Money, Money, Money (ABBA's song) for another by-election?

Started with a RM3 million aid to a Chinese school in Hulu Selangor, now the 'donations' from Najib has shot up to RM18 million in the Sibu by-election. Unlike Hulu Selangor, the spoils are shared among 67 schools in Sibu. It's better late than never, as the saying goes.

Extracted from FMT here "Najib later announced allocations totalling RM18 million for 67 schools in the Sibu parliamentary constituency. They included RM10 million for 60 national-type Chinese schools, RM5 million for five private Chinese secondary schools, RM2 million for Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sacred Heart and RM1 million for Sekolah Kebangsaan St.Mary."
