vietname ahead of us pon sbb nak time tu russia still communist and vietnam pon communist..so nak tunjukkan comunist punye pencapaian laa.. btw, india pon dah anta astronaut dia ke angkasa in the 80's..afghanistan pon samer

herrhughie

betul..actually our gov need not to concern the title of astronaut that much...the main thing is how much we gain from this trip...how does it benefits our country..

anyone can edit info from wikipedia............. need a more reliable source laa.........

for me this programme is really important step for Malaysia to be into space technology, we are not supposed to blame this kind of programme, actually Malaysia has enough money to support this kind of project or programme but the problem is the way of our government spending the money.......

Itulah masalahnya sebenarnya, cara kerajaan menyalurkan duit negara dgn cara yg tak betul lah menyebabkan masih ada kemiskinan di negara kita ini.......pastu masalah rasuah lagi.....

bagi aku tak salah kita menggunakan sebahagian duit negara utk program angkasawan sebegini, aku pun before this tak sokong gak program2 kerajaan yg hanya utk dibangga2kan itu tapi bila dlm konteks program angkasawan ni, aku rasa bersetuju ia dilaksanakan........ cuma yg penting jgnlah hangat2 tahi ayam aje atau menguntungkan pihak2 tertentu aje.......

the point is negara kita sebenarnya cukup kaya dan mempunyai pendapatan yg banyak dan mampu utk membiayai program angkasawan ni........ kita nampak perkara ni membazir sbb cara kerajaan BN mengagih-agihkan kekayaan negara itu dgn cara tak betul dan sebab itulah terdapat kemiskinan lagi di negara kita.......

lagi satu aku pun faham gak kenapa terdapat segelintir rakyat Malaysia yg membantah program sebegini sbb tak mahu dikatakan menyokong kerajaan BN..... aku pun bukannya penyokong BN tapi bagi aku tak semestinya bila kita sokong program2 ke arah kebaikan yg dianjurkan kerajaan Malaysia masa kini, kita dicop sbg penyokong BN.......

estnee

itula yg di bangga2 kan sgt.....

tipah tertipu....

mmg important....... tapi tak kena pada tempatnya......... duit tu lebey bermanafaat kalu spend kat yg asa dulu........ kita dah ada roket sendiri? thunderclap seludup dari china & thailand tak kira tau...........

itulah masalahnya dgn kerajaan Malaysia yg diperintah BN......... mereka tak tahu nak mengagih-agihkan pendapatan negara dlm segala aspek.........

so, akan datang marilah kita beramai2 jgn undi BN, dan pilihlah pemimpin yg dapat memastikan tiada lagi salah guna duit negara utk kepentingan sendiri........ supaya segala pendapatan negara tidak akan hanya menguntungkan kroni2 tertentu ....... supaya takdelah lagi kita akan komplen mengenai pembaziran duit negara utk sesuatu program apabila tiada lagi rakyat Malaysia yg tertindas.......

Cipta roket? rilek brader...... don't jump the gun...... sikit2 dulu...... memanglah program Angkasawan ni hanya melahirkan seorg astronout atau space flight participant yg hanya berada di angkasa utk 10 hari aje ...... kita nampak macam takde benda yg bermanfaat dia boleh buat utk masa sesingkat tu .......this might be a small step for him but it's a giant leap for our nation......
jangan ingat cipta roket tu mudah, dan kita juga kena ingat bukan mudah nak minta pihak Rusia atau US atau pihak yg mencipta teknologi ni berkongsi rahsia pembuatan roket mereka dgn negara2 lain........ that's whylah kita kena buat step by step dan diharap macam aku cakap sebelum ni jgnlah program angkasawan ni menjadi hangat2 tahi ayam aje...... kita buat sikit2 dulu better than nothing.......

cam harapkan langit sjer... tak sedar ka program ini teda pelan utk mencapai sesuatu objektif buat jangka masa yg terdekat dan panjang?

Our space traveller was the one who gain. Millions spent for him to travel in space.
Our country get her name printed on paper whilst the space traveller gets to travel.

Maybe u r right. However, it can be like proton that end up spent lots more 2 ensure it sustain.i think we can explore this area, however we need not rushing spend big amount of money 2 send a man into the space

dCrook

tak salah aku programe angkasawan ni program free dari rusia sbb offset dari pembelian sukhoi jek.. jadi soal goverment spent millions on this program rasenyer tak berape tepat sbb that millions spent on sukhoi sebenarnya..
