The weekly highlighted that lately, FELDA has been in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. FELDA made headlines when it purportedly offered a high price for a 37% stake in Indonesian plantation outfit PT Eagle High Plantations. Also, the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) nabbed five high-ranking FELDA personnel for alleged corruption involving a sturgeon fish-rearing project worth about US$100 million. The weekly in its analysis looks at all these negative vibes and questioned if the issues surrounding FELDA could weigh down BN and Najib’s popularity.
