Sarawakian’s Money

In his Budget speech for 2019 Sarawak Chief Minister Abang Openg listed a sum of over RM2 billion as “investment income” That means that a huge capital sum of taxpayers money has been “invested” by the UMNO supporting State government in past years.

Sarawakians have a right to know the full details about where that capital sum came from that produces these mega dividends but their turncoat government is unlikely to produce them.

As much of the money in question may have come from the rape of the State’s tropical forest by ex CM Taib and associates a full and independent accounting should be made public. Will PH burnish its reputation by ensuring that this is done and that the MACC look into ALL aspects of past Sarawak State asset management?
