PETALING JAYA: Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim today said that he would select a new Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner.

In a statement to the royal press office, Sultan Ibrahim said there was no need to politicise the matter.

He also said the post was important to ensure that MACC continues to function effectively as the nation’s main institution in combating corruption, misappropriation, and the abuse of power.

“I will decide who the best candidate is to lead MACC moving forward,” he said in the statement shared on Facebook.

The current MACC chief commissioner, Azam Baki, is due to complete his term on May 12. His contract has been extended three times since his initial appointment in March 2020, with one-year extensions granted in May 2023, May 2024, and May 2025.

Several parties, including former economy minister Rafizi Ramli, have urged the government not to extend Azam’s tenure, citing allegations reported in a Bloomberg report in February.
