TODAY is cabinet’s meeting and one of the agenda is to discuss new fuel prices. A lot of assumptions have came out but my prediction is the price will not go down below RM 2.00. So…Shahril; as what EGO’s said in Ratatoille ” SURPRISE ME”.

My the other wish list is TNB to lower down the tariff….

P/s : Oil and gas industry affected badly due to current economic chaos – weak USD, low demand, geopolical uncertainty, production ‘shut down’, many moreee…… reflecting one thing.. don’t dream for another big b*nus.

Yes, another ‘low’ story since this shopping complexs should be a blessing to the local here. MESRA MALL OTHER RETAILS OUTLETs operating like they haven’t got any problem BUT Giant still raising ‘ AKAN DIBUKA’ signages.

I dunno whether this is true or not but at the end, the workers (local or non local) of Giant will be suffered as I was heard some of them have been temporarily transfered to other location nearby such as Giant Kuantan and Kuala Terengganu (BUT my local friend told me some of them also been transfered to as far as Penang).

Yesterday, Malaysiakini has came out with this ceriter ..

Operasi Giant terlewat akibat MB?

Jimadie Shah Othman | Oct 28, 08 3:43pm

kemaskini 5:28pm Operasi pasar raya besar Giant di Kerteh terganggu lebih sebulan selepas gagal mendapatkan kelulusan daripada Majlis Perbandaran Kemaman (MPK), didakwa akibat campur tangan menteri besar Terengganu.

Sumber-sumber pasar raya itu dan MPK memberitahu Malaysiakinihari ini, ia bercadang membuka premis barunya di Mesra Mall di Jalan Kemaman-Dungun sejak 24 September tetapi gagal mendapat lesen.

“Kerana tidak dapat (September), kita cadang mahu buka pada 10 Oktober, serentak dengan pembukaan Mesra Mall, tetapi tidak dapat juga,” kata sumber.

giant hypermarket and mesra mall terengganu 281008 building Rangkaian pasar raya milik GCH Retail (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, yang berusia 60 tahun, difahamkan selewat-lewatnya dibuka pada 15 Oktober tetapi hingga sekarang tidak jelas kenapa belum menjalankan perniagaan.

Sumber di pihak berkuasa tempatan itu berkata, masalah lesen Giant itu “berkaitan dengan Datuk Ahmad Said”, yang juga wakil rakyat Kijal.

Menurut sumber pasar raya terkenal itu, ia telah memenuhi semua syarat yang ditetapkan untuk menjalankan operasinya termasuk mendapat pengiktirafan keselamatan daripada jabatan bomba dan mengikuti garis panduan pengubahsuaian bangunan MPK.

Pasar raya itu sekarang, tambah sumber Giant, ia hanya menunggu lesen untuk memulakan operasinya.

Ditanya jika MPK terus enggan memberikan lesen tersebut, sumber itu berkata “tunggu sahajalah.”

Mesra Mall, yang dibangunkan oleh KLCC (Holdings) Sdn Bhd di atas tanah seluas 12 hektar dan diurus oleh Suria KLCC Sdn Bhd, telah dirasmikan oleh exco pembangunan luar bandar, usahawan dan koperasi Datuk Mohamed Awang Tera pada 10 Oktober lepas.

Difahamkan Giant merupakan penyewa utama kompleks membeli-belah yang diberikan jolokan “mutiara timur anda.”

Menurut pelan lantai Mesra Mall, Giant ditempatkan di penghujung kanan dan kiri bahagian depan kompleks itu.

Malaysiakini setakat ini gagal mendapatkan reaksi menteri besar Terengganu.

Seorang pegawai kanan Ahmad ketika dihubungi berkata “tidak mengetahui” tentang dakwaan terhadap pemimpin tersebut.

The purchase of the Cougar EC 725 helicopters from Eurocopter to replace the ageing RMAF Nuri helicopters has been deferred until the country’s economy improves, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said. The Prime Minister, who is also the Defence Minister, clarified that the cost of the purchase was RM1.7bil. He said the allocation would instead be channelled to other public programmes which provided high trickle-down benefits to the people. The decision, Abdullah said, was made during the Economic Council exco meeting on Oct 13, when the Economic Planning Unit had been directed to restructure the financial allocations for projects implemented under the Ninth Malaysia Plan for all ministries.
