Instilling anti-graft value in youths


Madiha says youths can spread the anti-graft message via social media.

SOME 300 youths between the ages of 18 and 30 were arrested for various offences by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) between 2020 and June this year.

“Although the numbers are not that significant compared to the total, I want to highlight that even youths as young as 18 are involved in bribery,” said MACC deputy chief commissioner (Prevention) Datuk Seri Norazlan Mohd Razali at the closing ceremony of the Konvensyen Mahasiswa AntiRasuah (KoMaWar) and the Speak Up Competition at Universiti Malaya (UM).
