PUTRAJAYA (March 2): The government will look into efforts to overcome weaknesses and wastage of funds as revealed in the Auditor General's Report 2021 Series 2, Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Mohd Zuki Ali said. "We will examine, not investigate, find a way to improve to guide us in future so that the same thing will not happen again," he told reporters after officiating the Putrajaya Open Day 2023 (POD 2023) here on Thursday (March 2). According to the AG's Report 2021 issued on Feb 16, overall, the implementation of the federal government's activities, projects and programmes were carried out in accordance with the set objectives, but there were still weaknesses such as the output targets, and the results set were not fully achieved.

KUALA LUMPUR: The inflation rate in Malaysia could exceed 10 per cent if the government ceases subsidies for essential goods such as rice, sugar, fuel and electricity. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the government will spend RM64 billion this year to ensure the people, especially those in the Bottom 40 income group (B40) can continue to benefit from subsidies. He said it was among the government's efforts to reduce the burden on the people, especially with the recent Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) increase.

KUALA LUMPUR, March 9 — Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is confident that he and his Opposition party will overcome all their current adversities and beat the ruling parties to form the federal government at the next general election. The former prime minister said Bersatu had gone against the odds in the past and not only survived but triumphed, and could do it again. In a lengthy speech at the Bersatu annual general assembly today, the Pagoh MP recalled how the party had faced great difficulty to get official recognition by the Registrar of Societies a few years ago, and more recently had its bank accounts frozen by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) on allegations of money laundering.

KUALA LUMPUR (March 7): FGV Holdings Bhd proposes the government look into consolidating fragmented palm oil smallholders from Federal Land Development Authority (Felda), Felcra Bhd and Rubber Industry Smallholders Development Authority (Risda) under one entity so that they can meet international standards and increase profit amid increasing demand for sustainable tropical oil.

PERHAPS taking the cue from dictatorial former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Prime Minister (PM) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has so far shied away from taking civil action against the long list of publicly-known suspects in the bitter battle raging in Malaysia on corruption. Thus far, former PM and Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin heads the list of top leaders facing corruption charges. It's not known whether Dr Mahathir and family - and former finance minister and multi-billionaire Tun Daim Zainuddin - are on a separate list to face civil action.

GEORGE TOWN, March 23 — The Penang state government will request assistance from the Dutch authorities to carbon-date ancient artefacts from the state, including skeletons, that were being kept in the Netherlands. Deputy Chief Minister II P. Ramasamy, who led a delegation from Penang to the Netherlands, said the bones could be between 3,000 and 4,000 years old but this would only be confirmed through carbon dating. Carbon dating is the technique used to determine the age of a specimen by measuring how much of the radiocarbon isotope it contained.

Asia-Pacific banks' additional Tier 1 (1) bonds contain the same clause used by the Swiss to write down the debt of Credit Suisse Group AG, roiling the global market. A report by research firm CreditSights said the existing terms and conditions of regional lenders' 1 notes 'permit the regulators to impose losses on these instruments, similar to what Finma imposed on the 1s of Credit Suisse'. Still, Pramod Shenoi, a co-head of Asia-Pacific research, expects officials in the region only to invoke the clause if a lender lacks capital.

THE much-awaited moment for the Opposition camp to hear from the horse's mouth whether it is justified to describe the Prime Minister's (PM) recent three-day official visit to Saudi Arabia as both a failure and wastage has passed with no show by three Perikatan Nasional (PN) big guns. Communications and Digital MP Fahmi Fadzil tweeted how the absence of the trio - Opposition leader Datuk Ser Hamzah Zainuddin, the coalition's chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and PAS president Tan Sri Hadi Awang - has been an anti-climax to the PM's Question Time (PMQT) session which was slated for 10am this morning.
