PETALING JAYA: Three Malaysian-based non-governmental organisations (NGOs) have lashed out at an Australian-based think tank’s report that they lack transparency and accountability over their funding sources from the United States.
S.M. Mohamed Idris, who is Consumers’ Association of Penang (CAP) and Sahabat Alam Malaysia (SAM) president and also Third World Network (TWN) chairman, condemned a report by the Melbourne-based Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) as “false, mischievous and misleading”.
