It is announced that senior MACC officers will be posted tp the Sabah Chief Minister’s office. That decision, even if attributed to MACC chief Latheefa Koya, who was present at an announcement ceremony, cannot have been taken without the approval of both the Chief Minister (who welcomed it) and Putrajaya.

Congratulations to all concerned though there is little public information abut the extent, if any, of official corruption in Sabah. On the other hand in neighbouring Sarawak blatant corruption, on a massive scale and reaching to the top of the tree has been going on untouched for at least forty years.

So why no such presence of the MACC at the top of the Sarawak State machine?. They might actually find it impossible to go on looking the other way! Not that this inactivity is attributable to the MACC at any level, local or national except for obedience to orders to leave Sarawak corruption strictly alone. Such an order would, of course, however obliquely delivered, be illegal. So to be obeyed it can only have come from the highest level. Time to rescind it!GOOD EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW
