In politics for the good of the nation - not some 'self-enrichment' agenda..

GUIDELINES FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF CORRUPTION AND ABUSE OF POWER

1 - All MPs, ADUNs and Senators should be FULL TIME people's representative and shall attend all Parliamentary, Senate and State Assembly sessions. 

2 - No MP, ADUN and/or Senator shall not be made Directors of GLC Companies who receive Director's salary/allowance/etc - all payments, save for maybe transportation allowance, received by such State/Federal Government shall be paid into the government coffers. Why? Because these appointments are for and on behalf of the people, and shall not serve to additionally enrich the 'wakil rakyat'. In addition all government appointed Directors shall be civil servants, and shall not be entitled to additional enrichment by reason of the said appointment.

3 - No member of the families of the said MP/ADUN/Senator and/or they themselves should be associated with companies/businesses/persons that put in and/or are awarded government projects and/or tenders. 

4 - No businesses and/or paying work shall be given to businesses, law firms and/or other companies owned by totally and/or in part by the MPs/ADUNs/Senators and/or Local Councillors. {There has been allegations that local council legal work are being given to firms of lawyers of MPs/ADUNs/Senators and/or Local Councillors and/or office bearers/Majlis Tertinggi of the ruling party at any level)

5 - There must be guidelines for all GLCs - limiting the wages of the CEO and higher management, and also Director allowances and benefits. CEO wages shall not be higher than the salary of the Prime Minister and/or Menteri Besar, as it is.

6. There must be similar control for all public listed companies - since the payment of high salaries, allowances and bonuses is really directly affecting the share of these individual small investors directly or indirectly (i.e. through KWSP). Investors must get their truly deserved share of the profits usually paid out by means of dividends.

7 .... and other guidelines that Malaysians need to suggest

FAILING WHICH .... THINGS MAY CONTINUE AS IT WAS UNDER THE BN GOVERNMENT ALL THESE YEARS... 

There has always been the perception that people try to become branch leaders, division leaders and leaders of political parties as they expect to be rewarded with 'projects' and tenders... and a study, if done, may reveal that this may not be far from the truth for many 'leaders' have certainly enriched themselves much more than the rakyat... this is a trend that must be stopped...people involve themselves in politics and political life for the good of all Malaysians and Malaysia - not for some 'self-enrichment' agenda...
