KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 14 (Bernama) -- Coordination between the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and other enforcement agencies will continue to be strengthened to ensure the forfeiture and disposal of immovable assets, such as buildings and land, can be carried out more efficiently.
MACC Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said that initiatives such as the MACC Chief Commissioners’ Roundtable Conference, held today, serve as key platforms to foster closer cooperation between the agencies involved.
“Each agency has its procedures in this process and is responsible for ensuring smooth implementation.
“MACC places great emphasis on collaboration and synergy between public and private agencies to enhance the asset forfeiture mechanism,” he said during the conference.
Azam stressed that the forfeiture and disposal of immovable assets is vital to prevent criminals from enjoying the proceeds of their illegal activities, sending a clear message that crime does not pay.
Also present were MACC Deputy Chief Commissioner (Operations) Datuk Seri Ahmad Khusairi Yahaya, Bukit Aman Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department (JSJN) Director Datuk Hussein Omar Khan and the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) Director-General (Enforcement) Datuk Azman Adam.
