‘Expect complete confidentiality’


KUALA LUMPUR: Amendments will be made to the Whistleblowers Protection Act 2010 to ensure complete confidentiality of those providing information against corruption, particularly those involving high profile cases, says Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar (pic).

The move to amend the laws comes after weaknesses in existing laws resulted in an extremely low number of whistleblowers being protected for divulging information against corruption since it came into force a decade ago.
