In Malaysia it is part of our building tradition that hospitals need to experience some "sickness" before it can be used to treat sick patients. Maybe it is a new building code so that the building will create a more sympathetic atmosphere for the visiting sick.
Remember the spanking new Sultan Ismail Hospital of Johor Bahru that is still infected with fungal growth?
Now this is an older story as described in this malaysiakini article there is Growing opposition to demolition of KK's general hospital . I wonder if soneone already has an eye to capture this valuable piece of real estate?
Perhaps the opposition is about who has managed to secure the site and the others are envious as it is probably way below the market value.
The NST has a different story on the same hospital. It seems that Sea sand the cause of 'sick' tower . This means that the Ministry was cheated by the company that built the hospital and I suggest that the government should sue the civil engineer and the contractor. It does not matter if the person responsible has died - if it was built by a company, the latter can be held liable.
For a start, the NST report should have disclosed the names of the civil engineer and the company that built the hospital.
