Ong: RM10mil loan claim is one of the threats over PKFZ issue
KUALA LUMPUR: Transport Minister Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat has likened the purported RM10mil loan from Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd CEO Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing to one of several “attacks” levelled against him, something he had been talking about of late.
He said not many people believed him when he disclosed that he had received threats and was attacked on all fronts over the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) controversy.
Other developments yesterday were:
- Ong lodges a police report against Tiong for alleged criminal defamatory statement made against him,
- Ong gives Tiong seven days to retract his statement and apologise,
- The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission forms a 30-man task force to probe the PKFZ issue,
- The Public Accounts Committee finds that PKFZ losses could have been avoided if the Port Klang Authority board had adopted a hands-on approach during its development.
