Up to MACC to investigate Airbus' investments in Malaysia - Loke




Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook said it is up to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to undertake the necessary investigations into Airbus’ interest in Malaysia.
Loke (photo) was commenting on the corruption allegations implicating the aircraft manufacturer and two executives of AirAsia.
When met at the Transport Ministry's Chinese New Year get together and monthly gathering in Putrajaya, Loke said MACC was an independent agency and it was free to do whatever investigations it deems fit.
"I think that is the job of MACC. It is not our (Transport Ministry) jurisdiction. Up to MACC to take the necessary step. The government will not interfere," he said.

It was reported recently that Airbus paid RM204 million and offered RM225 million more to sponsor a sports team linked to two unnamed “key decision-makers” at AirAsia and AirAsia X.
MACC chief commissioner Latheefa Koya was reported as saying the commission had commenced an investigation and contacted the authorities in the United Kingdom on the matter.

Airbus’ investment in Malaysia is through Sepang Aircraft Engineering Sdn Bhd, its maintenance, repair and overhaul subsidiary, as well as Airbus Malaysia Customer Services facility, both of which are fully owned.
On another matter, Loke, who is DAP national organising secretary, had brushed off speculations on the collaboration between Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and UMNO president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
"Don't waste time on rumours. We are facing a crisis (2019 novel coronavirus). I think the whole world is facing a crisis. 
"We should work towards the betterment of the country, should work together to fight coronavirus and contribute to our economy," he said. - Bernama
