Kit Siang: Is Najib telling MACC to hands off Taib?


DAP has asked if Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's call not to entertain allegations about  Sarawak Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud’s alleged billions in wealth was a signal to enforcement agencies not to probe or question the matter.

"I have no doubt that without Najib's pre-emptive strike today, the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) would have taken the completely neutral but meaningless stand that it was prepared to investigate into the BMF report about Taib and his family's gargantuan wealth and asset accumulated from 31 years of Taib's chief ministership of Sarawak.

The Ipoh Timor MP (right) was referring to Najib's dismissal this morning of Swiss-based NGO Bruno Manser Fund’s (BMF) report, saying “There are all kinds of allegations, jangan kita layan (let's not entertain it)." 

BMF’s 45-page report claims Taib is the richest man in the country with a fortune of US$15 billion (RM46 billion).

It also alleges that the Taib family's total wealth is worth US$21 billion (RM64 billion).

NONEThe report (left) was released last Wednesday in Brussels to coincide with federal minister Bernard Dompok’s visit to the European Commission and is available on the Internet.

Aside from Taib, individuals profiled in the report include Taib's brother Onn Mahmud, who is the second richest family member with an estimated net worth of US$2 billion, while Taib's eldest son Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib, a major player in Sarawak construction, property and energy businesses, is ranked third at US$1.5 billion.

"Giving credibility to the BMF report are news reports today about the matrimonial dispute between Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib and his former wife ... as there has been no settlement offer from Mahmud’s lawyers to resolve the long-standing dispute," said Lim.

'MACC duty-bound to investigate'

Lim said Najib's dismissal of the report was “sad and tragic” as it demolishes the MACC's credibility, integrity and professionalism especially after the commission launched a media blitzkrieg in Umno-linked New Straits Times this week on its successes.

"Where is the credibility of the Government Transformation Roadmap and the National Key Results Area to fight corruption and in particular to eradicate 'grand corruption' when the BMF report ... could not be used by the MACC as basis for its anti-corruption mission?" 

Describing the dismissal as "most disappointing and irresponsible", Lim called on the premier to have the MACC investigate the allegations made in BMF report.

"Najib should retract his implicit 'hands off' directive to the MACC and declare unequivocally that the MACC is duty-bound to make use of the BMF report to conduct a full, thorough and wide-ranging investigation into allegations of 'grand corruption' by Taib and his family," he said.

  1. These crims should be tied to trees in the central citises, be spat on, stripped naked, knifed, whipped and let the birds and flies finish them off.

    We've reached the brink. We call the biggest Curse from God on them. They have destroyed the lives of over 20 million Malaysians, we'll put scroes of them in Jail. Just wait and see. Twitter quote: ‘Mubarak cried and resisted leaving the helicopter that took him to prison.’ Let this, Gaddaffi & Saddam etc etc be a warning to others. Alan Newman, NZ.

  2. People in truly transparent & democratic countries like UK, US, Canada, Aust & NZ see things too clearly. Malaysians have been fooled and deceived in the 40+ years before the internet, while BN, UMNO & cronies stole and plundered big times to the tune of RM$100-300billion (as estimated by financial analysts). Scorpene, NFC are only the tips of icebergs. Foreigners have no respect for these PBB & UMNO leaders, in fact they are a big shame and disgrace to all of you. They are hard-core criminals best put behind bars or executed.

  3. Najib: “Even if our bodies are crushed and our lives lost, brothers and sisters, whatever happens, we must defend Putrajaya,” “I would like to stress here that I have never interfered in MACC’s operations. They are independent and free to carry out their investigations on anyone.” “You help me I help you.” Then likely to Musa, Taib, MACC, Shahzirat, Baginda: We saw nothing heard nothing.” Perhaps to the dynamite blasters: “Finish her off & shut her up”. “ Promises fulfilled.” Are these the thoughts and words of an honorable, ethical leader with the country’s interest at heart or someone bent on sabotaging opposition, human rights NGOs, on deceit, gangsterism & crimes? Answer it yourself.
