The Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak today announced his lineup for the cabinet. All in, there were some major surprises. In the lineup, we see Dr Koh Tsu Koon coming into the Prime Minister's Dept; Mukhriz in MITI and a couple of others - KJ was actually not on the list.
I think that Najib has a tall order on his sleeves since taking over from Abdullah Badawi - and the first thing he really has to address is the current roller coaster economy. What the industry and the entire economy needs right now is a strong Government with strong and transparent policies - this way, we can attract the foreign funds once again, pumping in more cash into the economy.
The stimulus plans so far has been so far so good; but I believe the country needs more. Lets watch and see how the whole picture unfolds.
