Delayed Remedy...

Our beloved Pak lah, The Prime Minister of Malaysia announced yesterday (10.7.2008) that he is resigning in June 2010. I wonder what will happen from today onwards. One of the reason is that he wanted to continue with his reform..without indirectly admitting that he didn't want to because he is unable to do what he is supposed to do? Even if he wanted to continue with his reform agenda..I just wonder if he still got the 'tooth' or colours to proceed as everybody knows by mid 2010 and beyond, you are not the person incharge ? And by announcing that he wanted to resign on that date, the next question that will arise is.. whether he is accepting the fact that it is his weakness that makes things are not happening as it should be. Or towards a certain extent shouldn't be seen as chaotic as it should be..Otherwise why should resign because you are still needed and healthy. Given the recent scenario...I just wonder whether it is good to have such an arrangement because I still believe that it is more dangerous to annouce the date rather than not announcing it because your opponents i.e. other than UMNO will have ample time to plan and do wonders. Abrupt announcement is still the best..provided you make all the necessary arrangement quietly without even telling your wife or advisors...at the end of the day it is the integrity of a leadership that should prevail..furthermore..if it can be done for the next 2 years..why not just do it for the next two months...or could it be another delayed remedy?

Medical Saving Plan

It has been a long time since we heard about the National Healthcare Financing scheme due to be launch by the Malaysian Government. I am still of the opinion that Medical Saving Plan is the best alternative for Malaysia. It provides long term security for the public. The system controls cost by facilitating contributors using preventive aspect of medicine to say healthy and therefore an increase in his savings. Choosing Medical Saving Plan is also a tool to prevent doctors from practicing preventive medicine in order to avoid medico legal issues. Check these out. 'Medical Savings Accounts : The Singapore Experience'; www.ncpa.org/studies/s203/s203.html. 'Medical Savings Accounts in South Africa'; www.ncpa.org/studies/s234/s234.html

Being a country whereby the majority of its citizens are muslims, it is good to incorporate elements of zakat in the system. God willing, the system should be the chosen plan in dealing with healthcare financing for the country.
