Event Summary

Political Secretary to the Finance Minister, Kamil Munim, stated that calls for a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into share ownership allegations involving Malaysia — Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki must be based on solid evidence, not speculation. He emphasized that existing investigative processes, including a special investigation committee chaired by Attorney General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar, should be allowed to run their course. The inquiry was ordered following a report by Bloomberg News, indicating the government's readiness to investigate responsibly. The primary aim is to ensure justice is based on facts, not perception or political pressure, with an RCI to be pursued later if evidence warrants it.
