“The record must be set straight, and these lies put to an end,” said the Minister.
“Firstly, the use of a certain level of vehicle is required for global events such as an APEC Leaders’ Summit.
“Secondly, as with past APEC hosts, these vehicles will be purchased by the private sector at cost.
“Thirdly, the price the Maserati will be sold to the private sector is less than the sale price of a Toyota Land Cruiser VX, while price of Bentleys will be more than the Toyota, but not the ridiculous K2.3 million each claimed by the desperate member of Opposition.”
