'Feedlot project not in a mess'
The National Feedlot Corp (NFC) has denied that the project is in disarray, instead it has met the target set by the government.
The AG's Report said that NFC was in a mess and its production last year were only 3,289 head of cattle or 41 per cent of the target set but its chairman Mohamad Salleh Ismail said as the 30-year contract was only in the third year, teething problems during initial stage were to be expected.
When
commenting on the Auditor-General's Report at the NSC office in Gemas
today, he said,
"In fact, NFC has raised 8,016 head of cattle in 2010, surpassing its target of 8,000 head of cattle. We
are importing cattle from Australia and we have to feed them for
between four and six months. We do not slaughter them soon after
arrival. We will not slaughter the cattle if there is no market. And when they
are not slaughtered, cattle feed costs will also increase."

Aiyo if like that, no point having the annual Auditor-General's Report when its findings are always either disputed or denied by the affected parties.
