About 100 government MPs have sent in their asset declaration papers, ahead of the aimed deadline to publish the documents tomorrow.

Law Minister Liew Vui Keong said the remaining 10 percent or so, is not included in the list, as yet.

Some of these MPs, he said, as well as assemblypersons from states like Sabah and Kedah, had couriered their documents to the MACC, with some even confusing the address.

Pakatan Harapan's four component parties currently have 117 seats in the Dewan Rakyat while ally Parti Warisan Sabah has nine.

According to Liew further, Port Dickson MP Anwar Ibrahim and Jeli MP Mustapa Mohamed will both be given an extension of time to make their respective declarations, as they are "newcomers".

Mustapa, a former Umno minister, recently joined Bersatu, and has refused to give up his parliamentary seat, even after quitting from Umno, while Anwar had won the Port Dickson parliamentary by-election earlier this month.

"(Asset declaration) is not too complicated, (one) just has to remember to (fill in details of) their properties, and children aged above 21. We need time to collect data.

"Both Anwar and Mustapa have spoken to the MACC and the GIACC (National Centre for Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption) in my office today, and filled up the form," he told reporters at Parliament today.

'Not my call to publish declarations'

Asked if the MACC will publish the lawmakers' asset declaration documents tomorrow, as planned, Liew said: "I don't know, it's not my call."

The deadline for the publishing has already been extended a few times now.

The asset declaration papers were initially supposed to have been published on Oct 1 but it was later postponed to Oct 15, and again to Nov 1.

According to Liew, Harapan MPs had cooperated well in the exercise.

He explained that the declaration will only concern their assets accrued from the moment they assumed their positions as MPs.

"That will be the day they got sworn in, on July 11. We may review it (the declaration) on a yearly basis."

Liew noted that one should not have reason to worry if they can account for their assets.

"Let's say one suddenly has a property worth RM5 million during his/her five-year term in office, for example. If one can justify it, for instance, like inheritance, or bought from a lottery win, it's fine.

"If one can't justify the source of money, then there will be problems," he said.
