SHAH ALAM, June 9 — The reduction in competition was a testament to Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s support of monthly cash assistance in the hundreds of thousands in Singapore dollars he had received from Ultra Kirana Sdn Bhd’s between 2014 and 2018, a witness told the High Court today.

Wan Quoris said it was utmost important for UKSB to ensure their business remained uninterrupted at the material time, since there were several companies attempting to lobby for the VLN contracts UKSB was executing. In his testimony, Wan Quoris Shah told the court he was tasked with expanding UKSB’s businesses through lobbying to obtain supply and service contracts from the government during his tenure as a company director between May 2013 and August 2018.

Later, Wan Quoris Shah affirmed the monthly cash payments made to Ahmad Zahid as it was a request for help that UKSB obliged to, admitting that he had knowledge of the matter since he had personally handed over the cash to the latter several times.“While he did not directly make the request, through the manner of his speech I understood he was hoping for cash assistance from UKSB,” Wan Quoris Shah said.
