GEORGE TOWN - Malaysia has the potential to be a developed country in the region on condition that the practice of stealing the nation’s wealth through corruption is stopped altogether, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The prime minister said political leaders, high level civil servants or enforcement agencies must put a stop to corrupt practices.

""I will no longer tolerate the attitude of those who make use of contracts or projects to acquire wealth which is not theirs," he said in his speech at Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow's Chinese New Year open house here today.

Meanwhile, Anwar said Malaysians must have the courage to reject racism, corruption and abuse of power.

Anwar is confident that the country will be able to achieve progress within a short time, like never before, if there is a strong spirit of unity among the people to say no to unethical practices. - Bernama
