ACA offers to review government procedures
SEGAMAT: The Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) has offered to help government departments and agencies review their work procedures to “shut the door” on opportunities for corrupt practice.
ACA director-general Datuk Seri Zulkipli Mat Noor said that certain departmental systems or work procedures were open to corruption and the agency could assist by reassessing the system.
Speaking to reporters after opening the Segamat ACA branch office yesterday, he said that besides embarking on punitive action, the ACA also emphasised the importance of community education to combat corruption.
The Segamat branch office is among nine new branch offices approved by the Government in 2002, said Zulkipli.
The others are Port Dickson, Kemaman, Bintulu, Seberang Prai, Sungai Petani, Temerloh, Teluk Intan and Kluang.
“We decided to set up an office here because the Batu Pahat office, which looked after Segamat, Labis, Kluang and Muar, was too far for the people here to visit,” he said.
