PETALING JAYA: Police did not investigate the Petrosaudi International Ltd in the country as they did not receive any reports on the company's alleged misappropriation of funds, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar.
In a statement released today, he had confirmed that there were no reports received against the company to allow the police to conduct any investigations.
He had issued the statement due to numerous enquiries from various parties pertaining to the issue.
"Thus, this speculation on this matter should be stopped immediately," Khalid said in the statement.

Khalid in Thailand to question Xavier Justo
over allegations pertaining to the 1MDB scandal.
KUALA LUMPUR: Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar has
reportedly left for Thailand
to address the matter of the alleged leak of classified 1MDB documents by
Xavier Andre Justo.
It is understood that Khalid would be meeting his counterpart there.
The top cop before this had stated his readiness to head the investigation team to Thailand to question the 49-year-old Swiss national, a former PetroSaudi International Ltd (PetroSaudi) staff, in connection to claims of Justo's secret meeting with the Malaysian opposition.
Justo is claimed to have met key Malaysian opposition politicians to sell private information.
Following the alleged sale, several emails and documents were published by the Sarawak Report news portal that led to a multitude of allegations against 1MDB.
Khalid had said the investigation team would also probe the information given by the Thai police including a recording of a conversation with former Sarawak Tribune editor, Lester Melanyi.
Melanyi, in his recent video exposes, had claimed that the 1MDB scandal was only one of several plans hatched to discredit and subsequently overthrow the Malaysian government.
Khalid had said the investigation team is aimed to find out why several quarters are trying to overthrow the government in an undemocratic manner, a crime punishable under Section 124 of the Penal Code.

Thai police
had arrested Justo on June 22 on charges of blackmailing PetroSaudi. Thai
police had reportedly said if Justo is convicted by the courts, he would then
need to fulfill two-thirds of his jail term before he can be extradited.

Escaping Najib’s Malaysia, investors also flee
currency, stock market
Published: 19 August 2015 10:39 AM
Confidence among international economists and
analysts is low on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's leadership with the
main worry being the ongoing 1MDB scandal saga and sacking of senior Cabinet
members over criticisms against the state investment fund. – The Malaysian
Insider pic, August 19, 2015.While Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib
Razak’s Cabinet reshuffle last month may have achieved the “unified team” he
was seeking in the face of probes into his bank accounts, global funds have
been voting with their feet.
The ringgit has slumped 6.3%, the benchmark stock index lost 9.4% and
sovereign bond risk jumped to a four-year high since the Malaysian
Anti-Corruption Commission on August 3 said Najib had received RM2.6 billion
from donors and not state investment company 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).
The conclusion failed to help 1MDB’s bonds, which are trading at 81 cents on
the dollar.
PineBridge Investments LLC has cut Malaysian sovereign bond holdings, while
Schroder Investment Management Ltd says it’s too early to buy Asia’s
worst-performing currency, as political uncertainty clouds the outlook for an
economy rocked by plunging oil prices and an emerging-market selloff.
Najib had denied taking money for personal gain and has
counter-attacked against what he described as a campaign to oust him, by
reshuffling his Cabinet, suspending a leading newspaper and seeking the arrest
of a newsletter’s founder.
“By sacking everyone who criticises him, prime minister Najib is putting
himself more in the spotlight from an international investor perspective,” said
Anders Faergemann, who helps manage US$10.6 billion (RM43.25 billion) of
emerging-market debt at PineBridge in London.
“We are increasingly worried about the outlook for Malaysian government
bonds due to the ongoing 1MDB scandal and have recently reduced our exposure
further.”
‘Unified team’
The UK-based Sarawak Report and the Wall Street Journal last month
reported on documents that almost US$700 million may have moved through
government agencies and companies linked to 1MDB before ending up in accounts
bearing Najib’s name.
A warrant is out for the arrest of the Sarawak Report founder under laws
relating to false statements and acts detrimental to democracy. Lawyers for
Najib sent a letter criticizing the Journal report. Malaysia’s Edge newspaper has been
suspended from publication as the government said its coverage of the events
threatened public order. Publishers of all three media outlets contested the
criticism.
On July 28, Najib said he needed a “unified team” when he removed Tan Sri
Muhyiddin Yassin from his Cabinet, shortly after the deputy prime minister
called for “the real truth” on 1MDB.
His rural development minister also fell in the shuffle, while attorney-general
Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail, who helped to lead a 1MDB probe, was replaced for
"health reasons".
Amnesty International described Malaysia as a human rights “black
hole” in May after the arrest of opponents on sedition charges.
Under attack
Najib, who chairs the advisory board of 1MDB, has resisted calls from
former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to step down over the RM42
billion in debt amassed by the fund.
The anti-corruption commission said the money in Najib’s accounts was from
donors in the Middle East and not 1MDB. It
said it wouldn’t disclose their identities and planned to question Najib about
the funds. Malaysian opposition party, PKR, announced on August 12 that it
would be suing Najib, saying his coalition breached campaign spending limits
during 2013 elections.
Najib said last week that while there are rules on such expenditure, there
are no laws on funding. He said better legislation is needed. His office didn’t
respond to emailed requests for comment. 1MDB said in a statement that it had
investor support for its reorganisation plans.
Malaysia, Brazil
“1MDB maintains regular contact with its bondholders, via meetings and
conference calls,” the statement said. “The vast majority of our bondholders
are fully aware of our current strategy and the on-going execution of our
rationalization plan, and we are pleased with the support they have provided.”
La Francaise Des Placements, which sold almost half of its 1MDB debt in
April, see similarities between the controversy and allegations involving
Petroleo Brasileiro SA that has led to protests against Brazilian president
Dilma Rousseff. While the fund doesn’t expect a default, the current climate
makes it “difficult to buy,” she said.
“As emerging-market fund managers, we are more or less used to difficult
stories,” said Yasmine Ravai-Mans, a senior La Francaise Des Placements fund
manager in Paris.
But if the money was used for other purposes than the national interest,
she said, “it will not be just a regular case of corruption, it’ll be a huge
scandal.
The mix of politics, money trails, central bank investigations would rank
it close to Petrobras in terms of how toxic it is to emerging-market
investors.”
‘Trust deficit’
The ringgit has tumbled 22.7% in the last 12 months and slid to a 17-year
low of 4.1340 per dollar on Monday. Local-currency sovereign debt handed
investors a 8.4% loss in dollar terms this month, the worst performance among
16 emerging markets tracked by JPMorgan Chase & Co indexes. The cost to
insure the securities for five years using credit-default swaps climbed to 180,
the highest since 2011.
“There’s a growing trust deficit with the current leadership,” said Chua
Hak Bin, a Singapore-based economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, which
sees the currency dropping to 4.28 by the end of 2016.
“Without confidence returning on the leadership and government, investors
will be reluctant to jump into the currency and the markets.”
Overseas investors cut holdings of Malaysian debt by 2.4% in July to a
three-year low of 206.8 billion ringgit, central bank data show. The FTSE Bursa
Malaysia KLCI Index lost 10.3% this year as foreign investors pulled US$3.3
billion.
Restoring confidence
The nation has to show “a greater tolerance towards democracy, fighting
corruption and a conservative monetary and fiscal policy” to restore
confidence, said Christian Wildmann, a fixed-income portfolio manager at Union
Investment Privatfonds GmbH in Frankfurt.
Malaysia’s 10-year sovereign yield has jumped 23 basis points
this month to 4.30% and Wildmann sees its rising to 4.7% by year-end.
Moody’s Investors Service is standing by its A3 rating on Malaysia with a
positive outlook as Najib’s administration hasn’t reversed reforms despite the
“increased political risk,” said Christian de Guzman, a vice president in
Singapore.
The ruling Barisan Nasional coalition lost the popular vote in the May
2013 general election, even as it kept a parliamentary majority. The next
general election must be held by 2018.
Schroder Investment is among fund managers that view the probes as just
one of the challenges for an economy that expanded at the slowest pace in
almost two years in the second quarter.
“The domestic situation on the political side is uncertain,” said Rajeev
De Mello, who oversees about $10 billion as head of Asian fixed income in Singapore. “But
the other problems are the falling oil prices and commodity prices, which do
impact Malaysia.”
Merrill’s Chua said politics may affect economic management. There are
doubts that when central bank governor Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz finishes her
term at the end of April she will be replaced by someone as “independent and
credible,” he said.
“Investors cannot see the end-game,” he said. “Anybody who questions the
prime minister has basically been sidelined.” – Bloomberg, August 19, 2015.
