Former Umno division leader Khairuddin Abu Hassan has urged the chief commissioner of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, Dzulkifli Ahmad, to make a public apology and retract the MACC statement congratulating Umno for its 71st anniversary.
Khairuddin, who is also a Parti Generasi Baru leader, described the move by the MACC to issue such a statement as “stupid, unethical and immoral”.
He said: “You must be seen to be neutral in the public's eyes and the chief commissioner should not be making such a political statement.
“The MACC should be seen and remain neutral. Hence, the statement today in congratulating Umno, is it a political speech? This affects the integrity of a body like the MACC in the eyes of the people”...
