We have been duped

We have been duped into believing that our economy is doing well.
We have been duped into believing that our GDP is at a healthy growth.
We have been duped into believing that our income per capital is sustainable..

What a crap....

It came to my attention that 20 years back, on average, we earned 3 times more than an average Korean did. And look what had happen now...
I've been told that the "Samsung" branding has reached its world wide phenomenon, meaning to say you can see their product being such a hit in the European markets and above all worldwide.
The fact is our economy is ailing and yet we have been told that we are indeed well ahead...my guess is ahead of who???

The logic isn't hard to be comprehand. In a ceteris paribus environment, by now we see our local brands like Air Asia (although relatively new), or Astro being internationally acclaimed, but unfortunately not. Where did we go wrong? And yet do you still believe we are doing well?
