Please give Najib a break! RM9million is ok for flying expenses.

We should defend Najib used of an Airbus A319 jetplane.

In the first eight months of the year, the government has spent more than RM9.1 million in flight costs on a single aircraft to ferry official VVIPs.

In a written response, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mohd Nazri Abdul Aziz said that the government had been renting an Airbus A319 from Malaysian Airlines System (MAS) Berhad since Aug 3, 2007.

The airplane, he added was for the use of “government VVIPs” such as Yang Di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin, Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak and Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

Following a tip-off from a reader, Malaysiakini had reported the premier's aides as having confirmed that Najib was away on Merdaka Day, but refused to explain the reason he was in Perth, other than to say he was on leave. However, there was no formal announcement that the premier was taking leave, as is the normal procedure. It was later confirmed that Najib had indeed flown to Perth for physiotherapy, following his knee surgery, and also for a holiday. This sparked questions as to whether it was fair of the premier to go on holiday using government funds and a government-owned plane. Aircraft owner Syarikat Penerbangan Malaysia Bhd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of federal government investment arm Khazanah Nasional Bhd. Private company Jet Premier One (M) Sdn Bhd is reportedly the operator of the aircraft.

Hei! Give the guy a break! He work so hard for the country. Use a bit of the govt benefits to get knee surgery is ok lah!

Afterall it is only RM9million. Not a lot what!

It is not like it is a RM74million ringgit ring! Now that is a lot of money!

Now that The Royal Malaysian Customs Department (JKDM) has confirmed the existence of a RM24 million (some reports it at US$24million) diamond ring which the prime minister's wife, Rosmah Mansor, was said to have purchased.

The question is who brought it in?? For what purpose!! Do you buy the bullshit that came from the Prime Minister Dept?

Minister in the Prime Minister Department Nazri Aziz said in a written reply to Lim Lip Eng (DAP- Segambut) that the MACC, after checking with the Customs Department, “confirmed that there was no such purchase of the ring”.

“After a few days, the ring was returned to the company owner,” the reply added.

A ring like this just does not come in for a few days to Malaysia and goes out again!? Unless...someone jokingly said that it could no longer fit her finger or that it was not big enough for her finger!

I hope Malaysian will show that we are not stupid and give BN the finger too!!!
