国防部设特工队查购潜艇丑闻

陈水源
【国会报道】国防部长莫哈末沙布说,该部将成立一支特别工作队来调查各项涉及该部的丑闻,包括购买天蝎级潜水艇丑闻。
他表示,国防部愿意与任何机构配合进行调查,同时也会成立一支特工队来调查该国购买两艘潜水艇的交易。
“国防部已准备和任人可相关的执法单位合作,而部门也将成立一支特工队来调查所有涉及国防部的贪污及管理失当指控,包括购买两艘天蝎级潜水艇的交易。”

莫哈末沙布是于今日,以书面回答升旗山区国会议员黄汉伟的提问时,发表上述谈话。
黄汉伟在提问中,询问国防部是否已发对购买潜水艇丑闻采取行动,尤其是已经有人因为这项交易在法国法庭被提控。 
在2008年的调查发现,大马政府在2002年以50亿令吉购买2艘天蝎型潜水艇,而法国造船公司DCNS及亚洲Thales国际公司则给予5亿7000万令吉的佣金。
这笔佣金是支付给由前首相纳吉亲信阿都拉萨巴京达掌控的Perimekar私人有限公司,而纳吉正是时任国防部长。
目前,已有三名法国人因为这起军购丑闻被控上法庭,而阿都拉萨也受到牵连。

KUALA LUMPUR: The government has spent RM8.43 billion on the National Service Training (PLKN) programme which was started in 2004.
Defence Minister Mohamad Sabu said the bulk of the expense (43%) was on rental of training camps.
"During the 14 years it was implemented, a total of 885,956 youths underwent training and of these, 356,411 former trainees joined the national service voluntary brigade which was set up to allow them to continue serving society," he said during the Ask-The-Minister session in the Dewan Rakyat today.
He was replying to a question from Wong Hon Wai (DAP-Bukit Bendera) who asked for the total amount of money spent on the programme and its outcome.
Meanwhile, Mohamad said although the Pakatan Harapan manifesto during the 14th General Election stated that the programme would be abolished, a special committee had been set up under the ministry to re-evaluate its effectiveness and the implications of closing it down before a decision is made. — Bernama
Mohamad said independent studies conducted by various parties including Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 2010 and Universiti Sains Malaysia in 2014 found that the programme resulted in a positive increase in patriotism and national integration in the participants.
“We will consider the views of people with vested interests such as parents, former trainers and the relevant bodies. The ministry is conducting a review to assess the effectiveness of the programme and the implications of abolishing it before a final decision is made,” he reiterated.
However, he added, if the programme which was the brainchild of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak who was then Defence Minister was continued, several aspects had to be improved including in its maintenance and co-curricular activities.
“For instance, from the aspect of expense, if it is continued, where can we cut down. Rental of the camps, buses, why are they so high, and where do the youths go after the programme? Has it achieved its objectives?

“I am confident that if it is properly managed with a strong co-curriculum, it will be beneficial,” he said.
