Find out the scandalous details of HRD Corp's questionable real estate deals and risky investments!

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and the Auditor-General (A-G) have unearthed alarming findings regarding the management of the Human Resources Development Corporation (HRD Corp). PAC revealed that HRD Corp engaged in dubious real estate deals and mismanaged levies collected from employers, amounting to RM205 million. The A-G's report exposed that HRD Corp amended key performance indicators without board approval and failed to adhere to good governance principles.

Furthermore, the PAC discovered that HRD Corp diverted funds meant for training grants into high-risk investments, leading to significant financial mismanagement. The A-G's report further highlighted suspicious disbursements of RM51.69 million for training grants, raising concerns about the corporation's financial practices. Amidst the chaos, calls have been made to transform HRD Corp into a statutory body to ensure more effective governance.

In a stunning revelation, HRD Corp was found to have used a total of RM3.77 billion in levies collected from employers for training purposes, shedding light on the magnitude of financial mismanagement within the organization. The PAC also flagged HRD Corp for engaging in questionable property deals, adding another layer of controversy to the corporation's actions.

As the investigations continue, it's evident that HRD Corp's operations have raised serious concerns among government bodies. It remains crucial for regulatory interventions to prevent further financial discrepancies and ensure accountability within the organization.
