The Umno president, replying to his lawyer Datuk Ahmad Zaidi Zainal on the first day of his defence trial on Wednesday , added:"After I was charged, I was unable to give any more aid."The court also heard that most of YAB's funding in the early days following its inception came from Ahmad Zahid's own pocket, a mix of his salary and savings.
At one point in his corporate career in the 1990s, the former deputy prime minister said he earned RM120,000 monthly and only spent between RM30,000 and RM40,000 for himself and his family. "After the charity work of YAB became known to others from 2013, the foundation began to receive contributions from my friends such as Gen Tan Sri Mohamed Hashim Mohd Ali , businessmen Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary, Tan Sri Halim Saad and Tan Sri Ahmad Johan," Ahmad Zahid said.
The funds from YAB were not only channelled to charity work in his constituency but also used for charity work overseas such as building a mosque in Yunan, China and renovating a 400-year-old mosque in a Malay village in Cape Town, South Africa .
Charity work ? You mean renewal of insurance and road tax ? Okay
Apa takut kalau betul cara kau buat ikut law dah ikhlas, In Syaa Allah pahala berjalan.
