Anthony Loke mengumumkan inisiatif pembaharuan Lesen Memandu Malaysia (LMM) pada Rabu.
PUTRAJAYA: The Transport Ministry is in the process of taking immediate action on the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) report on misconduct involving an agency staff member under the ministry, says Anthony Loke.
The Transport Minister said that he met MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki on Tuesday (May 16) to discuss unresolved disciplinary cases at his ministry.
As a result of the meeting, Loke said he instructed ministry secretary-general Datuk Jana Santhiran Muniayan to ensure that every disciplinary case is acted upon immediately and to report back to MACC.
When asked about the number of pending disciplinary cases, Loke said this was an internal matter and there were also cases which had been resolved but had not been reported to the MACC.
"The important thing is that we take action on whatever MACC recommends. That is my commitment to the MACC chief commissioner, that the ministry will cooperate fully. Cases where disciplinary action have not been taken will be followed up promptly.
He said this at a press conference after chairing the Technical Committee on Traffic Congestion meeting here on Friday (May 19).
It was reported earlier that Azam had disclosed that some government agencies ignored more than 500 reports of misconduct involving their staff, eventhough MACC had recommended action be taken, including the Road Transport Department (JPJ) and the police. – Bernama
