It was very hot today!!! I think it could be warmest in 2007 so far .. about >33C (I guessed).

Here we go, today's article :)

Scandals
Within month of assuming office, Pak Lah's government was rocked by a series of scandals. These include failure of numerous infrastructure projects that include hospitals, highways and schools etc, squandering of public funds on luxury, damages to environment and corrupt alienation of state lands. All these are traced to corruption, abuse of power and gross negligence as root causes (BUT who?)

For example:

MATRADE Building (RM400 million): not completed after 10 years. -> (I suggest it was contractor's problem!!! So what?)

MRR2 Kepong Flying (RM240 million): extensive cracks at the structures. -> (I suggest it was because Malaysia's tanker / truck too heavy to make it crack, no people to blame!!!)

Sultan Ismail Hospital, Pandan, JB (RM560 million): extensive fungus infection (completion had already been delayed for several years). -> Walau, I suggest we need another 100 years to build a hospital. 10 years too short, this can become a quality issue!!!)
