LEGAL NOTICES

The purpose of this policy is to provide an overview on Strateq’s code of conduct to prevent acts of bribery and corruption, in compliance with anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws. The aim of this provision is to foster growth of a business environment that is free of corruption, and to encourage Strateq to take reasonable and proportionate measures to ensure its businesses do not participate in corrupt activities for its advantage or benefit.

 

Strateq Group complies with the subsection (5) of section 17A of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009 (Act 694) (“MACC Act 2009”), as stated in the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (Amendment) Act 2018 (“MACC Amendment Act 2018”). This is to ensure that Strateq and/or anyone acting on its behalf does not, by any act or omission, place or involve Strateq Group in breach of such laws in any respect.

 

Strateq Group prohibits: the offering, the giving, the solicitation or the acceptance of any bribe, whether cash or other inducement to or from any person or company, wherever they are situated and whether they are a public official or body or private person or company by any individual consultant, agent or other person or body acting on the company’s behalf in order to gain any commercial, contractual or regulatory advantage for the company in a way which is unethical or in order to gain any personal advantage, pecuniary or otherwise, for the individual or anyone connected with the individual.

 

Strateq Group values its reputation for ethical behaviour and for financial probity and reliability. It recognises that over and above the commission of any crime, any involvement in bribery will also reflect adversely on its image and reputation. Its aim therefore is to limit its exposure to bribery by:

  1. Setting out a clear anti-bribery policy.
  2. Providing adequate training to its personnel so that they can recognise and avoid the use of bribery by themselves and others.
  3. Encouraging its stakeholders and clients to be vigilant and to report any suspicion of bribery, providing them with suitable channels of communication and ensuring sensitive information is treated appropriately.
  4. Rigorously investigating instances of alleged bribery and assisting the police and other appropriate authorities in any resultant prosecution.
  5. Taking firm and vigorous action against any individual(s) involved in bribery.
