00:00 Putrajaya must halt the sale of Malaysia Airport's Holdings Burhud shares to Global Infrastructure

00:07 Partners, an entity owned by New York City-based investment firm BlackRock.

00:14 Perikatan Nationals' Wan Ahmad Faisal Wan Ahmad Kamal said this is because the firm

00:18 allegedly funds genocide against Palestinians.

00:23 The Bersatu youth chief said the sale is scheduled to take place despite Transport Minister Lok

00:28 Siu Fook's initial denial.

00:31 He also questioned if the government is being pressured to sell MAHB shares following the

00:35 recent visit of a top US Treasury representative to Kuala Lumpur.

00:41 Wan Faisal, who is also the chairman of PN's Foreign Affairs Committee, joins the chorus

00:46 of civil society organisations who are urging the government to reconsider its decision

00:51 to allow a company with alleged links to Israel to own shares in MAHB.

00:57 They said that although GIP and the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority will own only 30% of

01:03 the consortium, it nevertheless allows BlackRock entry into the management and ownership of

01:09 39 airports in Malaysia.
