SHAH ALAM (Bernama): The High Court was told that Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic) was just following the orders of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, to extend the contract of Ultra Kirana Sdn Bhd (UKSB) as the sole operator of the Foreign Visa System (VLN) to Malaysia in China.

Former Home Ministry deputy secretary-general (Policy and Control) Datuk Suriani Ahmad said that this was based on minutes jotted down by Najib, dated May 23, 2013, sent to Ahmad Zahid, stating “projek ini perlu diteruskan” (the project needs to be continued).
