LCS scandal: CED makes RM178 mil claim to govt on day it got appointed: Rafizi
KUALA LUMPUR – A company that was appointed as a subcontractor to implement two supply and manufacturing packages for the littoral combat ship (LCS) project allegedly made a RM178 million claim to the government the same day the contract was awarded.
This is according to PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli, who cited a finding from an internal investigation conducted on the controversial project.
“The probe showed that a second layer contractor – Contraves Electrodynamics Sdn Bhd (CED) – had made a claim amounting to RM178 million as a mobilisation fee, on the same day it was appointed, despite the company being set up just 45 days prior,” he said in a statement today.
