PUTRAJAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is finalising the list of ministries based on their placing in terms of corruption and abuse of power, which will be announced by the end of November.

MACC deputy chief commissioner (prevention) Shamsun Baharin Mohd Jamil said the list had yet to be submitted to the agency’s chief commissioner Dzulkifli Ahmad.

“The list has been completed by a committee of experts but has yet to be submitted to the chief commissioner,” he said in his speech at the corruption-free pledge (IBR) event by employees of the federal territories ministry here today.

According to previous reports, the list to be announced by MACC comprises the 10 most problematic ministries and five cleanest in terms of corruption and abuse of power.

Shamsun Baharin said the federal territories ministry was the 18th to sign the IBR and that MACC hoped all 25 ministries and the Selangor state government would sign the pledge by the end of this year.

“All state governments have signed the IBR pledge except Selangor,” he said.

A total of 320 ministry employees, led by its secretary-general Adnan Md Ikhsan, signed the pledge today.

Also present was Deputy Federal Territories Minister Loga Bala Mohan.
