Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is a government agency that looks into corruption in Malaysia. It was set up to investigate and punish corrupt actions in the government and businesses. It is based on successful agencies from Hong Kong and Australia.
Former Prime Minister Najib Razak faced serious charges from the MACC related to corruption.[1][2] Another former Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohamad, supported the MACC's efforts to fight corruption during his time in office.[3]
The MACC is led by Chief Commissioner Azam Baki.
