RM30bil for 9MP

Its been awhile since i last wrote here, sorry to my readers, i was a bit busy lately.

TheStar 27 June 2008: "RM30bil more - Pak Lah: Spending boost to rising cost of 9MP projects" My god Pak Lah you just cut on oil subsidy, now you spend on 9th Malaysian Plan. Who are in the Malaysian Plan, mostly contractors. And the rising cost of projects, the bulk of it is on building materials, e.g. steel and cement prices. And then who are these contractors? Supporters and sponsors?

Penang's RM1.6bil Monorail project was scrapped but the RM2bil double tracking rail project continues. Why and what is the criteria on the decision? Both are people-centric projects except that one is under government control and the other held by opposition. Can the government provide us with the feasibility studies done on both projects; the expected number of user, the traffic etc. I am sorry to say for Penang people you are not included in the "people-centric" category, even a better road link were being denied. Now only the Sabahans and Sarawakians are the first class "people-centric"; "ask what you want and you get it" (awywaygi); an additional of RM2bil for them.

The Senai-Desaru highways to proceed, how is the traffic? Linking the Senai airport to the Desaru Beach resort is "people-centric"? Well, Penangites, lu fikirlah sendiri...

Personal agenda, empty promises, taking advantages: so by being generous with government coffers means that he is delivering his promises? to who? sponsors & supporters? Why can't we work together, it is for the benefit of the people, the rakyat.

The govt should bear this in mind that "the rakyat vote for the opposition mainly due to fed up with all the bureaucracy, non-transparency, the arrogance & the ignorance of the govt to understand and to acknowledge the voice of the rakyat. He never hears us and I think never will... Of late he always has his own assumption on the rakyat, example, he claims to ease the civil servant burden the govt will introduce twice a month salary without consulting the people especially Cuepacs.

So, my friend lu fikirlah sendiri...
