PETALING JAYA: The RM30.75 million contract for replacing 200 lamp posts in the Klang Valley must be explained in detail as it appears to be too costly, says the DAP.

Its public complaints bureau chairman Lim Lip Eng said there is a need for Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to be transparent and provide details of the work involved and the pricing.

Earlier this week, it was reported that the contract was awarded to Sarawak Consolidated Industries Berhad (SCIB) via Ennova Sdn Bhd.

If not you, then who? DAP asks DBKL on RM30mil lamp post project

PETALING JAYA: Kuala Lumpur City Hall’s (DBKL) denial of appointing Sarawak Consolidated Industries Bhd (SCIB) to replace 200 lamp posts in the Klang Valley has raised more questions than answers, says a DAP MP.

In a statement yesterday, DBKL denied reports it gave the RM30.75 million contract to SCIB, which was awarded allegedly via Ennova Sdn Bhd.

This was despite SCIB making a filing with Bursa Malaysia saying it had been awarded the job.

DBKL said it never authorised any third party to appoint SCIB nor any of its subsidiaries to carry out projects.

Speaking to FMT, DAP public complaints bureau chairman Lim Lip Eng questioned who was actually paying the RM30.75 million and who was its recipient.
