DAP 'graftbusters' to combat corruption - NST

PETALING JAYA, Wed: April 23, 2008 by Regina Lee

Calling themselves “graftbusters”, DAP has come up with its own task force to combat corruption. Its leaders are inviting the public to inform them of any corruption or malpractice in the civil service, local councils and police.

The team is spearheaded by DAP MPs - Tony Pua (Petaling Jaya Utara), Gobind Singh Deo (Puchong), Lim Lip Eng (Segambut) and Lau Weng San, Kampung Tunku assemblyman, along with other lawyers from the party.

“Send us an e-mail along with some form of evidence and we will forward it to the right authorities and follow up on it,” pledged Lim at the party Damansara service centre here today.

He also invited the public to lodge complaints with them if there were any alleged corruption with the state governments, past and present included. They are also willing to accept complaints against Pakatan Rakyat state governments in five states comprising DAP, Parti Keadilan Rakyat and Pas.

“We have gone to great lengths to ensure that the coalition remains clean and graft-free, so we would welcome scrutiny even more from the people,” Pua said.

Complaints and information can be sent to graftbuster@gmail.com.
