Come LET Bribe to have things done faster

This morning went to work as usual and while waiting to have something to do. Decided to browse around.

Then found this interesting news from The Star Online: Friday October 7, 2005 online star: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2005/10/7/nation/12250307&sec=nation

ACA detains Perodua executive

BY LOONG MENG YEE

SHAH ALAM: A Perodua executive has been detained by the Anti-Corruption Agency for allegedly “arranging” fast delivery of MyVi cars to customers for fees of between RM2,000 and RM4,000 each.

Working with certain dealers, the 31-year-old man is said to have enabled buyers to get their cars within two weeks if they were willing to pay.

The waiting period for delivery of the cars is reported to be about seven months.

Sources said that following a tip-off, the ACA picked up the man on Monday together with a 41-year-old car dealer in Klang.

Initial investigations showed the executive had amassed between RM40,000 and RM50,000.

“He enticed the dealers by giving them a generous split from the money earned,” said a source, adding the man was believed to have offered the dealers 50% of the gains from each transaction.

The source said that the car dealers would offer anxious buyers a chance to cut the waiting period for a certain sum of money.

If a deal was struck, the dealer would forward the buyer’s particulars to the officer for “processing.”

Both the officer and the dealer would be detained until tomorrow.

Those found guilty of corruption face a penalty of RM10,000 or five times the bribe amount, whichever is higher as well as between two weeks and 20 years in jail.

At last i know the real reason behind why everyone who had book the Myvi earlier on had to wait for so long and that's including me. I forget to bribe the SA to make sure i'll get my car earlier and noneed to wait in queue as others. :S. WTF is this! I wounder why we don't learn it from school. If you got the money and need anything done advance or fast. Just bribe. :/ SHit.. Waited for about 4 month and i'm still waiting for the car :/ I guess it's time to call up the SA to have a chitchat on when my car going to arrive :/.
