Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic September 12, 2007 Share September 12, 2007 I am not amazed when I read in today ST that MY Gov department paid dubious prices for items which cost much less on the street. Could not imagine how their AG department could approved RM117 million on 2 helicopters for their police force which does not suit their operational requirement. Both helicopters landed in the fire department instead with additional cost thrown in for training pilots to fly them. Paid RM70 for a set of screwdrivers which cost mere RM10/- at hardware shop. [sly] So the past stories & theories of under table moneies being passing around from one to another in order to secure projects seem profound after all. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin 4th Gear September 12, 2007 Share September 12, 2007 The screwdrivers might have cost RM10 too.. but the extra RM60 could be for the packaging, delivery, logo engraving, etc so it cost RM70 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahbengdriver 6th Gear September 12, 2007 Share September 12, 2007 I am not surprised at all bcos this happens at every corner of the MY govt sectors. One of my relatives, a datuk, once told me that chinese contractors who supplied building materials to build certain buildings for their govt earned large margins. Now to get those contract, you gotta wine/dine(you know what I mean?) . Maybe thats why now they say a minimum no. of contracts must go to Bumi firms, which is actually worse.

Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic September 12, 2007 Author Share September 12, 2007 Ha..ha.. not born yesterday, Knew it all these time from my relatives in MY but do not want to mention until it is made known in the press by themselves. There are a lots of other stories from the very top to the lowest ranking. I believe more to come but definitely censored from now on. Don't know how this one exposed to press. Which gov wants to wash their dirty linen in public. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
