When the Dow tumbled more than 500 points yesterday, the worry and concern that the largest economy powerhouse may collapse reappears. Frankly, it isn't that difficult to imagine that the U.S. dollar may collapse due to the huge debts and deficits. Historically there are many examples on how hyperin [...]

As much as I would like to stop writing about PM Najib administration, the plot just got interesting and I think he may just hit the bull's eye as far as my prediction that his downfall may be faster than his predecessor, Abdullah Badawi, is concerned.
