Abdullah denies attempted bribe in Aussie report

The former prime minister says there is no truth in the allegation reported in The Age Newspaper.

KUALA LUMPUR: Abdullah Ahmad Badawi today denied allegation of an attempted bribe when he was the prime minister and finance minister in 2003 as reported by an Australian newspaper.

“There is no truth whatsoever in the allegation as I cannot possibly remember of anyone approaching me with any offer,” he said, according to a Bernama report.

“If indeed there was any, I would have unhesitatingly lodged an immediate report to the regulatory authorities including he police for follow-up action,” Abdullah said in a statement here today.

Meanwhile, The Age Newspaper reported today that the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) banknote firms are suspected of attempting to bribe Abdullah in order to get his help to win a A$31 million currency contract.

According to the report, the Australian federal police have gathered information about attempts to bribe Abdullah by Securency and Note Printing Australia, which are respectively half and fully owned and overseen by the RBA.

The report stated Abdullah is believed to have been involved in approving the contract won by the RBA firms to supply Malaysia with its polymer five ringgit note, which began circulating in 2004.
