PKFZ Failures: Project Management & Contract Management

Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman Datuk Seri Azmi Khalid said there were weaknesses in the scandal-hit Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) project, especially in its marketing and project management, particularly contract management, and this had burdened the cost and led to many other issues.


"We found the weaknesses to be more inclined towards project management... contract management itself...," Azmi Khalid said, adding that if project was marketed and 90 per cent of the area was taken up, the issue would not have come up.

"But because of the marketing, it became a big issue and placed a burden on cost, and various issues came up, as we know today," Azmi said.

Datuk Seri,

You have rightly pointed out the fault. That is profound knowledge! But the government have been emphasizing on building competencies on Project Management for the last ten years. Why are the representatives still incompetent? Do you need more seminars? Call me, please!

Sorry to diagree. they are not incompetent. They are all very smart peeopl. The issue here who's interest they are looking for, for the govt or self interest.

Seminars dont work, it only provide them coffee and refreshement, it is the will of these people to do thing for the best interest of the stakeholders.
