Yesterday's 1Joke : 22 Oct 2009

Heard about this wonderful piece of 1Joke 2 days ago over Radio 988 in the morning. It was about some comments on the excessive expenses and unsangkarable quotation from those suppliers in government's approved vendors list (G-AVL). All these scams were revealed in the Auditor-General's report for year 2008.

The reason not many people get to be in G-AVL is because they did not do the right thing during bid submission. It is no secret that "Maximize the opportunity, Minimize the cost" formula doesn't apply in winning the bid. You can judge from the list below that I extracted from our local news sources, Malaysian Insider and Malaysiakini.



The Rascals:
> Human Resources Ministry
> Education Ministry
> Finance Ministry
> Health Ministry
> Defence Ministry

The Boleh Buys & Works:
> Miri training institute (ILP) paid nearly 3,000 per cent more for a RM990 pole platform

> Kepala Batas ILP paying 800 per cent above market price for a RM 1,500 cabinet

> Approved payment of more than RM290,000 for two development projects that do not exist

> Claimed RM172,258, to cover the cost of installing floor tiles at the hostel and an office in KL, but the floor tiles were not installed

> Paid RM44,698 after certifying the completion of renovations to a community centre in Bandar Tun Razak. Again, it was found that the work had not been carried out.

> Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara) paid RM84,640 for two Acer Aspire 5052 laptops when the price for each was RM4,500 (equivalent to paying for 18 units but collecting only 2 units)

> The Balik Pulau Mara Higher Skills Institute also paid RM40,830 more for 15 Hewlet Packard P3005X laser printers and RM3.45 million for 450 Dell Precision desktops (equivalent to RM2,700/unit for laser printer and RM7,600/unit for desktop)

> They also bought teaching manuals worth RM358,476, which were never used (equivalent to buying a double storey house, but leaving it for the drug user)

Malaysia Boleh lagi, dan lagi! Since Mr N keeps on shouting "1Malaysia" whereever and whenever for no reason, I think it is more appropriate to rename it as "完Malaysia", judging by the attitude of majority of his own people.

Feel proud that my MP appears in the media to voice out and fight against all this "Third World Mentality" activities so openly carried out for the past few years. Look at his leng chai face below.
