Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s two sons - Mirzan and Mokhzani - are currently being investigated under the MACC Act 2009 and the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorist Financing and Proceeds from Illegal Activities Act 2001.
During their father's tenure as Malaysia's longest-serving Prime Minister, Mirzan and Mokhzani found themselves entangled in various business controversies. Questions arose on whether their business empires were established solely on merit or if they secured government contracts due to their father's influence.
In another episode of Kini Explainer, let's explore the considerable wealth amassed by Dr Mahathir's two sons and examine the controversies they faced during their father's administration.

I forgot which one of his sons, either Mirzan or Mokhzani. But 2 years after he graduated he was made Board of Director at an Oil & Gas company. Which is laughable. Even if you are a genius there is no way anybody could become a Board of Director with only 2 years working experience.

Some Mahathir's grandchildren were given home tuition by Wanda Jacobson who was formerly a Singaporean. She studued at a culinary school in Singapore called Shatec but came to Malaysia where this trained cook who cannot speak proper English became an English teacher and obtained Malaysian citizenship. She taught O'level Engliah for over a decade at several prominent International schools including SAYFOL and SRI KL. In 2018/2019, following a tip off by a parent, SRI KL discovered that Wanda Jacobson used forged qualifications to get the job. She was asked to resign but no charges were filed against her and the police did not take any action despite the fact that she taught thousands of children without any proper qualifications. She has now obtain some qualifications and runs a food stall at Hock Choon Supermarket at Jalan Ampang

ON MALAYSIA’S LANGKAWI ISLAND, LOCAL folklore tells the tale of Mahsuri, a maiden who lived there in the late 18th century. The story goes that she was engaged to a warrior, Wan Darus, who left Langkawi for battle, and in his absence, Mahsuri befriended a wandering minstrel. Upon returning from battle, Wan Darus accused Mahsuri of infidelity, something she vehemently denied. Mahsuri was tied to a tree for days while maintaining her innocence, but none of the islanders believed her. On the day of her execution, they tried many ways of killing her but nothing would puncture her skin. She finally told them to kill her with her father’s ceremonial keris, a type of dagger. When they stabbed her, white blood flowed from Mahsuri’s wound, signifying her innocence. With her final dying breath, Mahsuri cursed the island of Langkawi for seven generations. Following her death, the island suffered many hardships, leading the local people to believe in her curse. There is a museum built around her grave, and a room portraying the story in life-size scenes.
