Show me the money!
Jeff Ooi had just blogged about the nation's missing money. You would wonder, some of you, how much did it take to build Sri Perdana, the official residence of the Prime Minister of Malaysia. But lets change the focus on how much it takes to maintain it. The cost of maintaining can buy a whole street of terrace houses in USJ, Subang Jaya or any average housing estate for the matter. It cost a whopping RM20 million. For the breakdown of the expenses check ScreenShots.
It makes you wonder why Kenny Sia is so shocked to see 90% of voters think the nations has not been maturing enough. Why is there peferential treatment of Malaysians just because the state was run by an Islamic Politcal Party? If the royalty paid by Petronas belongs to the state government, the federal government should have respected that. Malaysia is one big messed up place despite the development and growth. I wonder how we achieved that. To top that up we have immature politicians in the form of Pemuda-pemuda (youth wing). Don't they know they are only destroying the already weakening bond of national unity? Our fore fathers fought for indepedence through unity, which I think is much stronger then. Why destroy it when we can make it a competitive advantage? Pak Lah & Co., start working like matured adults and take responsibility.

"Malaysia is one big messed up place despite the development and growth. I wonder how we achieved that."
"Pak Lah & Co., start working like matured adults and take responsibility."
My sentiments precisely!
We need to buck up or we'll fall behind everyone including up-and-coming nations and not to mention we'll never catch up with our admittedly better-managed island neighbour.. sure makes you wish you had more influence in the management of our nation eh.
stop it with the neighbour rivalry. it is so yesterday. i think the government should do more internal benchmarking. with NST reporting the improvement in only one area which is civil serivce while going on the reverse gear in the other areas such as corruption and transparency. pak lah's vision and motivation to fight such malpractices have since lost its direction it seems.
you guys sound so serious. goodness. let me infuse a bit of humour here.
