ACA arrest Sabah Education Dept officer

KOTA KINABALU: A senior officer with the Sabah Education Department has been arrested by the Anti Corruption Agency for allegedly making false claims.

The officer, in his 50s and holding a very senior post in the department, was arrested on Monday.

He is alleged to have submitted a claim of RM5,600 for expenses incurred in transporting students in four chartered buses to Sandakan for a table tennis tournament. There was no such programme.

He is to be charged on Tuesday afternoon.

YES!!!

It's time we put these kind of government official into lockup! RM5,600 might only last him 2 days but he is taking away what is rightful for the citizen.

When I was playing in Under-12, Under-15 & Under-18 badminton tournaments back in the nineties. The winning price money was only RM15 for champion & RM10 for runner-up!

Now, I know where all the money goooooooooone!
