Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has recently ordered the authorities including the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate the parties responsible for the losses incurred by the country due to corruption.

After attending the Malaysia Madani Aidilfitri programme @ Dataran Merdeka yesterday (May 13), Anwar said that apart from MACC, other agencies instructed include the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN), Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), and the Police Commercial Investigation Department (CID).

“We have to voice (corruption) but I can’t give instructions one by one but just a general instruction because there are people who are known to take bribes worth billions… It’s been decades and they are still safe as no one dares to touch them.”

“What does it mean to the country, for the power of the law we ask the police, LHDN, actions were against those at the bottom but those at the top and assets worth tens of billions of ringgit got away,” he added.

“That is why I am giving a general instruction and I hope the people regardless of party and race support this order,” stated Anwar.

This was all in a response after he was asked about the specific actions to track down parties involved in corruption cases following the statistics released by EMIR Research which revealed that Malaysia is estimated to have suffered a total loss of RM4.5 trillion in the past 26 years due to corruption and leakages.

“I have taken this as a very serious policy decision despite the attacks or attempts by groups, especially the rich – it’s alright to be rich but it is the corrupt, who have billions of assets, at home and abroad, who are hiding them, that’s why they seem to be garnering support to fight,” he said.

“I have taken a decision and is determined that Malaysia must be saved from these robbers and it requires a clear, firm political determination.”

“It’s not a matter of race, it’s not a matter of different religions, it’s a matter of character, it’s a matter of morals, it’s a matter of values. Even if it is being played up, I understand the problem and we want the people to understand and together attack and stop it (corruption),” he added.
