KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): Two days after Pakatan Harapan captured Putrajaya on May 9, the top agenda of Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad under the new government was to eradicate corrupt practices in the country.

He said Pakatan was well aware of the corruption going under the previous administration especially political corruption which affected the process of democracy and development so much so civil servants were also ignoring the interests of the people.  The success of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in exposing many corruption cases involving “big fish” opened the eyes of Malaysians that the scourge of corruption should be completely eradicated at the highest levels,  including national leaders.
