80% un-used budget???

80% of B$1billion budget for IT infrastructure in Brunei not used in the last 5 years?

Wow, I didn't even know we still have that much. Why not they used that $$$ to improve the internet connection... the prices of these facilities should be cheaper now that US$ is going down and we can be a "Smart Country" as Singapore is "Intelligent City".

I nearly had a laugh when I read that University of Tanjungpura students visited UBD to look at its IT infrastructure. Sorry to say that our IT infrastructure is terrible compared to those in Singapore or UK universities. Even Unimas of Sabah is bigger than UBD. KK is possibly the biggest city in the Borneo Island now.... Should our planners do something drastic now?
