I APPRECIATE the comments made in the letter “Good governance the best way to fight corruption” (The Star; online at bit.ly/star_govern). I would like to add two further steps to strengthen the case for tighter corporate governance in Malaysia. > The approving committees within the government should comprise individuals who are independent of each other. To uphold independence and ensure efficiency, the Auditor-General should be a qualified accountant from outside the civil administration. I strongly believe changing these practices will strengthen corporate governance in Malaysia’s government administration.
