I think people are just jumping to conclusions cause everyine loves a conspiracy. I highly doubt there was any corruption going on.

Hfb, sweet heart, when was it the last time that these high rollers gave a rat’s ass about what they had to demolish or what swamp they were planning for developement as long as there is some dough for them when the dust settles down?

I totally don’t understand why they want to rip up that lovely old historic airport for some shitty concrete apartment towers that, if you have read the geologic study on the land, will likely sink into the murk as the area is completely unsuitable for building such towers…it actually almost didn’t work as an airport either. Someone is going to make a lot of money and walk away quickly as the land swallows the development since building the pillars down to bedrock would bite into the margin of profit far enough to make it a very unattractive investment which likely means they won’t do it.

Toby: he does look exactly like President Bush.

kylmä totuus: Yep, he used to be the liberal candidate in most elections in Helsinki. Jumping ship to Kokoomus who rule here helped him become mayor.

Strange that so few of you seem to have any awareness that Little Jussi is the scion of the Pajunen retail empire… nobody worked out what Alepa means? (They sold out to SOK a few years back)

He’s a Liberal by family background, by the way. They’re the ones Phil said he’d back. It figures.

Pajunen only jumped to the National Coalition (Kokoomus) ship about ten years ago. Thus far, he’s been one of the very few turncoat success stories.

Perhaps he was just too high to remember that he had a stake in the airport business.

I agree, this is not good. Perhaps nepotism not corruption. But whatever you call it, appears to be an abuse of his powers.

I wander what is going on with Malm airport these days. I know they want to close it down, but there is (was) a big movement to save it.
