Malaysia at a glance II

A quick view of Malaysian scene:

1) The roof of the 50,000-capacity Gong Badak stadium in Terengganu collapsed at about 7.30am today.In the incident, 60 percent of the roof at the stadium collapsed, including that above the royal box at the grand stand. By the way it cost MYR 300 million! Even my rebah ayam ( chiken shed)is stronger only MY 245. No comments lah, let the people see for thmselves.

2)MIC will be monitoring the intake of local public universities for this year to ensure a fair and equitable selection process, said party secretary-general Dr S Subramaniam today.He said although the selection process was based on merit, there was a need to monitor it so that no deserving student would feel he or she has been left out.Same story different face feom Semi Value to Super money!

3)Transport Minister Ong Tee Keat today said the government will not bow to opposition's calls for a closure of the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ), despite the damning disclosure last week following the release of an audit report by PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC). The original estimated cost for the land purchase and development works in 2001 was RM1.957 billion ... (the) project outlay has escalated to RM3.522 billion as at Dec 31, 2008."Interest cost of the deferred payments to KDSB (Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd) amounted to RM1.425 billion resulting in a total project outlay of RM4.947 billion," the report stated. What the....there goes our paper money during Cheng Beng ( hungry ghost)

4) Nizar calims that"We have yet to receive the written grounds of judgment (from the Court of Appeals). Still, we may file the appeal on Monday (June 8) at Federal Court after discussion on the matter with my lawyers," Court of Appeals judge Md Raus Sharif had earlier said the written judgment would be released on May 29.However, a fax from the Court of Appeals office dated June 1 stated that the judges are still in the process of preparing the written judgment, said Nizar's lawyer Leong Cheok Keng. Hello...who is writting the judgment, dah outsource kot!

5)MIC president S Samy Vellu today called for the writer of an offensive article published in the Umno-owned Utusan Malaysia to be charged with sedition.
"I deplore the racial slur made by the writer of the local Malay daily where he had indirectly referred to the Chinese and Indians of Malaysia as 'kaum pendatang' (immigrants). "It is most disgusting, despicable and shocking. I suspect the writer is not part of the newspaper, but has been using it (the newspaper) to promote his own agenda," he said in a statement. Samy...samy calling samy...are you there? After 28 years baru nak buka mulut, oops sorry first time reading Utusan Malaysia all the while Tamil Nesan. My apologies Samy!

Enough of the good news now for the bad news, I am getting sick and tired of writting political news nak try " Mountain Biking" pula....boringlah nothing exciting happening all very, very quiet!
