KUALA LUMPUR: A total of RM18.91mil has been distributed to 49 non-governmental organisations (NGO), even though the organisations did not fulfil the necessary criteria set by the Unit for Socio-Economic Development of the Indian Community (Sedic), the 2018 Auditor-General's Report states.
"A further audit found that there is no evidence of acknowledgement by the chairman of the Cabinet Committee for Indian Community (CCIC) for all the NGOs, except for certification from the programme's evaluation committee and the prime minister," said the report.
