Comment posted Bakun: More public money to be pumped in? by Andrew I.
It cannot be purely commercial financing.
That’s because most people with money to invest would like to see a return before they’re dead.
Look at Eurostar.

Hey, thanks for the link, frags. I enjoyed also the second exclusive interview with seh peh kong. - Man forgives soldier who blinded him
Yeah, and you might die crossing the road tomorrow, God forbid. - Man forgives soldier who blinded him
Thanks for the heads up, Anil.An eye for an eye? This is Jesus in action. People who preach should open their eyes. It’s not literal translations people are looking for, the quibbling over form of worship.
I’ve stopped going to church because when I come out, I don’t find peace. It’s about turning around more heathens, doing more fund-raising for the church and running down other denominations.
Well, this goes to show He didn’t die in vain.

Well, that is a reality. As Tun M says, FDIs are low because the investor’s own countries now need the funds.So, presumably when food exporting countries don’t have enough to feed their own people, they won’t be selling to other countries.

There are something like 11 more dams to be built in Sarawak. Sarawak electricity requirement is only a small fraction of total electricity generated by Bakun. Yet, plan is afloat for another 11 dams. And you can bet your bottom ringgit that Taib’s family (interests) will (be involved)….
It doesn’t matter to them if thousands of natives have to lose their homes and ancestor land. And what Taib wants, Taib gets.
Um… 1.6b for helicopters? 5b for Valuecap bailout? Azalina’s PIMPena? Now Bakun dam 3b… What next…
Stop raping the Rakyat’s money!
Meanwhile, wholemeal bread is STILL RM3 per loaf…
…
The BN rich – especially that ridiculously rich Taib Mahmud and family – get richer still while we the poor tax-payers (note Taib Mahmud does not pay tax!) finance their lavish lifestyles by continuing to vote for the BN. Time to dumb them all lock, stock and barrel…! Our chance will come during the snap general election due by mid-year 2009!
Unless people in Sarawak speak up in the forthcoming state elections, the plunder will go on and the people’s hard-earned money will continue to disappear. The Taib family will continue to (be wealthy) while many more people and families living in the rural areas will be uprooted and their source of income and living destroyed. C’mon, people of Sarawak… wake up and join the fight for justice!
I was in Kayan and Penan village and they have no electricity even though we are now in year 2008.
These dams do not help the villagers except the CM and his cronies to earn more monies. I have been against this indiscrimiate activities in Sarawak.

Look at Eurostar.
how about the timber logged in the dam area. Must worth lots of money. Did we pay someone to ‘clear’ it?
time for sarawakians to stand up and kick out the government.
its mind boggling. 40% reserve margin is more than enough buffer but this govt is gonna spend billions to create bigger buffers. UMNO appetite for money seems insatiable! onlyway to stop the bleeding is to kick BN out.
sarawakian will always vote BN
just a sweet and candy will guarantee
to get their votes.

Andrew, it is not Eurostar (one lessee of the tracks), but Eurotunnel (actual lessor).
The Bakun Dam is an economic and technological dead-end.
That’s the fact of it.
Its just the Federal Government refuses to acknowledge it for “unknown” reasons.
