SHAH ALAM - Datuk Abdul Malik Dasthigeer or better known as Datuk Malik will provide full cooperation to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in the investigations into cases of corruption, criminal breach of trust (CBT), smuggling of illegal goods and invalid tax reduction.

The Malik Group of Companies founder and chairman said he had given the full disclosure on the matter.

"I will assist in providing the necessary information for the investigations into the case and would continue to provide information to help (in solving) the case.

"Thank you to those who have showed support for me," he said on his Instagram account on Friday.

He said he hoped for the best in order for justice to be upheld.
