KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 11 — The RM1.1 billion allocation to enhance the operational capabilities of law enforcement agencies, including the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), reflects the government’s strong commitment to combating crime, including corruption, and strengthening national governance.
In a statement yesterday, the MACC described this as evidence of the government’s recognition of the importance of empowering enforcement agencies to prevent and eradicate crime, bring criminals to justice, and recover assets for the nation.
According to the MACC, the government’s emphasis on drafting the Government-Owned Entities Bill to tighten the governance of entities entrusted with managing public funds and assets reflects a commitment that goes beyond merely combating abuse of power to actively strengthening governance.
