 KUALA LUMPUR : The government’s plan to buy new military equipment, especially the radar system, will only punch a bigger hole in the yearly budget and burden the public, said two DAP MPs. Steven Sim (DAP-Bukit Mertajam) and Julian Kok (DAP-Setampin) said in a joint statement today that the government should form a parliamentary select committee to discuss the MH370 issue rather then buy new military equipment in light of the air tragedy. On Saturday, Acting Transport Minister and Defence Minister Hishamuddin Hussein said the government would replace the ageing military equipment, especially the radar system. The plane bound to Beijing with 239 people on board went missing in wee hours of March 8. It has been almost three weeks the search and rescue team still failed to identify any debris or wreckage of the plane. FMT
