KL Tower Scandal – Selling A Cash Cow That Generates RM20 Million For Just RM3.8 M

[superadmin]

Iconic Menara Kuala Lumpur deal stinks to high heaven!

THE Menara Kuala Lumpur (KL Tower) was an iconic self-made landmark achievement for Malaysia – literally and figuratively – when it was opened to the public in 1996.

It signalled worldwide Malaysia’s relentless roaring march – from a backward third world nation – to be among the top elite nations of the world. It gave confidence that achievement of Vision 2020 would be a push-over, just a matter of bidding time. Interestingly, both the KL Tower and Vision 2020 was launched in 1991.

Yet as we enter 2023, our country is mired in controversies: a divided and in-fighting citizenry, religious and racial hatred and intolerance, economy and finance in the doldrums, mainly spurred by mega corruption and unbridled abuse of power.

Yes, again self-made. Looking at every global indicator of progress, we seem to be plunging free-fall from the top of the tower into the abyss of despised least developed countries.
