The MACC, Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission has confiscated millions in cash!
Man, you've got to be so evil to be stealing this much and blimey keep the stash of cash at home ... well, i guess there's no other way to keep it below the radar. 52M Ringgit of cash! It's unbelievable, never in the history of the country or even the world probably.
From the Star:
Two senior officials from the Sabah Water Department have been arrested following discovery of over 52M Ringgit of cash kept hidden in their homes and offices among others. On top of that the MACC has also confirmed the two's accounts with over 60M Ringgit have been frozen as part of the operation (this does not include cash overseas). A number of luxury vehicle and numerous designer handbags, jewelleries and luxury watches were also confiscated.
Goodness me. If such officers have managed to amass such a ridiculous amount of money, just imagine what could be the case should such evil act is also happening at much higher levels (i'm very sure it is). In the ranks below, there's no question it's happening in all corners ... sadly to say, it's rooting so deep down that the whole society is rotting to say the least. A friend who used to work in a Bank once told me about a colleague who picked up a phone and called someone to get him pay for his new car tyres. Clearly that someone had probably received help from this colleague of his on some bank facilities. It's crazy! Another businessman friend recently shared with me how such act is pretty much a deep-rooted culture in the government agencies that he'd always receive direct(!!) asks for kick-backs or signals prior to his projects getting approved or payments released.
Let's hope for the best for Malaysia. It's simply saddening that the country is turning more and more into a corrupt nation and society.
