Abstract

With regards to fighting corruption and promoting transparency in organization, agency integrity unit was established in 2013 in managing issues related to integrity. In addition, a Corporate Integrity Assessment Questionnaire (CIAQ) has been developed by the Malaysian Institute of Integrity in collaboration with several Malaysian academicians to measure the implementation of the integrity system in their organization. There were 173 respondents from Company A (public sector), and 220 respondents from Company B (private sector) and the findings showed that Company A has integrity level between 75% to 100% . In contrast, Company B integrity level is between 50% to 75%.Â Â
