Corruption: The more things change…
— Qiu Yaofeng

OCT 8 — The deputy prime minister said at the weekend that Malaysia’s
gains in the Corruption Barometer (CB) over the previous two years
showed Putrajaya’s fight against graft was paying off.
Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin noted that 49 per cent of Malaysians polled
in 2011 by Transparency International (TI) thought that the government’s
efforts to stamp out corruption were “effective”, up from 28 per cent
in 2009.
But the Umno No. 2 conveniently forgot to mention that the proportion
of those who responded positively rose by only one percentage point
from 2010 to 2011.
So even if the poll were accepted at face value, this suggests
Barisan Nasional’s (BN) anti-graft campaign has hit a brick wall, at
least as far as the voting public is concerned.
But what is even more underwhelming is the fact that getting 49 per
cent of the respondents to say the government has made the right moves
is actually not an improvement at all.
That’s because in 2006 that proportion was almost the same at 45 per
cent. The year after that, it was markedly higher — 53 per cent.
Only 2009’s outlier result of 28 per cent makes it seem as though
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s administration has made great
strides in tackling graft. But really, we’ve just been spinning our
wheels.
Hardly something for BN to crow about, especially this close to elections.
