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. END

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.
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.
