Saya tertarik dengan fakta yang ditimbulkan di mahkamah yang memaklumkan bahawa anak Taib Mahmud memiliki wang tunai sebanyak RM 9 Juta. Agak-agaknya sekiranya Bekir bukan anak Taib Mahmud, mampukah dia memiliki wang tunai sebanyak itu? Maklumat inipun tidak cukup kuat untuk mendakwa Taib Mahmud?

 

 

Anak lelaki ketua menteri Sarawak, Datuk Seri Mahmud Abu Bekir Taib memiliki lebih sembilan juta ringgit dalam bentuk wang tunai dan akaun unit amanah, demikian Mahkamah Tinggi Syariah Kuala Lumpur diberitahu hari ini.

 

Jumlah ini termasuk RM4.4 juta dalam satu akaun semasa CIMB, RM3 juta simpanan tetap dengan bank yang sama, dan RM1.3 juta dalam KWSP dan lebih RM500,000 dalam akaun unit amanah ASN dan ASB. Ia didedahkan di hadapan Hakim Mahkamah Tinggi Syariah, Datuk Mohamad Abdullah oleh saksi-saksi yang dipanggil oleh plaintif, bekas isteri Bekir, Shahnaz Abdul Majid, yang menyamannya untuk harta sepencarian semasa perkahwinan mereka.

 

Saksi pertama hari ini, ketua pasukan Unit Resolusi Pelanggan CIMB, Sia Kwai Buay, memberitahu mahkamah bahawa Bekir mempunyai RM4,401,987.45 dalam akaun semasa, serta RM3,008,663.10 dalam akaun deposit tetap yang telah diambil balik dan kemudiannya diagih ke dalam tiga deposit tetap yang lain.

Kemudian, saksi kedua yang dipanggil, Anizah Jaafar, seorang penolong pengurus dari Jabatan Caruman Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja (KWSP), memberitahu mahkamah bahawa akaun KWSP Bekir adalah kira-kira RM1,367,584.66. Katanya, Bekir memiliki akaun KWSP sejak tahun 1992 dan menerima sumbangan sebagai seorang pekerja dari pelbagai syarikat, yang paling terkini ialah caruman bulanan sebanyak RM4,600 daripada Cahya Mata Sarawak Berhad dan RM9,200 daripada Titanium Project Management Sdn Bhd dari tahun 2011 hingga sekarang. Bagaimanapun, katanya, defendan telah mengeluarkan RM158,312 pada tahun 1998 dan RM1,874,331 pada tahun 2011.

 

Manakala saksi ketiga, iaitu Bazit Othman, pengurus Jabatan Perhubungan Agen dan Pelanggan ASNB, pula memberitahu mahkamah bahawa Bekir mempunyai RM389,237.83 dalam akaun ASB dan 149,888.17 unit dalam akaun ASN yang, jika dijual pada nilai terakhir anggaran saham ASN, akan berjumlah RM131,901,59. Semua saksi datang dengan kenyataan pengesahan daripada pelbagai organisasi mereka untuk menyokong keterangan masing-masing.

Bruno Manser Fund to launch international campaign against Sarawak timber corruption

Campaign focus on Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud - Corruption identified as one of the main drivers of Borneo deforestation

The Bruno Manser Fund is about to launch an international campaign against the blatant corruption and abuse of public funds by Abdul Taib Mahmud, Chief Minister of the Malaysian state of Sarawak. A campaign website, www.stop-timber-corruption.org, will go online on Monday, 21 February, and will be regularly updated and equipped with features for an interactive campaign with public participation.

Taib, one of South East Asia's longest-serving politicians, has been in office since 1981 and is planning to celebrate his 30th anniversary in power on 26 March 2011. The 75-year old kleptocrat will stand as an incumbent for another five-year term of office in the upcoming Sarawak state elections, which are due to be held before July.

Taib has abused his public office to a frightening extent and has managed to convert the state of Sarawak into his family's private estate. He simultaneously holds the offices of Chief Minister, and Finance Minister, as well as that of State Planning and Resources Minister, which gives him enormous political power. In addition, Malaysia's “Barisan Nasional” coalition, which forms the federal government, is dependent on Taib's support to remain in power. Sarawak's largest private company, its electricity supply, large-scale logging interests and the control of log exports are also concentrated in the hands of the Taib family.

Since 1983, Taib and his immediate family members have started to transfer considerable parts of their ill-gotten assets overseas. The Bruno Manser Fund has established a black list with 49 Taib companies in eight countries worth hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars. The list will be published next week, and the authorities of these countries will be asked to freeze all Taib assets and to launch criminal investigations against the Taib family.

In Sarawak, corruption has proved to be one of the main drivers of deforestation. While most of the state's forests have been logged or converted into plantations over the last three decades, Sarawak's indigenous communities have seen little, if any, benefit from Taib's so-called politics of development. Poverty, illiteracy and a lack of basic infrastructure are omnipresent in rural Sarawak.

Sarawak's numerous indigenous communities, and particularly the Penan, have struggled since the 1980s against destructive logging and have fought for their land rights but, in most cases, they have been outmanoeuvred and cheated by Taib and his cronies.
