PETALING JAYA, April 12 Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh today said that reforming political financing in the country should be a priority, especially to address the frequent instances of defections by MPs from one party to another.
The former deputy women, family and community development minister said this must be done in order to combat political corruption in Malaysia.
PETALING JAYA: The Centre to Combat Corruption & Cronyism (C4) has called for an investigation into allegations that more than US$16mil (about RM65mil) linked to 1MDB was found in company accounts belonging to the husband of Bank Negara s former governor Tan Sri Zeti Akthtar Aziz (

The C4 said that Bank Negara s integrity could be compromised if there was any truth to the allegations which could further weaken the people s trust in local institutions and authority. The C4 calls for immediate answers and further investigation into the matter and for the parties involved to come clean. Accountability must be the cornerstone of every administration and such discoveries make it difficult for the people to overcome the trust deficit toward the administration and institution, it said in a statement on Tuesday (March 2).
