Don’t taxpayers have the right to know how much Putrajaya paid ex-AG Apandi?

ONE wonders what makes the lawsuit filed by former Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali against former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir and the government regarding the termination of his contract ‘so special’ that the quantum of settlement cannot be divulged to the public.

While it can be understood that the terms of the settlement of the lawsuit are classified as confidential under the Official Secrets Act 1972, at least such secrecy should not be extended to the quantum of the settlement.

After all, the money to settle the lawsuit belongs to taxpayers, hence, the Malaysian public has every right to know how much Putrajaya has agreed to pay Apandi as settlement or whether the government has made the right decision to pay him that sum of money.
