State Paid For Khir's Wife
The Malaysian Inside reported PNSB paid the personnel trip cost to Melbourne for the Khir's wife and she personally give instruction to State Government officers to pick up the cost. Aiyoyo Khir macam mana nie? Orang bagi sedekah daging korban you cakap macam kes jenayah tapi kes isteri you nak masuk mana? State paid for MB's wife to visit son in Melbourne |
By Neville Spykerman SHAH ALAM, March 25 — Permodalan Negri Selangor Berhad (PNSB) chief executive officer Datin Khairiyah Abu Hassan testified before the legislature today that the state subsidiary was 'instructed" to pick up the cost to Melbourne for the wife of former menteri besar Datin Zahrah Kechik to visit their son who was studying there. Khairiyah told the Special Select Committee for Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) that she received the instructions directly from Zahrah and was "told" to accompany her on the three day visit, in 2007. Over RM14,000 was spent to purchase return business class and economy class tickets sometime in December 2007. |
Khairiyah says she remembers travelling in business class with Zahrah but could not explain the discrepancies in the invoices for travel which was provided to the committee. She admitted that the trip was not an official visit and Zahrah used the time to visit her son and to buy souvenirs. Selangor Speaker Teng Chang Khim, who is heading Selcat's probe into the now defunct Wives of Selangor Elected Representatives Charity Organization (Balkis), remarked that the trip may have not been official but the cost was. However Khairiyah said Zahrah paid for the hotel accommodation while in Australia. The startling revelations could not come at a worse time for Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo, who is contesting the Umno Youth chief's in the party's general assembly. |
