TRAMATIZED MUHYIDDIN SAYS NO ROYAL COMMISSION ON NFC “THREE GENERATIONS OF IMBECILES ARE ENOUGH”
The Government is responsible for the whole country and not only the corporate sector. The Government cannot look in terms of profit and loss as the whole country is watching
There is no need to comply with opposition demands for a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to investigate the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) which operates the Gemas cattle-rearing project.It traces a trail of political influence money that begins with contributions from wealthy corporations and individuals and ends up in the bank accounts of some of the most powerful UMNO warlords in the Malaysia
Muhyiddin: No royal commission on NFC
Transparency International Malaysia (TI-M) slammed today the National Feedlot Corporation (NFCorp) for attempting to divert attention from investigations over allegations of abuse of public funds in the controversial RM250 million national cattle-farming project.
The graft watchdog said in a statement that the Auditor-General had only clarified that he did not call the project “a mess” but confirmed the project had not fulfilled its objectives for reasons including the failure of NFCorp, which belongs to the family of minister Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, to meet obligations.
“The NFC should not divert attention from the investigations being carried out by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and the police to determine if there was any misuse of public funds that were meant for the feedlot project.
“The recent statements on what words were actually used in the A-G’s report should not distract attention from… whether public funds for a national project were being used for other purposes,” said TI-M secretary-general Josie M. Fernandez(picture).NFCorp, which was awarded the project in 2006, had thanked Auditor-General Tan Sri Ambrin Buang yesterday for clarifying that he had not called the company a “mess” in his 2010 report, saying the explanation would help strengthen public perception of its operations.
The company said the Auditor-General’s statement on Friday would help put to rest months of “tireless bashing from hardline critics” against NFCorp, which operates the scandal-ridden National Feedlot Centre (NFC) project.
