Members of Parliament from across the political spectrum have called for a transparent investigation into the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) following its presentation in Parliament. Over 30 MPs participated in the debate, with government backbenchers, led by Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa, requesting clarification on TH's leadership's role in investment negotiations during 2014-2020.
Dr Zaliha also urged the government to release a comprehensive report on the 25 recommendations made by the RCI to rebuild depositor confidence in TH. The government claimed that 75% of the recommendations had been implemented by the previous month.
Bentong MP Young Syefura Othman emphasized the need for a clear timeline for implementing the remaining recommendations and information on the authorities responsible for the reforms. Bukit Bendera MP Syerleena Abdul Rashid called for the prosecution of those identified in the report as responsible for mismanagement and abuse of power, regardless of their political background.
Port Dickson MP Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun advocated for an end to the practice of granting political loyalty in TH and for competent individuals to lead the institution. On the opposition side, Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman proposed a multi-agency task force and forensic audit into the 14 failed investments identified by the RCI.
Former Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin echoed this, urging the independent forensic audit to be completed within a year.
