Abstract

Government-Linked Companies (GLCs) are companies with commercial objectives in which the government has a direct controlling stake, especially in major decision-making. However, the lack of commitment to maintaining the integrity standard as a governing body's core value has led to the GLCs underperforming in terms of consequences. In previous studies, the qualitative method was used to provide the article with a conceptual framework for corporate governance by governing bodies. The framework was infused with a commitment to Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 16, which promotes the rule of law and good governance as a fundamental element.
