The big number

The estimated amount of money(s$44 million) the Malaysian goverment spent on the country's 50th anniversary of independence.The sums was spent for the event.More than 20,000 people took part.



The criticism came as scrutiny grew using the state funds.The opposition has been critical of the goverment over the Port Kilang Free Zone that opened last year.Its original cost was RM1.845 billion shot up to RM4.2 billionby the time it compeleted,requring the goverment to offer a US1 billion (s$1.5 billion) loan to support it.
