MACC was initiated by Malaysia's former Prime Minister Tun Abdullah Badawi
To upgrade ACA and revamp transparency
He was doing it out of love for the country
As he was talking about fighting graft since 2003
When MACC was setup, Malaysians were rather happy
As they were looking for positive changes that come their way eventually
In fact, MACC has also received compliments from Hong Kong's ICAC
However, things started to change as soon as Tun Abdullah Badawi left office
Since then, there were many unpleasant stories
Well, to be exact it's almost like a horror movie
MACC has started to investigate many cases which were petty
Cases which not many Malaysian thinks it's worthy
Meanwhile, delaying huge cases involving big mansions and Mercedes
Leaving those huge cases under KIV
Perhaps the officers thought that small cases can be handle much quickly
Hence, it like our teacher advising us to answer exam questions which are easy
While their intention were noble, but they were very unlucky
It begins with the death of a political aide during their custody
That triggered a nationwide protest from various parties
Since then, nobody seem to trust the MACC
While the head of MACC was still trying to improve to gain the trust of everybody
This time by going after "big fishes" and their buddies
So they go after Custom Department as there were alleged of involving "big money"
Then many custom officers were brought in for queries
Then, MACC has started gaining some trust once again from the society
Once again, things has gone really bad with another death of a detainee
When one of the MACC officers found his body
Now Malaysian were having serious doubts about MACC's competency
Whether or not MACC is indeed our national liability
Where the same mistakes were made twice where its almost like double jeopardy
Now MACC has reach the crossroads where she has to decide decisively
On whether or not the entire organization structure needs to do another thorough study
Bad reputation can be very deadly
Right now, MACC's reputation is the lowest compare to other government agencies
If MACC are serious about making a good history
Then, concrete steps must be brought up or people will not trust them indefinitely
