the future


This is the main building of Angkasapuri, the home of RTM (Radio Television Malaysia.) As you can see, the words 'Wawasan 2020' sit at the top. These words were coined by our previous Prime Minister Tun Dato' Dr.Mahathir Mohammed in the 80s. It means Vision 2020. He envisioned Malaysia to be a fully-developed country by the year 2020 and his government laid the groundwork. It is now 2006 and the present government realised that 14 years is not enough time to reach that goal. The slow-motion button has been activated. Will we achieve the goal?
