Talent solution raise questions on integrity of NEAC member

The open currently have an expectancy upon how a country is to move forward with brand brand new ways upon how a economy is being programmed as well as driven to encounter a challenges of globalisation as well as current global monetary crisis.

Prime Minister Dato Seri Najib is meeting which expectancy with ambitious, if not courageous, brand brand new ideas. The New Economic Model as well as 10th Malaysia Plan is right away being crafted as well as carved out of a memory of Mahathir-nomics.

It set a tall expansion as well as an mercantile gait which warrants a expectancy to be a grown nation by 2020 despite undergoing a five-and-a half year of socio-economic-political-cultural setback as well as flip-flop policies of Tun Abdullah's slumbering tenure.

Despite such tall expectation, a open as well approach upon Government to practise a tall turn of transparency, professionalism as well as great governance.

This could be a 'tale of shit upon a tail being wagged'. The shit will strike a ceiling as well as dirtied a walls.

It is a case of 'double dipping' by a part of of a top mercantile formulation body i.e. a National Economic Action Council (NEAC), namely a single Datuk Dr. Hamzah Kassim which will destroy each great bid made by a PM.

Hamzah is regarded as a leading tellurian collateral expert in a nation as well as rarely spoken of by industry as well as amongst academics.

He sits in a NEAC having a specific seductiveness in tellurian collateral which is being advised, formulated as well as programmed for a Government as policies as well as doing programs.

It is strongly believed which PM Najibs not long ago voiced plan for a Talent Corporation in a 10th Malaysia Plan displ! ay to a Parliament dual weeks ago was a brainchild of Hamzah.

Hamzah additionally sits upon a board of Encorp Bhd as well as thought to have a close organisation to Dato Mohd. Effendi Nawawi, a former Minister in-charge of EPU.

Hamzah, a former ISIS researcher-turned-consultant is a Group CEO for local expert Innovation Associates (IA).

IA Group was spinoff from Ernest & Young Cap Gemini when a Malaysian partners decided to start their own some eight years ago.

The groups buttress of commercial operation is consultancy, record (which include ICT) as well as tellurian collateral management. They even have dedicated subsidiaries for these commercial operation activities.

Hamzah is a Group CEO of IA Group of Companies as well as plays a really active purpose in a commercial operation growth of these subsidiaries.

The subject movement is how could an NEAC member, who is formulation as well as formulating a tellurian collateral for a Government as well as after become policies, blueprints as well as doing programs, be awarded as well as is still posterior Government contracts?

Hamzah as well as IA Group was awarded contracts as well as is right away actively posterior Government awarded commercial operation opportunities underneath Ministry of Human Resource, Ministry of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, NCIA, IRDA, ECER as well as Khazanah Holdings Bhd.

Recently, IA Group formed a corner venture with Felda Prodata Systems Sdn. Bhd. to rise ICT commercial operation opportunities.

IA Group is an IT player is believed to ride upon Feldas in front of being a GLC as well as PM Najibs close affinity for a land reform group which turned into a full fledged commercial operation entity.

Hamzah is additionally believed to be really close to Felda Group CEO Dato Mohd. Bakke Salleh, who has been voiced as a upcoming Group CEO of Sime Darby Bhd.

Now which Bakke is a Group CEO for a Malaysian MNC with really vast regional oper! ations i n China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, a Philippines, Australia as well as some African states, Hamzah would of course ride upon all a opportunities which will open to him as well as a IA Group.

Hamzah's firmness is during interest here. He is a Commissioner of a Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC).

This raises some-more question. Could as well as many importantly, should an MACC commissioner, who is additionally part of of a NEAC, seek votes in approach as well as surreptitious commercial operation opportunities as well as contracts from Government as well as GLCs?

Probably, PM Najib should severely demeanour into a talents which is being brought to suggest a Government in central capacity.

It is unwise to have a talent solution upon personalities such as this but open his administration, policies as well as doing to attacks as well as patently in front of which is undefendable.

Najib should not be over reliance upon central as well as advisors but settle his own back channel to do consummate credentials check as well as safeguard a firmness of personalities filling up important places in Government as well as GLCS.

As it is, Najib's customary domestic answer to hold in a capacity of Tan Sri Amirsham to fill a post of NEAC Chairman has proven him wrong.

He is believed to have selected Amirsham formed upon a recomendation of Tan Sri Nor Mohamd Yakcop. Amirsham's firmness is being questioned during a twilight of his career in Maybank's overpriced purchase of Bank Indonesia Internasional (BII).

His controversial firmness has right away translated into his wrongful appointment of such NEAC members as Hamzah.

Najib's had again overreliede upon a Sime Darby officials' line of logic to name Dato Mohd Bakke Salleh as CEO without a consummate assessment of his performance during Felda, Bank Islam as well as Ta! bung Haj i as well as organisational match.

Such slip may infer disastrous as well as it is not impossible which a new Sime Darby monetary complaint will lead to a bigger as well as some-more critical monetary scandal in a future. It has happened elsewhere prior to as well as it had happened in a 'original' Sime Darby.

And, scandals have been something Najib should equivocate by miles, despite Merdeka Centre giving false feel great vibes of 72% of Malaysians polled to have agreed with his skeleton for Malaysia.
