“Selangor aiming to compete with Singapore

By CHRISTINA TAN

SHAH ALAM: Selangor is aiming to compete with Singapore "apple to apple" * in five years.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo said Selangor was not much different from Singapore except that it lagged in public transportation and IT facilities, and urban services quality.

“Once we are more efficient in public transportation and improve our broadband services as well as the urban services quality, Selangor and Singapore can compete apple to apple.

“We are also improving our port and airport services,” he said after launching a seminar on generating and increasing knowledge among principals and headmasters in Selangor at Dewan Jublic Perak here Monday.”

What complete and utter bullshit, pie in the sky skulduggery, or perhaps a wicked joke?

In five years time, nothing much will have changed; in fact even in the past 50 years very little has really changed for the better in many parts of Selangor!

By the way, Selangor is touted as Malaysia's most developed state, may God help the rest of Malaysia then!

DREAM ON BABY!
