The government will launch the National Anti-Corruption Strategy 2024-2028, focusing on enhancing anti-corruption efforts to improve governance and integrity in public administration and government-linked companies, said Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki.
He mentioned that the NACS is a government initiative to develop a national anti-corruption strategy in line with Article 5 of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, which mandates all member countries, including Malaysia, to produce a document serving as the primary reference for national-level anti-corruption initiatives.
Azam stated that to ensure the effectiveness of implementing NACS, a comprehensive monitoring mechanism will be established by the MACC's Governance and Compliance Monitoring Bureau, where monitoring and evaluation reports will be presented at the National Governance Cabinet Special Committee chaired by the Prime Minister for endorsement before being submitted to Cabinet meetings and Parliament.
