Honestly, it's nearly impossible for anyone to control the macroeconomy as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them!

During the tenure of BN, the group of opponents could easily criticize any shortcomings, even for a simple attire. So, now, let's see how the new government can sway the macroeconomy and assist the Penangites for a better lifestyle. Importantly, please don't promote "double standards".
