Khir Toyo Bungalow that don't make sense

Khir Toyo (former Selangor Menteri Besar) said he took a RM3.5 million loan to buy a sprawling Balinese-style mansion in an exclusive neighbourhood, brushing off allegations that the property is valued at RM24 million. He has threatened to sue Sekinchan Assemblyman Ng Swee Lim for making the claim, pointing out that HSBC would not have approved the loan if it was not above board and also countered claims that he could not afford to purchase the house on what he was being paid as mentri besar at the time.

However yesterday it was revealed in court that, Former Selangor Menteri Besar Dr Mohd Khir Toyo spent roughly RM6.5 million to renovate his mansion from its original Italian tropical design to the current Bali concept, the landscaper engaged to do the job, Nasir Ismail.

The amount, he testified on the third day of Khir's corruption trial in the Shah Alam High Court, was stretched out in roughly 13 cash payments between 2006 and 2008.

Nasir said he collected the payments, amounting to RM500,000 in cash each time, about five times from Ditamas Sdn Bhd director Shamsuddin Hayroni and around eight times from Khir, who was MB at the time, at his official residence.

He explained that in the beginning he picked up the progress payments from Shamsuddin, whom Mohd Khir had appointed as his agent to handle all matters regarding the renovation, for as he told Nasir, “he had no time to handle it himself”.

Later on, Mohd Khir would call him to come to his official residence to collect the payment.

Asked why the payments were made in cash, Nasir said he was bankrupt and cannot administer a bank account.

For official purposes, Nasir said he used the bank account of his wife, along with her company Lisa Ubersari Bali Landscape and Pottery, as a front for his landscaping business.

It was also reveled that A company director paid RM6 5 million for two plots of land and a bungalow before allegedly selling the properties to Dr Mohd Khir Toyo for only RM3 5 million the former Selangor mentri besar’s graft trial was told today.

The maths just don't add up! How do you buy a property for only 3million that was previously sold for 6.5million?

How do you spend 6.5 million on renovation when your property cost only 3million?

How does a Menteri Besar get 6.5million Ringgit in Cash?!?

Where is the money trail?!???!

And we haven't even talk about his Disneyland Scandal yet!!

I hope Selangor never falls into the hands of such corrupt people ever again!!
