KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 29 — Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad warned Malaysia today of a property glut that would result from the construction of the proposed 100-storey Warisan Merdeka tower.

Dr Mahathir also said the country must learn from the credit crisis in Dubai caused by oversupply of property.

“They can build but maybe later and not now,” said Dr Mahathir at a lecture to revisit his Vision 2020 launched 20 years ago.

Dr Mahathir had previously said that the government should consult the public before proceeding with the project, announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak when tabling Budget 2011.

Government investment arm Pemodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) had defended the RM5 billion project, saying that it would neither involve public nor depositor funds.

When asked for his opinion on the crisis in Dubai, which saw construction projects worth US$582 billion (RM1.8 trillion) cancelled or put on hold, Dr Mahathir claimed that Malaysia could be heading into that direction.

“We also have to be careful, now we can see a lot of cranes in KL. A lot of buyers are speculators, they bought hoping that they can make money from the price increase,” said Dr Mahathir.

“Whether we are going to reach there or not, I’m not sure, but we are quite near there,” he added.

Dr Mahathir also pointed out that he has seen a lot of empty commercial properties being put up for sale or rent.

Jho Low's Girlfriend Paris Hilton drunk and flashing panties ...

Perhaps sensing an opening due to Lindsay Lohan’s incarceration, Paris Hilton appears to be throwing her panties into the ring for World’s Biggest Hot Mess! After a couple arrests for pot over the last few weeks, Paris kicked her election campaign into overdrive Friday night at the VIP Room in Saint Tropez, France by chugging booze, singing on stage and putting on one of her infamous crotch shot marathons! (Thankfully, she had her Krabby Patty covered with a pair of nude panties, so I’m guessing the CDC did not have to get involved.) Joining Paris in her drinkin’, lip syncin’ and camel toe winkin’ fiesta was sister Nicky Hilton and on-again off-again boyfriend Doug Reinhardt, who both joined in on the intimate apparel fashion show: Ahhhh… It’s nice to see Paris back in the headlines again! It’s also nice to get some celebrity panty flashing from someone over 17 for a change ! And is it just me or is there something primevally attractive about a completely wasted Paris Hilton? I think
