BEIJING (SCMP): After years of unsuccessful blind dates, a man from southern China found love with a Belarusian woman who is a head taller than him, and they renewed their vows at a government promotional event celebrating traditional Chinese weddings.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's decision to classify the HRD Corp case as No Further Action , despite it being flagged in audit reports, is shocking, says a Public Accounts Committee member.

In a briefing to the Dewan Rakyat, Sim Tze Tzin, who represented the PAC, said the MACC informed the committee in a proceeding that the HRD Corp case was classified as NFA. "This is very shocking and strange as the Auditor-General’s report had stated that there are criminal elements and abuse of power in HRD Corp. In fact, the PAC itself, through 10 proceedings from October 2023 to March 2024, had found an element of abuse of power in HRD Corp," he said on Monday .In a report tabled by PAC on Monday, an MACC investigation officer, Mohd Fuad Sedet, said there was no wrongdoing found against HRD Corp under the MACC Act 2009.

Suspicious real estate deals and high-risk investments were some of the issues identified by the PAC in its report released in July on HRD Corp. It also found that HRD Corp had invested levies collected from employers in several high-risk investments, despite the training fund not being an investment institution.Fight to save Sabah wildlife gets financial boost from US Department of State
