On August 26, 2026, a businessman testified in court that he had no ill intentions when he donated RM4.8 million to the Bersatu party five years ago. Datuk Seri Azman Yusoff, 54, the Director of KCJ Engineering Sdn. Bhd., stated that the contribution comprised a personal RM4 million and RM800,000 from his company, used to repay Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin for his assistance in securing the Janawibawa project.
Azman received a Letter of Acceptance (SST) from the Public Works Department for the RM62 million contract to construct a new road between Felda Bukit Jalur and Gemas in Negeri Sembilan. Despite the Covid-19 pandemic halting most projects at the time, Azman expressed his gratitude to Muhyiddin for helping Bumiputera contractors secure projects during the crisis. He acknowledged that his actions were wrong, but viewed them as necessary for the survival of his business.
The businessman also revealed that he had never donated to any other political party. The trial against Muhyiddin Yassin, who faces seven charges related to the Janawibawa Program, is ongoing before Judge Noor Ruwena Md. Nurdin.
