PETALING JAYA: Even before the launch of the now-grounded carrier MYAirline, companies linked to its co-founder were mired in controversies, many involving financial discrepancies.

Just two months before the low-cost airline started operations in January this year, a company owned by Datuk Allan Goh Hwan Hua and his wife Datin Neow Ean Lee was reprimanded by Bank Negara Malaysia and fined RM50mil for illegal deposit-taking.
