YOURSAY | ‘Defending graft allegation is not the business of any prime minister.’

Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, if you don’t understand accounting and finance, please don’t comment.

If the government has been doing this all the time, then who are the beneficiaries? The government as a whole or certain members of the government? There is a difference.What nonsense is Mahathir talking about? This is not an offset. If it were, then AirAsia should get a discount. For example, if Airbus offers US$50 million in free spare parts or maintenance to the aircraft, then it’s all right. However, if it goes to another entity that's personally linked to the bosses but not to the company, then it’s corruption.

So both the minority shareholders and the IRB are the victims. The company shareholders lose by RM250 million. The top leaders of the company have since voluntarily stepped down from their positions for two months until the investigation is over. Let MACC do its job.Please do not teach Airbus the difference between bribery and offset. It is like you are teaching your grandfather to suck eggs.

Indeed, let MACC do its job to distinguish whether the offset is just a euphemism for a bribe, just like what a political donation is in former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak's trial.Mahathir, certainly offset is a legitimate business practice, but do you have to say anything instead of just leaving it to the investigators to come up with a clean bill of health?
