tahan anymore cause oil prices gone too high, so not enough money to subsidize us, so have to increase oil prices loh, stupid!
But, but, but then hor......
I saw this listing in Fortune magazine's issue of Fortune's Global 500, which list the 500 top companies in the world in terms of revenue and profits.
Which makes me remember, I studied in school last time that Malaysia is ALSO an oil producing country. I don't know since when I forgot about this fact. It probably got lost in the huge amount of crap, lies and propagandas our beloved gorv tries to shove into our........*....... day in and day out.
Do yourself a favor, stupid, and read this article.
Petronas is ranked 95 of the top 500 companies in the world in terms of revenue.
Petronas is ranked 8 of the top 500 companies in the world in terms of profit.
( ahead of companies like War-Mart [largest company in the world], Toyota, ING Group, General Electric, Citigroup, Berkshire Hathaway, Honda, Hewlett-Packard, ArcelorMittal, Bank of America Corp. , Pfizer, Sony, Nokia....... and the rest of the 400+ top companies in the world).
So, remember this: Petronas makes more money per year than the company of the plasma TV you're watching, the car you're driving, the phone you're using, the computer you're looking at now, the underwear you're wearing...etc. etc.
They made more than US$18 billions last year, and definitely more this year.
Profits grew 40% in 2007 because oil prices went up 11.2% from the previous year.
So, if oil prices go up 53% more, then profits can grow how much leh?
If Petronas is making so much more money, then where has all the money gone?
Stupid, stupid, stupid. I tell myself. The calculations must be too complicated for a normal Malaysian to understand. Only Malaysian gorv politicians know how to calculate such complicated maths. So forget about calculating where the Petronas money has gone, because you, like me, a normal Malaysian citizen, would not be able to understand.
The options for me is simple. It's either I remain stupid or I do something about it.
Ah....I instantly felt a lot more cleverer once I made a decision in my head of a certain box to cross in the future, and doing something to let the people around me know that they suck at maths.
I am writing this post because of how stupid I felt after reading the Fortune issue today. I'm sure you'll feel the same way after reading it too.
Thanks for listening, STUPID!
