This government always claims to be serious about anti-corruption, but then Anwar stated that the whistleblower in the high-profile Sabah corruption case cannot be protected because the whistleblower himself is part of the corruption activity so Anwar implied that only "clean" person can be protected under the whistleblower acts.

Essentially, this official statement has rendered the whistleblower protection acts redundant. For a simply case study let's imagine one day your boss asks you to give under-the-table money and sexual favor to a bank officer to expedite a problematic loan application, and instead of meeting this bank officer in a secret hotel room, you report the case to MACC and ask for whistleblower protection.

Then, out of the blue you receive a phone call from a man claiming himself as legal expert named Uncle Wah stating you are not entitled to whistleblower protection because you are part and parcel of the under-the-table activity.

This whole situation makes no logical sense at all and will eventually put the credibility of this government and the integrity of the laws at risk of collapsing as 10 out of 10 whistleblowers are insider who also "involved" in the game with reliable insider information because an outsider without insider information can never provide a reliable information at the first place.

------------------------------

Types of Protection (extracted from MACC website):

1) The identity of the informant and the information provided is kept confidential and not to be disclosed to anybody, even during the trial in court. (Section 7(1)(a) Whistleblowers Protection Act 2010)

2) Whistleblowers should not be liable to any civil action, criminal or disciplinary consequences of such disclosure. (Section 7(1)(b) Whistleblowers Protection Act 2010)

3) Whistleblowers are protected from any act prejudicial to the outcome of the reaction disclosures have been made. (Section 7(1)(c) Whistleblowers Protection Act 2010)

4) Protection is also given to those who have connection / relationship with the informant. (Section 7(3) Whistleblowers Protection Act 2010)

Question: which part of the above statement excluded the whistleblower in Sabah from the protection of Whistleblowers Protection Act 2020?
