PETALING JAYA: The G25 group of former senior civil servants has called on the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate the alienation of six flood retention ponds in Kuala Lumpur and address claims that its chief owns a substantial amount of shares.
In a statement today, G25 said it was disappointed that the anti-graft body had yet to respond to Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh’s call for MACC to state its stand on the 2019 Auditor-General’s Report, which stated that six flood retention ponds in Kuala Lumpur had been approved for various development projects.
Stressing that MACC should investigate whether there were vested interests behind the change in land use, G25 said this was especially important in view of the recent nationwide floods which have caused “terrible losses”.
