PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has launched an investigation into the existence of a cartel involved in the distribution and supply of fertiliser contracts for rice paddies, valued at an estimated RM1.8bil, within an organisation under the control of a ministry.
The MACC conducted a series of raids over the past two days in the Kuala Lumpur area, including at the organisation's headquarters, the ministry, and nine companies awarded related projects.
