Azam Baki’s third-term reappointment as MACC chief has drawn strong criticism from C4, Nurul Izzah, PAS and others, amid concerns over transparency, institutional independence, and ongoing investigations.

Giving us clarity is Pushpan Murugiah, CEO of the Center to Combat Corruption and Cronyism (C4).
