00:00So, it is not an offence. It could be a moral offence, I do not know. I'm not going to

00:07barge into that, that this is a moral offence. MECC cannot be involved in that. So, if, for

00:12example, the politician wants to say this is a moral offence, up you. I'm not a politician.

00:18This matter is a matter of state. It's a state decision. It's the Menteri Besar's decision.

00:23It's not her decision.

00:26Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Chief Azam Bakyi defended his response to concerns

00:30raised following the Selangor government's decision to award a transport-related project

00:35to a company linked to a minister's husband. Azam said that when he declared that the Selangor

00:41government did no wrong in awarding a new demand-responsive transit service project

00:46to Asia Mobility Technologies' Sundarian Berhad, it was based on fact. He believed his

00:52explanation on the matter was the clearest he could provide to the public.

00:56Concerns have been raised on the possible preferential treatment given to Asia Mobility.

01:00One of the two companies awarded the project without an open tender.

01:05The firm's CEO M. Ramachandran is the husband of Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeo.

01:11Yesterday, Azam said MACC would not probe the award of the project, adding that there

01:16was no link between Yeo's ministry and the Selangor government.
