When did Customs say PH took GST refund money, asks Guan Eng

Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng today questioned former prime minister Najib Razak’s understanding of the Custom Department’s statement on the RM19.4 billion deficit in the goods and services tax (GST) trust fund. He said nowhere in the statement had Customs director-general T Subromaniam linked the RM19.4 billion to Pakatan Harapan (PH) using the people’s money, as alleged by Najib. “I would like to ask our ex-prime minister whether, by reading Subromaniam’s statement, Customs said PH took the refund money,” he said at a press conference here. “Is he living in a bubble that he cannot understand simple statements like that, twisting it to claim his innocence?”
