The Launch of the National Anti-Corruption Strategies 2024-2028 in Putrajaya
In a significant move towards enhancing governance and integrity in public administration and government-related companies, the Malaysian government is all set to launch the National Anti-Corruption Strategies 2024-2028 (NACS). The event is scheduled to take place at the prestigious Putrajaya International Convention Centre on May 7, with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim officiating the ceremony.
Importance of NACS
The NACS is set to replace the National Anti-Corruption Plan (NACP) 2019-2023, with a focus on developing a national anti-corruption strategy in alignment with the United Nations Convention Against Corruption. This initiative aims to strengthen Malaysia’s stance against corruption and improve its reputation on the global front.
Main Strategies of NACS
The new strategies under NACS are centered around five key pillars: education, public accountability, people’s voices, enforcement, and incentives. These pillars are designed to create a comprehensive framework for combating corruption at all levels of governance and administration.
High-Level Attendance
The launch ceremony is expected to be graced by Deputy Prime Ministers, Cabinet ministers, Chief Secretary to the Government, ministry secretaries-general, state government secretaries, and chiefs of government-linked companies. This demonstrates the government’s commitment to prioritizing anti-corruption efforts at the highest levels of leadership.
Monitoring Mechanism
To ensure the effective implementation of NACS, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will establish a robust monitoring mechanism through its National Governance Planning Division. Regular monitoring and evaluation reports will be presented at National Governance Special Cabinet Committee meetings, chaired by the Prime Minister, for validation before submission to the Cabinet and Parliament.
Call for Cooperation
MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki has expressed optimism that all stakeholders will collaborate to ensure the successful execution of NACS over the next five years. The goal is to align with the national aspiration of building Malaysia Madani, a vision of a prosperous and corruption-free Malaysia.
As the launch date draws near, anticipation is high for the unveiling of the NACS and the beginning of a new chapter in Malaysia’s fight against corruption. With a comprehensive strategy in place and strong commitment from all parties involved, the country is poised to make significant strides towards a more transparent and accountable governance system.
