The National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) is a continuation of the National Anti-Corruption Plan (NACP), which was first developed in 2019 as a comprehensive plan to integrate efforts in addressing issues related to governance, integrity, and anti-corruption.
The National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) will be developed as part of the decisions made during the 17th Special Cabinet Committee on Anti-Corruption Meeting (JKKMAR), which was presided over by the Hon. Prime Minister on July 6, 2023. This strategic move, is consistent with international standards, serves as a continuation of the NACP’s efforts to combat corruption effectively.
The development of the NACS will be focusing on fundamental issues such as the welfare of the people through the Malaysia MADANI agenda. With continuous and collective cooperation among all parties, including politicians, the public sector, private sector, and non-governmental organisations, the goals of the NACS can be achieved. This will provide comprehensive benefits not only at the national level but also internationally, aiming to institutionalize good governance, integrity, and anti-corruption efforts for the country’s success, genuinely felt by the people.
The NACS emphasises five (5) strategies that bolsters 60 sub strategies. Its implementation will be driven by 19 agencies. The five overarching strategies of the NACS are:
- Education
- Public Accountability
- Voice
- Enforcement
- Incentives
