It would be interesting to compare port development project between our cost that that of our neighbor’s. It was reported that the Pasir Panjang Terminal was projected to cost rm$16 B and with it: they would have the following facilities: 26 berths, 210 acres of land, 24 quay cranes, 44 bridge-cranes, 15 rail-mounted cranes and 12 container gate-ways. With this cost, they projected to handle 18 million TEUs.
Whereas, we spent rm$4.7 B, just to half-develope 999.5 of open space!!![ this amount is 30% of the P. Panjang project] All the millions that they proposed to earn could not recover this investment. And thousands of job which can only mean importing more Indonesians and Bangladaishs whose contributions only benefitted those politicians who are given the rights to apply for work permits. So, folks in Klang and Port Klang, enjoy your near future living condition!!

AhPek, our friend RealWorld has disappeared for a while now. He is still awaiting instructions from UMNO on how to respond. If he asks for evidence, should we go around and take pictures of the Zakaria Palace, the Syed Azman house with helipad, the Rafidah mansion in Section 16, the house in Perth that Kamaluddin said he owns, the service apartment block in London’s Marble Arch that a former Daim crony owns ?

RM10 cut? should be more like RM10,000 cut. Like everything in Malaysia, if it is small, no one gives a damn… say something outrageous like giving him a RM 10k salary cut and maybe you will see some reaction which is stupid enough to draw more attention.

Nazri wasn’t found guilty of being issued thousands of new taxi permits. Rafidah wasn’t found guilty of issuing hundreds of thousands of APs to her favourite “boys”. MP Mat Said wasn’t found guilty of smuggling tropical hardwood. Councillor Zakaria wasn’t found guilty of abuse of power when he acquired government land at a fraction of the price; in fact, he is doing it again.

These are towering Malays. There are thousands of towering Malays and they can do no wrong. There are hundreds of Malays who own properties in Perth, London, Sydney, Singapore. How many of these acquired these properties on the back of their own sweat and tears ? Don’t ask. How many Bentleys, and S Class Mercedes or 7 series BMWs are owned by Malays ? Don’t ask.

There are hundreds of thousands of Indians and other minority races that live from hand to mouth. These are the people who have the unalienable right to ask.

CKC have no choice but to accept that seat because of his political interest and business rivals.
TLLS have been very careful to picked CKC after many rounds of disucssion and assurance given by both.
TLLS have also make sure that his son will be given (at least) half advantage in all MCA activities and business pool sharing.
Overall, TLLS are always better than DSV and because of Chinese are more creative and better business managers, TLLS outwritten DSV for the TUN title.
CKC, his choice are limited because of the size of the corruption.

Ã¢â‚¬Å“Ã¢â‚¬Â¦Indians realize that Samy Vellu cannot demand what is right for Indian, because you have thick file on him and his son. If he doesnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t follow what what you say, he and his son will go behind bars because of their criminal activities. Indians are not stupid, we know this situation. Mahathir was extremely happy when leaders of component parties made criminal acts, because from that point onwards, the leader of the component party was his pawn. Indians know this very wellÃ¢â‚¬Â¦Ã¢â‚¬Â

It is the very same reason why CKC can not give a Ã¢â‚¬Å“Yes or NoÃ¢â‚¬Â answer to any of the simplified questions.
CKC knows that AAB has a thick file on him and his predecessor Tun LLS.

Saudara LKS,

I and my wife have been life members of MCA since the 1970′s and have voted for BN in most of the past GEs.

Only in recent years thru the information I have been able to access via the internet, esp MalaysiaToday, Malaysiakini, LKS blog, etc, have I realised the spin that the govt had spun all these years since I don’t know when, concerning the hidden agendas of marginalising the non-Malays (note : not the bumiputras by definition) in the country’s progress and development. Yes, there were a lot of discriminations that were known – govt employment, govt contracts, scholarships, business opportunities, etc, etc, etc – that obviously were racially-oriented. We the non-Malays survived thru all this. Can the non-Malays tolerate more of this after 50 years?

The Bersih and Hindraf rallies have answered. The eyes of the world are focussed on Malaysia. The Badawi govt is concerned. The international communities are concerned. The India govt is concerned. I am also confident the China govt is keeping tabs. I am also confident that the Royalty in Malaysia are concerned, albeit remaining silent at present.

I feel the revolution has begun, it is the beginning, it will take a long while, but change in the governing coalition policy is inevitable. Let us all have confidence that this will happen.

My family now comprise 7 adults (incl in-laws) who are registered with the SPR. We will all vote in the coming GE for opposition parties, irrespective of whether they are DAP, Keadilan, PAS or others.

The oppositon parties however must show maturity in their ideals for a true Malaysian nation. Too often in the past, petty and ridiculous issues were raised for publicity sake. Stop all these. Be matured and raise real issues, and THE PEOPLE WILL SUPPORT.

I hope this message will open the eyes of Malaysians who feel there are injustices to certain sectors of the population. I do not blame people for continuing to vote for BN, as most of these people are un-informed of the true political situation in the country thru their lack of knowledge – relying only on the govt-controlled media.

No, Chan Kong Choy wasn’t the only one involved in this scandal, but as Transport Minister, the letters he signed would mean that he is the first to answer for it.

As I said in previous blogs, this is a wonderful example of an Ali-Baba partnership in Bolehland – Selangor UMNO in partnership with a Sarawakian businessman to cook up the land scheme, then bring in the UMNO Treasurer to add credibility, then get Ling Liong Sik to buy into the scheme, then ensure that Chan Kong Choy also bought into the scheme, and the rest is history.

This story has the makings of a classic Harvard Business School case study of a “win-win” situation in business. Everyone wins except the taxpayer who is royally screwed.

I was told numerous times, he only studied one book for his Chinese Studies, the ‘Dreams of the Red Chamber’; so you can be certain where his mind is. The logistics industry is too complex for him to follow, not to say to understand! That is why he didnot know his limits as a Minister notwithstanding his earlier job in the Finance Ministry. His predecessor spent over 2 decades without learning a thing; so how would he know anything except to sign Billions away!. ALL SAID and DONE, the ball is now with the SLEEPY HEAD. Please wake up!. You have promised HEAVEN that you would cure the country of cronism and corruption and if you do not carry out your promises, HE would certainly let you ‘ooze’ away. You have already shown signs of ‘oozing away’ every now and then.

Too bad the London authorities turned down the Brickonderry sports center.

That would have been a perfect getaway for our on-the-run ministers and their kind.

But is everyone so sure that only one minister was the culprit? Normally such schemes require concerted planning by the partners concerned.

YB KIT,
No matter how you simplify your questions this goon will remain silent. He even hasn’t got a Hobson’s choice for he has entangled himself in a catch 22 situation.So it’s better to remain silent as Godfather has mentioned that thieves are bound by a common code of silence!

Thieves are bound by a common code of silence. No matter how hard you press, there will be silence. Just make sure that the rakyat knows the extent to which the taxpayers’ money have been stolen by the band of thieves.

Mr Lim. You have simplified your questions but unfortunately this simplified version is still too difficult for him. You are still using too many “difficult” words for him to comprehend. Try using words with not more than two syllables.

If he cannot comprehend your simplified version, what the hell was he doing in London attending the IMO Conference? What was his contribution there anyway?

And if you keep pressurising him, he might have a recurrence of his mysterious ailment and have to go on medical leave again.

P/s Just love to see Mr Chan on video “performing” in Parliament.
