Why the audio is so low soft? Max volume still very soft, hard to hear...

[@westwoodly]

Dr Botak really has a brain under that bald head that DAP or Malaysia can tap and utilise. Very analytical, insightful and knowledgeable that every country would like to have. He doesn't play to the audience or even pander to his own interest. He lays the facts, the implications and consequences clearly for you to ponder. A podcast very much worth watching. He shouldn't think of ever leaving DAP because it's one party that allows him to reach greater height in the country's growth.

[@Muhammad-c6u]

@westwoodly KIAN MENG LEFT WITH NO CHOICE AND NO ALTERNATIVE DAP , THE REAL EMPEROR IS STILL KIT SIANG@ MALAM, THE BATON GOES TO JUNIOR EMPEROR LIM GONE@ COME ENG, SECRETARY GENERAL IS EMPEROR @ APEK LIM' PROXY. LIM KIT SIANG IF YOU CAN RECALL WHEN ABDULLAH, THEN NAJIB BECAME PM HE LABELLED THEM AS MAHATIR's PROXY..NIW HE IS DOING IT, DAUGHTER IN LAW BETTY ADUN IN MELAKA. THERESA KOK GONE ENG's AUNTY - SO IT's LIKE KIT SIANG'S DYNASTY - SO THAT IS WHY A PERSON AND A GENTLEMAN LIKE KIAN MENG DO NOT WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH..PEOPLE WILL HAVE THE NARRATIVE THAK OKM IS A HYPOCRITE

[@tatlerkongress]

I want to express my gratitude for your efforts. I'm very impressed by the professional, meaningful, and beneficial role you've played. Your work in Are We OK? has been inspiring and has brought real value. I look forward to the future and what we can accomplish togetherness. Thank you for letting us to supportive and positive influence Are We Ok!

[@maximillian7886]

Always loved OKM’s analysis! Really interesting and eye opening information.. Have been listening to the weekly episodes every Tuesday 👍🏻

[@EvelynnMei]

First impressions count! Good intellect, warm personality, and humbleness also appeal to the people of the constituency. Leaders such as YB OKM and Jamaliah Jamaluddin seem genuine and very approachable when they are on the ground. I remember running in Coway Run in 2018 at MAEPS (and many other runs) and meeting Dr OKM left me with lasting impressions. Best wishes to all honest leaders of Malaysia, regardless of race and faction.

[@hansrhavinder]

Point of clarification : Sikhs/Singhs are NOT Bengalis but Punjabi. Bengalis is a language spoken by the natives of Bangladesh.

[@imokman]

Yes, I am aware of the difference. I'll explain the context of using B at the start of the next episode.

[@samramasamy8804]

Bangladesh formerly known as East Pakistan until 1973 when it broke off from Pakistan after a brief war. East Pakistan is itself a break off from the Indian state of Bengali. Today Indian Bengal is known as West Bengal. Bengali’s originate from Bengal. Punjabi’s originate from the state of Punjab on the western part of India. Today Punjab is divided between India and Pakistan as Muslim Punjab and Sikh Punjab. In Malaysia we commonly refer to the Sikh community as Bengali. No idea how this came about. The community does not like it so we should refrain from calling them Bengali.

[@vimalrajkr]

​@@samramasamy8804 If you stretch history further back under the British Raj, The Bengal presidency included Penang, Singapore and Melaka. In its inception, you had Benggali sepoys settling Georgetown. There are Benggalis Malaysians (Malaysian Indian).We the Indo-Malayan community are made up many ethnolinguistic groups within the minority there is micro minorities. This makes us politically very malleable 😂

[@backhoe-colour-orange]

​@@samramasamy8804long2 time ago, we didn't get the chance to recognise each other races. Thats what we get from divide n conquer system

[@shriramvenu]

actually Bengali is the language of the Bengali people who are from the Bengal region, which covers India and Bangladesh. There is a state in india called West bengal, which is also Bengali. East Bengal is today known as Bangladesh

[@HazelnutLatte218]

I enjoy listening to their podcast in Spotify while driving. I hope you guys would give more highlight on global issues such as those happen in the US, China, BRICS, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East nations focusing on economic and political issues that will impact our country growths and people's cost of living and Keep up the good efforts, Mr Peter and Mr. Ong Kian Ming.

[@chanronnie5079]

Tq@Dr OKM for enlightening the viewers.

[@arulpsm5317]

In Perak DAP , i was told a few people were told to withdraw their nomination to allow for no contest. And In perak, there is ofcourse 2 teams

[@teacher_researcher]

Dap dont fight among yourselves. keep the power. focus on the greater goals

[@coybcoyb5096]

You may sooner realize DAP is no longer fighting for the common folks... It's all about political and financial mileage now..

[@7Siniestro7Pistolero7]

Its going to be an uphill task from them to win in the next elections.

[@azlanshah3125]

Salam good morning the speech is very good about corapsian so that' we the citizens are listening and watching this video alamdullila uncle azlan Shah

[@kcchiok]

Gobind does not have to feel bad or sad about the loss, because regardless of whoever going up next, just serve the public more! we do not need those drama e.g. Charlie

[@yokeloonw]

Our PMX is unwise. He has alienated the traditional supporters of PKR and PH. PH supporters were mainly pro reformation and clean government. Justice and an inclusive administration of the country. PH don't own their supporters. While they don't like PAS/PN, they don't vote them given no other alternative. Most of the disgruntled DAP/PH supporters will stay away in the next GE. Of course they love to punish PMX ensuring he will not come back to be PM. DAP also must learn a lesson that their leaders cannot take their supporters for a ride. Wait and watch how the voters will punish DAP.

[@johnong2655]

There are bebas candidates in most cities

[@7Siniestro7Pistolero7]

Nah not stayin away for sure. Its time we show these ppl what we can do if they take us for a ride.

[@Avarta8]

While I do not agree with such a short term thinking by some of my friends who share the same thoughts as you. I do feel PMX need to finish this term fixing many urgent country problems and can fasten reforms in his second term. But I am starting to feel many friends actually share the same sentiments as you. So PH, DAP, PKR and other components of the Madani govt - better start address the concerns of this group. Ignoring this group can be a disaster for PH in GE16..

[@madebyme7]

Thank you for sharing!

[@PeterGuan-c9x]

Very good information bro keep it up ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@LeeSiowTian]

Peter seems to be agreeing or repeating what's been said. Needs more in depth thoughts.

[@audreygiamlayhoon]

Smooth succession is critical in all countries. Even in Singapore, it is important not just to have an "heir", it is critical to have a "spare". The usual scenario is to ask, if the heir is hit by a car crossing the road, who steps up ?

[@Karazure]

what happen to the audio? The volume is awfully low. Any hope of a reupload???

[@ChengEakChew]

I think 2 terms max is a good strategy for a chairman ..... Believe Tony or G-Singh have done enough during that 2 terms tenure .for good or for bad!! ...... Just like 2 terms presidentship or PM-ship for many countries!!

[@CH-mu5ji]

Look at potholes in Damansara and you will understand

[@myownmyown3617]

Not the jobs of state adun? He is parliament right?

[@partthasaratthynelaitambi3505]

DAP as Opposition Front: "We are for the People & the nation." DAP with Government: "We are for Ourselves & Our Own Families."

[@suel34]

Sad but true 😢...gone r the days where Karpal n gang fought for the ppl. Nw only left toothless tigers

[@9m2sh]

You may want to review your audio quality.

[@srivegnesh2596]

Thanks for popcast

[@TheVostro1088]

DAP Sabah also had a change of its state chairman last month. The previous chairman didnt even made it to the top15, paving way for a generational change in DAP Sabah

[@matthassan4917]

Congratulations to all 15 newly-elected Selangor DAP State Leadership Members.💯 In coming GE & State Gov't Elections, DAP has great potential to be the M'sian political force to reckon with in critical Sabah & Sarawak DAP voters! Provided both East M'sian state DAP leaderships could boost new grassroot & youth memberships amongst the native Malay, Dusun-Kadazan & Dayak/Iban population!✔️

[@sonnykhoo7236]

Tony was an ‘uppity’ leader. And I’m not a dap member. And since he left how has he affected my life as a voter in Selangor? Actually no difference

[@chanronnie5079]

@Dr OKM, just curious & thinking aloud on the pt of YB Gobind not hvg the time to mingle wf various branches' grassroots, isn't his Pol Sec supposed to be tasked wf sharing most part of tat workload?

[@damianking2519]

I like Botak's shirt....where can I get one?😂

[@zakariyamusa2212]

Pasar Minggu...

[@MrTeddybeh]

can someone explain what is this T15, T5 B40 stands for?

[@Vivace1810]

the original version is T20 M40 B40, T20 means the top 20% income population, so that M40 is middle 40% and B40 is bottom 40%.

[@rush3508]

@areweokbymmtv It's worrying that Ng Sze Han hasn't really done anything about the legal stuff with the Shah Alam Community Forest (SACF). Makes you wonder if he really cares about the environment. Maybe OKM could give him a nudge about it? It'd be great to see him step up and protect this important forest. What's the point of growing the economy if Selangor's just gonna be underwater from all the floods?

[@CalvinLimSH-ld5le]

Trump 2.0: Impact on Malaysia’s Politics & Economy, well said and analysed by OKM and Peter Yong. Just pray hard and hope that we will not be severely affected by USA decisions for our country in the coming days. Let us be mentally prepared to weather the storms that are going to hit us in the future. This means more prudent or wise decision makings from the top business echelons how to alternatively grow our economy baskets better if this is true.

[@ahmadmustakhimabdmutalib59]

❤love the vidsm but please do another bahasa translate

[@vimalrajkr]

Dr Ong, spending time to reason Gobind leaving the building is fine by all means. The manner the conversation started with the “Benggali” CIMB comment at 11 and in the end at 38 coming out to dispel the racial narrative resonated more strongly with me. I don't think both was necessary.Both did not augur well with me. In my humble opinion you are just virtue signalling DAP new identity under the “UG” coalition government. DAP is now shifting itself maybe shedding its Malaysian Malaysia identity towards a more GERAKAN model or a alternative version of PKR. This is where I see parallel between the Democrats and DAP. I understand that Malaysian Malaysia has a negative connotation but it espouses the hope some the non Malay population. Like how MIC and MCA influenced waned being in government, DAP’s influence is waning amongst some of its fence supporters but I would bet my bottom dollar being in the government DAP have been improving its election machinery. While DAP might retain its strongholds (I reflect on the 2004 elections 12 core seats), swing seats where DAP doesn’t normally stand will see a decrease in non Malay voters for its allies. On Donald Trump I think you take on a stronger ringgit and weaker dollar is spot on. Contrary to popular belief Democrats have always been responsible for a higher dollar. Historically the Republicans operate the economy in a certain mould. IF Trump wants to increase productivity in the US, bring back production to America, pursue slapping tariff on Chinese goods he would be looking for lower dollar. If we can retain or increase our market share without any sanctions, Malaysia can chug along but as you have pointed out if US interest withdraws and we cant replace it Malaysia will be staring at a very very bleak future. Thank you so much for the content. Tuned in hoping for some commentary on Aerodyne as well as the whistleblower fiasco. Next week maybe?

[@jawsbushaxen4179]

I am one who prefer the Trumpian policies.. however, i feel like those can only be done in a position of power aka by a top richest developed nation. The only obstacle for the MAGA team is the bureaucracy. For us Malaysians, we have yet to go through the decades of fight for freedom, anti-racism, church/state separation and economic boom the west has overtaken. Those are the tools used to cultivate corruption in the nation. No matter how hard we try to fight corruption, we have to recognise the causation. The Democrats became irrelevant when they tried to fight a non existent boogeyman. But that boogeyman is real in our turf. So im torn when it comes to Malaysian politics.

[@Share-profit]

Thxs for the insight

[@saifulazmiismuel3009]

[@roticanai92]

Audio is too soft

[@JT_YJ]

Dr botak, can you run for election in JB?

[@oneworld2724]

Gobind known for his strong voice on public courses and seen lost in UG government.

[@vcmc6299]

To Dr OKM an ex-adun from Penang said a vote to Gobind = a vote to tokong, any comments on that please?

[@9m2sh]

Repeat of MCA Koon Swan/Ee Pan era when they resorted to ghost branches.

[@philipj94849]

Exactly. If they are not strict. The party is a political game.

[@asean8081]

Are you sure the world of currency is rational on exchange rate and there is no invisible hand manipulating the system ?

[@stanleygan7782]

I subscribed bro!

[@kinkobidoba9010]

Its a loss they dont elect Gobind to be even Vice President of DAP since he has made a tremendous effort by cutting down on Wifi prices package.

[@MrTeddybeh]

So far, coffee shop prices still remain the same.

[@KK-ij4mz]

Not in Kulai, we have not met our MP after election. I think DAP very poor at keep in touch with the voters. MP does not have to do personally, his/her representative can do this job. Don't just appear in the kampung when the election comes. People don't need you to spread money, but they like to have in touch with you. DAP is no more opposition party, you need to change your way of performing. Party Keadilan also hasbthe same problem as well.

[@Muhammad-c6u]

ONG KIAN MENG IS A TRUE MALAYSIAN AND A GENTLEMAN RECOGNUSES THE RIGHTS OF THE ORIGIN OF THE MALAYSIA IN THE CONTINENT OF MALAY ARCHIPELAGO AND THE INDIGENIOUS PEOPLE AS THE OWNERSHIP OF THE FEDERATION OF MALAYA THENCE MALAYSIA

[@harjindersingh3456]

his loss might also be due to his close association with the seniors in DAP

[@pakngah3715]

Ya lah. When DAP becomes part oof govt, suddenly its good to have a position in DAP. Power had its financial rewards lol.

[@olly-rv1yn]

Aloh, he want to make Penang coverage end up we still have lousy unstable communication network in Penang

[@DT-xk2ko]

MM you are out of your depth when it comes to political topics. Just relax and let OKM take the lead

[@utiriamsebastian8756]

Gobind singh. What he did for indians ?? The DAP Tiger was A one dealer. This fellow was a good ORATOR like pmx

[@gurunathan2809]

Why he lost... because he is not serve enough ground level...this is lesson all leader's..... don't always look up only.... need looks around... problem

[@BenL1242]

Dr. Ong is provides a more comprehensive understanding on DAP than DAP own podcast

years ago, tony pua, mp for damansara back then, failed to secure his spot in state commitee, and lost dap selangor chairmanship. now, gobind singh, mp for damansara, failed to secure his spot in state commitee, and lost dap selangor chairmanship. coincidence? seems like parliament seat of damansara is a curse for dap selangor chairman. moral of story, if u r dap selangor chairman, never ever contest for damansara seat😂😂

TRUMP IS A CHRISTIAN WHO HONOURS GOD.

[@piringka]

I am an 80 year old man from Penang. Gobind forgot that his father was a highly respected Dap leader. He devoted his life to serving the rakyat. He was not interested in high positions. Govind nominated his friend Revindran as the Mayor of Penang. His ultimate aim is to become the first Indian Chief Minister of Penang. Scott Road was changed to Ramanathan Road even though the person had never stayed in the area. He wanted to make Penang into an Indian state. Remember ❤what happened to Penang Gerakan years ago Sooner or later there would be atyphoon reaction from the people of Penang. Remember what happened to the Penang Gerakan

[@kwokmichael4895]

Are the rakyat ok since pakatan come in??The answer no.rising cost the main factor.many major problem not fix(flood) but the money channel to other states by Anwar.gobind quiet like nothing happen. Then the technology investment or work,many go to penang but not selangor and kl.gobind though selangor people are idiot in this.

[@nazibbugiso5853]

[@alvinchan5934]

Let's be realistic. He is a good lawyer. He used to take good cases and had good outcomes. He is a staunch and loyal party member. But he is not, I say again, not a good lawmaker. Let us be honest with ourselves. Are we happy with our current digital laws? nah. Are our banks and online services safe guarded and world-class? nah. The world is going AI. Everything is going AI. Malaysia wants to bank HUGE on data centres. Can we afford to continue having TM and our lack of 5G coverage in the best way?

yalah drama again lah... can't you survive without use politics to create drama for cari makan? Ideology without implementation is like e=mc^2 on paper, useless. Remember many years ago u used to want to contribute for ppl, but today did you live up to that standard? Some random youtuber can simply say anything, since they're not really in depth. But ex minister also same standard, it just proof how ridiculous our politics is.
