the stolen jet engine incident reminds of the saipem-peremba jv storeman for the petronas gas pipeline project from kapar to sitiawan many years ago. this storeman, a chinese guy of course was hired by saipem after he ingratiated himself with a senior construction engineer of saipem. both had previously worked in mmc for the first pipeline project from kerteh through peninsula malaysia. this storeman had a colleague who opened a hardware store not far from saipems store in kapar. so hardware , like hardhats, boots, etc ordered by saipem from the hardware store was placed into the storemans custody. not surprisingly , these hardware had a tendency to disappear, they were conveniently smuggled out back to the hardware shop. and saipem unwittingly ordered the very same stuff to replenish its store. its a cycle, many many purchase orders for basically the same hardware. i don't know whether saipem ever knew about this but am aware that the project manager, mr savini, had his suspicions.
so this jet engine case., i am willing to put down 1 ringgit and bet that there is a chinaman somewhere in this scheme as the malays in the RMAF are too conscientous like everywhere else
