PETALING JAYA: Economist and former civil servant Ramon Navaratnam has questioned Perikatan Nasional’s commitment to fighting corruption in the civil service, saying it has shown no political will to do so after being in power for more than a year.

Commenting on the recent crackdowns on syndicates in the civil service, he said it was time for structural changes in the public sector, but this required radical reforms.

He said the rising national deficit and debts and political instability were taking Malaysia to a tipping point and the country would be in serious trouble if nothing was done immediately.

Navaratnam was once deputy secretary-general of the treasury and he has also been head of Transparency International-Malaysia.
