“The government will not hesitate to take stern action against any party who leak official government secrets based.

Santiago asked for clarification of the cabinet’s memo on PKFZ which was published on fugitive blogger Raja Petra’s blog Malaysia Today.

He also wanted to know if the posting of the contents breached the law and what follow up action was taken by the government.

“A thorough criminal investigation is being being undertaken by the police to determine the source of the leaked document, whether it was a technical glitch, human error or done bya culprit.

“The government has also appointed a special task force led by the chief secretary to look into the Auditor-General’s report on the PKFZ,” said Hishammuddin.

The leaked documents made its way to Malaysia Today several months back before the Auditor-General’s and the Public Accounts Committee’s (PAC) reports were made public.

The PAC recommended that former Transport Minister Chan Kong Choy and former PKFZ general manager OC Phang be probed by the anti-graft officials for criminal breach of trust.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 2 — The government lodged a police report recently about leaked Cabinet documents on the on-going Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) scandal.

In a written reply to Klang MP Charles Santiago, the home affairs minister stated that the police report was made by the Finance Ministry on Sept 16, 2009, and that the case was still being investigated by the police.

The case has been classified under section 8 of the Official Secrets Act (OSA) where a person can be charged with divulging official government secrets in a wrong manner.

“The government will not hesitate to take strict action against any party which leaks out official government secrets either through government agencies or other means, based on the legal provisions at hand.”

A thorough criminal investigation is under way to determine the source of the leaked document, whether it was a techical glitch, carelessness or a “hidden culprit.”

In lodging a police report, the government is conceding the fact frequently stated by Pakatan Rakyat that the leaked documents are indeed official Cabinet papers on the PKFZ issue.

The government has also announced that it has appointed a special task force led by its Chief Secretary to look into the Auditor-General’s report on the PKFZ.

The leaked Cabinet documents originally surfaced on the online web portal Malaysia Today some months back.

The contents are said to suggest that the Cabinet had been aware of the financial losses faced by PKFZ for some time, and no follow-up action had been taken to remedy the situation.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 1 (Bernama) — The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will investigate the land deal in Kampung Jalan Papan and Kampung Bukit Kerayong, Pandamaran, Klang.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Aziz said there were elements of abuse of power in the land acquisition process from the residents to the developer.

He said representatives from the two villages had lodged a report to the MACC on Sept 2 but until today they had not been informed of its development.

“I will get in touch with MACC deputy chief commissioner Datuk Abu Kassim Mohamed to ensure that action is taken based on the report,” he told reporters after receiving a memorandum from resident committees from the two villages at the parliament lobby here on Tuesday.

The Kampung Jalan Papan land issue emanated in 1997 when six lots of the land in Pandamaran, including in the two villages were acquired by TPPT Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Bank Negara, to revive a stalled housing project.

In 2003, the Klang Municipal Council (MPK) issued a notice to the residents to vacate the land and shift to low-cost flats built by TPPT or other developers besides getting a RM7,000 compensation.

However, most of the villagers were not happy with the deal and counter-proposed to TPPT to build houses costing below RM100,000 for them, arguing that they had occupied the land for the past 70 years and held temporary occupancy permit (TOL) until it was revoked in 1990 without any explanation.

The issue erupted in 2004 when the MPK tore down houses in both villages under the Emergency Ordinance, forcing the two village committees to seek injunctions to stop the demolition and better terms including being given terrace houses.

In 2007, TPPT appointed Melati Ehsan Development Sdn Bhd to develop the project and the company set out to build 107 units of one and half storey terrace houses below RM100,000 but only 51 houses would be allotted to the villagers.

Mohamed Nazri said TPPT had breached an agreement endorsed by the Selangor government by awarding the project to Melati Ehsan, whereas the agreement specified that a Bank Negara subsidiary must not be involved in a profitable venture except for to build houses for the poor.

Mohamed Nazri said he would pursue the matter with Bank Negara governor Tan Sri Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz.

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 30 (Bernama) — The Works Ministry will provide a written answer to every question raised by members of parliament, the Dewan Rakyat was told Monday.

Its Deputy Minister, Datuk Yong Khoon Seng said this was due to inadequate time to answer all questions during the winding-up debate on the ministry’s supply bill.

“I will give written answers to all questions due to lack of time. I expect the winding-up debate to finish at about 10pm. I am tired,” he said.

However, Yong was pestered by opposition members of parliament to reveal the Bukit Antarabangsa landslide report.

“The Cabinet had decided that the report was classified under the Official Secret Act. So I cannot reveal it,” he added.

Deputy Speaker Datuk Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar intervened and stopped Zuraidah Kamaruddin (PKR-Ampang), Charles Anthony Santiago (DAP-Klang), Tony Pua (DAP-Petaling Jaya Utara) and Teo Nie Ching (DAP-Serdang) from harping on the issue.

The opposition members of parliament also questioned the absence of Works Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor.

The sitting resumes tomorrow.
