Anti-Corruption: Is MADANI on the right track?

Raymon Ram, President, Transparency International (Malaysia)

Anti-Corruption: Is MADANI on the right track?

Malaysia’s fight against corruption remains one of the country’s most persistent political and institutional challenges. While the latest results from the Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index show Malaysia improving slightly to 52 points and ranking 54th globally, the broader picture remains complicated. Progress in rankings does not necessarily mean corruption has been meaningfully reduced, especially as major controversies continue to surface around powerful institutions, corporate interests, and the very bodies tasked with enforcing anti-corruption laws.
We speak to Raymon Ram, President, Transparency International Malaysia, about how the government is doing in its fight against corruption.
