COMMENT | It is utterly preposterous for the MACC chief Azam Baki to dismiss allegations of wrongdoing on the part of the Selangor government to award the transport-related project to Asia Mobility Technologies (Asia Mobiliti).

This is because the firm’s CEO Ramachandran Muniandy is the husband of Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh.

How can the chief of the anti-graft agency dismiss allegations of cronyism or favouritism without even a preliminary investigation?

Sure enough, it was the Selangor government and related federal agencies that awarded the project to Asia Mobiliti and one other company.
