KUALA LUMPUR: Amid Malaysia’s high-profile raids in recent months by its anti-graft busters as part of the country’s most extensive crackdown on corporate corruption, one has flown under the radar but stirred disquiet within the country’s clubby corporate and banking circles.
A mid-air collision between two Malaysian military helicopters that killed all 10 people on board was caused by crew error, the country’s navy said on Thursday.
Apple plans to open its first store in Malaysia next month, the company said Wednesday, underscoring a bigger push into the Asia region beyond China.

KUALA LUMPUR -- Malaysia plans to train 60,000 high-skilled local semiconductor engineers to help the country achieve its ambition of becoming a global chip hub, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced Tuesday.
Anwar said Malaysia aimed to secure at least 500 billion ringgit (US$106 billion) in fresh semiconductor investments under a new National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS).

But the opposition and civil society groups say Anwar and his administration had failed to back up tough words with actions, after a consortium that includes UK-based Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) – bought by BlackRock in January – announced on May 15 a voluntary offer to acquire all shares of Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB).
