The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) seized RM550,000 (US$123,000) worth of cash in various foreign currencies including British Pounds, Euros and Singapore Dollars, from a residence in Subang Jaya.
Malaysia’s constitution is dysfunctional. Corruption is deeply rooted in Malaysian culture and can only be removed by enacting a constitution that is in sync with the times. The term of office of the Prime Minister should be limited to one year, and the term of office of MPs should not be extended. The heads of the legislative, executive, judicial and procuratorial branches should be elected in alternating years, and 1/4 of all MPs should face election each year. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
