'MACC's KPI for the week': Saravanan pans asset declaration notices after court charge
However, ex-minister says he will comply with MACC's requests.
On August 28, former Malaysian human resources minister M Saravanan appeared not guilty to charges of accepting RM1.097 million in bribes related to foreign worker quotas from four years prior. The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) intends to serve Saravanan, his spouse, and three children with an asset declaration notice, according to MACC chief Abd Halim Aman.
The notice is set to be delivered on Monday, granting Saravanan and his family a 30-day window to disclose their assets, Aman explained during a speech at the 5th National Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption Research Conference 2026. Halim emphasized that one of Saravanan's sons is currently pursuing studies in London and would be granted sufficient time to submit his asset declaration. Additionally, Aman stated that Saravanan and his family have been made aware of the matter.
