PUTRAJAYA: Police personnel with no misdeed need not worry about the soon-to-be set up Independent Police Complaints Misconduct Commission (IPCMC), says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
Police personnel with no misdeed need not worry about the soon-to-be set up Independent Police Complaints Misconduct Commission , says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.“The IPCMC will not only restore the image of the police; I’m confident the commission will also defend their welfare,” he said after chairing the Special Cabinet Committee on Anti-Corruption meeting yesterday.
On another matter, Dr Mahathir said the government was depending on the media to report positively on the economy and the country’s other achievements. “It is a good country to invest money in but great experts read in the press that Malaysia is very bad, as if we are going through a war.“Please report the truth, not fake news,” he said.
Dr Mahathir was responding to a wire report that global funds are bypassing the country in favour of other markets and that investors are losing patience. The Prime Minister, who was asked on whether the government would look into declassifying the May 13, 1969 racial riots official report, said that it would look into the calls.
