ALOR STAR: Your days are numbered.
This was the message delivered by Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today to those from the previous administration who had broken the law with impunity.
Dr Mahathir said that there was so much rot in the government, brought on by his predecessor and one-time protégé Datuk Seri Najib Razak, that everyone under him “became a thief.”
“When Najib became a thief, everyone under him became a thief.
“Government officers made RM200,000 a month. Where did (the money) come from? It was all stolen money.
“(And) some government officers were given RM300 million for projects – but pocketed RM100 million.
“Those who (committed these crimes) will have their comeuppance. Malaysia has its laws,” said the Bersatu chairman at the Jelajah Malaysia Baru event here.
Also in attendance was Deputy Prime Minister and outgoing PKR president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail; Defence Minister and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu; and Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir. © New Straits Times Press (M) Bh
