We must be proactive as corruption cases getting more complex, says MACC chief.  “The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief commissioner [Datuk Seri Azam Baki] said that while the MACC tries its best to be proactive in using the latest technologies, challenges remain when the offences involve different countries…‘There is fraud, financial statement manipulation to hide illegal proceeds, and a sharp increase in the usage of financial institutions outside Malaysia to facilitate the ill-gotten proceeds and others.’”
