So, is the recession finally has come to hit our country? Maybe some people may want to say positive things and still want to mellow down the impact, but for those people who has been directly affected and for those who has opted for vss or other type of retrenchment, life will not be the same again and they really need to adjust their lifestyle... Now, the news from the US and some European countries has been alarming. People are comitting suicide, and it is not only those who without jobs, billionaires also has been reported to commit suicide...
Maybe for the rich, they are still rich, but paper loses maybe amounting to billions. Just imagine, if we own 1 billion stock valued at RM5.00 per unit, that is RM5 billion worth of stock... but if the stock value suddenly loses its value and drop to RM0.30, then its value has reduced to RM300 million and that is a loss of RM4.7 billion... wow that is really a lot of money...
People are fast losing their jobs and sales are dropping at a very alarming rate, I was told by my friend that the company his work for has experience a drop of sales up to 40%, and some say their sales is just 5% compared to usual sales volume.
Hopefully, Malaysia can engineered an economic plan that could soften the impact of these economic meltdown. Perhaps, this is the best time to review and have some lifestyle changes in our life. Why the economic slowdown happen? That would be an interesting questions..... So far we have been trying to answer the same questions over the years, but it seems that when we thought that we have the answer, there is another twist of the turn taking place...

Hidup ini ibarat roda, ia pasti berputar semula. Yang penting kita kena tahu di bahagian jejari roda mana yang kita duduk. Jika kita berada di bahagian jejari yang paling besar, maka makin besar kesan putarannya. Begitulah sebaliknya jika kita berada di bahagian jejarian yang lebih kecil.
Duit sentiasa datang dan sentiasa pergi. Jika duit kita lebih banyak dibelanjakan ke jalan Allah, nescaya kita tidak akan tergugat dengan keadaan ekonomi yang mengarut sekarang ini. Jika duit kita lebih banyak dilaburkan ke jalan syaitan, memang patut pun kita sentiasa gusar, resah dan gelisah dengan keadaan poket kita hari ini.
