Hosni Mubarak Lebih Kaya Dari Yang Terkaya Di Dunia.

SEBUAH rumah Presiden Hosni Mubarak berhampiran Terusan Suez di Mesir.

KAHERAH - Lebih kaya daripada pengasas bersama Microsoft, bilionair Bill Gates, malah manusia terkaya di dunia, Carlos Slim Helu pun tidak setanding dengannya.

Ketika Mesir terus dilanda konflik politik, Presiden negara itu, Hosni Mubarak dan keluarganya dilapor memiliki anggaran kekayaan mencecah AS$70 bilion (RM213 bilion) sepanjang tiga dekad era pemerintahannya.

Jumlah harta Presiden Mesir itu melebihi kekayaan Gates dari Amerika Syarikat (AS) dan Slim Helu dari Mexico, yang masing-masing memiliki aset AS$53 bilion (RM161 bilion) dan AS$54 bilion (RM163 bilion) pada tahun 2010, menurut senarai majalah Forbes.

Anggaran kekayaan Hosni juga hampir setanding dengan Keluaran Dalam Negara Kasar Guatemala, negara rantau Amerika Tengah yang bersempadan dengan Mexico.

Mengulas mengenai perkara tersebut, beberapa pakar kewangan Asia Barat berkata, sebahagian besar kekayaan Hosni, 82, disimpan di bank-bank Britain dan Switzerland.

Sebahagian lagi kata mereka, telah dilaburkan dalam sektor hartanah di London, New York, Los Angeles serta kawasan peranginan pesisir Laut Merah termasuk hotel-hotel di Sharm El Sheikh.

KEDIAMAN mewah enam tingkat berharga AS$13.6 juta (RM41.6 juta) milik anak Hosni, Gamal Mubarak di barat London.

Rangkaian berita ABC menyatakan, kebanyakan harta Hosni diperoleh menerusi kontrak usaha sama ketenteraan, yang bermula semasa beliau berkhidmat sebagai seorang pegawai Tentera Udara Mesir.

Semasa beliau memerintah Mesir, Hosni terus memperoleh pendapatan besar dipercayai melalui amalan rasuah dan penyelewengan wang rakyat di samping keuntungan pelaburan yang mencecah ratusan juta dolar.

Namun, kebanyakan harta itu didepositkan ke dalam beberapa akaun bank asing termasuk bank UBS dan Bank of Scotland atau dilabur dalam dalam sektor pembinaan seperti hotel.

Menurut laporan sebuah akhbar berbahasa Arab, Al Khabar pada tahun lalu, Hosni memiliki hartanah di Manhattan, New York dan di Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, AS.

Dua anak lelaki presiden berkenaan, Gamal dan Alaa, bertaraf bilionair dengan anggaran kekayaan kedua-duanya melebihi AS$25 juta (RM76 bilion).

Gamal turut memiliki dua kapal pesiaran mewah berharga sekitar AS$81 juta (RM248 juta).

Seorang profesor sains politik Universiti Princeton, AS, Amaney Jamal berkata, anggaran kekayaan Hosni adalah munasabah kerana rata-rata pemimpin rantau Teluk memiliki kekayaan mencecah AS$40 (RM122 bilion) atau lebih besar.

"Usaha sama perniagaan semasa beliau (Hosni) berkhidmat dalam tentera dan pentadbiran negara melonjakkan kekayaan peribadinya," kata profesor berkenaan.

Seorang lagi pakar politik Asia Barat, Christopher Davidson dari Universiti Durham, Britain, memberitahu, Hosni dan isterinya, Suzanne mengumpul harta menerusi usaha sama dengan para pelabur dan firma asing sejak beliau memegang jawatan tinggi dalam tentera Mesir.

Menurutnya, kebanyakan negara Teluk mewajibkan warga tempatan memiliki sehingga 51 peratus kepentingan dalam sesuatu projek usaha sama.

Mubarak’s net worth estimated at USD 40 to 70 billion: report

Egypt’s embattled President Hosni Mubarak’s and his family’s net worth is estimated to be between U.S. dollars 40 and 70 billion, a media report said.

The wealth of the Egypt’s first family was built largely from military contracts during his days as an air force officer; Mr. Mubarak eventually diversified his investments through his family when he became President in 1981, the ABC News quoted experts as saying.

The family’s net worth now ranges from U.S. dollars 40 to 70 billion, by some estimates, the report said.

Amaney Jamal, a political science professor at Princeton, said those estimates are comparable with the vast wealth of leaders in other Gulf countries.

"The business ventures from his military and government service accumulated to his personal wealth. There was a lot of corruption in this regime and stifling of public resources for personal gain," Ms. Jamal was quoted as saying.

Ms. Jamal said that Mr. Mubarak’s assets are most likely in banks outside of Egypt, possibly in the U.K. and Switzerland.

"This is the pattern of other Middle Eastern dictators so their wealth will not be taken during a transition. These leaders plan on this," she said.

Mr. Mubarak, his wife and two sons were able to also accumulate wealth through a number of business partnerships with foreigners, according to Christopher Davidson, professor of Middle East Politics at Durham University in the United Kingdom.

The Mubarak family owns properties in London, Paris, Madrid, Dubai, Washington, New York and Frankfurt, according to a report from IHS Global Insight.

Aladdin Elaasar, author of ‘The Last Pharaoh: Mubarak and the Uncertain Future of Egypt in the Obama Age’, said the Mubaraks own several residences in Egypt, some inherited from previous Presidents and the monarchy, and others he has built.

"He had a very lavish lifestyle with many homes around the country," said Mr. Elaasar, who estimates the family’s wealth is between US dollars 50 and 70 billion.
