KOTA KINABALU, July 21 — Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal has today denied knowledge of a purported letter sent by former attorney general Tan Sri Tommy Thomas in 2019 to the self-styled Sulu Sultanate “heirs” acknowledging their right to be paid an annual stipend.
“If they don’t know about it, what more me? I don’t have any say in the AG’s actions. So if the prime minister doesn’t know, I wouldn’t know either.Thomas’ controversial letter allegedly expressed the willingness of the Malaysian government to pay the outstanding arrears of RM48,000 in cession payments since 2013 and this was used by the lawyers for the Sulu heirs as Malaysia’s recognition of the claimants.
Najib had yesterday asserted that the PH government’s acknowledgement of the Sulu heirs’ claim could have long term consequences as it has “acknowledged that Sabah really belongs to the Sulu representatives”.
