Rulers want 1MDB probe wrapped up, wrongdoers punished




The Conference of Rulers has decreed that the probe into 1MDB be completed as soon as possible and the wrongdoers, if any, be punished.

"The findings of this probe must be reported in full and transparently so the people can be convinced of the government's sincerity that it would never hide the facts and the truth.

"Failure to give an explanation and satisfactory answers may cause a confidence crisis," read the sultans' statement issued by the Keeper of the Rulers' Seal, Syed Danial Syed Ahmad.

"As a result the rakyat believe, either as reality or perception, that it is one of the main reasons which influenced the ringgit's sharp downfall, which has given a negative impact on the country's financial market and economic climate while affecting the world's view of Malaysia" they added.

In the joint statement as reported by Bernama, the Malays Rulers also asked all responsible parties to give their full cooperation so that the purpose of the investigation is fulfilled.

They said if the 1MDB issue is not dealt with intelligently and continues to drag on, it will damage the economy and the people's welfare.

They fear it may even cause public unrest.

The Wall Street Journal previously reported that 1MDB funds had made its way into Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's personal accounts.

Najib, however, denies any wrongdoing or that he had used 1MDB funds for personal gain.
