Khalid rejects 'dead horse' jibe over Tabung Haji RCI
KOTA BARU: Amanah has dismissed a political leader’s claim that the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into Lembaga Tabung Haji was merely “flogging a dead horse”, saying the issues raised remain relevant and require action.
Kota Baru: Amanah has dismissed a political leader's assertion that the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into Lembaga Tabung Haji was akin to flogging a dead horse. Communications director Khalid Abdul Samad emphasized that the RCI's findings remain pertinent and warrant action, as they uncovered alleged irregularities, corruption, and abuse of power.
The political figure questioned the purpose of scrutinizing a horse that is already deceased, but Khalid argued that the issues are far from resolved. He stressed that exposing and addressing wrongdoing is crucial for maintaining good governance and preventing power abuse from becoming entrenched in politics. Khalid highlighted the TH's financial losses due to the RCI's revelations and urged the Attorney-General to review the report and prosecute the guilty parties.
He warned that allowing abuse of power to persist would ultimately embed a culture of wrongdoing in politics.
