Description

Explore one of the most controversial chapters in the history of British foreign aid. This book provides a detailed case study of the Pergau dam project in Malaysia, a project that became a center of political and economic debate. Due to its high cost, the project was a poor candidate for aid funding, yet it was provided as part of an irregular promise linked to a major arms deal. Through an analysis of two parliamentary inquiries and intense media coverage, this text examines the landmark judgment that declared the aid for Pergau unlawful. Tim Lankester examines the decision-making processes within the governments of Britain and Malaysia, looking at how key politicians and stakeholders influenced the outcome. This study serves as a significant resource for understanding the complexities of international aid, government accountability, and the relationship between trade deals and development assistance.
