Legal Framework Governing Bribery & Corruption In Malaysia

Gordon-Smith J in his judgement¹ has intimated that bribery and corruption of officialdom is like a cancer which may grow and destroy the whole body. Like Caesar's wife, officials (including Judges) must be above suspicion and lack of confidence in this respect strikes at the whole foundation of good Government.²

It is indeed a serious and infectious disease that needs to be curbed at all costs as it has always been living with us and the humankind has been continuously fighting against this immoral and unethical crime.
