SHAH ALAM: Ultra Kirana Sdn Bhd had sent several letters to former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to seek support following competition from other companies interested in operating the One-Stop Centre for visas in China and several other countries, the High Court here was told.
"The letter dated Jan 20, 2014, aimed to express hope that the government could maintain UKSB as the sole operator for visa management to Malaysia in China.” He said this while reading his witness's statement during the principal examination by deputy public prosecutor Zander Lim Wai Keong. Apart from that, Fadzil, who is the 14th prosecution witness, said that his company had also sent a letter to Ahmad Zahid on Oct 17, 2016, to seek support for the VLN and eVISA to become the “de facto” system for the visa issuance process at all visa issuing offices.
Meanwhile, during a cross-examination by lawyer Hamidi Mohd Noh representing Ahmad Zahid, 12th prosecution witness, Abdul Rahim, agreed that the recommendation to appoint Profound Radiance Sdn Bhd and Foshwa Sdn Bhd as OSC operators for Bangladesh and other South Asian countries came from the Ministry of Home Affairs, and not from Ahmad Zahid, who was the home minister at the time.
