KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 1 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will step up efforts to combat corruption, leakages and abuse of power by enhancing operational capacity, strengthening forensic investigations, recovering assets, and implementing preventive measures.
Its Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said this is in line with the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) tabled by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim yesterday, which emphasised the need to strengthen governance, integrity and accountability.
He said the commission is also focusing on integrity education within society to instil such values and nurture principled, resilient citizens.
“MACC understands the people’s expectations and will carry out this trust to the best of our ability to make Malaysia corruption-free, thereby strengthening the national economy.
“We also stand firmly with the government and the people to realise the aspirations of 13MP so that the country’s socioeconomic development remains sustainable and benefits the people fairly and equitably,” he said in a statement today.
