RM2.88 juta - ini kosnya bagi menjamu 80,000 tetamu yang melawat kediaman perdana menteri semasa sambutan rumah terbuka hari raya Aidilfitri, Parlimen diberitahu hari ini.
Dalam jawapan bertulis, menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim juga mendedahkan, katerer Kuzie Catering telah menyediakan makanan untuk tetamu dengan kos RM36 seorang.
Anggota Parlimen Seremban Anthoney Loke yang bertanya soalan itu kemudian berkata beliau tidak dapat memberikan komen yang adil kerana tidak tahu sama ada jumlah itu berbaloi atau tidak.
"Bagaimanapun, saya mahu umumkan angka yang saya peroleh ini, jadi rakyat, terutama yang berkunjung ke rumah perdana menteri dan isterinya, sebelum makan, mereka tahu sama ada RM36 itu berbaloi atau tidak," katanya.
Membandingkan perkara itu, setiausaha akhbar kepada menteri besar Selangor Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim dalam Twitter menulis, negeri itu hanya membelanjakan RM13.30 seorang untuk sambutan sama.
Ia bersamaan RM400,000 untuk 20,000 tetamu.-malaysiakini
Berbelanja sakan, duit sapa??? Dulu mami ketua pembangkang di Penang jawab bukan duit Lim Guan Eng...sekarang aku nak kata itu bukan duit Najib Tun Razak, tapi rakyat punya!!!

Najib's Hari Raya bash cost RM2.88 million!...
RM2.88 million. That is what it cost taxpayers to feed the 80,000 guests
who visited the Prime Minister’s official residence during his
Aidilfitri Open House.
In a written parliamentary reply, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Shahidan Kassim also revealed that the food was prepared by Kuzie Catering, and that the cost came to RM36 per guest.
"I can’t give fair comment as to whether this is worthwhile or not,” said Seremban MP Anthony Loke, who had asked the question.
"However I want to announce the figure so that the rakyat - especially those who were there to greet the prime minister and his wife before going to eat - know whether the RM36 we paid is worth it."
Loke said holding open house is a good way to bring Malaysians together, but reminded that it involves taxpayers’ money and urged the government to take measures to reduce the cost.
He suggested that this can be done by calling for an open tender for catering contracts, or by splitting the contract between several caterers instead of awarding it to just one company.
“This is just one function. Throughout the month of Syawal, every ministry and every department holds open house. Imagine: If we can reduce the cost, millions can be saved through prudent spending,” he added.-malaysiakini

Chipmunk - Kuzie Catering belongs to YM Raja Rosly Bin Raja Mazlan or fondly known as "Pak Engku". He has catered for almost every ministry in the government plus for celebrities like Ning Baizura, Siti Nurhaliza, Farhan & Fiza and many more. So it won't be a surprise that there was no 'open tender' when this catering was awarded to them. So much for transparency and the likes of 1Malaysia.
Mohamad Abdul Malik See. - Najib will never spend his own money no matter how much he has. He is a free loader of the highest level. From past reports he has perfected the "Art of timing his official visits to coincide with his personal holidays". Nothing comes free to others except to himself. Serves us the rakyat right for 'voting' him in. Hopefully the kampong folks will know that they were the ones unable to attend his 'free' open house food although it was there who supported him. At least in Pekan.
NewMalaysia - RM36 per pax? What do you get? Fried meehon, curry chicken and syrup? Why not just order a KFC snack plate for everyone, for only RM8++, it would have been much cheaper, at least can save more than 70% of that unnecessary cost!
Antitrax - An open house is not a necessity Najib! even u don't the makan2 etc, if u are sincere the Rakyat will just come and shake ur hand and wishes u Selamat Hari Raya!. Just emulate Nik Aziz, he dont invite Rakyat to his house to celebrate Hari Raya, but Rakyat comes in dozen, and go back home starving but they did not complaining.
SenyumUnta - Well worth it, Shahidan! From the RM2.88million spent we get to know that 80,000 attended at RM36/head in PM's Raya bash! PM is still a crowd puller! Is it really RM36/head (non-receipt?), RM50/head? or RM80/head?
Batang Kali,12 Disember 1948 Tentera British bunuh 24 org kampung.Penjajah British inilah yang diagong2kn oleh UMNO...
