KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will scrutinise and study the proposal submitted by Transparency International Malaysia (TI-M) in efforts to combat corruption.
MACC, in a statement today, said the bid would involve any proposal linked to or under the jurisdiction of the agency so as to contribute to a better score for Malaysia in the future.
“MACC takes cognisance of the position and score of Malaysia in the 2020 Corruption Perception Index (CPI) as announced by TI-M yesterday,” said the statement.
The MACC also lauded the positive feedback on the 2020 CPI relating to the National Anti-Corruption Plan (NACP), enforcement of Section 17A of the MACC Act and investigation of high-profile cases currently underway.
