The kopi-o tasted great, until the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) showed up. Bernama reports that over in East Malaysia, the commission has detained 14 people, including three Road Transport Department (JPJ) officers, to facilitate investigations into the ‘sale’ of driving licences in Sarawak.
The suspects, aged between 19 and 50, were picked up in a special operation carried out over the past week in Limbang, Miri, Bintulu and Sibu. According to state MACC director Datuk Badrul Shah Norman, those detained comprise three JPJ officers, nine members of the public who wished to obtain a driving licence as well as two individuals acting as ‘middle-men’.
“Initial MACC investigations have indicated that bribes were given to obtain licences to drive vehicles of various classes, without taking a driving test. It has been estimated that a price of between RM2,500 to RM2,800 was paid for each licence, according to the class of vehicle being applied for,” he said.
He said that the parties were found trying to obtain the licences by submitting false documents to change Brunei driving licences into Malaysian ones.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Buta huruf, pay USD100.
Your director general knows who are doing this but he keep quiet because he makes noise, they will overthrow his job.
The people in JPJ doing this is a big group. They are also selling road tax for large cc cars. It is a big syndicate within the JPJ itself. Nobody can touch them because they all “share profit”
This is like PDRM. They make sure all “share profit”. So, nobody blows the whistle.
MACC will do their drama and prosecute one or two officers but the syndicate will remain. They have been there over 20 years. Each director general knew or knows abut this inside syndicate.
But like Al Capone, nobody can touch the JPJ
Tangkap, kata buat wayang.
Tak tangkap, kata makan gaji.
Apa lagi u mau?
I will keep quiet when they start getting the big fishes.
2.6B pergi mana?
Klau u ada bukti korupsi, bagilah pada MACC. Buatpe u troll kat sini?
john. u need to understand ONE thing. MACC only have power to investigate but NOT prosecute. Investigation is nothing if cannot bring it to the court of law.
john is a typical low class malay. blindfolded and cannot see a bigger picture
jangan la, diorang pun nak cari makan juga
john john aka DonkeyKong. Semua dapat free dalam hidup pun mahu bising banyak
i guarantee u jpj will be stafless if they really go by the law..
What? they just realised it?
Those who reprint original roadtaxes to clone cars are still at large. As is those who print cheap roadtax for large capacity cars and those who illegally transfer idle car grants with nice number plates.
I imagine the interrogation wight go along something like this:
MACC: Why do you sell these licences?
Corrupted JPJ: Didn’t Ahmad Maslan said we need two incomes, apa lagi you mau?
saya pon mau cari makan…..
Bini saya mau tiga, saya mau pi holiday, mau beli handset baru, mau enjoy life, mau pakai branded items…So duit gaji govt mana cukup, bang??
This is the kind of post you don’t expect to see DonkeyKong. Because it relates to his beloved master.
