Much ado about 6000RM per school

Saw this summary in the Star pointing out that the major Chinese dailies gave coverage to the fact that RM1.4 million was disbursed to 248 Chinese schools for refurbishment projects last year. This works out to roughly 6000RM per school per year which probably can refurbish one or two toilets. Didn't Pak Lah's secondary school in Penang get an RM20 million disbursement for a facelift sometime last year?
