What would I do if I were the Prime Minister for the day? What are my priorities if I were running the country?

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. 

- John C. Maxwell

With the power of the presidency, the world can be changed. A president must lead by example and motivate his people. Presidential power would overwhelm most, but not me. I know exactly what I would change to make the world a better place.

To begin with, I would work to make our country safer. I would do this by enforcing and increasing the severity of laws against offenses such as murder and drunk driving to increase the safety of our children. I would hire more police officers and security personnel. By increasing security in the country, we can maintain a safer setting for us all.

In addition, I would make our country a more environmentally friendly one. I would accomplish this by encouraging the use of alternative fuel sources such as wind, solar, geothermal and water to save our planet from pollution. I would establish tax credits to develop environmentally friendly energy sources and train workers for “green” jobs.

Moreover, I would also like to raise the minimum wage around the country and make sure Malaysian jobs stay with the Malaysian people. If our country is safer, greener and people have jobs earning a fair wage, our potential is limitless. As Malaysians, we can turn the tide and once again earn the respect and admiration of the world. As president, it would be my job to make this happen. These proposals would have a huge impact on our country and I believe would greatly increase our country’s economic condition.

Besides that, I would wage a war on poverty. I believe in a powerful country such as ours, it is devastating to know that while you are sleeping in your warm bed every night, kids and families all around us are going to sleep cold and hungry. I believe that if everyone would lend a hand, it would better our society and we could make poverty a thing of the past.

We should keep our manufacturing companies here in Malaysia which would keep our people working and allow them to provide for their families. Under my presidency, big corporations would not be allowed to move outside Malaysia merely to make a bigger profit. Big corporations should not focus on their immense income, but on the outcome of the families, they are hurting. I truly believe people living in poverty, if given the chance, would work hard and provide for their families. We need to devise a plan for a task force to oversee large corporations and to work collectively on national and state levels to focus on the working class. We are supposed to be the “land of opportunity.” Has that vision faded away? If I were the president of this great country, I would focus on the American families and grow this nation into the nation our forefathers intended.

Bold Change for the Malaysian People To Preserve, Protect and Defend
