Najib denied RCI is approved

Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has apparently refuted claims that a royal commission of inquiry (RCI) on the alleged citizenship-for-votes scam in Sabah had already been approved.

“We are considering it,” said Najib in a curt reply to a question on whether the RCI would be established after chairing the Umno supreme council meeting last night.

Najib’s response came as a surprise as high-profile Sabah BN leaders had claimed that cabinet had approved the establishment of the RCI on Feb 8.

The Sabah BN leaders had speculated that Najib would officially announce the RCI during his two-day visit to the state last week.

However, he left Sabah after a two-day visit with no  mention of the RCI.

United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organisation (Upko) secretary-general Wilfred Madius Tangau told Malaysiakini yesterday that the RCI was already in the bag and only its terms of reference remained to be ironed out.

According to him, Upko had already submitted its proposals on the terms of reference to de facto law minister Mohd Nazri Abdul Aziz.

No need to invite Pakatan MBs and CMs

Meanwhile, Najib also brushed aside claims that he had acted unprofessionally by failing to involve Pakatan Rakyat-administered states at his meeting with menteris besar and chief ministers.

Najib said that the meeting was for coordinating activities between   federal and state governments, stressing that the get-together was not a constitutional requirement.

However, he said the federal government will invite Pakatan menteris besar and chief ministers for meetings spelled out by the constitution, such as National Land Council meetings.

“They have a lot of meetings and never invite us. We never complain. They will consort among themselves. No problem. We (on the other hand) are doing coordination work,” he said.

Najib was responding to Selangor Menteri Besar Khalid Ibrahim’s claim he had acted unprofessionally by leaving Pakatan-administered states out of the 114th meeting of menteris besar and chief ministers in Putrajaya.

Asked if the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) scandal was raised at the supreme council meeting last night, Najib replied: “We did not discuss it.”

      RCI investigation should be done before the 13th GE. If it takes long time to discuss about RCI, the problem will get worst.

    Musa Aman is a crook CM.
    Sepatutnya jika dia orang asal Sabah dan tidak terlibat pemberian IC kp orang asing PTI di Sabah, maka dia akan suarakan isu ini terus kepada pm Najis!

    Ini Harapkan YB2 KDM yg tiada toli! Guntalou.
    Mana Maksimusial? Pairin Talou? Kurup Penipu? Ellron tiada tontolou? Salleh Kuruak yang Tamaha? Lajim Ukin Katak? Yahya Hussin PATAI? Anifah perompak?

    Semua mereka ini hanya pura2 saja mahu RCI untuk menipu rakyat saja.

    Mereka semua terlibat dalam pendaftaran PATAI sebagai pengundi Fix Deposit di Sabah.

    Mampus kamu! Terkutuklah kamu semua kerana telah menjual Sabah kepada Bugis, Pilak, Pakistan!

      All the PATI and PATAI issues should be resolved before the next general elections is held. The RCI should be one of the factors to focus on before parliament can be dissolved.

    Kementerian Persekutuan telah bersetuju terhadap pembentukan RCI pada 8Februari dan melantik Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz mengetuai skop penyiasatan RCI. Pada 15 Februari sebelum Najib berangkat ke Sabah Nazri telah membentangkan draf kasar rujukan RCI untuk perbincangan. Ia telah dibincangkan tetapi terma rujukan belum muktamad kerana kabinet mahukan input lebih dari parti BN Sabah dan kerajaan negeri.

    surely all Sabahans want to know if the sudden increase in the Sabah population in the last decade is related to the huge number of foreigners who might have entered Sabah either legally or illegally and how they managed to obtain MyKads.

    Perkara ini bukan sahaja berkaitan dengan isu politik tetapi ianya soal sosial, perlembagaan, kebudayaan, keselamatan dan isu-isu demografi yang perlu diselesaikan secara positif tetapi tegas sebelum pilihan raya umum akan datang.
