Hampir dua bulan sudah berlalu sejak kenyataan Pengerusi Lembaga Tabung Haji Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim pada 9 Mei 2015 bahawa tanah seluas 0.66 hektar di Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) yang telah dibeli daripada 1MDB telah menerima tiga tawaran pembeli yang berminat. Pada waktu itu, Abdul Azeez telah berkata bahawa:
"Salah satu pihak telah menawarkan RM188.5 juta, harga yang dibayar Tabung Haji untuk membeli tanah daripada 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), but with an additional profit of RM5 million."
("One potential buyer has offered RM188.5 million, the price Tabung Haji paid to purchase the land from 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), but with an additional profit of RM5 million.")
Abdul Azeez juga berkata bahawa satu keputusan akan dibuat dalam masa dua minggu, sekitar 23 Mei.
Namun sehingga hari ini, rakyat Malaysia belum lagi diberi gambaran jelas apa sebenarnya yang akan berlaku kepada pelaburan ini.
Atau apakah sudah berlaku U-turn dalam keputusan lembaga? Jika ya, rakyat Malaysia wajib diberi penjelasan kenapa Abdul Azeez boleh berkata satu keputusan tentang pembeli akan dibuat sekitar hujung bulan Mei.
Lembaga Tabung Haji wajib perjelas isu ini; Rakyat, terutama mereka yang menabung dengan Tabung Haji untuk menunaikan ibadah haji, mahukan penjelasan.
Jangan kamu berani permainkan Rakyat.

PRESS STATEMENT
WHEN WILL TABUNG HAJI NAME BUYER FOR TRX LAND?
It has been almost two months since the 9 May 2015 statement made by Lembaga Tabung Haji Chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, that the 0.66 hectare piece of land in the Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) which it had purchased from 1MDB has received three offers from interested buyers. At that time, Abdul Azeez had claimed that:
"One potential buyer has offered RM188.5 million, the price Tabung Haji paid to purchase the land from 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), but with an additional profit of RM5 million."
Abdul Azeez also claimed that a decision would be made within two weeks, which is around 23 May.
Yet until today, the Malaysian public has yet to be given a clearer picture as to what will happen to this piece of investment.
Or has there been a U-turn in the board's decision? If so, the public demands a clarification as to why Abdul Azeez was so bold as to announce that a decision on the buyer would be made by end-May.
Lembaga Tabung Haji must come clean on this issue; the Rakyat, especially those who have saved their hard-earned money with the pilgrimage fund to go for the hajj, demands it.
Don't you dare make a fool of the Rakyat.
