TI-M said these KPIs will help provide clear guidance on government objectives and a means to assess ministerial performance.

“As they work towards meeting their KPIs, it is vital that their progress and achievements are reported to the rakyat in a timely and transparent manner.

“This ‘report card’ is in line with the unity government’s stated aim to be transparent, practice good governance, eradicate corruption, and demonstrate accountability,” TI-M said in a statement.

Accepting that the unity government will need time to identify and prioritise its commitments to the rakyat, the NGO urged the government to refer to the National Anti-Corruption Plan (NACP) which provides clear guidance and indicators on initiatives to improve governance and integrity practice at the national level.

“The culture of transparency and being accountable does not require any grace period. It should be practiced immediately.

“This is what the rakyat expects and our country needs to address its various challenges and reset itself,” it stated.

It also called for the removal of ministers and deputy ministers who failed to meet these standards of transparency and accountability.

Yesterday, Anwar issued a warning to all Cabinet members that anyone involved in bribery or misuse of power will be booted out immediately.

He said he would not compromise on such culture in the unity government that he leads.
