If the land had been spared from “greedy” people in power, Mr. Anwar, who also attended the launch, claimed all the money that had been lost to fraud could have been used to improve people’s lives.
Due to the political rivalries of Mr. Anwar’s in the late 1990s, the MACC is currently engaged in a fraud crackdown on well-known businesspeople and former politicians.
Former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad and businesspeople near to ex-finance minister Daim Zainuddin, who has been accused of failing to consider his property, are the subjects of an investigation.
The top has refuted allegations of political retribution, and he praised the MACC for continuing to work with impunity when it comes to identifying high-profile individuals who are suspected of abuse of power.
” The plague of problem cannot be taken lightly”, Mr Anwar. ” To overcome this, you need a very strong, dedicated, dedicated and courageous power. Powerful laws and regulations are required.
FINANCIAL CARROT
Mr Azam said the fresh national anti- problem technique emphasises integrity, transparency and accountability in areas like politics, open administration, government procurement, law enforcement and judiciary.
It has five major categories- education, public transparency, the people’s words, enforcement, and incentives- comprising 60 sub- categories that are targeted to be carried out from 2024 to 2028.
More than RM1 million were awarded as opportunities to civil workers who reported fraud crimes or provided related information, according to a local media channel’s TV3 report from March.
If the situation is investigated and leads to trial and conviction, legal workers who report an offence may receive an incentive equivalent to the amount they were offered as money, according to established rules.
How the authorities intends to use this program to reach the general public was not immediately known.
