KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has lost an estimated RM277bil due to corruption between 2018 and 2023, roughly RM55bil annually, based on GDP estimates, says Tan Sri Azam Baki.
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner also cited a 2023 study by Emir Research, which estimated that Malaysia lost up to RM4.5 trillion between 1997 and 2022 due to various forms of leakages and misappropriation.
