No orders to halt Zetrix AI, Felda probes, says Anwar
Prime minister says investigations into Zetrix AI, Felda and Tabung Haji are ongoing, despite delays in some cases.
During a question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated that investigations into Zetrix AI and Felda are being conducted by enforcement agencies in a transparent manner. The prime minister emphasized that no order has been issued to halt or postpone these investigations, noting that delays do not indicate any government protection.
When questioned about the progress of these cases, Anwar explained that the road transport department reported Zetrix AI to the police while the Securities Commission Malaysia initiated its own investigation. For Felda, a white paper was presented in 2019, and formal action only began following the change in government in 2022. The investigation process for Felda took nearly a year due to multiple referrals to the Attorney-General's Chambers for further review.
Anwar acknowledged that delays can occur but stressed that they are preferable to inaction. Regarding Tabung Haji (TH), the prime minister explained that the fund's issues were also raised in Cabinet, but the management requested a deferral until recovery efforts were underway. Despite this, the investigation continued as authorized by the government.
