KUALA LUMPUR: Former Transport Minister Tan Sri Chan Kong Choy may take legal action against several media organisations for publishing reports which allegedly implicated him in the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) issue.
Chan, who is currently abroad, has instructed his lawyer to look into the matter. The development of PKFZ, covering some 400ha, opened up a can of worms when its costs rose from RM1.1bil to RM4.6bil.
“Tan Sri (Chan Kong Choy) is very upset with the unverified news reports,” a source close to Chan said yesterday.
“We believe that the intention of such reports is to create a rift between Tan Sri (Chan) and MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat so that supporters of Tan Sri (Chan) in the (MCA) party will be angry. This is in an attempt to turn away support from Ong,” the source claimed.
