KUALA LUMPUR: The Sessions Court was told that Ewein Zenith Sdn Bhd (EZCB) managing director Datuk Ewe Swee Kheng was unafraid and comfortable when the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) recorded his statement over Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng's corruption case relating to the construction of the undersea tunnel and paired roads in the state.

MACC's Asst Supt Mohamad Hambia, 29, said that he received instructions from his superior on July 21, 2020 to record a statement from Ewe, 52, and two statements were recorded from the businessman on July 22 and 24, 2020 at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya.
