Businessman loses over RM2.2mil in separate scams just months apart
KUANTAN: A businessman lost over RM2.2mil in separate scams just months apart this year, after falling for fake investment schemes advertised on Facebook. Pahang police chief Comm Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman said that in May, the 45-year-old man was lured by a scheme and contacted an individual via WhatsApp. He then made 18 transactions totaling RM1.86 million to six bank accounts between May 14 and July 15, 2025. "The victim received a return of over RM20,000, which convinced him to continue investing. However, last Tuesday, he was asked to make an additional RM88,000 payment for a 'fast withdrawal' process. "He refused, and checks via the Semak Mule portal revealed the bank accounts involved had criminal records," he said in a statement Thursday (July 24). Comm Yahaya added that previously, the victim fell for a similar scam, losing RM440,000 through 13 transactions between February and May this year. "In this case, he did not receive any returns and was instead asked to pay a 20 percent 'tax' to withdraw the funds. He refused after suspecting it was a scam. "As a result, the businessman lost over RM2.2 million, comprising his savings and money borrowed from friends," he said. He added that the victim lodged a police report at the Maran police headquarters on Wednesday (July 23), and the case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. - Bernama

LPNM director-general Mohd Khairuzamri M Saleh revealed the data during the official launch of the 'Program Hari Bertemu Pelanggan & Penyampaian Bantuan Insentif Projek LPNM Negeri Sarawak Tahun 2025' at the Sarawak State Farmers' Organisation hall here today. 'Sarawak has now emerged as one of the most progressive states in the development of the national pineapple industry. Based on 2024 data, the Land of the Hornbills ranks second after Johor in terms of pineapple cultivation area nationwide, with a total of 2,199.43 hectares. 'This shows that the target of 20,000 hectares of pineapple cultivation by 2030 is not just a vision, but a movement that is now beginning to bear fruit,' he said. Mohd Khairuzamri said that LPNM remains committed to supporting pineapple growers in the state through a comprehensive assistance package. 'Starting with the provision of planting materials such as MD2, Moris, and SG1, quality agricultural inputs, farm infrastructure, as well as technical services and monitoring, all these are offered as a comprehensive package to support our farmers in Sarawak in achieving a more stable income—reaching RM8,000 per month by 2025—in line with the Sarawak Post Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS 2030),' he added. More than 200 participants from various backgrounds, including government agency representatives, pineapple entrepreneurs and interested growers, attended the event. 'This Customer Engagement Day is a strategic initiative to strengthen relationships and cooperation among various stakeholders in the pineapple industry — from farm operators, researchers, producers, and processors to exporters — with LPNM as the agency fully responsible for safeguarding the interests of the national pineapple industry. 'More than 200 individuals from diverse backgrounds are present today. This includes representatives from government agencies, pineapple entrepreneurs, and participants interested in tropical fruit cultivation. 'This is clear evidence that Malaysia's pineapple industry is gaining attention and recognition here in Sarawak,' said Mohd Khairuzamri. He added that the programme serves as a platform for exchanging knowledge, ideas, and solutions to current challenges such as food security, market competitiveness, climate change, and technological hurdles. 'Today, LPNM clients have the opportunity to engage directly with our officers, including those from our headquarters as well as the Sarawak state team,' he added. The event also featured the official launch of the e-Pineapple System by Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Food Industry, Commodities and Regional Development (M-Ficord) Datu Sirai Daha, who represented Food Industry, Commodities and Regional Development Minister Dato Sri Dr Stephen Rundi Utom. 'The strong support from the Sarawak government is greatly appreciated and acts as a catalyst for us to advance the industry further,' said Mohd Khairuzamri. Throughout the day, several activities were held, including a stakeholder engagement session between LPNM and pineapple entrepreneurs, and an exhibition involving various agencies and companies such as Agrobank, Kolej ICATS, ACM Sdn Bhd, Queen Pineapple, Evergreen, and award-winning young entrepreneur Mohd Nasry Mohd Nasir, recipient of the Pro Tani Young Entrepreneur Award during the recent National Pineapple Day celebration. Mohd Khairuzamri expressed appreciation to the Sarawak government and all attendees for their support. 'Thank you for being part of this event. Stay with LPNM as we work together to build a brighter future for the pineapple industry in Sarawak,' he said.

Manufacturers face RM1bil loss if Sept 15 holiday not formalised: FMM
KUALA LUMPUR: Manufacturers may suffer up to RM1 billion in losses if the government does not promptly formalise the Sept 15 public holiday, the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM) cautioned as it pressed for immediate gazettement. Yesterday, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim declared that Sept 15 would be observed as a public holiday in conjunction with Malaysia Day, with the Human Resources Ministry stating that employers must comply. However, FMM said official confirmation via a gazette notification under the Holidays Act 1951 was still pending. "This is critical to provide legal clarity and enable businesses to plan operations, workforce scheduling, and ensure compliance with the Employment Act 1955," the federation said in a statement. FMM president Tan Sri Soh Thian Lai said last-minute declarations of public holidays disrupt tightly scheduled production timelines, export commitments and labour shifts, particularly in sectors that rely on continuous operations. "Declaring Monday, Sept 15, as a holiday effectively creates a four-day disruption for many manufacturers, covering Saturday through Tuesday for shift-based and continuous operations. Such interruptions require production lines to stop and restart, which is both costly and inefficient," he said. FMM estimated that each additional unplanned public holiday could result in up to RM1 billion in productivity and output losses for manufacturers. The impact is especially severe for export-driven industries and those with continuous production lines, such as steel, food processing and chemicals. Small and medium-sized enterprises, in particular, would struggle to absorb the added costs or manage overtime and replacement shifts, the group added. "Frequent ad hoc holiday declarations do not augur well for a country striving to achieve high-income nation status and position itself as a competitive, reliable, and attractive destination for investment," it added. FMM stressed the importance of policy clarity, consistency, certainty and credibility, noting that abrupt decisions could erode investor confidence and weaken Malaysia's standing in global supply chains. While acknowledging the spirit behind the Malaysia Day celebration, the federation called on the government to expedite the official gazettement, providing immediate legal certainty and enabling businesses to mitigate operational risks effectively.
