  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR: The Tabung Haji (TH) institution's reform efforts are yielding positive results, as evidenced by improved investment performance and profit distribution. The distribution rate has increased to 3.5 per cent for the financial year of 2025, according to Putra Business School MBA Programme director Ahmed Razman Abdul Latiff. This comes after the implementation of recommendations from the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on TH's management and operations over the period of 2014 to 2020. During a Bernama TV programme, Latiff highlighted that TH has recorded a record-high return on investment, the highest number of depositors, and the highest profit distribution in the past eight years, all of which are strong indicators of the institution's full recovery and the safety of depositors' savings. Latiff assured that TH's management process is based on Shariah principles, transparency, and accountability, with depositors' interests being the top priority. The Dewan Rakyat will hold a special sitting on August 11, 2026, to discuss the RCI's 211-page report on the findings of the investigation.",
