Is DANAHARTA a saviour or robber? How many pieces of property have DANAHARTA taken by force at way below market prices just to be sold to 'middlemen' at even lower prices so that they can make a huge profit. You will be surprised to discover how many millionaires and billionaires are created through DANAHARTA.

Dear Sirs,

RE: DISCUSSIONS ON SETTLEMENT ON MARINARA

I refer to your faxed letter dated 20th July 2009 with regards to the discussions on Marinara..

We are very disappointed that the discussions between us have come to nothing. If you had told me that you had already made up your mind on the matter I would not have bothered to discuss the matter at all. 

1. Regretfully I do not agree with your contention that “MARINARA has been successfully sold and transferred to the new owner, Danaharta Hartanah Sdn Bhd”. It is a subsidiary of Danaharta and fully owned by Danaharta Nasional Bhd and also controlled by you. Clearly it is conflict of interest.The principal of both these companies is the Minister of Finance.
 
2. A sale of the property to one of Danaharta’s subsidiaries does not constitute a proper sale as Danaharta  are only custodians of the property which has to be returned to the rightful owner as soon as the shareholders are able to repay the sum owing. It was never the intention of the Danaharta Act to make profit in this manner. As such any surplus on a sale  should be returned to the owners. According to Danaharta’s Board decision made in 2002 it was decided as a matter of policy that there shall no longer be any sale to Danaharta’s subsidiaries but only direct sale to buyers be made as the chances of getting a higher sale price was found to be better.

3. The Danaharta Act clearly states the functions upon taking over a company to which you have not complied. You are supposed to act in the best interests of the shareholders but instead you have acted contrary to the Act. Selling well below the market value is also against decided cases and the Courts will frown on your action in doing so. You are well aware there are two  Court cases pending which has been fixed for trial. We are unable to withhold the legal actions at this stage and will leave it to the lawyers how best to handle these matters.

4. Your claim that we still owe you a sum of RM41.2 million is ridiculous. The fact that Danaharta bought both MARINA SDN BHD and PEKELILING TRIANGLE SDN BHD for only RM35 million should have some bearing on what you are claiming from us. You yourself stated that ” being a Government organization you should not be making profit” is certainly contrary to what you are saying in your letter.

5. Please bear in mind that Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd’s loans were NOT A NON-PERFORMING LOAN at the time of vesting in Danaharta. As such the wrongful freezing of the accounts and the Project would result in our claiming for Liquidated and Ascertained Damages calculated at RM47,000 per day multiplied by 8 years would result in approximately RM 137 million payable by Danaharta and or it’s agents to all Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd’s shareholders.

6. The alleged sale price of RM171million ( objected to by the shareholders right from the beginning) decided on private negotiations between you and the “Receiver” was exceptionally low as the market value by then was RM430 million as at that time the services were all functioning and rented out. There was sabotage and manipulation in the three “tenders”.

7. We deny that we still owe a further sum of RM41.2 million to you. Danaharta. purchased all the assets of Marina Sdn Bhd and Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd for only RM35 million. At the time of acquisition by Danaharta the total sum owing by Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd was only 59 million (37 million principal and RM22 million interest). As it was NOT A NON-PERFORMING LOAN  Danaharta cannot now charge any further interest during the period when Danaharta wrongly took over and froze all the assets since 2001 and refused to allow us to sell the building, contrary to the Loan Documents.
 
8. MARINA SDN BHD had completed the building at a cost of RM25 million and obtained the Certificate of Completion. In February 2006 a Sale and Purchase Agreement between Marina Sdn Bhd and Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd  was made whereby the building was sold to Marina Sdn Bhd. The sum of RM25 million was agreed to be the deposit to be paid to Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd as a consideration and were accepted by all the shareholders and Directors. You were informed at the meeting we had with you at your office in February 2006 and copies of the Agreement were sent to you and your lawyers. Marina Sdn Bhd was at all times willing and able to pay the balance owing to Danaharta and informed you of the intended redemption.

9. MARINA SDN BHD went to great effort to rent out the building to Embassies and Diplomats and high profile businesses and was already getting a good income. Without justification you instructed the “Receiver” Duar Tuan Kiat of Ernst & Young  to cut the Electricity and water knowing there were tenants in the building, and instructed them to take  out an Injunction against me knowing very well I had to be at the building to complete the final touches requested by DBKL for the issuance of the final Certificate of Completion. You even rang and threatened DBKL not to issue the Certificate of Completion.

10. The closing down of the building has caused irredeemable damage to the mechanical and electrical fittings and great loss and humiliation to the shareholders. The guards chased out all the tenants including the diplomats, Embassies and occupants without giving them due notice. Marina Sdn Bhd incurred great losses, damages and humiliation.

11. Your proposal of refurbishing the building at a budget of RM100 million is a sheer waste of good money as there is nothing wrong with the building or design done by a Gold Star Architect Dato Baharuddin Kassim. What you have to rectify is the damage and losses caused by the security guards in cutting the electric cables and stealing the electrical fittings and assets and jamming the electrical devices and lifts. They were employed as agent for Danaharta on your instructions. These should be rectified immediately

As such my counter proposal is that :

A) You  accept the  redemption sum of RM59 million as settlement . In consideration of that we are willing to waive claims of the LAD incurred for freezing the project for the last 8 years and to withdraw all legal actions.

b) To allow the shareholders to sell the building on an ‘as is basis” immediately as we already have ready buyers

I trust you will consider my proposal seriously and give an affirmative reply within one week from date hereof.

Thank you. WASSALAM.

Yours faithfully,

Hajjah Marina Yusoff,
for and on behalf of all the Directors and shareholders
of Pekeliling Triangle Sdn Bhd


c.c.1. Miinister of Finance I

Hello Hajjah Marina,

Too bad you couldn't save the building. I know you tried very hard to turn it around, but still no takers. I wonder if it was because of your past political affiliation. UMNO will not give you business, I suppose. You can't expect GLCs or UMNO-linked companies to take up office space in the building. There are vultures out there waiting to snap up this building and make millions for themselves. Let them have it lah. Come back to the PR fold and help us build a better Malaysia.

Best regards

They were gunning for her right from the Semangat 46 days, and that's what got her company into trouble in the first place. Not to mention her big blady mouth. But then she is also a recipient of the NEP largesse, an overnight millionaire. That she completed the building for RM 25 million is really remarkable and a sign of an astute and mindful developer.

This is a fine example of malays killing malays.

Let it out Taufique, show us more.

Based on the above, we can conclude :-
a) Only UMNO malays are allowed to be rich in Malaysia.
b) Mukhriz, the MP, was the first recipient of danaharta, by letting Danaharta take over Tongkah Hldgs and its huge debt, releiving him of any debt burden way back in 1999. If you are UMNO, danaharta will take over your debt and pass it over to the tax payers.
c) Marina build the building only because Anwar Ibrahim(Then Finance Minister) helped her in getting the banks to finance the project. (To be confirmed as it could be rumours only) after she re-joined UMNO.
d) Marina made a pact with banks to buy over my late fathers land, which was under mortgage cheaply, on which part of MARINARA now stands. So as they say- KARMA.

While I was driving to work today I heard the most hilarious news being aired on our local radio station,topic was that the Ugandan government was asking the Malaysian government's expertise in combating corruption.I laughed so loud the driver's of the car passing by me we looking at me with astonishment.This statement was proudly announce by our DPM,it reminded me the proverb" blind leading the blind ".The Ugandan's government hit the jackpot about learning about corruption,not about combating it but learning how to sweep it under the carpet.
The BN government have a long list of project that they can use as a training platform for the Uganda's.....Perwaja,PKNZ,MAS... and the list goes on and on.
Its nice to know the BN government have become the jokers of the international community...at least they are making the public laugh.

Muhiddin just came out on TV last night with some African Nation delegates having a conference on corruption. He can speak as if we have little corruption, MACC was wonderful and giving advice on how to move forwards to these delegate. Someone pls tell the deaf and blind DPM that a gentleman has just been MURDERED in the MACC office.

Corruption is define as a exchange of favours that is out of the SOP. If so than MACC is also corrupted becoz they are receiving something from the Fed Govt in exchange for leniency towards the BN. BASTARDS!!!

Danaharta must have very good connections in UMNO. This whole country is being run by a Mafia called UMNO. Petronas made a profit of RM230,000,000,000 (230 billion) what happen to that money? The Mafia UMNO won't let anyone look at the accounting books of Petronas. The Mafia UMNO thinks that Petronas belongs to it, little does it know that it belongs to the rakyat. The Mafia UMNO is going to suck Malaysia dry unless we all stop these robberies. People should not just say I am all right so who cares, because all this money being robbed is your money.

Hajjah Marina,

You lost your building, BBMB crumbled, and we lost our jobs. I believe the beneficiaries of our sacrifices must have gone laughing to the banks as they evidently become billionaires and multi-millionaires soon after. Of course, being Non-Muslim, Vincent Tan would not understand dosa/pahala. But can we hear some comments from billionaire Azman Hashim and multi-millionaires Tajuddin Ramli, Halim Saad, Amin Shah & Ahmad Shah Safuan, who by the sound of their names are Muslims, about our respective roles in this unpardonable fraud ?

Another scandal by Danaharta was the sale of a public co Naluri Bhd by way of tender.Wan Malek submit the bid higher than what was submited by Atlan,the co owned by George Lim.The price different almost 100 millions.

Remenber,Naluri have a cash hoard almost 1 billion from the sales of Mas Shares back to govertment.Atlan was paying Danaharta only $400 million to gain control of Naluri with the cash almost 1 billion.Do You think this is not the scandal.

For the BN and its component race based parties, corruption is culture! UMNO has developed corruption into a refined and fine art - while being a very God fearing and religious party! The Africans are seeking advice - not to fight corruption - but to promote it! They have approached the right people! Malaysia Boleh!

As an ex banker I can also add to the fact that Danaharta actions have been less than transparent. Because they were given such ridiculous powers under the act that they can do anything they want and nobody can challenge them in court or anywhere else. This is another legacy left behind by Dr M (monster). Ask! why was the first MD of Danaharta quietly asked to resign? If only the MACC can check the banking accounts and assets of all Danaharta officers, they will not open a can of worms, we will have enough worms crawling out of every Ma;aysian ears. But with umno in power, no such hope lah. Just too bad, thats all I can say. We deserve the govt we put into power.

I just got back from my outstation trip. I shall do my best to gather the documents. Tomorrow 29th July, is the supposed "last" hearing of this danaharta case that's been hanging for the last 6 years or so.

I shall speak to my dad and gather all the necessary documents. Truly fed up of this nonsense. It is nowhere near the amounts thats stated in this article, merely a "paltry" sum of 6 digits, but which is owed to my family, which would mean a GREAT deal to my family, which would have MEANT a great deal. The money which we should have received, which we didnt receive, esp. when we needed it most for my mom's cancer medication, which we couldnt afford any longer. Blood money.

Raja Chulan, temenggong, educationist, - i will definitely do my part in collating what I can. Ultimately, what can be done with it I dont know. Right now, pray that my family wins in the court. I try to be optimistic, but luck as it is hasnt been on our side. The danaharta side keep twisting twisting twisting things and keep getting extensions from the court. Im not legally trained in any way, so I wouldnt know the exact terms to describe it.
