MY SUPPORT TO MACC

I fully support the MACC’s actions, in collaboration with various enforcement agencies, financial institutions, the Securities Commission, Companies Commission, Registrar of Societies, and other relevant authorities, in taking action against high-profile individuals involved in large-scale corruption and money laundering.

MACC must remain impartial and courageous in carrying out its mandate. No one should be above the law, including those who attempt to rebrand themselves from “giver” to “whistleblower” to seek leniency. Justice must be consistent, transparent, and uncompromising. Strong and decisive enforcement builds investor confidence and reinforces national and institutional credibility.

I hope MACC will continue its mission without fear or favour, supported by strong political will, institutional integrity, and the trust of the public. Transparency and accountability are fundamental pillars of national resilience, governance stability, and sustainable development. Sustainable governance demands zero tolerance for systemic corruption.

Getting rich quickly through abuse of power is an injustice to ordinary people like us especially the general workers, drivers, junior clerks, office assistants and many more who earn a living through hard work, blood, sweat, and tears. Corruption is not merely a legal violation, it is a profound moral and societal failure that erodes trust and weakens social cohesion. True wealth should be built on integrity, innovation, and contribution not exploitation.
