Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent discussions he has had with his Malaysian counterpart on the continuation of anti-corruption measures in that country.

The Foreign Secretary discussed anti-corruption reforms with the then Prime Minister Mahathir and Foreign Minister Saiffudin in Kuala Lumpur on 11 February.

We are working to support a variety of anti-corruption initiatives in Malaysia, including contributing to the development of a National Anti-Corruption Plan and supporting the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.

The UK is committed to the continuation of anti-corruption measures in Malaysia, and we look forward to working with Prime Minister Muhyiddin and his new government in his stated aim to tackle corruption and promote institutional reform.
