Netherlands first to fund US arms for Ukraine via NATO channel
AMSTERDAM/BRUSSELS: The Netherlands said on Monday it will contribute 500 million euros ($578 million) to purchase U.S. military equipment for Ukraine, becoming the first NATO country to contribute to a new mechanism to supply Kyiv with American weapons. President Donald Trump said last month the U.S. would provide weapons to Ukraine, paid for by European allies, but he did not provide details on how this would work. 'As the first NATO ally, the Netherlands will deliver a €500 million package of US weapon systems (including Patriot parts and missiles),' Dutch Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans said in a post on X. NATO chief Mark Rutte, a former Dutch prime minister, welcomed the announcement and said he has encouraged other alliance members to participate in the new mechanism, called the NATO Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) initiative. 'This is about getting Ukraine the equipment it urgently needs now to defend itself against Russian aggression,' Rutte said in a statement. 'I have written to all NATO Allies, urging them to contribute towards this burden sharing initiative, and I expect further significant announcements from other Allies soon,' he added. The U.S. ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, told Reuters on Monday that he expected many more countries to announce over the coming weeks that they will participate. 'We're moving as fast as possible,' Whitaker said in an interview at NATO headquarters in Brussels. Asked about a timeline for getting U.S. deliveries to Ukraine under the new mechanism, he said, 'I think we'll see it moving very quickly, certainly in the coming weeks, but some even sooner than that. 'The Dutch are just the first of many. You're going to see a series of announcements in the coming weeks,' he added. NATO said it would coordinate the new initiative, which is funded by European members of the alliance and Canada and will be divided into packages worth approximately $500 million. In a statement, the alliance said, 'Working closely with Ukraine and the United States, the Supreme Allied Commander Europe Alexus Grynkewich will validate packages that correspond to Ukraine's needs, such as air defence, ammunition and other critical equipment for rapid delivery from U.S. stockpiles'. Kyiv welcomed the Dutch decision. 'Ukraine, and thus the whole of Europe, will be better protected from Russian terror,' Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy wrote on X. 'I am sincerely grateful to the Netherlands for their substantial contribution to strengthening Ukraine's air shield,' he added. ($1 = 0.8649 euros) - Reuters

Tycoon who brought F1 to Singapore pleads guilty in graft case
SINGAPORE: A Malaysian hotel tycoon who helped bring Formula One to Singapore pleaded guilty Monday to abetting the obstruction of justice, in a rare corruption case in the city-state that saw a former transport minister jailed last year. Singapore-based billionaire Ong Beng Seng, 79, was charged in October last year with helping former transport minister S. Iswaran cover up evidence in a graft investigation. He was also accused of showering Iswaran with lavish gifts, including tickets to the 2017 Singapore Formula One Grand Prix, flights on a private jet, business class travel and a luxury hotel stay. Ong entered his guilty plea from a glass-encased dock at a district court in downtown Singapore on Monday. Prosecutors sought a two-month jail term after Ong agreed to plead guilty. He will be sentenced on August 15. But prosecutors also agreed with defence lawyers that the court could exercise 'judicial mercy' in view of Ong's poor health -- which could further reduce any sentence. Defence lawyers pleaded for clemency, saying their septuagenarian client suffered from a litany of serious ailments, including an incurable form of cancer. They asked for a 'stiff fine' instead of actual jail time. 'The risks to Mr. Ong's life increase dramatically in prison,' lawyer Cavinder Bull told the court, saying prison could not give his client sufficient care. 'This man is living on the edge,' Bull added. The Attorney General's Chambers said in a statement that after 'considering the medical evidence before the Court', the prosecutors did not object to imposing a fine instead of jail time. The trial of Malaysia-born Ong had attracted significant media attention due to his links with Iswaran and the affluent city-state's reputation as one of the world's least corrupt nations. Ong owns Singapore-based Hotel Properties Limited and is the rights holder to the Singapore Grand Prix Formula One race. He and Iswaran were instrumental in bringing the Formula One night race on a street circuit to Singapore in 2008. In July 2023, Ong was arrested as part of a graft probe involving Iswaran and was subsequently released on bail. In October last year, Iswaran was jailed for 12 months after he pleaded guilty to accepting illegal gifts worth more than Sg$400,000 ($310,000). He was also found guilty of obstructing justice, in the city-state's first political graft trial in nearly half a century. Iswaran completed his sentence on June 6. - AFP

JS-SEZ still poised for growth amid 19% tariff challenges
JOHOR BARU: The 19% revised tariff rate imposed by the United States on Malaysia will not deter the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) from attracting investments. State investment, trade, consumer affairs and human resources committee chairman Lee Ting Han said the revised tariff rate has put Malaysia on equal grounds to other regional countries, such as Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia and the Philippines. 'Generally, the 19% revised tariff rate is not that bad for our country, as most neighbouring countries have similar tariff rates, with some even higher than ours. The JS-SEZ is still in a good position to get more investors, especially foreign direct investments. 'Overall, it is still a delicate situation as we are adapting to the new rate, but with the close cooperation between Johor and the federal governments, we will continue to make the JS-SEZ grow,' he said when contacted. Lee said some sectors in Johor would be affected by the revised US tariff rate on Malaysian products, like furniture and rubber. He said the tariff rate would see prices of such products increase in the American market, with consumers there having to pay more. 'But there are several sectors that have been exempted from the US tariff. It includes semiconductors, electrical and electronic goods that support semiconductors, and data centres, which are service providers. These three sectors are growing in Johor and it will continue to grow for investors coming into the JS-SEZ,' he added. Lee said the state government would continue to focus on these three sectors, especially data centres and semiconductors. 'The other good news for the JS-SEZ is that Singapore has a much lower US tariff rate for its sectors, such as pharmaceutical products. 'We are looking at how we can complement each other and drive the JS-SEZ as the region's engine of growth,' he said. Meanwhile, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia's Faculty Management associate professor Dr L. Nanthakumar said the revised tariff rate should not be a major concern for both the state and federal governments to boost the JS-SEZ. 'What the government can do is to help investors within the JS-SEZ by introducing tax incentives to help them cushion the impact of the new tariff rate. 'A tax incentive can help lower our production cost to the American market while maintaining its quality and make it more affordable to consumers there,' he said. 'This will help ensure that our products are still in demand.'
