Lanang Bridge toll rate 6/12/2013
Michael
Manyin claimed that the Lanang Bridge cost RM180 million, not 286 million to
build. The bridge is only 1.22 km and
why it cost so much, RM180 million to construct.
En………………people in Sibu are
no longer so ignorant not to know the businesses of collusion between the Development
company and the minister(s)/ministry involved in the dealing to bring up the cost. After all, they have the people in heart to
bear the cost. It is well-understood
that the signature of the minister endorsing the memorandum of understanding means
a sum of money to be given.
Manyin explained that the payment of the
bridge was divided into 3 parts –RM10million in cash, RM90million in kind and
another 80 million through toll.
When a contract was signed between Woodveal
Development Sdn Bhd and Public Works Department (JKR) for the project, the cost
was RM180 million and the cost has been consistent,” Manyin asserted………The Borneo Post (21
November, 2013)
So people
are expected to pay RM80 million for the bridge through toll. The toll for normal car is RM3 and RM6 for the round trip / to and fro is
considered to be the highest toll rate in the country. (ccwen08.blogspot.com/2008/10/most-expensive-toll-in-country.html)
To know
the details, you may access Lanang Bridge toll rate for more information provided by
Owen Choo. She compared the toll rate of
Lanang Bridge and Penang Bridge. People
who use this bridge can’t help cursing Wong Soon Koh. He is believed to have been engaged in the
acts of collusion / plundering with the said development company. 70% of the people in Sibu, Sarikei, Bintango
and the related areas believe so. So he
was almost jilted by the people and he used money to buy Iban votes in Bawang
Assan to retain the seat in 2011 state election.
I don’t
know how many times we people have pleaded the BN government to make Lanang
Bridge toll-free, but they just turned deaf ears. So we people jilted the BN government again
in 505 during the Sibu parliamentary election.
Wong explained that what actually
happened was that during the Sibu parliamentary election, the then Works
Minister Datuk Shariman Abu Mansor had said the state government could make
recommendation or proposal to the federal government for the bridge to be
toll-free, on condition that the people in Sibu rallied behind Barisan National
(BN)
He is
another people so autocratic/UMNO minded.
He is digging his own grave. I believe
he is blind and deaf to the needs of the people. I think
his whole mind-set is in 1980s /1990s when the BN government could exploit
people wildly at will.
Now that he is the sole BN elected
representative in Sibu, Wong said he has no obligation to make the bridge
toll-free.
It is a curse
to say so when he still cashes the salary of being the representative. I guess he has the least idea what “people’s
representative” means. He is just too
self-centred, arrogant and haughty to keep in touch with the reality. He is disgusting. I dare to say he just does not believe that the
worse of SUPP is yet to come in the next election in 2016.
Any party which /leader who is not people-minded and centred is bound for “Holland”. Whether it is true or not, time will tell as
we have entered the century when people everywhere have the full awareness of
what Democracy means and what an individual responsibility is to uphold the principles
of Her. Internet service has no doubt connected the world to fight for Democracy. It is an endless battle to make in-road.
