CHANGE OF GUARD: C4 CENTER’S– NEW LEADERSHIP 

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

New year greetings from us at C4 Center.

As the new year beckons, and with a new government in place for more than a month now, C4 Center hopes that civil society will remain focused and pursue much-needed reforms to combat corruption with strength, perseverance and good strategies.

As Malaysia looks forward with new hope, the Board of Directors of C4 Center would like to announce that:

1. Cynthia Gabriel is stepping down as Executive Director after seven (7) productive years at the helm. She will remain as Founding Director and continue as a member of the Board of Directors. She will serve as a Senior Advisor and help C4 Center set direction and policies.

2. Pushpan Murugiah, a former corporate executive trained in the discipline of Law, will assume the role of Acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

3. Sudhagaran Stanley, Programme Manager at C4 Center, will take on the role of Deputy Chief Executive Officer. 

We trust the new leadership will uphold the credibility and reputation that C4 Center has built over the last seven years and will seek to raise anti-corruption efforts in Malaysia in the coming years. 

We thank Cynthia Gabriel for her remarkable contributions to combat corruption and wish her well in her new endeavours. We would also hope that all civil society partners will continue to work with and support C4 Center under this new leadership.

 On to a productive 2023.
