A boost to transparency, but caution advised


KUALA LUMPUR: A comprehensive study must be conducted before embarking on the move to appoint Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) representatives to the board of directors of government-linked companies (GLCs) and government-linked investment companies (GLICs), says Transparency International Malaysia.

Its president Dr Muhammad Mohan said the intention behind the move, announced by the Prime Minister at the congress’ delegates meeting yesterday, was good and would improve transparency and governance in those companies.
