TELITI: Taiping-Banting Highway – Talam, Europlus, IJM (Pt 1)

I was asked by my boss to do a little research into the company that was awarded the contract to build the Taiping-Banting Highway.

Despite previous attempts, I’m no expert in doing corporate research, nor am I an industry insider. So part of the reason I’m posting this is to see whether people have got more [...]

Khaild Ibrahim on the EPF aquisition of RHB

I’m no expert on acquisition, but TS Khalid, Treasurer for PKR, does seem to raise some cogent and distressing points.

I happen to have an English version of his op-ed, enclosed below.

Kg Berembang pics from 5th March & updates for 7th March

little points: More intimidation against PKR members; Simpang Renggam – Suhakam, drugs; Nazri: government = unthinking voyeur?

PKR’s Dep Sec-Gen Dr. Xavier Jeyakumar had white paint splashed across his house by unknown assailants in the dead of Monday night. Dr. Jeyakumar staunchly believes the attack is politically motivated. This infruriating act of cowards will not deter those who fight for what is right!

TELITI: Toll Hikes ‘07 – Who profits the most off the rakyat’s hardship? (Pt 1: Preliminary findings on owners of LITRAK)

A statement released yesterday by the residents’ committee pointed out that serious health and environmental hazards are associated with the use of cyanide.
