Calls For More Transparency Within MACC

The Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Tan Sri Azam Baki has revealed that he willingly gave his brother permission to buy shares using his trading account, but that he did not benefit from the stocks. First, we look at calls for the Securities Commission to conduct a full investigation on MACC Chief Tan Sri Azam Baki. Then, we talk about the repercussions this case might have on how the public perceives MACC.
