Stunned by political developments in Sabah, the Center to Combat Corruption and Cronyism (C4 Center) called on the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to immediately investigate allegations that elected representatives were offered millions of ringgit to switch allegiances.
C4 Center is disturbed by several Sabah elected representatives claiming harassment and being offered millions of ringgit to shift their alliance from current Chief Minister Shafie Apdal to his rival, former chief minister Musa Aman.
This is certainly a matter serious enough to warrant an immediate investigation by the MACC. The trend of offering elected representatives money and positions to buy over their loyalty is a threat to our country’s democratic principles. It is unhealthy and disgusting.
