He said this at the commissioning of Young Integrity Officers (YIO) for the Anti-Corruption Volunteer Students Cadet Corps (SUAR Corps) at Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA) here today.

The ceremony saw 39 UniSZA SUAR Corps cadets commissioned as MACC YIOs by the Integrity Officer Accreditation Board (LPPIB) today.

Azam added that UniSZA is the only higher education institution in the country to establish the SUAR Corps aimed at producing graduates with high integrity and knowledge in anti-corruption.

He said the MACC will enhance the SUAR Corps training at UniSZA by adding weapons training programmes to the existing modules in line with the National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) 2024-2028. — Bernama
