| Why wait a week if media misreported you, MP asks Abu Zahar |

PETALING JAYA: An opposition MP has questioned why Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (ACAB) chairman Abu Zahar Ujang took nearly one week to hit out at the media over alleged misreporting of his press conference last Wednesday.
Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng said Abu Zahar had also failed to explicitly state which part of his press conference the media had misreported him.
“If the media had truly misreported his press conference, why didn’t Abu Zahar immediately explain the matter on Jan 6 or Jan 7? Why did he need to wait until yesterday?” the DAP MP asked in a statement last night.
Lim also ridiculed Abu Zahar for expressing regret over how six ACAB board members had issued a statement “behind his back” that contradicted his stand.
He said Abu Zahar himself had first made a “unilateral” statement without the agreement of all the ACAB board members at his Jan 5 press conference.

KUALA LUMPUR: Defence minister Hishammuddin Hussein wants the maximum punishment to be imposed on individuals responsible for issuing fake Covid-19 vaccination certificates as the action affects the safety and health of innocent people.
He also called for a thorough investigation into the case and to bring all those involved to justice.
“This is something that is hard for me to accept and forgive because it affects the safety and health of innocent people. I want the full force of the law on them and I want to make sure they realise that there is a limit when it comes to profit which affects people’s lives,” he added.
He said this at a special press conference after chairing the Covid-19 Ministerial Quartet Meeting at Wisma Pertahanan, here, today.

| Abu Zahar, Borhan must go on leave until Azam probe completed, says PH |

PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan has called for the heads of two Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) advisory panels to go on leave until a probe on MACC chief Azam Baki’s ownership of shares is completed.
PH’s presidential council said Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (ACAB) chairman Abu Zahar Ujang must go on leave since he has lost the confidence of his board members, citing the statement made by six ACAB members contradicting Abu Zahar.
It also said Consultation and Corruption Prevention Panel (CCPP) chairman Borhan Dolah should also go on leave since he refused to initiate a probe on Azam.
“This is despite the possibility that Azam had committed an offence by allowing his account to be used by his brother by proxy in the trade of shares and warrants.
“A new leadership that is clean, professional and independent is needed to lead the ACAB and CCPP in order for the MACC’s integrity and credibility to be recovered,” the PH presidential council said in a statement today.

Supporters of a prominent university professor, and one of Afghanistan’s most vocal critics of the Taliban, are calling for his release after he was arrested on Saturday.
Faizullah Jalal, a professor at Kabul University, was detained by the Taliban after the group claimed he was responsible for a series of messages on social media attacking them.
Taliban spokesperson, Zabihullah Mujahid, tweeted: “A fanatic named #Jalal has been arrested for his remarks on social media inciting people against the #system and playing with human dignity,” adding screenshots of posts from a social media account with Jalal’s name and photograph.

| Warisan still needs PH despite posing as alternative, says analyst |

PETALING JAYA: Warisan will still need to work with Pakatan Harapan if it hopes to make some impact in the next elections, despite trying to position itself as an alternative to the opposition coalition, says an analyst.
Former academic Azmi Hassan said there was not much that Shafie Apdal’s party could offer West Malaysian voters as Warisan was Sabah-based and carried with it the “stigma of fighting only for Sabahans”.
But the party might appeal to voters if it cooperated with Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman’s Muda since Muda was new and ideologically “refreshing”.
“I consider Warisan-Muda as an opposition pact and it will appeal to supporters who in the first place don’t vote for the government, namely Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional.

Chinese FM wraps up visit in Sri Lanka that boosts trade, while Western media unfairly hypes debt issue
Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi successfully wrapped up his first New Year trip on Sunday in Sri Lanka, the last leg of a multinational trip that also took him to three African countries and the Maldives, with deepened mutually beneficial pragmatic cooperation, which Chinese observers said cannot be shaken by some noise from Western media that labeled such cooperation "debt trap" or "white elephant projects" in order to smear China and sow discord between China and other countries.
During a meeting with Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in Colombo on Sunday, Wang called on China and Sri Lanka to discuss the restart of talks on free trade agreement by tapping the opportunities of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) agreement and China's vast market. Wang said the Colombo Port City and Hambantota Port projects could be engines for pushing forward bilateral cooperation.
China proposed a forum on the development of Indian Ocean island countries to build consensus and synergy, and promote common development, in which Sri Lanka can play an important role, said Wang.

- TSMC reported December revenue of 155.38 billion new Taiwan dollars (about $5.6 billion), up 4.8% from November. That was a record number for a single month.
- Demand for semiconductors, which are key for everything from smartphones to cars, continues to rise even as a shortage of chips has hit several industries.
- Analysts expect TSMC, which manufactures chips for companies like Apple, to benefit from price hikes this year amid strong demand.
Top chipmaker TSMC notched a new quarterly sales record at the end of 2021 boosted by continued demand from top clients including Apple and Qualcomm for semiconductors.
The Taiwanese foundry, which manufacturers chips for other companies, reported December revenue of 155.38 billion new Taiwan dollars (about $5.6 billion) — a record number for a single month, and up 4.8% from November.
For the fourth quarter, revenue totaled 438.18 billion new Taiwan dollars. That’s the sixth straight quarterly sales record TSMC has recorded.
