KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit ended lower against the US dollar, mirroring the trend of other Asian currencies, after stronger-than-expected US nonfarm payrolls (NFP) data for September suggested the US economy was avoiding a recession and on course for a soft landing, an analyst said.
KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has described the commitment to cleaning up systemic corruption and ensuring good governance as the key pillars of the unity government's achievements since taking over the country's administration in November 2022.
The Prime Minister also noted the introduction of the Fiscal Responsibility Act as a major step towards increasing transparency and ensuring accountability within the government. "We have to move on. It is a coalition, but the principles have been made clear – no tolerance for corruption and abuse of power – and the focus is on economic development," he said.
When asked about the decision to drop corruption charges faced by his deputy, Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, Anwar clarified that the decision was made by the Attorney General and not him personally.Anwar also gave assurance that large-scale corruption cases are still being pursued and that his administration remains committed to stamping out corruption.
Anwar also reiterated his journey from political imprisonment to becoming the country's leader, acknowledging that his experiences have deepened his resolve to fight for human rights and justice. "Yes, the Sedition Act involves the sultans and the rulers in this country. Even the Constitution provides that protection," he said.
