GEMAS, Nov 3 — Pakatan Rakyat (PR) vowed today not to let up in its attacks over the National Feedlot Centre (NFC) until Putrajaya admits that the RM250 million project is a failure.PKR strategic director Rafizi Ramli said the opposition intends to turn the NFC into a national talking point as it was a prime example of how taxpayers’ monies had been misused to enrich those in power.

“There are a lot people in Gemas who can raise cattle. Why were people from Kuala Lumpur brought in to raise cattle, (to the point where) the cattle died?
“RM250 million, you should have given it to as many farmers as possible, not one company,” he told reporters outside the main gates of the NFC here.
Rafizi, with PR assemblymen Aminuddin Harun (Sikamat), Ravi Munusamy (Port Dickson), P. Gunasekaran (Senawang), Mohamad Taufek Abdul Ghani (Paroi) and Ng Chin Tsai (Temiang) had earlier tried to enter the NFC.
