look at it another way

it could have been songlap rm 10 billion for this project

rakyat kena con only 1 billion

syukurlah...

hahahahahaha


do u know even your insurance to-truck service also got that facility?
to pin-point your location whenever wherever your car break down??

i dont recall they're spending RM1bil for that service and facility,

what centre to set up in 9 states???what kind of centre? hospital like?

kid, u shud know that we are in dread shortage of ambulance in every government hospital now and it is poorly maintained?

u call the center for what?so they can talk all the way to your problem?????

Software developer here.

1 billion for this kind of system is cheap. You have to take into account not just the mobile apps, which can support multi platform (android, ios, windows etc), but also the backend system integrated with the police/authorities systems. Imagine how many police stations, hospitals, fire department etc they are in Malaysia, and then think about how many people it would take to deploy and then maintain this system to all of those places.

This is the first such system in the world, hence they would need to do extensive research and development on the best way to implement this. Also take into account, this is a safety critical system (i.e: bugs in the system can cause loss of human life), so it is important to spend more money to ensure this system is fail proof.

I applaud the authority for having the initiative to do something like this. This is good for us citizens, it can hopefully mitigate the high number of crime rate happening all over our beautiful country.

So guys, stop complaining. I think if this same system would be implemented elsewhere, the cost would be at least 5 billion. But we have a good government, so be thankful for that.

I see, in that case it's worth teh money since it's Google Maps + Whatsapp, but harar version.

can built police station, school , clinic or even upgrade existing facilities with that price tag

hello, location sharing apps are not expensive la. wtf just take the info from the gps location in ur phone. its not rocket science.

1 billion??? better build better roads and public transport

If this is true, than I can understand the cost.

BUT...I want to see a financial breakdown first. We taxpayers should have the right to access such info. Its our money they're spending after all.

However, I expect it'll probably be classified under OSA.

bro, this stuff need one push button la

disable/old person mana ada masa nak watsapp, google map ni, takde kawan pun nak watsapp

apatah lagi watsapp pun kena update selalu

takkan sakit jantung pun kena tunggu update

crap i can do this alone and let it for free. except for the server rentals and link to police, fire dept, etc2.

baru 1b sudah mau kecoh

Lol your statement literally like a true fact, as a TS ifeel want to quote you into first page,

But after click the spoil. Oh god why whywhy.

Sigh. Another day, another songlap case.

I understand money might be used to upgrade the back end of the system but I aint gonna believe that 90% or more of the money went there

ok ok. make sure u use it ok. when someone bantai ur face u use that app see got help come or not

So, an apps that:
one button push to on data, on location, share it take RM1 billion to build?
You are effing kidding me, right?

It's ok.

Ppl spend Rm1.8 million on makiing Pages in Facebook also nothing happened.

RM1 billion sap sap water

I agree, you all think disable / old person know how to use/open phone ? This apps no need use phone. A button is only what it needed.

lol man hahaha...

I'd gladly take this project up for RM100k
