PAS Youth Ahmad Fadhli Shaari claims more issues will be resurfacing after the LCS scandal.
Its youth chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari said more secrets will be revealed. However, he did not give more hints.
“Fasten your seatbelt.. ” he said in his Facebook post today.
On Aug 4, Public Accounts Committee chairman Wong Kah Woh revealed that cost overruns for the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) project totalled RM1.4 billion, with RM400 million used to pay old debts from an old patrol vessel project.
The LCS project is the largest procurement in the history of Mindef with a total cost of RM9 billion.
The said contract began in 2013 with a ten-year time frame and six LCS ships were expected to be built and delivered to the country by the end of 2023, however not a single ship had been completed although Putrajaya had spent RM6 billion on the project, which was given to Boustead Naval Shipyard Sdn Bhd (BNS) in 2011 through direct negotiations.
