KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 29 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today said that the Tabung Haji assets that were handed over to a special purpose vehicle (SPV) under the Ministry of Finance (MoF) will be returned to the Tabung Haji board.

Anwar, who is also the finance minister, said that the move comes as Tabung Haji, which manages the Haj pilgrimage fund, has overcome its previous financial challenges and is now under more efficient management. “I told you from the beginning when I took over this position, once Tabung Haji is being well managed, then the MoF will start discussions to hand over all the assets that are currently entrusted to the SPV to Tabung Haji,” he said during the launch of Tabung Haji’s 60th anniversary celebration here, today.
