A peaceful morning waiting for my parcel to go on delivery. These lately tend to arrive in the middle of lunch hour. Earlier, some altercations in mindspace, as forces of good try to corral the evil created by mishandling and misunderstanding the situation. It’s no one party’s fault. Like they say in the marines, “just suck it up”.
I am starting anew trying to write my first novel, for young adults, codenamed BaH. All previous attempts had failed after just a few days. This one must be the golden idea I need.
As usual, I ran and worked out, pre dawn. Now I have to adhere to a healthier diet as well. I have a blood test late this month on the folks’ orders. Using me to hide their innards in worries them no end. Even so, they still get payback.
So it may be a year or so before Najib is released from Kajang prison, on good behavior. A good compromise from the Agong and PM. He’s a lucky man, a survivor and maybe he will do Malaysia proud one day soon.

DISCOVERY ABOUT JUDGE NAZLAN AND HIS WRITTEN JUDGMENT:
"Najib Razak established and formed SRC for the purpose of 'stealing' money." REALITY:
Maybank recommended the establishment of SRC and was paid RM800,000 for it (including all policies/procedures, organizational structure, business model, short and medium-term plans, etc.) at that time. Nazlan himself was the Chief Legal Advisor and Company Secretary for Maybank.
Strangely, this evidence was not allowed to be accepted in Najib's appeal to the Federal Court, even though it directly contradicted Judge Nazlan's findings in his written judgment.
Nazlan not only failed to declare his conflict of interest but also made findings that contradicted facts that he should have known since attending monthly meetings at Maybank, including meetings involving 1MDB directly. HEY! It was not Najib's idea or directive to establish SRC, it was Nor Mohd Yakcop who assessed and recommended to Najib and the cabinet to establish SRC. Soon after, we discovered that Nor Yakcop had received RM85 million from 1MDB the year before recommending SRC, which he kept in a proxy account in Singapore under his nephew's name.

Stop calling it unprecedented!
The big picture: In reality, leaders who left office since 2000 have been jailed or prosecuted in at least 78 countries — including in democracies like France, Israel and South Korea.
Since 1980, around half of the world's countries have had at least one such case, and that's not counting impeachments or coups. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's ongoing corruption trial Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's home was surrounded this month in a botched attempt to arrest him, while former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak remains in jail after a judge this week threw out a challenge to his corruption conviction Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, Argentina's current vice president and former president, was convicted of fraud but remains in office and out of prison because her position carries immunity Like Trump, Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy had his home searched after leaving office. He was convicted in two separate cases in 2021 and sentenced to prison In South Korea, former President Park Geun-hye was sentenced to 24 years for corruption. Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been in and out of court for three decades and was temporarily barred from seeking office due to a tax fraud conviction We were only considering leaders who held the most powerful political office in each country
And don't forget Spiro Agnew who was indicted while serving as Vice President. He later resigned and pled guilty to one felony. Nixon resigned to avoid prosecution and impeachment.
Trump will just be the most egregious, but then, he's the biggest crook of the lot.

Writing tomorrow’s submission is going well. I overcame mid story block to cruise towards the resolution. Just a matter of writing it well from now on. Had a ramen and coffee for supper. Tomorrow, another short run, maybe a partial upper body workout as well. My right arm still hurts from the slow release intramuscular Arip jab this morning. Still alert and awake despite taking a Rivotril. Hope my humble story will be accepted. I’ve never been published except by myself, indie.
Feel like lying down now and closing my eyes. Tomorrow, we’ll see if Najib was pardoned. Maybe how the US will retaliate for the tower 22 attack. Have the airond on, set to economy mode as cooler air helps me sleep. Well, see you guys tomorrow…

Anwar says Najib’s apology over 1MDB scandal ‘well received’

[SCMP is HK Media]
Of the various appointments, Ahmad Zahid being handed the deputy prime ministership was the most expected among political commentators, even though sceptics warned it would taint Anwar’s administration from the outset.
Ahmad Zahid is widely seen as a close ally of Najib Razak, the ex-leader defeated in 2018 polls and now in jail following a conviction linking him to the 1MDB financial scandal. Ahmad Zahid himself is facing corruption charges of his own for alleged money laundering and criminal breach of trust.
Along with Najib, Ahmad Zahid was among a slew of BN officials slapped with corruption charges following the 2018 vote, which Anwar’s PH won under the leadership of elder statesman Mahathir Mohamad.
The PH government collapsed in 2020, following an internal coup backed by Najib, Zahid and other BN heavyweights.
The conservative Malay-Muslim Perikatan Nasional (PN) bloc led by former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin opted not to join the unity government, claiming it would be dominated by the Chinese-centric DAP.

Najib In Jail For Seizing Mahathir's Crony IPP Project
During the era of Tun Doctor Mahathir, the Independent Power Producer (IPP) was controlled by several companies such as Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar, YTL, Genting Sanyen, and Tan Seri Ananda Krishnan, which is the Tanjong Energy Holding. Therefore, 1MDB was instructed to purchase two Tanjong Energy Holding companies that agreed to be sold. Genting Sanyen agreed to sell and when 1MDB through its subsidiary, Edra Energy, took over these two electric power generation plants, they controlled fourteen percent of the country's electricity generation.
Although Syed Mokhtar still holds twenty-five percent and YTL holds half of the power generation, TNB still generates the other half. However, when 1MDB or Edra Energy holds fourteen percent, during tender, their price is nine cents cheaper than Tun Mahathir's four cents and one cent cheaper than TNB itself.
Therefore, the benefit eventually reaches the people, because in 2015, for the first time in history, we successfully reduced electricity tariffs. Imagine if Datuk Najib had the intention to hold fifty percent of the country's electricity production at that time.
1MDB took over all IPP, so subsidies were no longer given. Many people did not know that Tan Sri Ani Arope was actually angry not because Tun Doctor Mahathir gave them four cents to supply electricity to TNB, but because the eight cents was more expensive than TNB. In addition, they enjoyed gas subsidies. This gas subsidy is worth one hundred and fifty-five billion ringgit for twenty-one years.
Actually, the concept of 1MDB is good. However, confusion occurred when Jho Low conspired with Zeti Akta Aziz, Nor Mumamad Yakob, Nik Faisal, and two people detained today at KLIA who were involved in embezzlement.

Malaysia faces hung parliament for first time in history
Malaysia is facing a hung parliament for the first time in its political history, after a divisive, tightly-contested general election left major parties unable to secure enough votes to form a new government.
The result has thrust the Southeast Asian country into fresh political turmoil, as rival leaders scramble to broaden collations in renewed efforts to form a clear majority. Whoever wins will become Malaysia’s fourth prime minister in as many years, as the country grapples with rising inflation and a cost of living crisis.
With all but one parliamentary seat declared Sunday morning, veteran opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim’s multi-ethnic Pakatan Harapan coalition was ahead, having secured 82 seats from a possible 220, according to results from the country’s Election Commission.
Close behind is former Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s Malay-based Perikatan Nasional, or National Alliance, with 73 seats. Muhyiddin’s group includes an Islamist party that has openly backed shariah or Islamic law.
But in the biggest upset of the night, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition, made up of center right political parties including the dominant United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), suffered a stunning defeat – winning just 30 seats.
Officials from UMNO, which ruled Malaysia for more than six decades following its independence from Britain, previously told CNN the party had “a lot of work” to do and did not want to go backwards.
Ad Feedback
Once indomitable figures were also thrust out. The country’s former prime minister, 97-year-old Mahathir Mohamad suffered defeat for the first time in 53 years, losing his seat in the Langkawi island constituency.
The lack of a clear winner in Saturday’s election now presents the possibility Malaysia’s King could become involved, with the constitution granting the monarch power to determine who has the majority in parliament.
Malaysia is braced for major floods. So why is it holding an election?
Both leading candidates declared victory on Sunday, despite results showing neither has enough votes to form a government.
In a late night speech to supporters Saturday, Anwar claimed he had enough support from members of parliament to form a government and would detail his support in a letter to the King. Muhyiddin also told his supporters he was in discussions with leaders of the Sabah and Sarawak political parties to also form a coalition.
Since 2015, Malaysian politics has been overshadowed by the 1MDB corruption scandal, which saw billions of dollars of taxpayers money embezzled out of the country. It brought down former prime minister, Najib Razak, who is now serving a 12-year prison sentence for corruption.
Ahead of the polls, many voters expressed a strong desire to end years of political instability. And on Saturday, voters headed to polls in huge numbers, with state media estimating turnout to be 73.89% – despite heavy rains and flooding which hindered campaigning across half of the country in recent weeks.
Anwar the survivor
If Anwar is able to secure a coalition with enough votes to form a government, it would represent a remarkable comeback for the veteran politician, who was imprisoned for sodomy and released in 2018.
Anwar made his name as a student activist in various Muslim youth groups in Kuala Lumpur in the late 1960s, as the country reeled from the protracted Communist insurgency of the Malayan Emergency.
Arrested in 1974 in student protests against rural poverty, Anwar was sentenced to 20 months in jail. Despite his firebrand reputation, he later confounded liberal supporters in 1982 by joining the conservative United Malays National Organization (UMNO) led by Mahathir.
The freed politician was the heir apparent to then-premier Mahathir until 1998, when he was sacked and charged for corruption and sodomy. He was found guilty the following year, a ruling that led to mass street demonstrations.
The sodomy conviction was overturned, but the corruption verdict was never lifted, barring him from running for political post until a decade later.
In 2008, once his ban on political participation was lifted, he was hit with further sodomy charges.
Following an appeal of the acquittal of those charges he was convicted again and jailed in 2015. Human rights groups were highly critical when the conviction was upheld, calling it politically motivated – a claim the government denied.
Anwar was released three years later, immediately joining with one time political opponent Mahathir to oust the ruling Barisan party for the first time in Malaysia’s history. The success, however, was short lived, with the coalition collapsing after less than two years in power.

Tan The Mystery Man Behind Malaysia-Chinese
Sourced Ballot Machines Approved By The CIA
By Yoichi Shimatsu and S.E. Tournes
11-4-24
Nearly three-quarters of voting machines in the U.S. presidential contest are vulnerable to Beijing-inspired ballot rigging, as discussed in my recent article on the Swiss UBC bank and Chinese corporate takeover of Canada-based Dominion Voting Systems . Here, on the cusp of elections, the curious ownership of the Unisyn ballot counting machines by the reclusive Malaysian-Chinese gambling and game technology mogul Vincent Tan is explored. Despite his questionable record and notoriety as operator of Malaysia’s national lottery, owner of the Cardiff (Wales) soccer team and Los Angeles FC, Tan’s lesser holdings include Malaysia-wide McDonalds, Starbucks and that nation’s Sports Toto lottery.
His SEAGM (southeast Asian game management) got into regulatory hot-water several years ago when its chief product manager along with five citizens of mainland China were charged by the DOJ for running the APT41 Double Dragon hacker group that preyed on unsuspecting sports betters and hacking more than 100 foreign corporations - a local media sensations that led to two of Tan’s daughters (from his covey of 11 children) resigning as board members. That criminal association does not bode well for the nine (9) American states that have certified Unisyn ballot counting machines, including Los Angeles City and County ruled by Scientologist Mayor Karen Bass.
APT is the acronym for Advanced Persistent Threat. Double Dragon - also known as APT41, BARIUM, Axiom, Winnti, Wicked Panda, Wicked Spider, TG-2633, Bronze Atlas, Red Kelpie, Blackfly and Brass Typhoon - which is a hacker collective with close ties to China’s spy command center - the Ministry of State Security (or these hackers would have been shut down years ago). “Double Dragon” stands for their loyal services to the Communist Party of China and the other beastly head for their own private gain by ripping off suckers around the planet outside of China. Thus, the owner of Unisyn (as in United Sin) is a respectable businessman and a world-class criminal entrepreneur – and Vince Tan is counting your local votes! As shown farther along this investigative chief, Tan is in all likelihood a veteran CIA agent.
Here again is a first-hand look at a controversial figure connected with the CIA whose rigged ballot machines could throw the U.S. presidential elections in favor of fellow Chinese-paid lackeys on this side of the Pacific aka the Kamala-Cartel-Democrat cabal. In my usual on-the-ground style - a first-hand view which hopefully provides you with a “feel” for the territory and its players – is based on personal experience in Malaysia. Before taking the plunge, let me assure you that gambling mogul Vincent Tan, who helped bail-out Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad from the money-losing national Sports Toto lottery, is on the opposite side in politics versus the free-spending Jho Low, the short fat Malaysian creep who implicated Leonardo DiCaprio and other Hollywood riffraff at LA and Vegas discos while shoveling secret fund transfers to the Sands Vegas casino. JL is a crony of Malaysian PM Najib Razak, who had a huge falling-out with Mahathir. As everywhere else in the world, squirming crooks crawl inside the worm-holes of every political party in need of campaign funds on this sad planet – and Kamala’s Democrats are just the latest homeless dope-heads in need of small change and fentanyl along with a quick abortion after last week’s orgy arranged by the likes of Diddly Combs.
Above the Monorail
Tycoon Tan is a hard man to reach, hidden somewhere atop his 48-floor Berjaya Group Tower, that is 666 feet tall and the world’s tenth-largest in floor space. The open lobby (used for trade shows and other public events) is directly connected by a sky-walk to the KL monorail’s Bukit Bintan station, which on the opposite side of the elevated track unloads passengers onto the path to the shopping and entertainment district of the same district name (it translates as Star Hill in a rather flat city). That’s where a visitor or media sojourner like myself can find a wide range of hotels, the vital Starhill tech mall for a rush print job or to replace a computer plug lost at a previous stopover, a cup of Americano or mocha sipped on a comfortable armchair, discos to pick up vivacious ladies from all parts of the universe, great Iranian barbecue-grilled lamb or an average evening’s cheapo dinner of chose-it-yourself fresh veg and seafood to eat at a street-corner folding table with a beer. Although certainly no paradise, KL beats NYC or LA - at least for a footloose bachelor chasing down the facts of why an airliner can disappear mid-flight - because even the cheaper rooms all have excellent online connections and working telephones at no added cost.
Although I attended conferences and gave lectures at various venues in KL on the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines 370 over the South China Sea. It was electronically hijacked midair to fly by night to Diego Garcia island’s airfield, used by the Brit and Yank militaries - and Israeli IDF - and then proceeded at midnight up the Red Sea to an underground pad in southern Israel), Vincent Tan never appeared at those conferences despite the eager attendance of the entire VIP list of Malaysian notables. He kept a low profile due to the risk of being vociferously accosted by outraged gamblers and thugs with competing gangland factions as for example fat-boy Jho Low’s crowd, various Macanese (from Macao) gambling rings and even the occasional hitman from Vegas. There’s another reason for Tan’s and it’s called the CIA, his former employer which has a politicized yearning to rig every election around this troubled world of “free and fair elections”.
As mentioned in my most recent piece, rigging electronic votes is done by the same mechanical engineering principles as tampering with slot machines and roulette wheels. That explains why the Agency’s man in Malaysia Mr. Tan runs parallel tech enterprises - gambling devices and the Unisyn ballot counters - One Sin to cover them all. Presumably the insider beneficiaries - aka the U.S. Democrat Party and its loyalists in the CIA - pay a massive unreported fee for the ballot-count tampering - otherwise why would Tan be in business with them as a favor to his machine suppliers in the People’s Republic of China? Then again, the Agency has the obnoxious habit is that after one turn of the screw, you are married for life. If the Democrats and Chinese Communist Party want to cohabit in the same bed - so what? Other than who’s on top. It’s just business as usual since Malaysians of all political stripes could care the less about the declining influence of the USA in Southeast Asia when the big money is with China.
Spook Hank Greenberg’s Legacy
First a brief outline to get Americans up to speed on why the CIA and State Department put so much weight on keeping Malaysia as a sort of rogue ally of Washington D.C. In the late 1950s, the colonialist British rulers of the Malay Peninsula waged a hard-fought, indeed vicious counterinsurgency against Maoist-inspired Chinese rebels with torture, mass murder and psychological warfare - a ruthless regional conflict which some historians consider the roots of the Vietnam War. As the predecessor of LBJ’s policy of “Vietnamization of the War”, the British Army recognized that only with loyal informants, spies and propagandists could the vast population of ethnic Chinese workers in that plantation economy be eventually sapped of revolutionary ideology. Realizing that another uprising could erupt despite the passage of decades, the CIA took over the reins from the British MI-5 military intelligence service.
The common Westerner strategy was: to keep the conservative Malay majority in political power; to depend on the sizable “hidden Jew” population on constant watch of local troublemakers and foreign visitors (as in Hong Kong); and with the gradual decline of plantation labor get the Chinese youths involved in capitalistic moneymaking rather than wild-eyed revolutionary politics. Vincent Tan was one of the aspiring Chinese to be encouraged with hidden incentives. His first real job was as an insurance-policy salesman for the American International Group. As with many of his local “salesmen” across East Asia, AIG boss Maurice “Hank” Greenberg - the CIA heavy posing as an insurance tycoon - had ulterior motives, in new recruit Tan’s case to keep watch over Mainland Communist Chinese “businessmen” laundering money and investing in businesses aligned with the subversive game plan for China’s foreign espionage service. The duplicity is palpable since Greenberg also plays the other card as a loyal friend of Beijing and donor to various Chinese charities. These sorts of liars play both sides against each other, a typically Jewish stratagem.
Then Nixon’s visit to China followed by the thawing of relations and indeed the USA-PRC global alliance against the Soviet Union’s support for radical nationalists across the Third World, resulted in joint espionage efforts between the two powers, West and East. As an on-the-ground result, the Russians have never had a secure footing in Malaysia before, during and after the Vietnam War. Thus, the mercurial rise of Vincent Tan as a gambling mogul was an inside job, a wink and a smirk between intel agents on all three sides - American, Chinese and Malaysians. As chief of an ever-expanding on-line gaming empire, Tan of course had to pay his dues to those benefactors. Money talks by greasing palms or you walk – back to the palm-oil plantation.
Hank Greenberg, by the way, was a lifelong Democrat who had a significant role as Bill Clinton’s foreign policy adviser on foreign affairs, especially the Asia region. Due to his being Jewish by birth, he could never reconcile Israel with Malaysia’s Islamic nationalism - as proven in spades by the Israeli electronic hijacking of Malaysian air 370 and Israel’s secret payload of highly contagious pathogen-infected frozen human bodies (destined for an emergency landing in Tehran, Iran) aboard Flight 17 out of Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport, shot down over Ukraine. These untoward incidents occurred, by the way, during an unusually bumpy period of U.S.-Malaysian relations due to George Soros’s attempt to devalue the Malaysian currency, which triggered the region-wide Asian Financial Crisis of the late 1990s.
The worsening of relations between the nationalistic PM Mahathir and the crooked lying Clinton admin resulted in a running feud that enabled the aircraft tragedies and forced Jho Low to deliver the goods to Sands casino owner and big fat Jew Sheldon Adelson to calm nerves in Washington. The appeasement of the American Democrats continues to this very moment with Vincent Tan’s submissions to the Clinton-Obama-Harris ultimatum to rig the Unisys ballot machines – sure proof that the Democrats are beholden to the Yiddish Mafia. That means the once great USA has fallen to the level of Sicily - a great place for pizza but otherwise nowhere to reside or pay taxes or ask for favors from neighbors. Given this ugly situation of rigged ballot machines, it’s time to brush up on old-style politics, especially the crisis known as the American Revolution. In God we Trust, and shall go from there to ground level to win back genuine democracy and freedom.
The Other Issue: I do wish campaign managers would let loose the cannon-fire instead of mincing words and evading the real issues. For instance abortions – the core of Democrat campaign rhetoric - are not really about ethics or free choice for women but, in these horrifying times, all about cannibalizing the vital organs of embryonic children as glandular donors to wealthy aging tycoons and gangland bosses overseas in unsound places like Switzerland and at clinics in Mexico - a contemporary twist on vampirism. The support for the childless Kamala comes from doctors, nurses, consultants and businessmen in the horrific trade of human organs from the unborn and recently birthed children. For that alone, not to mention her heinous crimes as exposed in this election-season series, she should be flushed down the tubes. Other than this last-hour addition, I extend my apologies about the rush job on the recent articles about election ballot tampering as the clock winds down to “either or both” - restoration of American values by an undeniable majority of voters or incipient civil war against the cheaters. Whatever the case - or the fix - we shall be ready, willing and able to defend the Constitution from liars, crooks, mobsters, molesters and blood-suckers. America shall triumph - again!
And special thanks to my old friend Tornes for alerting me to Unisyn – One Sin to Rule Them All!.

Mantan PM Najib Razak minta maaf kepada rakyat Malaysia
“Tidak ada hal lain yang bisa saya katakan selain meminta maaf secara terbuka kepada seluruh warga Malaysia,”
Kuala Lumpur (ANTARA) - Datuk Seri Najib Razak meminta maaf secara terbuka kepada rakyat Malaysia terkait dengan kasus 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) yang terjadi semasa dirinya menjabat Perdana Menteri (PM) dan Menteri Keuangan Malaysia.
Permohonan maaf terbuka Najib Razak itu tertuang dalam pernyataan yang dibacakan oleh anaknya, Datuk Mohamad Nizar di Kompleks Mahkamah Kuala Lumpur diikuti daring di Kuala Lumpur, Kamis.
Najib mengatakan selama menjalani hukuman sepanjang 26 bulan terakhir sambil terus mengikuti berbagai perkembangan signifikan terkait kasus 1MDB, setiap hari dirinya merasa sangat tersakiti mengetahui bahwa semua penipuan di perusahaan itu terjadi ketika itu berada di bawah pengawasan dirinya sebagai Menteri Keuangan dan Perdana Menteri.
“Tidak ada hal lain yang bisa saya katakan selain meminta maaf secara terbuka kepada seluruh warga Malaysia,” kata Najib.
Mantan PM Malaysia Najib Razak dijatuhi hukuman penjara 12 tahun dan denda RM210 juta (sekitar Rp750 miliar) atas kasus penyalahgunaan kekuasaan, pencucian uang, dan pelanggaran kepercayaan pidana dalam kasus SRC International yang melibatkan dana sebesar RM42 juta (sekitar Rp149 miliar).
Tetapi Dewan Pengampunan Wilayah Federal pada bulan Februari 2024 lalu menyetujui untuk mengurangi hukuman penjara Najib menjadi enam tahun dan mengurangi denda menjadi RM50 juta (sekitar Rp177,5 miliar).
Saat ini Najib juga sedang menghadapi empat tuduhan di pengadilan terkait penyalahgunaan kekuasaan untuk menerima suap RM2,3 miliar dana 1MDB dan 21 tuduhan pencucian uang dalam jumlah sama.
Najib mengatakan dalam sidang pengadilan baru-baru ini dan putusan bersalah atas kasus yang menimpa para eksekutif PetroSaudi di pengadilan Swiss, serta artikel terbaru yang diterbitkan The Edge, berdasarkan analisis mereka terhadap kasus tersebut serta email internal PetroSaudi, sekali lagi membuktikan bahwa dirinya bukan dalang dan bukan kaki tangan Jho Low untuk menggelapkan dana 1MDB.
Lebih lanjut ia mengatakan, rangkuman artikel terbitan The Edge menyatakan bahwa PetroSaudi dan Jho Low bersekongkol untuk menipu dirinya.
“Saya tidak sadar bahwa PetroSaudi telah mengalihkan dana 1MDB dan saya tidak langsung mengetahui bahwa saya telah menerima uang dari dana yang dikirimkan 1MDB ke PetroSaudi,” ujar Najib.
Meskipun mungkin sulit bagi sebagian orang untuk memahaminya, ia mengatakan telah diberitahu dan sejujurnya percaya pada saat itu bahwa dana yang diterimanya adalah kontribusi politik dari Pemerintah Arab Saudi.
Sebagaimana telah ditetapkan dalam proses pengadilan, memang ada dua sumbangan besar yang dikonfirmasi diterima pada 2010 dari Pemerintah Arab Saudi. Sumbangan tersebut tidak pernah menjadi subjek proses pidana atau perdata, ujar dia.
Ketika kekhawatiran muncul dan berbagai pihak mulai mempertanyakan apa yang terjadi di 1MDB, ia mengatakan seharusnya dirinya mengambil tindakan berbeda.
“Saya telah memerintahkan berbagai investigasi untuk dilakukan tetapi saya cenderung mempercayai penjelasan yang diberikan oleh dewan direksi dan manajemen 1MDB,” kata Najib.
Ia mengatakan ketika dirinya pertama kali curiga terhadap apa yang sebenarnya terjadi di 1MDB, perhatian utamanya adalah upaya memulihkan posisi keuangannya dan risiko yang ditimbulkannya terhadap hubungan diplomatik dan bilateral di tingkat tertinggi.
Najib mengatakan juga sudah pernah dihukum secara politik padahal yang jelas dirinya bukanlah dalang segala penyimpangan internal 1MDB dan bahkan tidak pernah berkolusi dengan Jho Low.
“Jadi, saya tidak boleh menjadi korban dari segi hukum. Saya masih sangat terkejut mengetahui korupsi, tindakan tidak bermoral dan pelanggaran hukum yang terjadi di 1MDB,” ujar Najib, dalam pernyataan yang juga diunggah di akun Facebook-nya.
Najib mengaku sangat menyesal atas apa yang terjadi di SRC International dan 1MDB.
“Namun memikul tanggung jawab secara hukum atas hal-hal yang tidak dilakukan atau secara sadar diketahui, adalah tidak adil bagi dirinya dan saya berharap dan berdoa agar proses keadilan akan menguntungkan saya dan membuktikan bahwa saya tidak bersalah,” kata Najib.
