KCJ Engineering initially failed Jana Wibawa’s technical assessment, court told
A finance ministry officer testifies that the firm was assessed following a recommendation by then prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin to appoint the company.
A finance ministry officer testified in the Kuala Lumpur High Court that construction firm KCJ Engineering Sdn Bhd, linked to alleged RM800,000 political donations, had initially failed a Jana Wibawa programme technical assessment. Rosni Yusoff, a government procurement division secretary, described KCJ Engineering being reassessed after receiving a letter from the then-Prime Minister's Office.
The contractor assessment committee meeting concluded in February 2021 that KCJ Engineering had met all criteria required in all three assessments. KCJ Engineering ultimately secured a road construction project under the Jana Wibawa programme.
