Sarawak PKR chairperson Baru Bian said the state MACC should act honestly and transparently and to not take reports lodged lightly.

Baru, who is also the works minister, said the Pakatan Harapan government is serious in its agenda to eliminate corruption in the country and is emphasising integrity, transparency and openness in all aspects of the government.

“I believe and hope that with the changes being made by the Harapan government in the MACC structure, there’ll be more arrests and prosecution.

“Not only against the small-time offenders, but the big ones will also be investigated and be prosecuted,” he said at a dinner organised by Sarawak Harapan yesterday.

He also called on the Harapan component parties to continue their systematic work in preparing for the 12th Sarawak state election, to be held by mid-2021.

“This time, we are confident of taking over the Sarawak government from GPS,” he added.
