Barry Wain’s book “Malaysian Maverick”

Malaysians must never forget that under former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir's 22 years term, there were monetary losses amounting to over at least hundred of billions of ringgit and this excluded those unaccounted for, and irretrievable.

Opposition politician Syed Husin Ali said, “Petronas has neither been fully transparent nor accountable with how it spends its money, especially in aiding and abetting Tun Mahathir to indulge in unproductive construction of mega projects, to bail out ailing crony companies and corporate figures, and to involve itself in excessive and wasteful spending on celebrations and conferences.”

Mahathir used his position and power to intercept and/or to bail out his children or to give them special benefits and also to his cronies.

In early November 2012, Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd reportedly awarded a RM700 million contract to a Sapura-Kencana Petroleum Bhd wholly owned subsidiary where Mahathir’s son Mokhzani is a vice-chairperson.

Mahathir ever replied in a sarcastic tone when asked during a press conference whether there was conflict of interest in the deal: -

“Yes of course, he (Mokhzani) is given it because I instructed Petronas. Put that in your paper. I presided over everything. I told them, please give to my son and not to anybody else. That’s what I have been doing all the time. When I was the prime minister, everything was given to my children. .."
