Mahathir accused Australia of ignoring 1MDB evidence:Alex Turnbull revelations raise fresh questions about Turnbull Government's motives

by Ganesh Sahathevan

In May last year SBS reported:

Australia avoiding investigating Malaysian corruption scandal, says former PM Mahathir


Mahathir's accusation  takes new life, given the Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbuull's son Alex Turnbull's revelation:


post about me and 1MDB

Ganesh, hope all is well. I was wondering if you would take down those posts implying I somehow benefitted from 1MDB - I did not, quite the opposite in fact. I called out the insane pricing and bizzare structure at GS when the deal was done and got yelled at by compliance for casting doubt on the integrity of PFI, the group that did the deal. As a result I was "b tracked" and resigned. This will all come out in a book in September by Tom Wright at the WSJ. Cheers, Alex

Alex son of Malcolm Turnbull says he is a victim, not benefactor of Goldman Sachs 1MDB deals:Threatens legal action in Australia, while based in Singapore;raising questions about Turnbull and the judiciary

by Ganesh Sahathevan
The 1MDB saga continues  with this unexpected Linkedin email from Alex Turnbull, son of Malcolm Turnbull. Alex  Turnbull is based in Singapore ,and has threatened legal action in Australia against this writer. 
Alex started a hedge fund in Singapore after leaving Goldman Sachs.He has now revealed that he resigned his position at Goldman's for speaking out about 1MDB.
Be that all as it may, Alex prefers that I remove my 1MDB stories which mention him(which readers know will not happen),and has threatened legal action in Australia, despite his business and he being based in Singapore,and the readership of this blog being primarily in China,Malaysia, and other parts of South East Asia.
Singapore, which has some of the toughest defamation laws in the world would seem like a better place to commence legal proceedings, but the Turnbull's seem to prefer Australia.
The fact that Malcolm is currently PM and the family's choice of jurisdiction cannot be ignored.

    Hi Ganesh or we could move to a formal discussion about defamation law in Australia. Let me know. I am not going to do this in public to drive traffic to your site and cause a media circus.

    Alternately get in touch with Tom Wright and ask him.

    Why not you ask Tom and if you want to sue that is up to you.

    Ultimately I'm not the one making unfounded ridiculous accusations. If you don't want to do even the vaguest bit of research and then publish that's your problem legally speaking.
