PARLIAMENT | Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim today submitted a motion to discuss the disclosure of corruption, abuse of power and institutional malpractice, especially on Bank Negara in relation to the 1MDB scandal.

Anwar said on Facebook that the motion was submitted to Dewan Rakyat speaker Azhar Azizan Harun following the statement by Goldman Sachs Group Inc’s former Southeast Asia chairperson Tim Leissner in the 1MDB trial in the United States.

The Port Dickson MP added that the motion was submitted in accordance with Dewan Rakyat Standing Order 18(1).

Azhar confirmed being notified about the motion.

“My office has received the notification of the motion... I have yet to decide (whether to accept or reject it),” he told Bernama briefly.

The opening of the first meeting of the Fifth Session of the 14th Parliament was graced by Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah earlier today and the Dewan Rakyat meeting will begin tomorrow.
