Guinness World Record For Most Corruption Reports Submitted (Malaysia Boleh!)

UMNO looks set to enter the Guinness World Record Books For Most Corruption Cases Reported
PUTRAJAYA: The Umno disciplinary board has been asked to speed up its investigations into the 900 complaints of money politics it has received so that those found guilty would not be able to contest in the party polls next March.


Yeah! We have 900 complaints now!

Umno secretary-general Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor said this was decided in a recent meeting between himself, disciplinary board chairman Tan Sri Tengku Ahmad Rithaudeen and party president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.

“The President stressed to us that if possible, we should speed up the probes into these cases so that those found guilty of indulging in money politics would not be able to contest.

“Those who have been elected into their posts will have to step down or acquisce with the disciplinary board’s findings and directives,” he said, adding that the board was also working together with the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) on investigation into complaints of money politics received during the party’s division meetings.

In the last party polls, Tan Sri Mohd Isa Samad, the former Federal Territories Minister, had contested and won a vice-president post before being subsequently found guilty of money politics by the board. He was stripped of all his party posts.

Tengku Adnan was commenting on a statement by Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak that more than 900 complaints had been received so far.

Only In Malaysia A Suspected Criminal Can Be The ACA Chief!

It is now clear to all Malaysians why the Malaysian Anti-Corruption-Agency is so ineffective. They are being led by someone whom has run foul of the law before and one wonders how many of his staff are also involved in unlawful activities.

Malaysians are also bewildered how their beloved PM can be duped into hiring the present ACA Director General whom is now being investigated for corrupt practices. What a blow for Abdullah's so called "clean government". It gives new meaning to his so oft used clarion call: "Work with me, don't work for me".


From The Star, 04 March 2007 -

KUALA LUMPUR: Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said the action by former Sabah Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) director Mohamad Ramli Manan to openly allege that ACA director-general Datuk Seri Zulkipli Mat Noor was involved in corruption and abuse of power to the media was “not right.”

“My advice to him is come forward and cooperate with the police. I am not saying that his action was wrong as he is free to voice out but it is just not right,” he said.

Ramli, 56, who retired from the ACA last Dec 8, claimed that other than Zulkipli, he had also lodged reports of corrupt practices of several senior ACA officers.

He added that the report against Zulkipli was made in July 2006 under Section 107 of the Criminal Procedure Code that should lead to a police investigation.

Ramli said the reports of corruption and abuse of power against senior officers were made under the Corruption Prevention Act 1997 between 2003 and 2004.
