KUALA TERENGGANU <\/strong>\u2013 Terengganu government wasted RM10.5mil buying 26 buses that had to be virtually grounded when it abandoned plans to use the new buses to ply urban and inter-district routes because of objections from existing bus operators.<\/p>\n

The wastage occurred because the state government had failed to carry out a comprehensive study before implementing the project<\/p>\n

<\/span>The Auditor General\u2019s Report released on Monday said such studies were needed to avoid failure in meeting the objective.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the report, the state secretariat had in 2007 appointed two companies to supply the buses.<\/span><\/p>\n

The state government had in February this year decided to distribute 18 of the buses to various agencies and departments.<\/span><\/p>\n

The report also noted that a subsidiary of a government-linked company that was supposed to utilise the buses had no experience in the transportation business.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the state secretariat\u2019s report, the audit also found the cost of maintaining two Proton Perdana V6 was higher than the cost of procuring the vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n

A total of RM308,731 was spent on maintenance of the two cars that were originally purchased for RM234,054.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Auditor was unable to analyse the cost of maintenance because the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Agency had seized the files on the two vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Auditor has also uncovered unauthorised use of fuel cards by personnel in the state secretariat and the Public Works Department.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Auditor has also called on the state government to monitor the activities of its companies to ensure they observe good corporate governance, abide by the law, make a profit and pay dividends to the state.-The Star<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
