CAGM should beware of crying wolf syndrome
July 15, 2015
The CAGM is barking up the wrong tree by equating journalism with the social media.
Comment
The so-called Citizens for Accountable Governance Malaysia (CAGM) now claims in a crying wolf syndrome that its earlier email and a statement on the same subject, breach of Bank Negara regulations, was a hoax as part of an “experiment”.
Social media is not journalism. The CAGM is barking up the wrong tree by equating journalism with the social media. Those in the social media and most bloggers make no claim to being journalists. The social media and blogging sites may in fact not preach the Gospel Truth but what matters here is what the people believe. In the public mind, what they believe is the truth.
It’s obvious that the objective of these nefarious characters behind CAGM was to try and convince readers that perhaps the media’s reporting so far on Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak may have been littered with inaccuracies and errors.
…
Sooner or later, the faceless creatures behind CAGM will be exposed and the regular media and the social media will go to town with the expose and have the last laugh. He who laughs last, laughs the longest and the best!

‘CAGM’ fabricates SD of AmBank officer
The redacted statutory declaration (SD) published on various news portals including Malaysiakini was fabricated by a blog named Citizens for Accountable Governance Malaysia (CAGM). The SD claimed an AmBank banker was sacked for trying to report to Bank Negara about large amount of transactions involving an account purportedly owned by the prime minister.
…
The CAGM blog, which posted an unredacted version of the SD this evening, said it is fictitious. However, the commissioner for oaths stamp was genuine, and could have been misused. Prior to publishing CAGM’s SD claim, Malaysiakini had run a check on the commissioner for oaths whose stamp appeared on the SD, which showed the person existed.
According to the commissioner for oath’s database, Faridah Abdul Hamid (No. PJS: W420) served as a commissioner of oaths from Jan 1, 2012 to Dec 31, 2014. The SD was dated May 8, 2013.
Malaysiakini had also emailed AmBank for response.
The CAGM blog also posted what is purportedly a conversation between The Wall Street Journal Asia markets editor Tom Wright and Zainal with regard to the SD.
The posted conversation with WSJ appeared to be an attempt to discredit Wright and WSJ in the wake of allegations against Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak published in the financial daily.

‘AmBank officer axed over PM’s account’
Anti-corruption watchdog Citizens for Accountable Governance Malaysia (CAGM) has claimed a banker was sacked for trying to inform Bank Negara about large amount of transactions into an account purportedly controlled by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.
Backing its claim, CAGM uploaded a statutory declaration (SD) on its blog which it claimed was made by the former AmBank banker.
“Since these transactions were higher in amount than the allowed threshold, I had to notify Bank Negara and I told my superior that I had to follow the procedures.
“My superior, who was on the phone at that time with AmBank chairman Tan Sri Azman Hashim, slammed the phone and told me to follow instructions because this is a high profile, VVIP.
“When I brought up the notification procedure, my superior yelled at me and told me Bank Negara has already given the green light for these transfers and I just had to follow instructions,” read the SD.
According to the SD, the man claimed he was asked to clear an incoming remittance from UBS Bank Singapore with an amount of SG$7 million in three transactions on May 2, 2013 with another SG$14 million the week before.
The officer’s name was redacted in the copy of the SD, dated May 8, 2013, uploaded by CAGM.
When contacted, CAGM chairperson Md Zainal Abidin said his NGO was releasing the document as the auditor-general report appears to be sugar coating the 1MDB case. However, the document uploaded does not indicate who the money came from other than stating that it was from UBS Bank Singapore.
Md Zainal said the document is partially redacted as the man who made the SD was hesitant about going public. He said the man, who in the SD claimed he had worked for AmBank for 14 years and nine months when he was terminated, was in limbo as the terms of his severance had yet to be finalised.
