So, don’t blame the rakyat if they become cynical about your anti-corruption slogans," he said.Meanwhile, in a separate story, businessperson Albert Tei has questioned why no police reports or legal suits have been filed against him, if allegations linking several Sabah politicians to a mining licence scandal are untrue.He stressed that if his allegations are “malicious and defamatory”, lawful action should have already been initiated against him.___________________In conjunction with Malaysiakini turning 26 and the upcoming Sabah State Election, from now to 30 November, you can subscribe or renew your Malaysiakini package with 25% off.
