How often can a light-weight boxer defeat a heavy-weight boxer?<br /><br />The United States once had tariff controls to protect its emergent industry against imports from Europe, especially Britain, which at the time were industrial powerhouses. So did Japan.<br /><br />On a broader level, the Arab Springs in Tunisia and Egypt were fueled by dissatisfaction over neo-liberal policies which had been implemented by the Mubarak and El Abidine governments, resulting in high unemployment.<br /><br />Prior to the much dramatised "Twitter revolution" among students, there were industrial actions which broke out in factories, etc much earlier but went unreported.<br /><br />However, I disagree with you that leftists and communists did not oppose colonialism. Had it not been for the Communist Party of Malaya's armed insurgency, it would not have been so easy for UMNO to have won independence peacefully.<br /><br />After all, while the British granted political independence to the Alliance government; they did so because they knew that the Alliance would protect British economic interests, while if the leftists and communists had won, they would have lost everything.<br /><br />As it turned out, the Alliance protected British interests for over 20 years after formal independence, though gradually forced the British to sell off their assets.<br /><br />However today, if the neo-liberal globalists have their way, Malaysia will end up being neo-colonised by the United States.<br /><br />We'll wake up one daye with branches of HSBC, Standard Chartered, Citibank and Bank of America in every neighbourhood.<br /> <br />I've seen this happen already in Canada, where HSBC set up in Vancouver and bough up the ailing Bank of British Columbia, thus acquiring a network of branches across the whole province.<br /><br />Likewise, HSBC acquired Midland Bank in Britain, which gave it a whole network of branches across Britain.<br /><br />Standard Chartered acquired Nakhorn Thon Bank in Thailand and got a network of branches across Thailand.<br /><br />Those are real examples of globalisation in action.<br /><br />However, the current Barisan Nasional government also plays ball with this. For example the proposed Free Trade Agreement with the US and Europe which will adversely affect Malaysian workers, small to medium industries and medical patients who will not have access to cheaper generic pharmaceuticals, which the west wants banned under the agreement.<br /><br />If you are sincere, you must oppose these moves as well, whether by Khairi, a BN or a Pakatan government.IT.Sheissnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-66104321986265396212012-10-07T00:29:22.652+08:002012-10-07T00:29:22.652+08:00I read elsewhere that neo-liberalism was originall...I read elsewhere that neo-liberalism was originally called liberalism but the former Liberal Party in the U.K. tended towards social democracy in that it believed that a certain degree of government intervention to help the lower income group was needed.<br /><br />The term neo-liberal is used in the US because liberal had become associated with government intervention.<br /><br />Neo-liberal ideology, with the concepts of unfettered capitalism, open borders, free markets, etc dominates the Internet which has become the domain of a privileged, middle-class elite who benefit economically from it, as well as right-wing anarchists who disdain any government regulation of their lives.<br /><br />Globalisation was popular, especially among Malaysians who felt that it would undermine policies such as the NEP and government involvement in business through GLCs, and that it would create a "level playing field" for all.<br /><br />What the failed to realise however, is that if the objectives of globalisation and open borders were fully realised, we would find all our major industries owned and dominated by foreign-owned corporations.<br /><br />While I agree there is a need for a more balanced distribution of opportunities in employment and business, neo-liberalisation is not the answer.<br /><br />Already, the presence of foreign-owned megastores, with their ability to bulk-buy cheap and sell cheap has resulted in the closure of many sundry shops, mostly operated by Chinese.<br /><br />Fully open the borders and many of our small to medium industries will be crushed.<br /><br />IT.Sheissnoreply@blogger.com
