Integrity Pacts in Malaysia - Country Overview

Mission

Ensure transparency and integrity in public procurement processes across various sectors in Malaysia

Activities

The Government of Malaysia introduced a guideline for Integrity Pact implementation in public procurements in 2010. This has been promoted by the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission since then. The National Anti-Corruption Plan (2019 – 2023) continues to endorse the use of Integrity Pacts to meet the objective of strengthening the Malaysian Public Procurement Framework. The Malaysian Integrity Pacts include obligations on the part of procurement authorities and bidders with respect to integrity and anti-corruption commitments, as well as sanctions for non-compliance, but do not establish particular monitoring oversight systems.

Transparency International Malaysia has been instrumental in promoting the use of Integrity Pacts and supporting the Malaysian government at the national and regional levels, as well as Malaysian state-owned enterprises, for implementing Integrity Pacts. From 2010 – 2012, Transparency International Malaysia estimated that Integrity Pacts had been used in more than 142,268 tenders for government contracts. Numerous state-owned enterprise Integrity Pact commitments and models of Integrity Pacts can be found online in English.
