I refer to Malaysiakini report Ex-MB slams Selcat for tarnishing his reputation .

Mohd Khir Toyo accused Selcat of tarnishing his image. I do not think so. In the first case Selcat did invite Khir Toyo and his wife to answer or maybe explain himself to the committee. But they chose not to do so.

Now that the truth of abuse of funds and power is revealed by none other than CEO of PNSB,, he cries foul over the inquiry.

Mohd Toyo must know that he was given a chance to vindicate himself at the inquiry but he did not seize the opportunity. He therefore has forfeited his right to rebut.

As claimed by him, if both he and his wife had done nothing wrong, he should not be afraid to face the committee. As the Chinese saying goes, ' Pure gold is not fearful of going through fire'. He should have proven his worth at the inquiry .

Anyway, the more Khir Toyo tries to explain himself the more he exposes himself.

He alleged that the original aim of Selcat was to look into the Balkis fund but had later strayed into PNSB just to damage his image.

In this aspect, Khir Toyo should appreciate the initiative of Selcat to look into PNSB's dealings. I believe the people in Selangor are grateful of Selcat's initiative.

In exposing the abuse of funds in PNSB, a future CEO would be more careful in granting aid to charitable organisations. It is also a lesson to chief ministers and MBs not to treat statutory bodies as their private banks .

In one of the his statements, Khir Toyo claimed that he paid directly to a travel agency for his children's trip and got verification from them that they would not claim payment from the state agency, PNSB.

It boggles my poor mind.

The PNSB official claimed that they had paid for the children's trip and now Khir Toyo claims that he had paid for the same trip too. I would like to assume Khir Toyo's claim is true. As such the said trip has been paid for twice?

Can it be? Definitely not! There would be a big accounting problem for the travel agency if the said trip was paid twice. Faced with two persons claiming too have paid for the same trip ,which is not possible, there are four possibilities that I can draw:

1. Khir Toyo had paid for the trip and PNSB had done it too. The overpayment must have been pocketed by some individual down the line.

2. The money might have been refunded to PNSB and some one in the state agency might have pocketed the money.

3. PNSB had actually not paid for the trip but Khir Toyo did.

4. PNSB had actually paid for the trip and Khir Toyo did not.

Khir Toyo is like a mouse caught in a trap and snapping at everything in order to get out.

Hey, what is there to deny the truth that PNSB paid for your wife's trip when the truth itself was revealed by none other than the CEO of the company.

The allegations did not come from Ah Too, Awang or Muniandy but by the very person helming PNSB.

Khir Toyo made me laugh when he challenged Selcat to report the matter to the MACC.

To do so is like bringing coal to Newcastle. Aiya, Khir Toyo, it would be more realistic if reports be made against some one sacrificing a few cows for the deserving poor because the poor do not deserve such a treat. This is a more serious case.
