DAP has urged Barisan Nasional to come clean on Malaysia’s illicit money outflows totalling US$291 billion (RM888 billion) from 2000 to 2008.
Malaysia had the fifth-largest amount of illegal money outflows among developing countries during that period, according to a report by US-based financial watchdog Global Financial integrity (GFI) released this month.
“DAP regrets that land ‘pirates’ are allowed to roam freely in Malaysia,” said DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng in a statement today.
“Any clean and responsible government with integrity would have immediately established a Royal Commission of Inquiry into this RM888 billion illicit capital outflow scandal,” he added.
