If you missed out on the English Economic Forum organised by my office last Thursday, you can catch up with by downloading the slides “The Budget and its Shadow“, which was presented by one of our three speakers, Teh Chi-Chang. He is the Executive Director of REFSA.
Also available its the presentation by Dr. Cheong Kee Cheok, Senior Research Fellow, University Malaya – ‘Malaysia in the Medium & Long-Term‘.
Better yet, I invite you to join me for a bilingual Economic Forum in Klang with Teh Chi-Chang, Tony Pua and Charles Santiago tomorrow night, 20 December 2011.
Meanwhile, below is an email which I received from REFSA’s mailing list today for your information 🙂

We may not speak Economy, but we don’t have to be in the dark about our Money.REFSA understands that for some, the Budget is tedious to read, and even harder to understand.
Thus, our executive director Teh Chi-Chang aims to illuminate the economic intricacies of the Budget 2012 announced by the Prime Minister and the Shadow Budget by the opposition coalition.Engaging Malaysians from all walks of life in various seminars, Chi-Chang’s non-partisan talk “The Budget and its Shadow” pitted both Budgets against one another.
How would they fare up fiscally?
Which is financially practical, and which relies on empty promises?
Who would be the ultimate losers and winners?
Chi-Chang answered all these and more, with relevant facts, sparkling analysis, and down-to-earth language.
