PARLIAMENT | A BN lawmaker has questioned if there are any possible strings attached to Japan's guarantee of the RM7.3 billion Samurai bond issued to Malaysia earlier this month.

Debating the royal decree at Dewan Rakyat today, Tajuddin Abdul Rahman (BN-Pasir Salak) raised this concern, claiming that Japan is not a country known for its generosity.
