Putrajaya, Menara Berkembar Petronas, KLIA antara monumen yang banyak menyakitkan mata negeri-negeri minyak di Malaysia. Sabahan khususnya yang berotak akan merasa sakit hati melihat Menara Berkembar Petronas di Kuala Lumpur bangunan tertinggi berkembar sarang roh-roh pelahap, penjajah Malaya dan perogol hak-hak negeri Sabah tinggal.

I have only gone to Putrajaya once and was so sickened by the colossal opulence that I decided not to go there anymore. Any dealings there, I would rather use the Snail Mail. It is more like a Dreamland created for the benefit of few.

The PM of the day can proudly show that off to all visiting dignitaries. While the poor Rakyat can charter buses to visit the place with gaping mouths of awe. Hui!!! Dashyat Nohhhh!!! Negara kite cukup Maju.

Didn't TDM say something about the cost of That Palace of Golden Donkeys being around RM 17 million. Folks, you go figure.

I have not visited Putrajaya nor wish to do so but am just wondering if there are paved golden bricks on walkways that need polishing, money trees that need hugging, silver elephant statues that need washing to warrant the disgusting amount of money spent on maintenance.

RM1.5 mil for maintenance in putrajaya, a place where there is no place for sports, no public swimming pool, only a giant lake for lovers. Even parks in Malaysia are meant for lovers, not sports person.
Where are the football fields and tennis courts, indoor badminton courts?

Our BN government is trying very hard to create jobs and money for the landscaping maintenance companies.RM18,000,000.00 a years for maintaining the landscaping of Putrajaya.Market rate is 50% rebate to the one who gives out the contracts,ie RM9,000,000.00 which is equivalent to S$3,910,000.00 a year.This guy is making more than Mr SL Lee,the PM of S'pore !

1.5M is OK.....but how do you generate income from this place....no commercial centers, no proper sports facilities....and worst of all no proper public transport ......... its' Mahathir's monument.......and Malaysia must always look at Putrajaya as Malaysia's corrupt capital......like the bridges of Putrajaya.....Malaysia is now heading nowhere.......this country's curse will only be eradicated when Mahathir joins Mahsuri......

What I see is more of a 'crumbling down' in the upkeep of this place rather than the required maintenance.

Wow, RM1.5m per month is a hack lot of money!!! This is about RM 75,000 per day minus weekends. This is about 160 man hours and it equates to about RM 470.00 an hour. Wonder how many Malaysian workers, let alone a gardener earns that much money.

Oh! forgot to mention that there is no need to prune the same tree, cut the same patch of grass, repair the same patch of hardlandscape, clean the lake everyday.

Sure alot of folks will queue up to be gardeners!!

AAB takes his entire carbinet on this Airforce One to have a birdeye view of the GREAT WORK they have done to our country. While flying over the country, they sees some poor farmers working very hard under the hot sun. AAB throws a bundle of RM50 notes out of the window and says, "These people will be very happy today." DMP fllows AAB, throwing a few bundles of RM100 notes and says, "They will be even happier tonight."

The two pilots saw and heard all these. They put on their parachutes, ejects from the plane and say, "The country is going to celebrate tomorrow and it's going to be the happiest day for all the malaysians in 50 years."

Are we surprised? RM18 M a year. That's equivalent to about 600 low cost units that can be given away for free a year.

Unless PR takes over soon, many malaysians will leave the country.

Dear MP Liew, get the job spec of the whole thing and out it out as open tender and see how much we can save.. Then give the tender to the putrajaya govt.

Make it a public process and let the public know that even with a lower cost, the govt will not terminate those sucker leaches...
