UMNO’S SUDDEN ATTACK OF CONSCIENCE: A RUSE TO HELP NAJIB & FAMILY SPILL THE BEANS ON JHO LOW – BEFORE JHO LOW SPILLS THE BEANS ON THEM?
Its like a breath of fresh air on the acrid subject of the 1MDB corruption and money-laundering scandal – not only someone echoing what I have been trying to bell the cat with regard to the strange and extraordinary relationship between former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and Penang playboy billionaire Jho Low, but someone from the UMNO leadership doing so!
Yesterday, UMNO Vice President Khaled Nordin said Najib and his family must volunteer any information they may have on fugitive businessperson Low Taek Jho so they may clear their names smeared with allegations relating to the 1MDB scandal.
In a statement, Khaled said it was the “responsibility” of the former premier and his family to do so.
“I very much believe that the effort to seek the truth and justice in the 1MDB scandal will be accorded the cooperation of Najib and his family. If they know or possess any information on Jho Low, of course, it becomes their responsibility to share that with the local authorities.
“It is not just the right thing to do. In fact, it will help to clear the name and image of him and his family, which have been tainted by the scandal.”
Khaled said this was especially as the capture of the financier could finally put an end to the never-ending saga of the 1MDB scandal, which has been dominating the national agenda.
It is a pity that Khaled did not make such a statement two years ago! But its better late than never!
Would a full investigation into the 1MDB scandal exonerate Najib of any crime or wrongdoing of corruption and money-laundering, and show that Jho Low was not his partner-in-crime in the “kleptocracy at its worst” 1MDB scandal which made 30 million Malaysians “suckers” in the 1MDB scandal?
If so, why was Najib such an obstacle to a full, independent and comprehensive investigation into the 1MDB scandal when he was Prime Minister, to the extent that the doctrine of separation of powers was subverted and Parliament and Judiciary co-opted to aid and abet in his conspiracy to suppress the 1MDB corruption scandal and national institutions, whether the Police, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, the Auditor-General’s Office and Bank Negara suborned to serve this crime?
Is Khalid right that Najib and his family volunteering any information they may have on Jho Low will clear their names “smeared with allegations relating to the 1MDB scandal” or the reverse will take place, in nailing the truth that all the allegations about Najib with regard to 1MDB are the “truth, the real truth and nothing but the truth”?
Khalid is right however that the time has more than elapsed for Najib to tell the truth about the 1MDB scandal and his actual relationship with Jho Low, as the 1MDB scandal is a larger issue not just affecting Najib and his family, but has dominated the national agenda.
The 14th Parliament had ended its first meeting with a motion directing the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) to conduct again a detailed investigation on the embezzlement of monies and the scandal with regard to 1MDB and its related companies in order to restore the dignity of the Dewan Rakyat and for all related information to be made public.
I had repeatedly asked Najib to declare that he would testify and fully co-operate with the new PAC investigations on his role in the 1MDB scandal, which caused Malaysia the infamy, ignominy and iniquity of a global kleptocracy. Would he do so?
In August 2016, I had asked Najib why he had not “walked the talk” and proved he was a patriot by defending himself as Prime Minister, the government and the nation from the United States Department of Justice’s (DOJ) allegations about the largest global embezzlement and kleptocracy in the 1MDB scandal?
Is Najib aware that before the 14th General Election, UMNO veterans led by the UMNO Veterans Club secretary Mustapha Yaakub had declared that it was treason to defend Jho Low who had caused Malaysia to be scorned worldwide as a global kleptocracy and that a sane Umno leader would never support Jho Low, much less “love” the man?
With the call by Khaled, the time has more than come for Najib to respond to my various calls in the last two years on him to enlighten the public about his unique relationship with Jho Low, viz:
1. Who made use of whom in the 1MDB “goldmine” – Najib or Jho Low; or was the 1MDB “goldmine” a joint operation by both of them?
2. How many times had Najib met Jho Low, where and when, between the 13th and 14th General Elections and did Najib meet Jho Low when he was the Prime Minister during his official visits to China? What did they discuss during their meetings?
3. Had Najib read the US Department of Justice (DOJ’s) 251-page kleptocratic litigation on 1MDB-linked assets which gave in great detail how Jho Low had bought the billion-ringgit Equanimity luxury superyacht with embezzled 1MDB funds?
4. Was the failure of the Najib government to make a formal request to Hong Kong Government to arrest Jho Low the same reason why it did not stop the 1MDB scandal in all its four phases from 2009 – 2014, as it was from the very start a conspiracy by Jho Low and “MALAYSIAN OFFICIAL 1” (MO1) – who is none other than Prime Minister Najib – to “fraudulently divert billions of dollars (United States) from 1MDB through various means, including defrauding foreign banks and by sending foreign wire communications in furtherance of the scheme, and thereafter, to launder the proceeds of that criminal conduct, including in and through U.S. financial institutions”?
5. Had Najib read the ten “killer paragraphs” in US DOJ’s kleptocratic suit to forfeit 1MDB-assets which directly linked Najib’s RM2.6 billion donation to 1MDB and revealed that the RM144 million pink diamond necklace for “wife of MO1” came from stolen 1MDB funds?
It is not only Najib who should come clean on Jho Low. All the top government leaders who had previously leapt to the defence of Jho Low as if they were Jho Low’s courtiers instead of top public officials of an independent and sovereign state should come clean why they had previously acted with such alacrity to become Jho Low’s defenders and apologists, committing not only a great dereliction of duty but betrayal of the interests of the nation!
