CPI rise reflects reform push, says Anwar


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s rise in the global Corruption Percep­tions Index (CPI) rankings reflects the efforts of the Madani government to combat systemic corruption and correct weaknesses in the country’s governance structure, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The Prime Minister said the improvement in Malaysia’s rank from 57th position in 2024 to 54th in 2025 was driven by strict enfor­cement action by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, the police, the Inland Revenue Board and the Customs Department, among other measures.
