Khairy needs more time to read all 279 pages in pendrive

Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin needs some time to read all the documents contained in a pendrive given to him by Tunku Mahkota of Johor, Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim.

The pendrive contains a report on alleged incidents of corrupt practices in the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM).

"There are 279 pages of that report in the pendrive given to me on Friday. I had some free time on Saturday and Sunday but I still had some programmes. I had FitMalaysia on Saturday and another event in the evening.

"I only started reading it in detail last night. I could not finish all 279 pages in one night. You have to give me a little more time to read the documents. I will inform you what the next move is."

The minister declined to say more to reporters who asked him about the pendrive handed over to him by Tunku Ismail.

Earlier, Khairy launched the HSN21KM driven by Proton marathon event at his ministry here, today.

The HSN21KM would be a marquee event at this year's National Sports Day celebration which will be held on Oct 8 at Dataran Merdeka.

The Johor Southern Tigers Facebook said Tunku Ismail had handed over the pendrive which contained information on leakages and FAM misconduct to Khairy.

Tunku Ismail, who is also owner of Johor Darul Ta'zim Football Club (JDT), decided to hand over the pendrive as he did not want any problems with the FAM.
