BY: James Warwick

INTRODUCTION:

Business & social environment in today era, are most important factors that could affect the
company. Social factors such as belief, practices and behaviour could be a factor for the company
having a great leap of success business or a downfall for the Company. This key factor will represent
the condition state of some business towards public. This report will summarize one of popular cases
in Malaysia which name as 1MDB Scandal. This company were jeopardized by its top management
using their wrong behaviours towards the company.

What is 1MDB:

1MDB or call as 1Malaysia Development Berhad are functioning as a company who


promoting development future of Malaysia through foreign investment and partnership. 1MDB
company were established in 2009.This company were developing a strategic initiative towards
Malaysia economic for long term development. Most of the fund will invest into energy resource,
real estate, tourism, and agriculture business. Most of the fund were invest on the skyscraper
project which name as Tun Razak Exchange or Kuala Lumpur International Financial District (KLFID).
Tun Razak Exchange were built for international finance and business.

What happen to 1MDB:

Since it was established, the company were firstly been audited for financial performance
under auditor official secret Act 1972 by National Security Council. When the new Prime Minister of
Malaysia for 14th General Election step up in 2018, the Prime Minister want the declassification of
the report and been reviewed by new Minister of Finance. The company was insolvent and unable to
repay debts.

Who was involved in 1MDB scandal:

The company from top management were been target as Chairman of 1MDB, Prime Minister
of 13th, Dato’ Sri Najib Razak which one of the culprit of the scandal. Other than that, his wife, Datin
Sri Rosmah Mansor, were also been guilty on money laundering case but she refuse and pleaded as
not guilty. Lastly, The mastermind of the this scandal are Jho Low which found guilty and still running
from Malaysia. Last location that been know were Jho Low was in China.

How the timeline 1MDB till expose:

Law that Act on 1MDB:

All the money that were disappear which using for money laundering will categorize on
Section 4(1) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful
Activities Act 2001 (AMLATFPUAA). Since the chairman is the Prime Minister of Malaysia 13 th, the
law that been act as Section 23 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009
which been using his power to do wrong things.
Effect of 1MDB Scandal:

Based on my point of view, there are such more effects towards the company and country of
Malaysia. The company were been trusted to invest on development for Malaysia but the top
management were doing opposite of the job that were supposed to run. This company developing a
bond towards investor from around the world. Losing trust and satisfaction of investor will lead a
trust issues towards other company in Malaysia. This will make the company harder to develop and
make profit from investor. (investor)

Looking into the internal organization, the employee might have rough decision to work
inside the company. This wrong practice will make the innocent employee could lead to disaster in
their work fields. The employee try to do a good practices in work without doing a wrong things.
Most of the employee’s religion in the company are from Islam where their practices during work
are being truthful and honest but the company were doing wrong things. When the employee
talking about the wrong things on anyone else beside the company’s employees, it could be their
last day of their job and could be lose of fund for their family. (employee)
