Is this how the Barisan Nasional government uses the rakyat’s money? By buying luxury apartments for personal use? It looks like the NFC is not the only case of such abuse of power. KDEB appears to have done the same. And why has MB Khalid kept quiet?
THE CORRIDORS OF POWER
Raja Petra Kamarudin
In 2007, Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Bhd (KDEB) bought two units of luxury apartments in Mecca for a total sum of RM9 million. What is odd about this purchase is that the two units were bought under the name of the then Menteri Besar of Selangor, Khir Toyo, and not under the name of KDEB, even though the purchase price was paid by KDEB and not by Khir Toyo.
What this Javanese MB did not know back in 2007 is that his government was about to be kicked out of office. In fact, he was even so bold as to promise Umno that Selangor would see ‘Zero Opposition’. Bad luck for him. It was more like ‘Umno Becomes Opposition’.
When Pakatan Rakyat took over Selangor in March 2008, they instructed the then KDEB President, Dato Karim Munisar, to transfer the units over to KDEB. For three bloody years, Dato Karim and the Manager of KDEB’s Legal Department, Puan Maziyah, gave so many excuses as to why they are not able to transfer the properties -- such as a foreign company cannot own properties in Mecca, that it is easier to transfer them after selling them to a third party, that the annual maintenance charges have not been paid, hence the developer will not transfer them, and so on.
Only after Dato Karim was replaced with the current President, Encik Suhaimi, and Raja Idris Kamarudin was added to the Board of KDEB, did things start to move. Nevertheless, even after a year, Puan Maziyah still dragged her feet and refused to complete the transfer.
A few weeks ago, Puan Maziyah was removed and almost immediately the transfer of the properties to KDEB were perfected.
It has now been discovered that the properties could have been registered under KDEB’s name from the very start, as foreign companies can own properties in Mecca, as long as they are meant for personal use and not for rental.
During those five years that the properties were under the name of Khir Toyo, KDEB did not see a single sen in rental, not even during the last fasting month season when the units were fully occupied. The rental went to Khir Toyo, the registered owner of the property.
Why were these two units bought at a price of RM9 million and who has been using them over the last five years? More importantly, who has been collecting the rentals over those five years?
Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim, the Chairman of KDEB, should launch an investigation on all those involved in the purchase of these units five years ago and report the matter to the MACC.

If I were to reveal abuses of power in Selangor under the Pakatan Rakyat government, they will foam at the mouth and scream that I am targeting the opposition, that I am unfair to the opposition, that I am trying to bring down Pakatan Rakyat, that I am an Umno agent, that I have turned, that I have been bought, and all that bullshit.
Now I am revealing abuses of power by the Umno government back in 2007, before the opposition took over Selangor. And I am revealing that over the last four years Pakatan Rakyat kept quiet and did not reveal what was going on.
So, what do you want me to now say? That this is all Umno’s fault? Barisan Nasional is to be blamed? This all happened under the previous government?
If I did not expose this would we all know about it? Would they have told us?
Yes, these are the sorts of transactions that are being uncovered by KDEB. No doubt, Pakatan Rakyat is not to be blamed since it happened in 2007. No doubt, this was a crime perpetuated by the previous government.
I don’t care whether this was done by the previous government or the current government. A crime is a crime. And now the shit is floating to the top. When are we going to see the shit hit the fan?
Now we know why Umno Selangor is foaming at the mouth and wants Raja Idris to be removed. They are scared that while Raja Petra Kamarudin whacks from the outside, Raja Idris Kamarudin is whacking from the inside.
Let the crooks, scumbags and slime balls be warned. We are on your case and your excesses and transgressions are going to be revealed. And we don’t care a damn whether it is Umno, MCA, PKR, or whoever. You cross the line and we will nail your balls to the wall.
And if you don’t like it then go meet His Highness the Sultan and complain to His Highness. Go ask His Highness the Sultan to demand that the MB sack Raja Idris. Go ask the Sultan to demand that the government extradite me from the UK and bring me back to Malaysia and stuff me into Kamunting.
Until that happens, expect more balls to get nailed to the wall.
