MACC cripples tobacco smuggling syndicates

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has crippled a tobacco and cigar smuggling syndicate believed to have caused more than RM250mil in tax revenue losses between 2020 and 2024. The operation, codenamed Op Sikaro, was carried out by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's Special Operations Division with the cooperation of the Inland Revenue Board, Bank Negara Malaysia and the Customs Department. Raids were conducted at 14 locations across the Klang Valley and Johor on Tuesday (Aug 19). According to sources, enforcement teams targeted business premises and company owners involved in the tobacco, cigar and liquor distribution trade. "Following the raids, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission froze personal and company bank accounts amounting to RM218mil," the source said. Customs also suspended the import licences of several companies identified as being part of the smuggling network pending further investigations. It is believed that the syndicate had the cooperation of certain enforcement officers. Investigations will also focus on tracing and seizing assets acquired through money laundering activities. Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Special Operations Division senior director Datuk Mohamad Zamri Zainul Abidin confirmed the raids. He said investigations are being conducted under Section 16 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009 and Section 4(1) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001. "The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission will not compromise with any parties seeking to profit through corruption, money laundering and smuggling, which cause huge losses to the country," he said.

NSCMA president starts NSCMH private placement

Dato' Seri Lee Tian Hock, Director of CMH Medical Holdings Bhd., briefed attendees on the private placement and hospital's development plans. SEREMBAN: NSCMH Holdings Sdn Bhd has launched its private placement exercise with a strong show of confidence from the Negri Sembilan Chinese Maternity Association (NSCMA) president, Datuk Seri Lee Tian Hock (pic), who became the first subscriber with a RM25mil investment for 10 million shares. In a statement, NSCMH Holdings said support also came swiftly from the Seremban Wah Chai Association and the Negeri Sembilan Persatuan Hainan, which committed RM1mil and RM250,000, respectively. Following a briefing session, the three parties submitted their subscription forms on the spot. The private placement, priced at RM2.50 per share, is open to members of the NSCMA, employees, association members, and attending doctors of CMH Specialist Hospital and CMH Dialysis Care. A minimum subscription of 100,000 shares applies, with the exercise running until Sept 6. Lee conducted the briefing, outlining the mechanics of the placement, the hospital's long-term development blueprint and answering questions from attendees. He assured that should the subscription be oversubscribed, he would reduce his portion to accommodate others. However, if undersubscribed, he would take up the balance to ensure the success of the exercise. 'This is not only a fundraising initiative but also a commitment to social responsibility. 'By leading with my own investment, I hope to inspire confidence and drive collective participation towards the success of this private placement,' Lee said. NSCMH Holdings plans to issue 18 million new shares. It is targeting RM45mil to finance 30% of the RM120mil construction cost for CMH Specialist Hospital's new medical block. This comes under its phase two redevelopment project. The remaining RM80mil will be funded through bank borrowings guaranteed personally by Lee, with corporate guarantees from NSCMA and NSCMH Holdings. Lee stressed that the arrangement does not involve mortgaging hospital land or buildings and complies fully with the association's constitution. Upon completion of the exercise, NSCMA will retain a controlling stake of 69% in the company.
