A Big Fish in the South: The-Friday-before Intermission

Amok as well as a clean-up of Iskandar. While you wait for for a fish to be marinated, let's rewind a little to around a time only after Arlida Ariff was transposed as CEO of Iskandar Investment Berhad (IIB). (Note: her husband was charged justice upon Monday, a first in a list of people approaching to be attempted upon a recommendation of a Malaysian Anti Corruption Commisison). In March, Earnst & Young had only completed a audit ordered by Khazanah, a major shareholder of IIB (it owns 60% of IIB, EPF as well as Johor state government's investment arm Kumpulan Prasarana Rakyat Johor (KPRK) each owns 20%). It was reported which E&Y found cases of mismanagement as well as rapist crack of trust, among alternative things. Khazanah arch Azman Mokhtar, or Amok to his friends as well as to bloggers, studied a E&Y inform as well as discussed with stakeholders a next course of action. Aides said he was penetrating to invite a applicable authorities in as well as let them probe deeper a commentary of E&Y. Nothing to censor as well as he wanted a rogues out. He was proposing which Khazanah/IIB board a police inform as well as another to a MACC. Strangely, not everyone was in favour of his idea. A deputy from Kumpulan Prasarana (who was, in effect, a deputy of Johor state government) who sat upon a IIB board, in particular, was not too penetrating! to go a long with Amok's idea. But Amok was austere as well as a IIB Board called in a cops in April this year to investigate tbe commentary of E&Y. A certain Board part of was austere which a inform to a MACC was unnecessary though a MACC in a future came into a picture, nevertheless.

A short story, though it should put some things in correct viewpoint as well as accord credit where it's deserved. Of particular seductiveness to corruption-watchers should be a value of potential collaborations in between a MACC as well as debate auditors such as Earnst & Young.
