A report on findings of the studies conducted by Malaysia’s first space traveller, Datuk Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor at the International Space Station (ISS) will be presented to the cabinet by end of August. The report would be studied by the cabinet first before it is announced to the public. [via Bernama]
Although the second space traveller programme had not yet been decided on, Malaysia would still send Major Dr Faiz Khaleed to undergo training to ensure continuity of Malaysia’s space programme… now, this is what I call a waste of money.
The first Angkasawan programme is dubious, but there are rooms for debates whether the project will benefit our country in future or not. However, what’s the point of sending the second man for training when it’s still uncertain if there is any continuity with the programme?
Stop wasting our money.
