ONE wonder whether there were ‘double standards’ or self-censorship on the part of the media for choosing not to reveal the identity of the so-called private company CEO in the centre of misappropriation of COVID-19 stimulus packages worth RM92.5 bil by the former Perikatan Nasional-led (PN) government (main pic).
At a glance, this is not so much of public shaming or ‘passing the guilty verdict’ as the individual who was believed to have accepted bribes to connect contractors and other parties was only brought to the Putrajaya Magistrates’ Court on Friday (Jan 6) and remanded for five days to facilitate investigation.
Such curiosity comes begging after one mainstream media ‘openly’ mentioned the names of two senior company directors linked to the ‘fire sale” of the Menara Kuala Lumpur concession after the duo were issued with a four-day remand order – also by the Putrajaya Magistrates’ Court – yesterday (Saturday, Jan 7).
