PETALING JAYA: The lack of transparency behind the appointment of 5G rollout agency Digital Nasional Bhd has the potential to evolve into a scandal that is as big as 1MDB, Anwar Ibrahim warned.

The opposition leader said that the apparent unilateral decision reeked of cronyism, and raised the possibility of corruption and leakages taking place.

“And a new scandal will emerge that could be similar to or bigger than 1MDB,” he said in a video. 1MDB, a government investment arm has been roiled in a multi-billion scandal involving money laundering, fraud, and illegal transfers of funds.

He was reiterating a warning he made at the Dewan Rakyat last week where he was reported to have said that the DNB affair “is almost as big as 1MDB. I want to remind the minister that if a mistake is made, it will end up like 1MDB in court”.
