1MDB is government’s top priority, says Tommy Thomas

PUTRAJAYA, June 6 — Newly appointed Attorney General (AG) Tommy Thomas has outlined three main priorities set ahead of him, the first being investigations surrounding the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
“The government’s first and immediate priority is all matters pertaining to 1MDB.
“I have to study the papers in that scandal, and we shall institute criminal and civil proceedings in our courts against the alleged wrongdoers,” he said when met at the Attorney General’s Chambers today.
Thomas detailed the second in the list of priorities would be to repeal oppressive laws in the country.
“The prime minister has already announced the end of GST and anti-fake news (Act), but the list of such laws is pretty long and the AG chambers have to take steps to repeal them, either in whole or in part on an urgent basis,” he said.
The third main issue the AG would be probing are international contracts and obligations undertaken by the previous government.
“We have to ascertain if they (contracts) are lopsided against the interest of Malaysia,” he said.
