PETALING JAYA: Political analysts and anti-corruption watch groups gave the National Audit Department (NAD) the thumbs up for its initiative to conduct direct audits on 2,000 government-linked companies (GLC) for greater efficacy and transparency.
Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) Centre for Policy Research director Assoc Prof Dr Azeem Fazwan Ahmad Farouk said the initiative is a move in the right direction as the companies have links with the government and are under heavy public scrutiny.
