KUALA LUMPUR: The defence ministry has cancelled five procurement tenders for supplies, services and infrastructure projects. The cancellations were to avoid leakages in expenditure, and were in line with a policy of procurement through open tenders.
“Mindef has also taken serious note of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s statement regarding the leakage in expenditure at the Budget 2023 dialogue on Tuesday,” it said in a statement today.
It added that Mindef would not compromise on wrongdoings for personal gain, in terms of leakages and misconduct in procurement and would not hesitate to report any leakage or lack of transparency in the procurement process. - FMT
