There is surface mould forming on the MDF raw board next to the kitchen sink and no visible leaks. The MDF board is dry and looks normal after wiping the mould. I believe it is the sink undermount seal not done properly and moisture is seeping through. Can I just silicon the inside perimeters of the sink rather then resealing underneath the sink? Will that be sufficient to prevent moisture from getting to the MDF boards?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about sealing your sink.
Yes, you can seal the inside perimeter of the sink. I suggest looking at using https://www.bunnings.com.au/selleys-300g-clear-wet-area-waterproof-silicone-sealant_p1230999 to seal the gap.
