UK local council turned their noses down on Malaysian Ministers

It would have been a great plan. Convert an old research center in Brickendonbury into a "sports center for Malaysian athletes" using the money from Malaysian pockets. The public protested, but Najib turned his nose down on mere public. The press protested (knowing fully well that it is a waste of public funds, RM 490 million and the project will only benefit a certain minority of Malaysians) but the Ministers were not listening. They were fully determined to get their "second home" in the UK.



Finally it had to come from the British local council whom were as unconvinced as the Malaysian public. Who were the Ministers trying to fool? Certainly not them. To use public funds (Malaysian funds) to renovate the research center to train a football team from a third world country? A team who couldn't even beat a group of Eskimos with their snow shoes on? Malaysia's football team (as in the case of our Universities) are ranked in the 3 figures category, if you must know.

So, thank you very much from the Malaysian public to the East Hertfordshire district council. You have helped us save a lot of money which would be better spent improving our education system, public sanitation, roadworks, etc. all of which are in pretty bad shape. But of course our Ministers prefer to spend our money elsewhere. Somewhere where they could use exclusively for themselves. God Save the Queen.
