Pakatan parliamentarians today called for a public white paper and full disclosure on issues surrounding the Tanjong Pagar KTM land surrendered to Singapore and the petroleum-rich blocks L and M given to Brunei to prove that there is no hanky-panky going on.

The Opposition has attacked the government on its recent decision to give up the KTM land in Tanjung Pagar to Singapore and revelations that the petroleum-rich Blocks L and M were ceded to Brunei by former prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, labelling both actions as being contrary to our national interest.

“We are disappointed with the lacklustre attitude of the federal government in simply giving away our sovereign land and putting commercial profit before anything else," he said. 

"We propose a white paper on the matter and also for the details of the discussions with Singapore and Brunei be declassified and made available to the public.”

NONE Concurring with him, PAS Pokok Sena MP Mahfuz Omar (left) said this is because they believed the decision to surrender Malaysia’s sovereign rights in both cases are the work of traitors.

“The decisions were made by officials who are agents of Singapore and Brunei. This is dangerous as they may rise to higher posts and present an even greater danger to the nation,” he warned.

Their press conference came soon after an argument in the House where Pakatan representatives attacked deputy foreign minister Richard Riot (BN-Serian) over the surrender of Tanjong Pagar and Blocks L and M to neighbouring countries.
