A consignment of Guibourtia wood bound for Vietnam and worth over RM9mil was stopped by the authorities
Customs officers conducted a check on the shipping container at the Tanjung Pelepas port and seized the illegal wood from Zambia.
Johor Customs director Datuk Mohammad Hamidan Maryani said any shipment would need an export permit from the exporting country.
“We found 115 pieces weighing about 30,580kg in the container.
The wood is worth 2.9 million dollars equivalent to about 30 million Kwacha. Our sources have confirmed to our Team of Analysts that the owners of the confiscated wood belongs to a group of “Politically exposed Persons”.
We want to see a picture of this branch not a pointless picture of some educated Zambian woman being fronted by the Boers so they can steal more money from your docile selves. 50 years after independence still being robbed by banks and networks
How can you have a bank called ABSA in Zambia. We have very useless leaders indeed.
You didn’t have problem with Barclays Bank in Zambia which British. No one will stop you from starting ABZA (Amalgamated Bank of Zambia)
ABSA – It can be Chik@l@ if it makes you feel better but the interest will be the same and you will be still ripped off with all profits making Boers richer
