KOTA BHARU \u2014 PAS has urged the Pakatan Harapan Government to introduce a law to control political funding in the country.<\/p>\n
PAS deputy president Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said former prime minister Najib Tun Razak had tried to bring the matter to Parliament, but it did not materialise.<\/p>\n
\u201cActually, the draft had been completed and PAS and Gagasan Sejahtera had expressed our views on the Bill and several initial actions to be taken by the (Barisan Nasional) government.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut unfortunately the Bill was not brought to Parliament and in the next session, we will try to urge the (present) Government to bring it up again,\u201d he told reporters while attending the Kelantan State Economic Development Corporation\u2019s Aidilfitri event here, today.<\/p>\n
Tuan Ibrahim was commenting on the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission\u2019s (MACC) move to freeze 900 accounts \u2014 including several owned by Umno central and state chapters \u2014 following an investigation into the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal.<\/p>\n
