Rosmah meets MACC to give second statement

PUTRAJAYA -- Wife of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, arrived at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters here today to give her statement in connection to the investigations into the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case.

This is the second time Rosmah has been summoned by the MACC after she was called there on June 5 in connection to the investigations into the case involving SRC International Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary company of 1MDB.

Dressed in a floral baju kurung and green headscarf, Rosmah arrived at about 9.50 a.m. in a black Proton Perdana without police escort. Tight police security was obvious in the compounds of the MACC building.

She walked swiftly into the MACC building, ignoring the many media personnel who were present.

It is understood that Rosmah will give a statement to MACC officials in the investigation room in the building.

Dozens of local and international media personnel had gathered outside the MACC building as early as 6.30 a.m. today to cover the case, Bernama report.

Yesterday, MACC officials arrived at Rosmah’s home in Jalan Langgak Duta, Taman Duta, in Kuala Lumpur, to hand her a notice to be present at the commission headquarters to give a statement in connection to the case.

According to local press reports, Rosmah was expected to face more than 20 criminal charges, mostly connected to money laundering.

Last Thursday, MACC deputy chief commissioner (operations) Datuk Azam Baki said the agency did not discount the possibility that Rosmah would be charged soon.

Proton SUV open for booking at RM1,000

KUALA LUMPUR -- National car maker, Proton Holdings Bhd, is adopting an alphanumerical naming system for its future models beginning with the X70, its first sport utility vehicle (SUV). Sales and Marketing Vice-President Abdul Rashid Musa said the letter X is synonymous with crossover or SUV vehicles, while the number 70 denoted the size or class of the SUV and would enable Proton to adopt a logical system to add bigger or smaller models in the future. “This is the first time an alphanumerical naming system is used on a Proton model as our research shows it will make it easier to sell in ASEAN and other international markets, as there are no language barriers to overcome,” he told reporters at the preview of the new SUV.
