Zahid's DNAA strengthens need for fundamental reforms, says Subang MP

The Subang MP said the bottom line is to ensure laws are passed in Parliament allowing independent bodies such as the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and Attorney General (AG) to function without political influence.
