Siasatan Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) terhadap bekas Menteri Kewangan, Tun Daim Zainuddin yang membawa kepada penyitaan bangunan mercu tandanya, Menara Ilham, semalam berkemungkinan terkait dengan perjanjian kontroversi Renong-UEM yang sudah lama wujud.
The Malaysian government has denied having forcibly taken over the shareholding of United Engineers Malaysia Bhd (UEM) and Renong Berhad, owned by the latter’s former executive chairman Tan Sri Halim Saad 23 years ago.
Kerajaan Malaysia menafikan telah mengambil alih pemegangan saham United Engineers Malaysia Bhd (UEM) dan Renong Berhad milik bekas Pengerusi Eksekutif Renong Berhad, Tan Sri Halim Saad secara paksa, 23 tahun lepas
A writ of summons Tan Sri Halim Saad against Dr Mahathir and former chairman of Khazanah Nasional Bhd Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop claims that Dr Mahathir was forcing Halim to release Renong (worth RM2.1 billion) for a mere RM165 million.
