PETALING JAYA: The appointment of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief may go through Parliament, requiring a two-thirds majority and any termination must go through a special tribunal.

Besides these changes – which have long been called for by non-government and civil groups – MACC is set to form its own service commission.
