CAMERON HIGHLANDS: People who report instances of abuse or corruption to non-governmental organisations (NGOs) observing the parliamentary by-election here need to furnish more details for verification than just a screen-capture or photograph.

"We usually get the person who reported the incident to give more details, such as time and location, any further witnesses, so we can get the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate further," said Malaysia Corruption Watch (MCW) president Jais Abdul Karim.
