Malaysian agency warns of scrap metal import changes
An inspection agency based in Malaysia says the nation is ready to require preinspections and to ban lower grades of scrap.
A presentation by a Malaysia-based cargo inspection and certification service obtained by the Brussels-based Bureau of International Recycling (BIR) paints a picture of a nation preparing to enforce a stricter scrap metal import regimen.
According to Selangor, Malaysia-based SIRIM QAS International Sdn. Bhd., that nation’s Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) could require all metal scrap export cargoes to Malaysia to be subject to a preshipment inspection process.
KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court heard that the withdrawal of RM17.9mil from Yayasan Akalbudi funds was a criminal breach of trust because there was no consent from the charity foundation’s board of trustees.
Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) investigating officer Muhammad Fazli Zulkifli, 36, testified yesterday that the withdrawal from the foundation’s Affin Bank account to be transferred into a Maybank account belonging to Messrs Lewis & Co, the foundation’s trustee, was instructed by Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
The 93rd prosecution witness was being re-examined by deputy public prosecutor Sazilee Abdul Khairi during the trial of the former deputy prime minister who is facing corruption, abuse of power and money laundering charges involving millions of ringgit in funds from Yayasan Akalbudi.
