Speaking to reporters after chairing today’s Cabinet meeting on traffic congestion, Loke said he had met Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Azam Baki on Tuesday for nearly an hour.

“We had a good discussion. He updated me on the cases that have not been completed.

“I have asked the ministry’s secretary-general to ensure that all pending cases are immediately acted on and reported back to MACC,” he said.

Loke said disciplinary action will be taken on these pending cases as soon as possible, and his ministry will fully cooperate with MACC.

Last week, Azam reportedly said MACC was still waiting for government agencies to follow up on more than 500 reports of misconduct, some submitted 12 years ago.

Most of these reports involved the police, followed by JPJ.

On Wednesday, chief secretary Zuki Ali said the public services department (JPA) was also taking action over the reports which were ignored, with a special JPA committee formed to investigate some of these cases.
