MISC is fully committed to the highest standards of integrity and accountability throughout our businesses and operations.

PETALING JAYA: A non-governmental organisation has urged the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate news portal The Malaysian Insight (TMI), alleging that there are irregularities in terms of its funding.

“We want MACC to investigate whether the money received by TMI was through corruption or if there is a possibility that the money received from overseas is part of an agenda,” Jaringan Melayu Malaysia (JMM) president Datuk Azwanddin Hamzah said on Friday after lodging a report at the MACC's headquarters in Putrajaya.
