From yesterday's post, regarding Hallelujah Nga's proposal to recognise Israel (which he subsequently apologised for and swiftly withdrew it, 'perhaps' following advice from HQs?), he said Malaysia should take it a step further by opening its embassy in Israel and reap economic benefits from the new ties.
"Israel is very small country but it has very advanced technology in various field, especially in agriculture. Thailand has also benefited tremendously from the expertise and existence of Israel.”
“So, we can also import the expertise for our agriculture to help to uplift the standard of living of the rural folks in this country.”
“So, we can also import the expertise for our agriculture to help to uplift the standard of living of the rural folks in this country.”
And he added that he would fail in his duty “as a senator with Christian faith if I do not alert the House about this”.
Wow!
Let's examine Israel's climate, which I believe to be of the Mediterranean variety for the reason it's next to the Mediterranean Sea, wakakaka.
According to Encyclopedia Britainnica, the Mediterranean climate ... is characterized by hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters and located between about 30° and 45° latitude north and south of the Equator and on the western sides of the continents.
That embraces California in the USA, lower portion of western South Africa, Chile in South America, Western Australia (Perth), New Zealand and of course the Mediterranean countries themselves including Spain, France and north-west Africa like Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.
The fruits grown there are citrus (oranges, lemons, etc), olives, grapes, avocados, kiwi fruits, dates, cherries, pears, etc. Cereal includes wheat, rye, rape (canola), etc.
The Israelis have been every diligent in converting semi-arid land (desert) into fertile grounds for the growing of such agricultural products.
I am sure Senator Nga has this in mind when he proposes we in tropical Malaysia learn from the Israelis how to grow citrus (oranges, lemons, etc), olives, grapes, avocados, kiwi fruits, dates, cherries, pears, wheat, rye, rape (canola), etc.

from Israel? |
Yes, faith alone can possibly shift our wonderful Malaysia from 5 deg North to 30 to 45 deg North or even South.
Alternatively, I am also sure Senator Nga is confident we can apply the Israeli techniques into bettering our tropical plantations of palm oil, rubber, cocoa, and our padi fields.
Such is the power of faith, if a wee bit blind. Hallelujah.
