KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has implemented targeted programmes involving government procurement, public funds/government allocations and enforcement sectors throughout this year to prevent corrupt practices.
MACC Community Education director Datuk Razim Mohd Noor said the programmes focused on issues such as cartels, leakage of government funds, violations of the law and inefficiencies in government revenue collection.
At the same time, he said MACC took the initiative to spread the anti-corruption message through formal and informal education in public and private higher education institutions as well as at the primary and secondary school levels in collaboration with the Education Ministry and the Higher Education Ministry.
"At the higher education level, it includes clubs such as the Anti-Corruption Student Force , the MACC Chief Commissioner’s Cup IPT Debate competition, the Anti-Corruption Student Convention, the Amar Convention and a series of dialogues between students and MACC officers," he said. Commenting on the public’s perception and effectiveness of the programmes that have been organised by the MACC, Razim said 92.9% of the 6,471 respondents comprising civil servants, students, private sector workers, members of the public and non-governmental organisations gave very positive feedback.
Razim said 93.8% of respondents were also of the view that all anti-corruption actions carried out by the MACC were very effective.
