Robert Kuok Not DAP’s Sugar Daddy, Guan Eng Insists MALAYSIA TODAY Feb 26, 2018 By MT Webmaster (MMO) – DAP did not receive any contributions from Malaysian billionaire Tan Sri Robert Kuok, secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said today. The Penang lawmaker said there were no records of any donations from either Kuok or his nephew, James Kuok. “As the top leader in DAP, I did not know at all that Robert Kuok donated to DAP. Show proof that we received funds from him, I want to know where is the money,” an upset Lim said in a press conference at his office today. He condemned Umno, Barisan Nasional (BN) and “BN newspapers” for playing up what he described as racist, extremist and baseless attack against DAP and Kuok. “Robert Kuok is one Malaysian we should be proud of for his success outside of Malaysia and yet he was faced with these baseless attacks,” he said. He reiterated that DAP has no financial ties or any direct connections with Kuok. Lim accused the ruling coalition of spreading lies against a 90-year-old Malaysian tycoon and creating racial hatred. He was commenting on allegations by controversial blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin that DAP was being financed by Kuok through his nephew as proxy. James Kuok had also recently issued a statement denying the allegation, saying he has no financial relations with the DAP. Yesterday, Lim’s father and DAP’s Gelang Patah MP Lim Kit Siang also denied receiving any funds from Kuok. Guan Eng said the fact that there are pictures of him sitting on the same table as Kuok in an event did not mean DAP is receiving funding from the latter. “I’ve also sat on the same table with Najib, what does not mean then?” he said, referring to the Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
