MACC probes father of DAP rep over alleged graft


Sungai Pinang DAP assemblyman Lim Siew Khim

GEORGE TOWN: The father of Sungai Pinang DAP assemblyman Lim Siew Khim is being investigated by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for allegedly taking bribes from people to help them get low-cost and affordable housing units.  

It is learnt that MACC has called up several people involved after a video clip purportedly showing Lim’s father, Keat Seong, was posted on social media on Sunday explaining to certain individuals how to “cut queue” in the state’s housing schemes by paying RM260 for the application form and some money to “Uncle Lim”.
