ACA to question Yong over RM5m payment
malaysianinsider - In a quick turn of events, the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) announced today it will question Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) president Datuk Yong Teck Lee over the payment of RM5 million to his agents from proceeds of the sale of shares from a state-owned company.

The Star newspaper, in a text message news alert, reported that the ACA will question Yong over the allegations by a witness in a Borneo High Court yesterday who claimed the former Sabah chief minister had ordered the payment to his agents in 1996.

Yong is currently chairing his party's supreme council meeting two days after announcing that SAPP lawmakers will initiate or support a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi when Parliament reconvenes next week. The SAPP is part of the 14-member BN coalition that lost its traditional two-thirds majority in the March general election.

A Barisan Nasional supreme council meeting yesterday said it would not take action against the SAPP as it believed Yong was acting out of personal greed.

In the Sabah capital of Kota Kinabalu, former Briskmark Enterprise Sdn Bhd director Datuk Wasli Mohd Said told the High Court that Yong had instructed him that part of the profit from the sale of shares be paid to his selected agents.

He was testifying in the trial of former Land and Cooperative Development Minister Tan Sri Kasitah Gaddam, who is alleged to have used his position as Sabah Land Development Board (SLDB) chairman for financial gain by taking part in the decision to approve the proposed sale of 16.8 million Sapi Plantation shares held by SLDB to Briskmark.... selanjutnya.
