No weekend break

The new Finance Minister, Najib Tun Razak is busy working this weekend. He has asked all the agencies under the Ministry of Finance to give him briefings today (21 September) and tomorrow.

Apparently, some projects worth hundreds of millions of ringgit which was rejected by the Economic Planning Unit (EPU) and other relevant agencies but was given the greenlight by an invisible hand, have to be put on hold now that Najib is in charge. The agencies find the projects were not feasible.

It seems, Najib will not agree to those projects which would benefit only certain people with strong cable to some people in power.

Najib will have to watch his back.
