Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim has called on Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob to call for a Parliament sitting to go over government projects and GLCs.
Anwar (above) said there has been a lack of clarity on the MRT rail project, Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB), MySejahtera, and Sapura Energy which the government must enlighten the public on.
He said the gravity of these projects and companies was akin to 1MDB in the past.
“The government must immediately tackle several big issues including government administration, abuse of power, and decisions involving billions of ringgit that were not tabled transparently to the public,” he said in a statement last night.
He said the Parliament session to debate these issues should last several days.
DNB is the government vehicle in charge of rolling out 5G networking in the country.
Its single wholesale model has been a major point of contention with most major providers resisting enlistment.
Meanwhile, MySejahtera had been embroiled in controversy over the ownership of data and the app after the government engaged in talks with a private firm to manage the app.
As for Sapura, the oil company which is now majority controlled by state-owned Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB), is in dire financial straits.
Anwar is set to debate former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak regarding Sapura.
On MRT, tenders for the third line are set to open in June. - Mkini
