Alleged mismanagement: LCS audit implicates Najib’s associate

In defending his administration's management of the scandal-plagued littoral combat ship (LCS) project, former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak had repeatedly stressed the contract was not awarded to a crony company.

He said the project was given to Boustead’s subsidiaries owned by the Armed Forces Pensions Fund (LTAT), which the former premier claimed as his "crony" in the same way the rakyat is.
