MALAYSIANS are demanding Prime Minister Najib Razak step up and be transparent about scandal-ridden 1MDB after the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) all but named him in a civil suit seeking the seizure of over US$1 billion worth of assets.
The amount is less than a third of the US$3.5 billion that it claims was misappropriated from the state- owned development fund and used to purchase luxury properties in the US and UK, a yacht, a Bombardier jet and paintings by Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet.
