While Egypt Defence Minister, Tantawi, will head the Army Council , Msia Defence Minister got this problem .
DAP national publicity secretary Tony Pua will not file a
report to the MACC over the defence ministry’s purchase of six offshore petrol vessels (OPV). He said this was because his article on the issue, which was posted in his blog recently, only wanted the minister, Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, to justify the RM6bil purchase.

Each time ha ha Mp Tony Pua hightlight the topic eg purchase of six offshore petrol vessels (OPV) 10 Feb 2011 , in order to get the answer ( the details on what exactly are we buying with RM6 billion… ) , you need to find other sources …..
——– Thursday February 10, 2011 – The RM6bil needed to procure six littoral combat ships (LCS) was due to the increased cost of materials, state-of-the-art weaponry and other aspects, said Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) chief Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Jaafar.
The ships, to be built locally by Boustead Naval Shipyard in collaboration with six reputable overseas shipyards, had better capability than the offshore patrol vessels (OPVs) currently used by the RMN.

Terengganu Investment Authority (TIA) was established on February 27, 2009, and was later renamed 1Malaysia Development Berhad.

Controversy : The involvement of 1MDB in the multi-billion ringgit Kuala Lumpur International Financial District development project barely a year after its
establishment has drawn criticisms from the opposition. Opposition leader and Member of Parliament for Permatang Pauh, Anwar Ibrahim, has openly questioned the credentials of the company. He told Parliament that according to the records held by the companies commission, 1MDB “has no business address and no appointed auditor. ”
But so far today it has a triple-tier check-and-balance system comprising a Board of Advisors, a Board of Directors and a senior management team.

Quite surprise Tony Pua ( cant wait 31 March 2011 ) blog between April-May 2010 didn’t inform this matter
1MDB’s profit figures for the year ended 31 March 2010 , totalling 425 million ringgit , have also been challenged by Member of Parliament for Petaling Jaya Utara , Tony Pua, who questioned whether the figures may have been a result of hefty asset injection into 1MDB by the government , such as the transfer of land rights to the company .

So YB Taichi ( lebih hebat than Jet Li who his master is from Shaolin while Tony one is from Karpal Pusing ) or Tony Pua say MACC is baseless and ridicules itself on 2 counts – said his statement did not accuse the Ministry of purchasing low-end OPVs at for RM1 billion each.
His statement requested the Ministry to justify its purchase by giving detailed specifications on the type of OPVs which was being acquired since the original Minister’s statement as reported also by Bernama did not carry details.

AmResearch senior economist Manokaran Mottain said while he agreed that there was no cause for alarm in Malaysia, there was a need to maintain vigilance on food prices ….. there was a need for
the Government to constantly monitor the situation.
Manokaran said in Malaysia, generally there was no shortage of supply for most essential food items as well as commodities.
