Here’s a recap of major headlines yesterday you may have missed.

PAC report: Mismanagement or corruption?

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) report on 1MDB was finally tabled in Parliament with damning findings, including the fact that 1MDB had sacked its auditors for asking too many questions and Putrajaya would need to fork out some RM20 billion if the company fails.

The government was keen to present the report as merely a case of weaknesses in 1MDB's management with Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak saying the findings proved claims of RM42 billion going missing from 1MDB is untrue .

A federal minister said the PAC report highlighted bad management in 1MDB and urged Malaysians to move on.

While 1MDB's RM42 billion did not disappear, the PAC report did highlight that billions was transferred to unauthorised accounts and it is unclear what had happened to the money.

Among this include the diversion of 1MDB's US$700 million to Good Star Limited and the payment US$1.367 billion to Aabar Investments PJS Ltd, whose ownership is unclear – both without the permission of 1MDB's board of directors.

The PAC report was based on the auditor-general's report and it is not known if Malaysians would ever know the full details as the report remains classified under the Official Secrets Act 1972.

However, police said it will scrutinise both the PAC's recommendations and the auditor-general's report to see if there is a need for further action.

While Malaysian authorities are wrangling over whether there is a case, financial regulators in Switzerland called the 1MDB matter a " clear case of corruption ".

1MDB blame game begins

Everyone seems to be blaming everyone following the release of the PAC report, with the committee itself stating that former 1MDB chief executive officer Shahrol Azral Ibrahim Halmi should be held responsible .

Shahrol insisted that he had done no wrong while ex-premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad claimed the former was being made to take the fall for the prime minister.

PAC member Tony Pua said Najib should also be held accountable , but his colleague Tan Seng Giaw said Najib was not involved in 1MDB.

While the PAC report noted that the 1MDB board of directors had instructed for Najib to be briefed about what was happening, it said there were no evidence Najib got the message in writing.

Meanwhile, the 1MDB board of directors have offered to resign over the report but a PKR MP said that wouldn't absolve them.
