Perdana V6 fleet: RM1.15 million in 4 years, RM131k in 2 months for Idris Jusoh car in 2008

paultan | More figures related to the maintenance of the Terengganu state government’s fleet of Proton Perdana V6 Executives have been unveiled. This is truly a whole can of worms!

Terengganu Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Said said a total of RM1.15 million have been spent on maintaining the state’s 16 car fleet since they were purchased in 2004. This figure includes the repair costs of RM175,229.97 and RM132,357.76 for two of the cars that was revealed earlier this week. In addition, former MB Idris Jusoh’s car incurred a cost of RM131,600 in the first two months alone this year during the period he was the MB before he was replaced after the elections by Datuk Ahmad Said.

Datuk Ahmad Said is personally using his 18 year old Mercedes-Benz as his official car as it was still in good condition. He added that the main culprits are gearbox maintenance and fuel consumption, which leads me to believe that these huge figures also include the fuel bills for the car.

The MB added that the Terengganu state government will be happy to auction off the newly-purchased E200Ks and return to using the Perdana V6 Executive if the Federal government bears the cost of maintaining the fleet.... selanjutnya.

no2umno - Aku pun setuju cuma rakyat tak boleh ikut cara MB Terengganu. Deposit pun duit rakyat, maintenance nya pun duit rakyat. Kalau aku beli. deposit duit sendiri, installment duit sendiri, repair pun duit sendiri.
