SLIMY AIRPORT?


Malaysiakini reported this - A new RM1.6 bil 'budget' airport

Malaysia has approved plans by budget carrier Air Asia and conglomerate Sime Darby to build a new low cost terminal within reach of the capital, according to media reports. -

Read all the SPIN HERE and HERE.

Since when are we supposed to build airports to spur economic growth during economic uncertainties? Some new 'economic stimulus' strategy I guess!

Blogger Anil says the Government owes us an explanation ... HERE.

NOW! Why are these two controversial corporate players inviting greater controversy by indulging in such 'mind boggling' dubious deals ... just three months before Abdullah Ahmad Badawi goes away for good?

We know who is hiding behind both Air Asia and Sime Darby, but WHY are these super-supporters of the Badawi regime behaving like a bunch of desperate robbers?

I thought the take-over bid of IJN was the height of their arrogance but it seems we are yet to witness their end game.

These corporate players lust for wealth and greed for billion ringgit projects defies logic, especially during the current political and economic circumstances, but they do not seem to bother about anything at all.

DO WE REALLY NEED A RM 1.6 BILLION low-cost AIRPORT when the Kuala Lumpur International Airport is yet to hit the roof in terms of passenger capacity?

WHY is it that we, the rakyat, seem to be the last to know about such earth-shattering deals?

All such shady and totally unwarranted deals should be STOPPED IMMEDIATELY and should only be reviewed after we are out of the current global financial crisis.

If Air Asia (read Tony Fernandez) is so arrogant and finds it too difficult to work with MAHB then maybe it would be worthwhile for MAS to acquire Air Asia and enhance our airline industry's efficiency by operating from KLIA.

The existing low-cost terminal could be turned into an exhibition centre (like Subang Airport) while the RM1.6 billion for 'another Tony Fernandes airport' could be put for better use.

p/s By the way ... I was told that both the Transport Ministry and its Minister were not in the know of the details of this RM1.6 billion airport robbery ... oooops, airport deal until a couple of days before the cabinet meeting. Is this true?

Pak Lah, do you know anything about this?

All these appears like well culculated political moves to 'kill' Najib.
Someone seem to be pushing such shit down Najib's throat, maybe with direct orders from the sleepyhead.
It's simply not logic for the incoming Prime Minister to endorse such provocative at a time when the chips are down.
Najib should be very, very careful for the remaining 3months or so.

when its SLIMY...it could be a SNAKE.

kenapa the biggest plantation company in the world is into constructing airports now? perniagaan kelapa sawit dah tak untung lagi ker, atau keputusan ini semata-mata kerana tamak haloba?
kalau tak silap saya, beberapa bulan dulu focus Sime Darby dikatakan hanya untuk core business iaitu industri sawit, tetapi sekarang semuanya seakan terbalik.
apakah cawangan lain Sime Darby (selain perladangan) akan di-jual (divested) kepada pihak ketiga dalam masa terdekat?
kementerian kewangan (termasuk menteri) harus bertindak professional dalam isu ini, jika tidak sudah tentu akibatnya akan memakan diri.

DARI PERLADANGAN TERUS KE LAPANGAN TERBANG. KENAPA?

SEBELUM NI PERNAH BINA LAPANGAN TERBANG KE ATAU YANG NI HANYA KERANA INGIN BERSEKONGKOL UNTUK ROMPAKAN BERKUMPULAN?

KENAPA AIRASIA BEGITU MUDAH MEWUJUDKAN LAPANGAN TERBANG SENDIRI SEDANGKAN MAS DIANAK-TIRIKAN?

YANG MANA SATU PENERBANGAN NATIONAL DAN YG MANA SATU PENERBANGAN KESAYANGAN?

HARUSKAH MAS MENGAMBILALIH AIRASIA DAN MEMPERMUDAHKAN SEGALA-NYA?

KENAPA SIME DARBY, AIR ASIA, POS MALAYSIA, ECM LIBRA DAN LAIN2 SYARIKAT YANG BERKABEL TERUS KE SERI PERDANA BEGITU TERGESA2 UNTUK MENGIKAT PERJANJIAN ITU DAN INI?

APAKAH SEMUA INI MUSLIHAT UNTUK SIRI ROMPAKAN TERAKHIR SEBELUM BERAKHIRNYA BULAN MAC 2009?

ABDULLAH AHMAD BADAWI DAH HILANG AKAL KER ATAU SEDANG DI-UGUT OLEH PEROMPAK DISEBALIK TABIR?

KENAPA DATUK NAJIB HARUS MENGIKUT SAJA TELUNJUK DOLLAH 'SLEEPY'?

JIKA KERANA HORMATKAN PEMIMPIN ATAU TAK INGIN ROBEK-KAN BUDAYA UMNO/BN, MUNGKIN KEADAAN KINI SUDAH MELAMPAUI BATAS!

DATUK NAJIB HARUS BERTINDAK SEKARANG DAN JANGAN BIARKAN PETUALANG TERUS MEROSAKKAN IMEJ UMNO/BN DAN KERAJAAN MALAYSIA.

ABDULLAH BADAWI TELAH MENGHANCURKAN SEGALA-GALANYA DALAM MASA KURANG DARI 5 TAHUN! JANGAN BIARKAN PETUALANG-PETUALANG INI MENERUSKAN AGENDA HARAM MEREKA!!

TUHAN, TOLONGLAH KAMI RAKYAT MALAYSIA!

Langsung tak masuk akal. Kenapa perlu di bini satu lagi lapangan-terbang khusus yang jauh dari KLIA? Berapa banyak pula perlu dibelanja untuk pengangkutan menghubung kedua-duanya?

Kenapa tidak adakah cara lain mengasingkan perkhidmatan penuh KLIA dengan perkhidmatan budget? Tengok di Singapura, Budget Airportnya bersebelahan terminal antarabangsa.

Tolonglong UMNO dan BN, janganlah dicurahkan lagi duit rakyat untuk keuntungan satu kelompok kecil. Takkan semua MP UMNO dan BN hanya diam dan turut semata.

DAP, PKR, PAS -- sungguh sedih anda tidak memainkan peranan seperti yang dilaungkan masa pilihanraya -- to check and balance! Kami perlu dengar hujah dan bangkangan yang lebih aktif dari Pakatan!!
