Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil disclosed that neither his ministry nor the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) were aware of Digital Nasional Berhad's (DNB) operations when he assumed office in December 2022. This revelation was made during Budget 2025 debates.
KUALA LUMPUR: No one knew what was going on with the Digital Nasional Berhad when the unity government first took over, says Fahmi Fadzil .
"It was horrifying and concerning," he said when winding up Budget 2025 debates for the Communications Ministry at the committee level on Wednesday . During the Cabinet reshuffle in December 2023, the Communications and Digital Ministry was split into the separate ministries. “Does the minister also agree that the Auditor-General’s report on this should be put up for debates in Parliament?” he said.“Was it approved by the previous Cabinet when Parliament was suspended for six months?” he asked.
