KUALA LUMPUR (May 6): Transparency International Malaysia (TI-Malaysia) is calling for the implementation of Section 17A of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009 in June 2020 as promised, to fight corruption involving business organisations.

In a statement, TI-Malaysia said that under Section 17A of the MACC Act, a commercial organisation can be found guilty if individuals involved with the organisation give or agree to give any form of bribes with the intention of enabling the business entity to profit from the transaction.
