KUALA LUMPUR: Urgent and decisive actions are needed in response to the latest Auditor-General’s Report, which once again exposes entrenched weaknesses in public sector governance, says Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.

The social activist said the recurring issues of financial mismanagement, procurement irregularities, and non-compliance with procedures revealed a "troubling culture of negligence and impunity" within certain government agencies.

“The same systemic failures keep surfacing year after year, and yet we continue to see a lack of accountability.

"These are not just technical lapses. They point to deeper problems in the way public resources are handled," he said when contacted on Saturday (July 26).
