Curious how we are always the one giving carrots to other nations, strong and weak alike. Buy stuff from country X to not offend them, then buy more stuff from country Y to not offend them and so on. I wouldn't mind seeing some carrots being thrown our way.Both can be carrots. They operate at two different levels. One is monetary, other is a bit more close to the people.
If an one sided FTA couldn't buy us any good will among the Malaysians I doubt a few pills will make any difference. Votes for the FATF can be attained with political arm twisting, the goodwill of the people is neither needed nor wanted. I am very much in favour of sending help to our immediate neighbours though, except Pakistan(they can eat grass for all I care) and China(why does the arsonist need a fire extinguisher ?)A factor can produce 200K to 300K pills a day. Just providing 1 day worth of yield may go a long way. BTW, my assumption and "condition" was the : "IF we can do it with high quality". Chinese ambition was way bigger, this is much smaller compared to what they were trying to attempt.
I am also in favour of sending help to other friendly countries in the ASEAN. Singapore, maybe Indonesia or Philippines.
