MACC secures RM4.5mil forfeiture linked to 1MDB from Swiss bank account
MACC said this marks the first successful forfeiture of overseas assets linked to 1MDB without involving prosecution. (AP pic) PETALING JAYA : The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has secured the forfeiture of US$954,299.58 (RM4.5 million) from a Swiss bank account linked to the misappropriation of 1MDB funds. MACC said the Kuala Lumpur High Court allowed the forfeiture today after the deputy public prosecutor informed the court that there were no objections or claims made by any party during the proceedings. 'Justice K Muniandy granted the application to forfeit the funds held in a BSI Bank account in Switzerland under the name of Derivale Ltd, whose beneficiary is Azlin Alias,' it said in a statement. The forfeiture was carried out under Section 56 of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001. According to MACC, this marks the first successful forfeiture of overseas assets without involving prosecution. It said the funds will now be transferred to the government as part of ongoing recovery efforts related to the 1MDB scandal. Last month, MACC chief Azam Baki said repatriating assets linked to 1MDB remained a difficult process as many of these stolen assets were located overseas. He said the complex nature of the case made international cooperation crucial, especially when it came to tracing and retrieving funds that were siphoned into multiple countries. Azam also said Malaysia lost an estimated RM277 billion to corruption between 2018 and 2023 – an average of RM55 billion a year – describing the amount as 'very alarming'.

Interview: China-Africa expo highlights deepening economic ties, says Zimbabwean expert
HARARE, June 13 (Xinhua) -- The ongoing China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo (CAETE) showcases the deepening economic ties between China and Africa and serves as a platform for advancing pragmatic, mutually beneficial cooperation, a policy expert told Xinhua on Friday. "The ongoing CAETE shows that China and Africa can work together to develop pragmatic solutions that will enhance cooperation and mutual benefit, while enhancing sustainable development and modernization in Africa," Munetsi Madakufamba, executive director of the Southern African Research and Documentation Center, a Zimbabwe-based think tank, told Xinhua in a written interview. Noting that trade between China and Africa has expanded significantly since the inception of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) in 2000, Madakufamba said platforms such as CAETE help further deepen trade, drive Africa's industrialization and narrow trade disparities. "Africa aspires not only to import finished goods but also to develop its manufacturing sector, which requires the development of infrastructure and machinery to produce finished goods," he said, adding that Africa welcomes China to establish more manufacturing hubs in Africa to facilitate the continent's modernization and industrialization. Such cooperation, he added, would allow Africa to leapfrog with cutting-edge technology and build robust industrial capacity, while creating new trade and investment opportunities for both sides. Besides strengthening economic and trade relations, Madakufamba said that the expo also aligns with the 10 partnership action plans proposed at last year's FOCAC summit. During a ministerial meeting in Changsha city ahead of the expo, China announced plans to extend zero-tariff treatment on 100 percent of tariff lines to all 53 African countries with which it maintains diplomatic ties. Madakufamba praised this commitment as a major step forward in boosting trade and deepening Sino-African cooperation. "In today's environment characterized by trade wars and worldwide tariff impositions by the United States, the CAETE presents a platform for pragmatic solutions that have the potential to balance global trade," he said, noting that engaging with African entrepreneurs and innovators is essential to address the unique demands of the African market. The expo is further evidence of China's commitment to economic globalization, multilateralism, and the sharing of development gains with the world, he added.

Roundup: China, Africa seek increased opportunities in EV cooperation
by Justice Lee Adoboe ACCRA, June 13 (Xinhua) -- China and African countries are seeking more opportunities for cooperation in electric vehicle (EV) development and manufacturing. During the 2025 China-Africa Automotive Development Forum held in Ghana earlier this week, experts, policymakers, investors, and engineers from China and African countries shared their views on the necessity and feasibility of EV development in Africa's automotive industry. Kojo Annobil, director at the Ghana Automotive Development Center (GADC), told Xinhua that Ghana would leverage its strong relations with China to include EVs in its automotive industry development agenda. In line with the new agenda, Ghana would revise its automotive development policy to make room for EV development in the country, he said. Under the revised policy, Annobil said the GADC would work with the government to introduce tax incentives on the importation of EV components that cannot be produced locally to make the final products more affordable to Ghanaians and promote EVs in the country. The revised policy would also capture knowledge transfer to enable the training of a pool of local engineers and technicians specialized in EVs, according to Annobil. "What we have to do is strengthen relationships with China and see how we can further the technology transfer going forward," he said. Seth Mahu, director in charge of renewable energy at the Ghanaian Ministry of Energy and Green Transition, said in a statement that Ghana has laid the groundwork for the manufacture of EVs. He said that with at least eight vehicle assembly plants in the country, including a Chinese company and a local entity, Ghana is now ready for the next step from assembling combustion vehicles to designing and producing EVs, tailored for African roads, powered by African minds, and built with African hands. On infrastructure, he said that Ghana is expanding the national EV charging network with solar-grid hybrid models to ensure resilience and sustainability. "With Ghana's abundant solar potential, our future charging infrastructure will not just be functional. It will be clean, decentralized, and smart. We plan to deploy, over the next five years, at least 100 rapid charging stations nationwide," the official added. Besides Ghana, Nigeria has also been paving the way for the green transition of the automotive industry. At the forum, Philip Iorliam Ianna, Nigerian engineer at the National Automotive Design and Development Council, revealed that Nigeria has pledged to achieve 100 percent in EV adoption by 2060, while vowing to reduce import duties and exempt value-added tax on EVs. Ianna noted that over 20 Nigerian companies are engaged in EV manufacturing, primarily focusing on electric two-wheelers. Although full-scale local production remains limited, these firms have laid the groundwork for expanding domestic capabilities, he said, expressing expectations of further collaboration with China in the area. Yang Yang, managing director of Zonda Tec Ghana Limited, a Chinese vehicle assembly plant in Ghana, announced that her company would soon start assembling EVs locally. "We are now building a state-of-the-art assembly plant dedicated to EVs, a game-changer that will put Ghana on the map as a leader in sustainable mobility," Yang said. Yang pledged efforts to synergize China's world-leading new energy vehicle (NEV) technologies with localized operational expertise, as well as capitalize on China's NEV sector growth and battery supply chain dominance to meet African market demands. She added that this new EV plant is more than just a factory; it is about creating vehicles that are affordable, reliable, and environmentally friendly, designed with African roads and African lives in mind. During the forum, multiple scholars and engineers from countries including China, Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria presented their research projects in advanced EV technologies, while an exhibition mounted by Chinese auto companies showcased their newest brands.
