IPOH: The chief of Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) has called on the parties involved to name the individual allegedly linked to a RM9.5mil transaction.
Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim said the disclosure should be made openly.
"Just say who it is. Don't keep dropping names or using initials. What is this, a movie teaser?" he said at a press conference after officiating a community programme on Saturday (March 28).
He added that such actions are likely driven by desperation and political agendas.
"People who do this are trying to divert attention from our ongoing efforts to fight corruption, abuse of power, leakages and other issues. So there is no need to be vague or to hide behind unclear statements just name the person," he said.
Kamil also challenged those making the allegations to be direct, particularly if they are claiming that a Member of Parliament from PKR is involved.
"If you say there is an MP from Keadilan, I dare you name him. Don't hide behind vague terms or 'teasers' like this. That does not help," he said.
The allegation surfaced after Chin, also known as Chin Boon Loong, produced a 40-page document detailing a timeline of events. He claimed a Pakatan MP asked for RM10mil to resolve the issue, though he only managed to provide RM9.5mil initially.
He mentioned several figures, including "Mr R," but did not reveal the actual identity of the individual.
On a separate matter, he said the upcoming meeting with Opposition leaders should have taken place earlier.
"Such engagement should have taken place earlier. We have no problem with criticism. The government is not perfect, but criticism must be accompanied by solutions and proposals. If it only involves accusations that are far from facts and reality, then we oppose that," he said.
He added that the Prime Minister has adopted a more open and inclusive approach in addressing global challenges.
"When a country is facing a global crisis, it is not appropriate for only government leaders to be involved. All parties, including the Opposition, should sit together, be briefed on the actual situation, and exchange ideas and solutions," he said.
Kamil said any useful proposals from such discussions could be considered by the government and added there should be no reason for political leaders to decline participation in the dialogue.
