‘Shattered Hopes’ Author Romen Bose-Should You Migrate? Malaysia’s Messy But Europe Is (Much?) Worse
Romen Bose is a journalist, author and political risk consultant who has worked for media agencies like and helped former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak.
His book, ‘Shattered Hopes’, analyses what went wrong with Najib Razak’s disastrous election campaign in 2018 while offering some quite surprising allegations.
Currently living in the UK, Bose offers some equally surprising conclusions about life in the UK as an Asian professional, while also discussing his work in the geopolitical arena, in terms of the rising global tensions emanating from the Ukraine-Russia war.

ASEAN must stick tightly together in not taking side with the US-CHINA conflict.
1. The notion of Najib's innocence in 1MDB scandal is a bit far fetched, what with the lifestyle he and his family were having, as well as many other things as you mentioned. Even if he was not aware of those things, that only screams incompetence, which cost our country billions.
2. With all due respect, let's not be oblivious of what is going on in the country right now. Reform takes time especially when it involves 7 decades worth of deep set beliefs and worldview. Talking about crashed hopes/dreams at this time, and after not even a term of adminstration, makes one sounds like an adult with the patience of a toddler.
It depends on which part of Europe you choose to stay. Have stayed in the UK (London) in the late 70's. The climate and lousy food made me change my mind going to Paris. Paris was better but stayed only 7 years. Got married to a French but of Italian origin and finally transferred to the southern part of Italy. Living in a small town with lots of friends enjoying good genuine Mediterranean food. Built my own house in the countryside. After 40 years here, I do miss Malaysia but not that much anymore lately with all the stupid and dumb issues of race and religion. After more than 60 years that shows you how a lovely and vibrant and rich country can go down the drains because of a few incompetent politicians and their cronies......
good for you then
As a retirement age of me, Malaysia offers the best varieties of food at affordable prices, in diverse cultures and races. Also, the medical benefits from the government hospitals. Also, the advanced medical treatments from private hospitals too, are much cheaper if compared with Singapore.....
I feel very comfortable here, home sweet home.
After having travelled to many cities and countries, every time the planes landed, I would go and look for the local delicacies😂
@@elainectlow been to or lived in 40 countries, malaysia still better, not expensive to live
A simpleton from the village still believing that Najib is innocent should have his brains checked.
An educated, learned and intellectual person still supporting Najib should have his BANK ACCOUNTS checked !!!
Confirmed Najib is a lousy administrator. Good riddance.
I am in Canada. I think the future advanced countries is in the Asian region. English base education is losing its lustre and priority. The world is changing at a fast pace.
Yes,,you should migrate ASAP..
Malaysia, spore, Indonesia Thailand vietnam many times better than Europe
I have been to North America, Europe, countries in S. E. Asia and China. Based on my past experience, I agree with you.
Hujan emas di UK, hujan batu di Malaysia, masih best lagi roti canai at 1am at kedai mamak with family and friends in Malaysia kannn..Love my country no matter what..Mamak ! Roti canai garing satu..
Sudah tentu sebab puak kau tak usah risau semua dibantu disuap. Bangsa dgn ugama lain ditindas.
You should put yourself in the person who can enjoy the roti canai at 1 rm like you but what about the benefits and privileges that he does not have with equal merits, equal rights, born in Malaysia but of different race. We are being treated like 2nd class citizens. Why stay and support all the inequalities when one has the chance to migrate......
@@chinchansay2012 u shld put urself in the person of our forefather who let immigrants who were willingly to be british slave to be granted citizenship.. ur right is a citizenship bcs non chinese and indians already locals there.. these two groups at tht time were not locals... read the book lol... bumiputera right and citizenship for non bumiputera is on par. like or not its the truth
The first section where he talks about tdm is almost spot on. The good, the bad and the ugly of this "former" statesman is laid bare the last 2 years when more and more people are coming out to speak loud and clear on what they know about him. I was in awe of him , growing up and was still in awe during 2018. That changed in 2020 when he did what he did and started giving excuses and accusations for the downfall of the new "opposition" government.
That finally woke me up in the most brutal way and till this day i am still wondering why were we so trusting to this person who is showing his true colours with every passing day. He IS THE QUINTESSENTIAL POLITICIAN!
There is no perfect country. The one that best fits your circumstances, your situation and stage of your life is the best. What are your priorities, education, lifestyle, public policies, etc?
Check up on the HK BNO migrants in the last two years . This will be a reality check . UK is a declining power etc etc
Malaysians are legacy of British colonial rule & based on merit system. The Malay political dominance have let to race based hegemony system. 98 % in gomen service from police, army to all sectors where government is the paymaster. This not going to change for a long time. No meritocracy anymore.
I have migrated to Canada, a land with rich resources & based on meritocracy, rule of law. My children got to the top university & are doing well.
I do have nostalgia over some Malaysian food sometimes but it is not my most important factor. Freedom from forced Islamic encroachment to my personal live by the gomen on to non Muslims caused great concern & depriving non Malay opportunities in education & commercial activities is another. Education is also failing due to political interference.
I have happily migrated to Canada, it has challenges but is small compared to those in Malaysia.
Remember, a good horse does not eat the grass it pass through before.
Malaysia is ofcourse the legacy of british colonial rule and it starts when the locals back then refused to have immigrants on par with the locals but british refused to care and many immigrants refused to go back to their former countries due to several reasons like famine, no money. Malaysia, especially in peninsular was and is always islamic dominant. for what reason they shld lower their right? its wild for immigrants to demand a country to suit with their culture and belief... its them shld suit with the locals. however, locals which is a islamic majority at that time still let people of non muslim to practise whatever they want..
its sad and look like systemic discrimination, however it starts from coloniser and those immigrants who refuse to suit with the locals rule..
@@B1398-p8i I get you brother
@@Kuihkoswiwell said. Very true indeed
Yes you condition your kids as role model, same way its hard to undo 70 years of conditioning of hegemony, education needs to be revamped
This interview is so strange
Romen is insisting to remain a Malaysian
Sorry brother, when in Rome, do as the Romans do
Gotta accept the good and the bad
Meritocracy and not Nepotism
No part of the world is not messy. If there is no religious persecution, then there is racial discrimination or both.
I’m prefer malaysia!!👍
Well, this journalist can help Najib to claim that he is not well informed about all the shits things and Najib is pure innocent, he just confirmed obviously Najib is sleeping on his job. Besides this journalist is Najib 3rd voice, so what happened ? You decide to join his club too?
Would you considerate migrating to Sarawak?
Policies on paper may not translate into action.
Two persons I can think of is Mr. Botak and KJ....
You just talk & talk but at the end you have not address the key issues of this podcast ie why did Mahatir resign as PM? What actually happen behind the scene that triggered the Sheraton Move by Muhyiddin?
true
His comparison between UK and Malaysia is almost childish. If you want to lepak so badly WTF are you doing in the UK? Also, stop spreading disinformation about the riot in London, there is no English defence League, those are your average English working class people and btw, the EDL has been disbanded over 10 years ago.
