MP SPEAKS Terengganu Menteri Besar Ahmad Said announced that he will lead a Malaysian delegation's 15-day visit to Antarctica beginning Jan 17.

A statement from the Mentri Besar's Office said the working visit "is initiated towards enabling Malaysia to contribute to research on climate change which has become increasingly unpredictable."

First of all, how is this 15-day jolly luxury cruise to Antarctica going to benefit Malaysia? If Malaysia has scientists involved in climate change, they would be better served studying the impact of climate change through massive deforestation happening in our country.
