Who is Dr Shamsul Anwar Sulaiman? He was the managing director of Ihsan Perdana, a shelf company. The funny thing was despite Dr Shamsul being one of only two shareholders in Ihsan Perdana, his employment contract was not with Ihsan Perdana. So from the beginning, Ihsan Perdana was a perfect company to launder dirty money as far as 1MDB scandal is concerned.
It has been established in court the money trail from SRC International to subsidiary companies Gandingan Mentari Sdn Bhd and Ihsan Perdana Sdn Bhd. Subsequently, a total of RM42 million from Ihsan Perdana made its way into two personal accounts of Najib between December 2014 and February 2015 – in three tranches of RM27 million, RM5 million, and RM10 million.
In short, former Prime Minister Najib Razak received RM42 million from Ihsan Perdana, which in turn received the money from Gandingan Perdana, which in turned received the fund from SRC International, which in turned got the cash from KWAP Retirement Fund. This means indirectly, the despicable Mr. Najib had stolen money from KWAP.
Najib and his hotshot lawyer Shafee Abdullah can argue until the cows come home that Ihsan Perdana was set up to undertake the so-called “Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)” programmes or whatever charity works they like to call. But the fact remains money was siphoned from KWAP all the way to Ihsan Perdana before ended in Najib’s personal accounts.
As the 37th witness in the trial of Najib, who faces seven charges involving SRC International Sdn Bhd’s funds totalling RM42 million, it was expected that Dr Shamsul Anwar Sulaiman would sing songs of praise to his former boss. Nevertheless, this 56-year-old medical doctor was perhaps the dumbest managing director on the planet.
The fact that Dr Shamsul was arrested and investigated under Section 17A of the 2009 Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act for receiving bribe during the era where PM Najib walked the corridors of power, already showed how corrupted and dirty he was in conspiring with his big boss in plundering hard-earned money of KWAP.
When Dr Shamsul told the court that he would not have approved money transfers totalling RM42 million from Ihsan Perdana into another bank account if he knew Najib Razak was the recipient, you know this medical doctor was so incompetent and pariah that he should not be consulted at all – even if there is no doctor left in the world. At best, he’s a snake oil salesman, At worst, he’s a retarded MD.
How exactly could a highly educated medical doctor like Dr Shamsul blindly transferred RM42 million belonging to Ihsan Perdana, a company he was entrusted with, to another account without knowing the identity of the recipient? He talked as if he was the janitor, not managing director of the company. It would be a different matter if he was just a kindergarten graduate.
Comically, Dr Shamsul also said he did not know who sent RM50 million – RM40 million on Dec 24, 2014, RM5 million on Feb 5, 2015 and RM5 million on Feb 6, 2015 – into Ihsan Perdana accounts. The MD claimed he only found out the source of the money after reading an article published by the Wall Street Journal, without which he would have remained “as blur as a sotong”.
But the most hilarious part arrived on Wednesday (May 29) when the same witness revealed something absolutely unbelievable in the High Court. Dr Shamsul revealed that Najib Razak was “shocked and upset” when he told the then-prime minister that millions had been banked into his personal bank accounts. The MD told the court how Najib expressed his sadness in 2015.
Apparently, Dr Shamsul was detained for 5 days by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and had his statement recorded about money belonging to 1MDB (1Malaysia Development Corporation) was funnelled to SRC International and Ihsan Perdana. He was picked up at “The Curve” shopping mall on July 22, 2015.
Upon his release, Dr Shamsul went to meet Najib at his (PM Najib) residence in Langgak Duta and informed the PM about what had happened. Saying Najib was genuinely taken aback, the managing director of Ihsan Perdana told the court – “He was shocked that someone had been putting money into his accounts. He did not know who it was. He was upset.”
However, for some extraordinary and unnatural reasons, Dr Shamsul admits that the so-called “shocked and upset” Najib did not instruct him to lodge a report either with the police or the MACC pertaining to the fund transfer transactions – suggesting that either Najib was pretending to be shocked or the crook was genuinely upset because the MACC had discovered the money trail.
Yes, like cases linked to paranormal X-Files, Najib was upset in July 2015 but had happily spent the money for his wife, Rosmah Mansor, shopping spree some “7 months earlier” in Hawaii. Earlier in the trial, A.G. Tommy Thomas told the court how Najib’s credit card was charged US$130,625 (about RM533,158) for expenses made at a Chanel store in Honolulu, Hawaii in December 2014.
Prior to Rosmah’s shopping orgy and Najib’s golfing trip with former U.S. President Barack Obama, who was on vacation on the same Hawaiian island on Christmas Eve in 2014, it was also revealed that Najib’s Platinum Mastercard and Platinum Visa issued by AmBank had been overdrawn thanks to a RM3,320,670.65 purchase of jewellery in September 2014.
All those credit card expenses were paid with the RM42 million transferred from Ihsan Perdana into Najib’s personal bank account. Of course, Najib wrote more than a dozen cheques using the same fund in 2015, including for renovation work at his private residence in No. 11, Jalan Langgak Duta and in Pekan, Pahang.
The most jaw-dropping moment was when defence attorney Shafee celebrated the testimony of Dr Shamsul. Najib’s lawyer actually believes his client has been proven innocent after the “shocked and upset” drama. In the future, all crooks accused of corruption or money laundering can be freed by producing a witness to say they were shocked and upset.
Still, the defence and Dr Shamsul probably had forgotten that despite Najib’s shock and upset little drama, they cannot explain why the prime minister had to abruptly sack (former) Attorney General Abdul Gani Patail on July 27, 2015. It’s absolutely unbelievable that on the same day, or 1 day in between, Dr Shamsul was released and went to meet Najib only to see the PM in shocking condition, but was able to fire A.G. Gani anyway.
After the sacking of A.G. Gani Patail, retired judge Mohamed Apandi Ali, who happened to be an UMNO cheerleader, was appointed as the new Attorney General. Mr. Apandi would proceed to disband the special task force which was investigating the US$681 million (RM2.6 billion) found deposited into Prime Minister Najib Razak’s personal bank accounts and state-owned SRC International Sdn Bhd.
If Najib was innocent and indeed was not aware of the arrival of RM42 million in his bank account, why did he need to terminate A.G. Gani, while he was preparing to press charges against PM Najib? Yes, it appeared a lot of things happened in the month of July 2015. That included the sacking of Deputy PM Muhyiddin Yassin and UMNO vice president Shafie Apdal.
Despite drama queen Najib puts on his best act, he could not explain why the need to harass the police’s investigation on 1MDB – forcing the replacement of Special Branch Chief Akhil Bulat on July 28, 2015 (a week before his contract expires) and the transfer of his deputy Abdul Hamid Bador from Bukit Aman to the Prime Minister’s Department in August 2015.
In August 2015, about a month after Najib Razak was infected with the “shock and upset” disease, his newly appointed deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi declared that he had met the wealthy Arab family who had donated the US$681 million (RM2.6 billion) that was channelled into Najib Razak’s personal account.
Widely reported by foreign news, Mr. Zahid claimed the “king and prince”, whom he did not name, had donated the money because of Malaysia’s commitment in fighting terrorism, and being a moderate Muslim country with a plural society. He also claimed that the Arab family was impressed by how Malaysia, with its plural society, still managed to remain moderate without sidelining any other religions.
Zahid, who was then vice-president of UMNO, proudly told all and sundry at a meeting with Kepong UMNO division that the donors were “Arab king and prince”, and that the royal family had decided to make the huge donation due to Najib’s anti-Jewish stance. He also said the donors wanted to keep UMNO and the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition in power.
More importantly, Mr. Zahid said he saw with his own eyes the cheque made under his boss Najib’s name – “I saw the documents myself – the original documents, not photostated ones, and I also saw the money trail. I obtained the information accurately and did not add or minus the facts. The conspiracy to topple the government would take place if not stopped.”
In fact, on August 1, 2015, while addressing UMNO delegates in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan, Najib demanded that “white people” (in reference to Clare Rewcastle-Brown of Sarawak Report, the London-based whistleblower site) stay out of Malaysia’s internal affairs and stressed that he valued loyalty above all, and not smart people. Why was he so offended if he was innocent?
As a conclusion, if the serial liar Najib was genuinely shocked and upset that someone had been depositing money into his accounts, why did he refuse to lodge a police report in the first place? Why did he spend the money anyway with his wife in Hawaii and even went berserk – sacking everyone who questioned the source of the money? Najib and his hotshot lawyer must think all the people are stupid.
