According to the Malaysian Insider the controversial Eurocopter deal is being cancelled on account of the economic crisis.
I believe the PAC shoud carry on into the decision-making process of the Defence Ministry as the critical decision was made well into the global financial meltdown and Malaysia's falling revenues from oil and palm oil.
In fact the LOI was signed a few days before the ministry swapped hands.
I wonder if the following scenario is apt:
Two guys plan to rob a bank. On the way there the police catch them and they claim innocence even though they are carrying some suspicious tools. Can they claim they did not mean to rob the bank that day?
Instead of cancelling this important equipment for our troops, why are we not paying competitive rates? Surely we don't want more NURI crashes?
I think the PAC should also look at the state of readiness of the Nuris together with this Eurocopter deal.
