(CPI), the government has been successful in fighting corruption, said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, Idris Jala.

He was commenting on Malaysia maintaining its 56th position out of 178 countries in the TI International CPI this year - despite scoring a little less by 0.1 points, as compared to last year's results.
