GLCs are not ATMs for political parties, says Bersih

PETALING JAYA: Government-linked companies (GLCs) exist to safeguard and grow the country’s wealth, and do not serve as political parties’ automated teller machines (ATMs), says an election watchdog.

The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0) called out Perikatan Nasional chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s offer of political appointments to GLCs after securing a majority in the six state polls, saying it was an affront to good governance.
