When it comes to bribery, Malaysia isn't really doing well after we dropped to the 57th position our of 180 countries involved in the Corruption Perceptions Index in the year 2020.
So, I guess SPRM heard the news and decided it it time to do something about this!
Recently, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (SPRM), uploaded an advertisement displaying corrupt activities to give awareness to the public not to get involved in corruption. Through the advertisement, it showed a situation in a clinic where a patient tried to bribe a doctor to get a sick leave certificate.
