Protect Sapura from bankruptcy, Najib urges govt

[superadmin]

Rafizi’s day in court will put Sapura Energy under scrutiny

Former Sapura Energy Berhad CEO Shahril Shamsuddin, upset with remarks by Rafizi Ramli, has taken the former Pandan MP to court.

Rafizi had issued the statements because he disagreed with Najib Razak’s suggestion on March 21 that the government inject funds to save Sapura Energy.

He said he would defend his remarks about Shahril’s remuneration in court, adding that what he had said was to “protect public interest”.

Many Malaysians would welcome the trial so that Sapura’s alleged mismanagement will be put to public scrutiny. They want to know if the alleged excesses of its former CEO and the failure of the board and managers to save the company from near bankruptcy are true.
