KUALA LUMPUR, May 12 — A former company secretary of 1Malaysia Development Berhad today confirmed that she had never met former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to obtain his signature for decisions on the Finance Ministry-owned company, believing that he would not have entertained her anyway.
Decisions made by 1MDB such as for major financial deals or transactions had to be approved by the board of directors and its shareholder, with multiple documents shown in court previously where Najib signed on behalf of 1MDB’s shareholder on resolutions granting approvals for 1MDB decisions. “So Sime Darby Berhad has more than 10,000 shareholders, so there’s no way you can get all 10,000 shareholders to sign a written resolution,” she explained.I understand the process is different, but your role as company secretary in Sime Darby, it was your responsibility to do the legwork to obtain approval. But here in 1MDB, did it strike you as odd or unusual, you don’t have to be involved at all to deal with MOF?No, I didn’t see it as odd because the level is too high.
But Goh confirmed that she was never told by 1MDB individuals such as Shahrol or Zahid to go through the Bahagian MKD if she needed the shareholder’s signature on the 1MDB shareholder’s resolutions. Yesterday, Goh had told the High Court that she would prepare the directors’ circular resolutions that was regarding standard matters for 1MDB directors to sign to give their approval, and that she would then prepare the related 1MDB shareholder’s resolution to be given to Shahrol to be signed by Najib.
