Letter to PM and CM of Sabah

Kong Yun Chee @ Joshua Kong, P O Box 11923, 88821 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. 012-8380897; 0178322388 (also WhatsApp); jknow823@gmail.com The Prime Minister of Malaysia. 2nd January, 2022 Putra Jaya, Kuala Lumpur The Chief Minister of Sabah, Administrative Office, Likas, Kota Kinabalu. Tuan Tuan YAB, RE: REWARD IN CONSIDERATION OF MY LOYAL SERVICE IN GOVERNMENT IN FEDERAL AUDIT DEPARTMENT 1969 to 1974 I am 73 years old and never have been given financial assistance and no pension for lack of enough years of service and now I am asking for adequate financial rewards based on my few years of very productive civil service which had a great sacrifice for me to perform such dedicated and loyal duty for the nation. My live has been split in 1980 when I returned to Sabah after qualifying as Chartered Accountant in London and had been in Sabah since 1980 contributing very much for the society at large incluiding lodging more than 40 Police Reports worth many trillions trying to save the nation from all sorts of major leakages including abuses of power and official corruption at all levels. What I want to specially mention in this letter is my stunning performance without proper training working as Examiner of Accounts in the Federal Audit Department serving sacrificially for the Federal and State Governments in the recovery of so much revenue especially in the Inland Revenue Department and Revenue sectors. My performance was stunning because I had raised so many audit queries in a few short years for a monthly salary of about RM400. I can estimate that I had sort of recovered RM25m in a few years and such recoveries can enhance subsequent years. The sums of RM25m in 50 years since 1970s can amount to at least RM500m considering compounding interest and doubling every ten years in value. I don’t think any Sabahan could do that. As I feel miserable that my effort had gone to waste instead of nation building as we know we in Sabah is so poor. So in appreciation of my effort I am not asking so much as RM500m. But I would appreciate if the Governments can jointly reward me with RM10m cash or 2% thereof. I also expect the State Government give me a long lease (30 years extendable) of the vacant valley in Luyang Kota Kinabalu behind the Pertanian Ministry. I will develop it for the benefit of society rather than it is idle land. I trust this is receiving your prompt attention. Yours faithfully, Joshua Y C Kong
