LIKE IT OR NOT, NAJIB WINS THIS ROUND

Despite ongoing international probes into 1MDB, it is likely that the Opposition has been outplayed.

REPORTED BY FREE MALAYSIA TODAY

The release of the Public Accounts Committee report on the 1MDB scandal has been trumpeted as sweet vindication for our Prime Minister. 

For the better part of the past 12 months, Najib Razak has been judged in the court of public opinion as a dictator, a perpetrator of grand corruption, an accessory to murder and even a coward. There have been videos of football fans belting out songs that call for his resignation, art works depicting him as a clown and even a case of someone screaming a profanity at him as he made his way through a crowd. 

These have all instilled a belligerent mood amongst the rakyat, and the PAC report is not likely to silence his most ardent detractors. However, even with the investigations in Hong Kong, Switzerland, the United States and Singapore continuing, it is likely that the PM has won this round.

CLARE BROWN PROVEN INNOCENT: IGP MUST WITHDRAW WARRANT, GO AFTER 1MDB & NAJIB INSTEAD - TONY PUA

REPORTED BY MALAYSIA CHRONICLE

October 17, 2015 –

The Sarawak Report continued its exposé on the minutes of the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) Board meetings with the disclosure yesterday indicating that the Directors (BOD) were furious with the top management team led by Datuk Shahrol Halmi.

The minutes dated 3rd October, soon after the signing of the 1MDB-Petrosaudi joint venture agreement, provided a damning confirmation that all the earlier documents leaked by the Sarawak Report were completely authentic.

Instead, the minutes proved that the Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Najib Razak and his cohort of Ministers, as well as the current 1MDB President, Arul Kanda’s repeated attempts to taint the leaked information and documents by the whistle-blower website are clear cut lies. They have obviously alleged that the exposed documents were “doctored” or “tampered” to cover up the multi-billion ringgit scandal.

The minutes revealed that the Board of Directors were furious with the top executives of 1MDB for signing the joint venture agreement in reckless haste, and without any substantive due diligence; the highly suspicious speed of preparation of the valuation report which was prepared by Edward Morse; and most damningly, misappropriating US$700 million to an account unauthorised and unrelated to the joint venture.

The minutes disclosed that the Board “viewed that the formalisation of the joint venture was completed in a very short time which raises questions as to whether adequate control measures, checks and balances were put in place to protect the Company’s interests”. The Sarawak Report had exposed the fact that the top management of 1MDB met with Petrosaudi for the very first time in London on 23rd September 2009 and signed the joint venture agreement a mere 5 days later on the 28th.

REWCASTLE-BROWN AND ALLEGED CO-CONSPIRATORS ASKED TO DENY PARTICIPATION IN WHATSAPP GROUP 'MEET'

REPORTED BY THE NEW STRAITS TIMES

Those implicated in an alleged conspiracy to topple Datuk Seri Najib Razak's administration have been challenged to deny that they had any part or were involved in the WhatsApp group "Meet". 

"Meet" was so named to signify a meeting the key personalities had in Singapore in February, and is part of the evidence Thai authorities had been looking into in its investigations into Xavier Andre Justo's blackmail of his former employer PetroSaudi International Ltd. It is a three-month long thread between Justo, Clare Rewcastle-Brown, who was acting as his broker, as well as The Edge Media Group's top guns, Datuk Tong Kooi Ong and Ho Kay Tat.

Petaling Jaya Utara member of parliament and Public Accounts Comittee member Tony Pua, while not a part of "Meet", was widely mentioned, especially by Rewcastle-Brown and Justo.
