PETALING JAYA: While news of Malaysia’s “richest” MPs made headlines, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) asset declaration list also shows those who are at the bottom of the pile.

With a monthly income of RM22,412.64, Bentong MP Wong Tack (pic) is ranked the lowest.


This is according to the MACC website as of yesterday.

The public asset declaration list also shows that the value of Wong’s assets is “zero”.

She has a monthly income of RM24,300, with total assets va­­lued at RM643,178.06.

In terms of assets, Pasir Gudang MP Hassan Abdul Karim has one of the lowest, valued at only RM29,000.

Lanang MP Alice Lau and Titi­wangsa MP Datuk Seri Rina Ha­­run are among those with the lowest value of assets, amounting to RM70,000 and RM72,000 res­pectively.

In the meantime, Jerlun MP Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir is now leading the list of the “richest” MPs in terms of monthly income.

Raking in RM105,641.76, the Kedah Mentri Besar edged out Teluk Intan MP Nga Kor Ming who earns RM101,160 and Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng who brings in RM86,464.
