KUALA LUMPUR, July 6 — The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has formed a special investigation team to scrutinise documents provided by the Human Resources Ministry (MOHR) on issues involving the Human Resource Development Corporation (HRD Corp).

In a statement today, MACC deputy chief (operations) Datuk Seri Ahmad Khusairi Yahaya said information related to the Auditor-General’s Report on HRD Corp, received from MOHR secretary-general Datuk Seri Khairul Dzaimee Daud, have been reviewed.

“Based on the audit, we have identified several issues that require documentation and testimony from the involved parties, among others, on investment, fund management and training matters, as well as property acquisition.

“A special team has been formed, and several investigation papers have been initiated. On July 9, the investigation team will visit MOHR and HRD Corp to obtain additional documents,” he said.

He said several people have been identified to provide statements for the probe, which will be conducted under Sections 18 and 23 of the MACC Act 2009.

Yesterday, the MACC confirmed receiving information and several documents on HRD Corp, related to the Auditor-General’s Report, from Khairul Dzaimee.

The MACC said it is examining the documents to identify elements of corruption, misappropriation, or abuse of power under the MACC Act 2009.
