Anwar arah siasat potensi ketidakaturan dalam anak syarikat Khazanah

Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim has directed a probe into potential financial irregularities within a Khazanah Nasional Bhd subsidiary, emphasizing that any governance lapses must be investigated regardless of the individual involved. The matter emerged after Khazanah initiated an internal review of past operations. Anwar urged the company to unveil its complete history, revealing the investigation's origins within Khazanah itself, established since 2012.

The Prime Minister stated that regardless of the current chairman's status, a probe would proceed if there were governance lapses. Khazanah announced it would scrutinize related aspects to ensure thoroughness, while the company also highlighted potential legacy issues concerning Xeraya Capital, a wholly-owned subsidiary founded in 2012 that manages Khazanah's investments in the life sciences sector.

In July 2026, the Xeraya Oversight Board identified irregularities in historical financial records requiring further review, according to the statement. It is not a political move, Anwar asserted, emphasizing that judicial and anti-corruption bodies will determine whether further investigation is necessary. Ultimately, the government will not interfere in the investigation or prosecution decisions, with each agency responsible for its respective duties.
