I can’t imagine I read this.
An error, supposedly made by the Economic Planning Unit (EPU), has given Perak RM795mil more to spend for Ninth Malaysia Plan projects.
Mentri Besar Mohd Tajol Rosli Ghazali said the EPU had allocated the money for a double track project that had been scrapped.
“Maybe, they have made a mistake,” he told a gathering at Batu Kurau, near here, when opening a village community hall yesterday.
He said there was an earlier plan to construct a double rail track from Changkat Jering, near here, to Padang Rengas, near Kuala Kangsar. However, this plan was scrapped.
The money that the EPU has allotted would now be used for other purposes.
RM795 mil or in real figure, it’s RM795,000,000.00.
You might be one of them who had "contributed" this big present to Perak, thanks to the brilliant Economic Planning Unit (EPU).

That’s 19875000000 plates of Char Kuay Teow. More than enough to make anyone FULL BEYOND ANY DESCRIPTION.

Sorry, it should be 198750000. My bad for messing up the DOTS and COMMAS.
Eh, maybe that’s what happened leh?!
Still, that is a huge number of plates of Char Kuay Teow.

I wish my company has an oversight in my salary too.
