Drawing the line on whistleblowers


KUALA LUMPUR: Amendments to the Whistleblower Protection Act 2010 will be tabled in the Dewan Rakyat next year to clearly distinguish genuine whistleblowers from criminals seeking to hide behind the law, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said the amendments are crucial to close loopholes that could be exploited, particularly by corrupt individuals or hardened criminals who cooperate with the authorities to evade legal action.
