SEREMBAN: State governments should set up their own ombudsman system to help authorities effectively fight corruption and better manage public complaints, says Tan Sri Abu Kassim Mohamed (pic).
The National Governance, Integrity, and Anti-Corruption Centre (GIACC) director-general said although a Bill on the establishment of an ombudsman will likely be tabled in Parliament in November, the legislation will only have jurisdiction over federal departments and agencies and not those in the states.
