PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli says he expects to be charged with breach of trust or some other crime in the near future.
The former economy minister said he had been asked to be at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Putrajaya on Monday (May 4) to give a statement.
He added this was in relation to an investigation into the government's joint venture with global chip giant, ARM Holdings.
He said the case has been under scrutiny by the MACC since February.
"I expect, after my statements are taken next week, I may be charged with breach of trust on the grounds of giving false information, or causing the Cabinet to sign in haste," he said in a post on X on Friday (May 1),
He said he had made necessary arrangements with his team of lawyers.
Rafizi said any potential trial could be "long and interesting", speculating that many of the country's top leaders would be called as witnesses.
He also noted that the joint venture with ARM continues till today, with the government touting this as a success story.
He said his case was another reminder to other politicians and government officials in Malaysia not to follow his actions.
"Don't be like Rafizi – if you disagree with something, just sit quietly," he said, adding that doing otherwise would invite prosecution.
Rafizi said he would comment on the investigation in his next podcast.
