Ng will waive extradition to the United States on Friday during an appearance in a court in Malaysia, according to his lawyer Marc Agnifilo.

KUALA LUMPUR: The former CEO of Yayasan Rakyat 1Malaysia (YR1M) Ung Su Ling told the High Court here that 1MDB, Petronas and Genting Group were the funders of YR1M, which was set up in January 2013.
