Bank Rakyat became a full-fledged Islamic cooperative bank by the beginning of 2003, when it successfully converted its 1.1% conventional assets balance to comply with Syariah guidelines. Yet, alamak lah, its staff regularly failed to meet the honesty bench mark of Islamic requirements.
In 2014 Lim Kit Siang stated on the DAP website that Tan Sri Sabbaruddin [Chik] has just been sacked as Bank Rakyat Chairman by the Minister for Domestic Trade, Co-operative and Consumerism Datuk Seri Hasan Malek because Sabbarruddin and the bank’s board of directors refused to comply with the Minister’s directive to approve the settlement of a RM32 million loan without calculation of any interest, but on a 120 post-dated cheques to be cashed in by the bank over a 10-year period.
Apparently, the scandal of RM32 million interest-free loan might possibly have involved controversial businessman Deepak Jaikishan.
Wakakaka.
But much earlier, back in the 70's, Bank Rakyat staff had been also arrested and masuk lok-up for criminal acts, wakakaka.
What a notorious syariah-complaint bank. Podah!

Apparently there is a Very High tolerance for Corruption.
Corruption is practically a non-issue among most Muslims.
A minor matter compared to far more important concerns.
