SOME FACTORS INFLUENCING THE FALL IN THE INDEX

The openness and transparency of the government also contributed to the increased perception within society that the practice of corruption in this country was getting worse ; 3. Society today is more concerned over corruption issues. For example, many corruption cases are stated in various blogs. 58% of Malaysians are now "internet savvy" (SKMM study); 4. The increase in complaints/investigations/arrests shown in the media also affected the perception of the people about corruption in this country.

SOME FACTORS INFLUENCING THE RISE IN THE INDEX 1. The effects of the increase in fuel prices and the prices of essentials in general were not felt by the people yet when the field study was conducted: 2. Even though the crime rate in the nation was reported to have increased by 13% as a whole, the people felt that safety and well-being has improved. This is because most of the crimes are concentrated in big cities while the distribution of the respondents for this study is inclusive of those in the rural areas; MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
SOME FACTORS INFLUENCING THE RISE IN THE INDEX...cont.
3. The increase in number of policemen from 80,000
to 90,000 in 2007 also contributed towards a more positive perception towards safety in the people. This includes the existence of crime fighting programmes such as RAKAN COP, RELA, Rukun Tetangga, etc; 4. The role of the media and NGOs in exposing any weaknesses and shortcomings of the local authorities also led to the increase in the level of service of frontline agencies and contributing all at once to the increase in basic amenities and the people's quality of life.

SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
A
CORRUPTION ISSUES
The various levels of leadership and society must be given a better and complete understanding of corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. Campaigns via the print and electronic media must be actively pursued and expanded in order to increase the awareness and understanding of the people on the disgracefulness and evils of corruption.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
CORRUPTION ISSUES...cont.
Laws and existing regulations dealing with corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power must be re-examined to determine and correct weaknesses as soon as possible; Speeding up the tabling and approval of the Witness Protection Bill to encourage informers to come forward to make complaints about misconducts such as corruption and abuse of power without fear;
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
CORRUPTION ISSUES...cont.
Expediting as soon as possible the ratification of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) which was signed by Malaysia in 2004, but which still has not been ratified until today; and Programmes related to human development, identity, appreciation of pure values and religion must be increased to produce citizens who loathe corruption and malpractice.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
B
QUALITY OF PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY
• Training founded on strengthening integrity and personality development must be conducted continuously; • The public delivery system, especially that related to counter services and basic services provided by the Local Authorities (SLR) must be improved;
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
QUALITY OF PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY
3.
Clients' charter has to be complied with fully by each ministry and department and monitored closely and continuously by the Department Heads; 4. Every Ministry/Department conducts ongoing customer satisfaction surveys to get feedback for improvements.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
C CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BUSINESS ETHICS
1. Encouraging more companies to create and use the Business Ethics Code and obey provisions contained in the Malaysian Code of Business Ethics; 2. Companies in this country need to be encouraged and given incentives to obtain standards certification. Through documentation and auditing, the quality of products and services offered can be improved.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BUSINESS ETHICS...cont.
3. The media is asked to give publicity to encourage more companies to come forward and give their contributions to society as part of their social responsibility towards the society and the country; 4. Consumers are given complete explanations about their rights as stated in the 1999 Consumers Protection Act.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BUSINESS ETHICS...cont.
5. PEMUDAH plays a more active role in improving cooperation between the private sector and the government through programmes which bring benefits to their members.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
D STRENGTH OF THE FAMILY INSTITUTION AND THE COMMUNITY
1. Encouraging family members to fully utilise public holidays and rest days (Saturday and Sunday) as family days; 2. Expanding the role of Headman, Village Head, the Village Safety and Development Commitee (JKKK), residents' associations and Parent Teacher Associations (PIBG) in the integrity agenda in a more comprehensive manner;
STRENGTH OF THE FAMILY INSTITUTION AND THE COMMUNITY...cont
3. The Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development and related agencies carry out family development programmes in a more active manner (programmes such as SMART START etc); 4. The functions of bodies such as RELA and Rukun Tetangga need to be evaluated and updated to be more effective in dealing with social problems in the community. Efforts towards the eradication of the drug scourge, crime, illegal immigrants (PATI) and neighborhood safety must be stressed;
ON THE STRENGTH OF THE FAMILY INSTITUTION AND THE COMMUNITY...cont
5. Parents must pay the most attention towards the development of their kids' personality and not rely solely on the teachers in this matter; 6. Encourage youngsters and the youth to join youth organisations. From 11.1 million youth in the nation in 2007, only 2 million are members of youth organisations.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
E THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE WELL-BEING OF SOCIETY
1. Creating more police stations, neighbourhood watch posts and community policing concepts to assist efforts in combating crime; 2. The government control and limit the reliance on foreign workers because the presence of foreign wokers and illegal immigrants (PATI) also contribute to the increase in crime;
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE WELL BEING OF SOCIETY...cont
3. The media needs to educate the people about integrity in various aspects, for eg: environmental pollution, road ethics, the evils of crime, the scourge of drugs, vandalisme, etc; and 4. The government also needs to more actively monitor the increase in the price of essentials to avoid businesses from manipulating market prices until they affect the well-being of the people especially the lower income groups.
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
F
COURTEOUSNES
1. Various agencies and levels of society helmed by KEKKWA need to improve the implementation of the courtesy programs in the courtesy campaigns to ensure that the society as a whole is more courteous and more friendly; 2. Hold more courtesy and integrity programmes at the grassroots level. 3. The media needs to play a bigger role in promoting the importance of practising courtesy, neighbourliness and community activities such as
gotong-royong and etc.

1. The 2007 Malaysian Corruption Perception Index is at 6.76 compared to the Corruption Perceptions Index of 5.10 in 2006. The situation is expected to improve in 2008 and be compatible with the government's development policies; 2. Continued transparency and improvements, including the announcement to make the Anti Corruption Agency a free commission will definitely improve confidence and cast off negative perceptions which exist in some quarters;
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
3. In general, the quality of public service in this country is good. Even then, public service delivery at the basic levels of service as provided by local authorities needs to be improved; 4. Improvements must be continuously made to shorten waiting time for services, decision making time among public servants and delivery of public service to the people in this country;
MALAYSIAN INSTITUTE OF INTEGRITY
‹#›
5. The National Integrity Perception Index will be calculated each year. The study for 2008 will begin in mid July 2008; and 6. IIM will also prepare the TARGET 2008 REPORT at the end of 2008 to evaluate the performance of the implementation of the National Integrity Plan (NIP), especially the performance of TARGET 2008 for the First Phase of the implementation of the NIP(2004-2008).
