Nahhh. Both lost as government need to pay compensation. the amount maybe around 2 bil plus a lawsuit.

Govt didn't laid off these 20k ppl. Gamuda and the 800 companies did.  They took the risk of only having 1 source of income (govt project) and this is the consequences they need to face.

One man's loss is another man's gain. Just because these ppl you sympathized so much didnt get the job, doesn't mean other ppl won't get it. So the job supplies are still there.

Seriously what's wrong with jobless? Go find another job then. Spend less. Manage personal finance. There are always job offers. Ppl are just too demanding for good pay.  I got sack before, but am still alive.

Impact economy eh. Big words. Sorry not an expert in economics but since you said think big, ya. I do think slashing costs serves better benefits for the time being.

let me guess.

the trade secret is paying many $$ to last mof for songlap.

if gamuda nothing to hide just show the book. comment sence

Any truth in this?

Can you cite references?

Got money, other people will rush in to work.....

If this GAMUDA so action and proud? Why they run back asking for help? This kind of mentality asking government for favor and help to get contract is why all the contract overprices...

Go ahead Tony Pua....fkc these fuckers and their tongkat mentality......without government support them, they die...fkcers.....

My company always ask our supplier to break down all the cost, itemize line by line and provide detailed explanation. Heck, even their staff cost and yearly increment are to be shown to us before any contract can be awarded.

Few times we caught our supplier giving their non-performing staff 5% increment!! Hey that is our cost and you just wasted on a non-performing staff.

Anyway, trade secret is just a fancy word for "big fat profits we would like to hide from you", afterall this is construction stuff, cost, bom, method are generally well known.

But I thought some big shareholder of gamuda is frm “payung kuning”... so with tat as backup... tats y dare to pressure government with tat 20k headcount

no new development today?
