It is entirely right, of course, for the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), Royal Malaysia Police, Attorney General and the judiciary to identify, prosecute and judge those who have engaged in corruption. And it is commendable that these institutions have made some progress – for it is still ongoing – in relation to 1MBD.
