Ahmad Husni: Najib’s approval needed for 1MDB undertakings


PETALING JAYA: The Prime Minister represents the Government, which is why his written approval is needed for any financial deals undertaken by 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).

“1MDB is government owned. So, in this context, it means that the Prime Minister represents the government. That’s the concept,” Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah (pic) said in a Wednesday 9pm interview on Radio Televisyen Malaysia’s (RTM) Dialog programme.
