Malaysia's MACC Adopts Anti-Corruption Strategies from Top Countries to Boost CPI Ranking
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is adopting strategies from top-performing countries like Denmark and Norway to enhance Malaysia's Corruption Perception Index (CPI) ranking. MACC's long-term vision is to place Malaysia among the world's top 25 CPI countries by fostering integrity awareness nationwide, starting at the grassroots level.
MACC is strengthening its anti-corruption education approach at the community level. Rather than merely informing about corruption offences, the programme focuses on character building to instil moral and ethical values in the younger generation. The goal is to cultivate a society with strong integrity, not just because they are exposed to corruption.
To engage communities effectively, MACC is elevating cultural arts like dikir barat. This traditional Malay art form will be promoted not only in Kelantan but also nationally. By using such programmes, MACC aims to unite communities and deliver anti-corruption messages creatively.
MACC is committed to implementing these strategies in Malaysia, starting with a concrete plan to emulate successful anti-corruption educational approaches from Denmark and Norway. By fostering integrity awareness and utilising cultural arts, MACC seeks to make Malaysia a top 25 country in the CPI rankings.
