PENANG is aiming for a 40% drop in corruption cases involving civil servants in both state and federal agencies this year, said state secretary Datuk Seri Farizan Darus.

He said out of the total 325 cases reported in Penang last year, 115 were related to civil servants while the balance involved workers from the private sector.
