PETALING JAYA: Civil servants who report instances of corruption will receive an incentive equal to the amount offered in the bribe, says Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) deputy chief commissioner Datuk Shamsun Bahrin Mohd Jamil (pic).

"For example, an officer was offered a bribe of RM10,000 and he reports it to us – if the case goes through and the accused is charged, the officer would be granted a RM10,000 incentive which matches the bribe," he said.
