PKR has today lodged a report relating to a slew of cases involving top politicians to test the newly-minted Malaysian Anti-Corruption Agency (MACC). Party supreme council member Badrul Hisham Shaharin submitted a stack of documents containing 60 pages to MACC's assistant investigation officer Hasrul Shahrin Abdul Yazid at the commission's headquarters in Putrajaya this morning...According to Badrul Hisham, among the cases in his report were those involving former Malacca chief minister Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik and former International Trade and Industry Minister Rafidah Aziz...MACC, created as of yesterday, replaces the much-criticised Anti-Corruption Agency, and is being promoted as having more independence and greater accountability..."The people are waiting to see if the MACC will act in the interests of the people or if the changes are just cosmetic," Badrul said...Badrul Hisham said he also lodged reports against Najib and the prime minister himself over money politics. (Malaysiakini: Graft cases against big guns lodged to test MACC). Will any action be taken since the power to prosecute is still in the hands of the attorney-general? I just can't wait for the result of this test, can you? Be patient. ;-)
