Malaysia’s inspector general of police declares low corruption rate in force
KUALA LUMPUR - Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar announced Wednesday that only one per cent of the the 120,000-strong Royal Malaysian Police were 'corrupt or involved in immoral activities'.
Although he said the number was small, Ismail was quoted by Bernama saying that the number could spread like cancer if left unchecked.
The Royal Malaysian Police also claimed that public confidence in the police regarding bribery has increased by around five per cent, according to a survey by the police and the National Key Result Area (NKRA).
Ismail has an ambition to achieve zero per cent corruption in the police force, something he considered as possible given the low numbers reported by the survey.
The police is frequently perceived by members of the Malaysian public as being susceptible to bribery. Users on social networking sites responded to the announcement with skepticism about the one per cent claim made by Ismail.

I would say that only 1% of Malaysian population believes that only 1% of Malaysian police are corrupt. ;-)
