Provide more clarity on anti-corruption reforms, World Bank tells govt - superadmin - 05-19-2021 PETALING JAYA: The World Bank wants more clarity from the Perikatan Nasional-led (PN) government on its anti-corruption and governance reform efforts, especially on the initiatives started by the previous administration. It noted that the actions taken by the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government during its two years in office had boosted Malaysia’s ratings in global surveys of corruption perceptions. The World Bank said the collapse of the PH government in March 2020 had resulted in uncertainty as to whether the anti-corruption reform momentum would be sustained. In a report today, it said the new government had signalled that it is committed to carrying forward these reforms. “However, these plans are not clear yet,” the World Bank said. “It is of critical importance for Malaysia to review the regulations of all its statutory bodies, develop clear regulatory and oversight bodies that will oversee corporate governance, and drive political governance and anti-party hopping laws which caused the fall of the federal government and some state governments.” - More -
