Stop leakages, eradicate corruption, Islamic NGO tells govt

PETALING JAYA: An Islamic NGO has urged the government to prevent all the leakages and corruption affecting the nation’s coffers.

Pertubuhan Ikram Malaysia (Ikram) said issues such as the rising cost of living, food security and the need to increase the overnight policy rates (OPR), were indicative of weaknesses in the country’s economic system.

“The government must ensure that all forms of assistance and incentives for the rakyat reach the target groups and are not misappropriated. This can be done by increasing the efficiency of the delivery system.

“Putrajaya must also enhance its oversight of the country’s financial management to eradicate leakages and corruption,” Ikram economic prosperity cluster head Abdul Hamid said in a statement.
