PUTRAJAYA: The Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (ACAB) has cleared Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Azam Baki of any wrongdoing over his purchase of corporate shares.
At a press conference this afternoon, board chairman Abu Zahar Ujang said they had sought an explanation from Azam on the matter.
“Azam had explained that his share account was used by his brother, Nasir, to purchase shares that he (Azam) did not have any pecuniary interest in.
“The purchase of shares was made in the open market in 2015 and there was no conflict of interests,” he said.
The shares were then transferred to Nasir’s account that same year, said Abu Zahar.

PUTRAJAYA: Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Azam Baki has finally spoken on his alleged ownership of shares, saying claims that he controls many companies are “lies”.
At a press conference today, Azam claimed that there were efforts by certain parties to undermine the MACC’s credibility.
“I did no wrong. Claims that there is a conflict of interest on my part are baseless,” he said.
“My share accounts are used by my brother. I have no interests in the shares bought. The shares bought by my brother and the companies have nothing to do with (any) MACC probes.”
Azam said he will be taking legal action against the parties who first raised the claims against him, for trying to tarnish his reputation, though he did not disclose who specifically.

| After Mahathir’s attack on chopsticks, what’s next? Banana leaf? |

By Mariam Mokhtar.
Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad unleashed a disgraceful diatribe against the Chinese, and claimed that they had failed to assimilate because they wanted to preserve their own community, customs and ways.
Referring to the use of chopsticks by the Chinese in Malaysia, he said, “The Chinese eat with chopsticks; they don’t eat with their hands. They have not adopted the Malaysian way of eating food. They retained the chopstick which is an identity with China, not with Malaysia, and many other things.”
Dr Mahathir is scraping the bottom of the barrel with his latest attack on the Chinese.
What’s next on his agenda? Banana leaf?
Since when was eating with hands the Malaysian way of eating food? Malaysia is a melting pot of many cultures, but eating with hands in Malaysia is synonymous with the Malays and Indians.
So, what prompted Dr Mahathir’s latest launch against the Chinese? Is he preparing early for GE15 and pitting Malays against non-Malays?
It was Dr Mahathir’s divisive policies and his affirmative action plan, which destroyed race relations in Malaysia.
Under him, the Bureau Tata Negara (BTN), a propaganda tool, was used to brainwash impressionable and innocent young minds into adhering to his Ketuanan Melayu policy.
The society was divided into Malays and non-Malays. Why blame the chopsticks?
Here are some pertinent questions for Dr Mahathir.
If Chinese Malaysians stopped using chopsticks to eat their food, would they be given equal status as Malaysians in Malaysia?
Would the Chinese have greater access to scholarships and a place at public universities including Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM)?
Would Chinese children be accorded places in Mara boarding schools?
Would the New Economic Policy (NEP) be disbanded?
Does it mean the Chinese are no longer required to hand over 51% equity in their companies to Malay businessmen?
If the Chinese willingly gave up their chopsticks, would a non-Malay be made Vice Chancellor of a public university, or the CEO or chairman of a GLC?
Would he be made the head of the armed forces?
Could the most qualified and principled Chinese become prime minister?
Would Chinese who refused to eat with chopsticks be allowed to set up a law firm and practice syariah law, especially if he had read syariah law at university?
If the Chinese volunteered to forego eating with chopsticks and opted to eat with their hands instead, would Dr Mahathir ensure they would not be called “pendatang” anymore?
Conversely, are Malays who work in an office environment and are required to wear suits failing to assimilate because they are trying to be western?
Why not require them to wear Baju Melayu instead?
Why has Dr Mahathir picked on the use of chopsticks by the Chinese when in reality, it is the quota system, the racist agenda, the NEP and the Ketuanan Melayu policies that have discouraged assimilation?
The majority of Malays refuse to visit a Chinese household during festive days like Chinese New Year because many dread the presence of dogs, but more importantly, they have been indoctrinated by ignorant ulamas that they cannot eat or drink from the crockery and glasses of non-Muslims.
The Chinese family will accommodate their Malay/Muslim friends with paper plates or disposable cups and cutlery, but to no avail.
Many Malays refuse to attend Chinese weddings because they are “fearful” of being served haram food, despite their Chinese hosts making special arrangements to order food and separate crockery and cutlery from a halal caterer for their Malay/Muslim guests. Many Malay guests do not turn up, despite saying they will attend.
If Dr Mahathir wants to see a fine example of assimilation, all he has to do is visit Sarawak.
They promote unity through racial diversity. Family members intermarry people of different faiths and cultures. On festival days, the same family sits at the dining table and can be seen eating with chopsticks, their hands, or with fork and spoon. This would be a very rare sight in Semenanjung Malaysia.
Dr Mahathir’s greed for power resulted in the controversial Project IC of the 1990s.
In this politically motivated move, many Filipinos became Malaysians overnight. Illegal migrants were given Malaysian identity cards provided they voted for the ruling party. Citizenship was exchanged for votes.
Project M (M for Mahathir), as it is also called, destroyed the racial and religious harmony and demography of Sabah. Is this what Dr Mahathir means by assimilation?
Today’s Malay is a confused being. Some have abandoned their Malay culture and adopted Arab dresses, mannerisms and speech.
Why does Dr Mahathir not censure the Malays about their failure to assimilate a Malaysian identity?
Dr Mahathir said many Indians and Arabs “became Malays” by sacrificing their own ethnic identities to adopt the Malay language, customs and names.
He said, “They were accepted by the Malays as Malays, even though it’s obvious they are not Malays.”
Doesn’t he know that the Indians and Arabs need not sacrifice their own ethnic identities?
It is alleged that many Indians rejected their own culture and became pseudo Malays because of the privileges that come with becoming a Malay/Muslim.
The former Indian, on becoming Malay, or rather a pseudo Malay, will find a whole new world of opportunities that were previously unavailable to him as a non-Malay. These incentives may be government aid for the small trader, scholarships and housing allocations.
One has only to think of the former husband of the teacher, Indira Ghandi, whose former husband denounced his own Hindu religion and Indian ethnicity to become a Muslim.
Eleven years after kidnapping his youngest child from her mother (Indira), the police claimed that he could not be traced and brought to justice.
The police were prepared to ignore a court order instructing them to find the convert husband.
This sort of “assimilation” brought more division in the society and unhappiness to this particular family.
So, what is Dr Mahathir’s definition of assimilation?
As a former PM, he is not promoting unity and he has failed miserably to show leadership by example.

KUALA LUMPUR: A 70-year-old landlord was slapped with a RM695,000 fine by Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) after his tenant was suspected of tampering with the electricity meter for bitcoin mining activities.
Wu Tuan Chiang said he rented his shoplot at Bandar Puteri Puchong to an “IT system solution company” for RM1,600 a month in May 2019.
After receiving the notice from TNB, he found that his shoplot had been vacated since December 2020 and he had not been able to trace the tenant.
Wu was among 10 building owners who took their case to MCA’s Public Services and Complaints Department head Michael Chong.
At a press conference here today, Chong said the 10 owners had jointly accumulated electricity fines totalling a whopping RM1,758,000 following the misuse of their properties.
He appealed to TNB to look into the complaints of these “small-time’ property owners.

Traders that use nails, staples to secure food packages can be fined, jailed: health DG
KUALA LUMPUR – Food traders who use nails, staples, or other similarly dangerous materials to secure food packaging can be charged in court, said Health Director-General Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.
He said any trader convicted of the offence could be fined not more than RM10,000 or jailed not more than two years or both under Regulation 36 under the Food Hygiene Regulations 2009.
Besides, Dr Noor Hisham added, a heavier punishment could be imposed if the materials were found in the food.
“Section 13 of the Food Act 1983 states that any person who prepares or sells any food that has in or upon it any substance that is injurious to health commits an offence and shall be liable, on conviction, to a fine not exceeding RM100,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years or both,” he said in a statement today.
