Malaysia Boleh! Again...

Looks like there's more money to be made in this country. First the Second Penang Bridge which costs would escalate by 33% (of course it will go higher!) due to higher costs of building materials; then of course the much touted East Coast Economic Corridor with a whopping RM 112 billion to be spent over 13 years, in addition to the many regions and corridors already announced.

Of course there are those who have done little work but still get paid: so-called 'crooked bridge' builders, and we are still awaiting the quantum of compensation for beneficiaries of the long-maligned Broga incinerator project.

I wonder whether any more of these mega-projects would be doomed to failure...failure in the eyes of the people, but success to those getting the windfall! Truly Malaysia Boleh!
