Let's face it, Malaysia oil reserve is fast depleting. Government cant forever sponsor wasteful behavior. Actually, i cant believe how fast malaysians forget, barely a year ago Petronas issue statement that Malaysia will be net importer of oil by 2012. By 2020 we may be out of reserve completely. But then again, malaysians thens to forget...
