LETTER | Stand up against corruption
LETTER | Today marks the annual International Anti-Corruption Day - designated as such by the United Nations General Assembly following its adoption of the United Nations Convention against Corruption - to raise awareness of the costs and detrimental effects of corruption, as well as the role of the UNCAC in combating and preventing it.
Malaysia became a signatory to the UNCAC on Dec 9, 2003. However, just a few weeks ago, Malaysia scored a mere 45% and received a D rating in the Government Defence Integrity Index for 2020 released by Transparency International Malaysia.
