That is a HUGE figure, when you consider that in our (fast-disintegrating) system of democracy, the judges are the last resort for citizen's rights against the state. 24% of Malaysians don't think so any more. Bearing in mind that most Malaysians get their "truth" from Bernama, Utusan and TV3, that is quite a worrying figure. I bet that before 1988, the figure would have been much lower, back in the days when judges actually were fairly independent. Thank you, Uncle Mahathir, for "curing" them of that.

Look at Singapore. How is it that despite lacking in natural resources even food and water to feed its people, its surplus therefore its currency is several times bigger ! stronger ! Where has all OUR wealth gone. For every ringgit of tax payers money spent, how much, how many % is going into the pockets of corrupt officials Anyone knows ?

All the labs done, all the interviews with different stakeholders, all the proposal and reports being written, all the paper usedfir printing, drawing charts etc...what does PEMANDU have to show us, the Rakyat of Malaysia? Have you betrayed our hopes and aspirations from all the lofty things you promised us? You wanted to give us a better Malaysia, and we believed in you. This poll showed that you have failed us. Failed us with a great sense of disappointment.

That's still too low la. The other 55% think no corruption in politics? Must be kampung folks or people receiving BR1M.

Is this by virtue of the regular cycle of parliamentary elections? Just how "democratic" is parliament in Malaysia, this grand august house of BS? Os is this too by virtue that the people's representatives sit in cushy chairs in an air-conditioned chamber listening to one piece of BS after another from both sides of the floor? Or is Malaysia a "democracy" by virtue of its institutions, such as the laughable bureaucracy, the Islamic Nazis, the pathetic police, the Malay-dominated armed forces, the corrupt and politically pliant (higher) courts, the humbug infested schools, colleges and universities? And what does one say about this idiot, Nur Jazlan Mohamed, other than that he hums the tunes of those whose boots he licks and polishes with his tongue rather than say something original, for once, and something truthful for once. To take Shahrizat's family to court over their attempt to embezzle hundreds of millions of the people's money is small fry by any measure. Let's go right into the ministries, to the ministers and their chief underlings, and investigate every one of them for crimes against Malaysians and Malaysian taxpayers. In fact, why not start with Nur Jazlan Mohamed: Will he declare his financial assets to the public -- truthfully, for once?

Corruption in political parties does not mean the distrust in the democratic system. It just means distrust on the politician. Saying you distrust democracy is like saying, we want to go back to Autocracy or worst Theocracy.

Just because we don't buy into your so-called efforts to pursue corruption, doesn't mean we are immature. We want results! Not talk! We want the BIG FISHES caught, prosecuted and paid the ultimate penalty for their criminal acts. Until we see for ourselves in the all the media, online, print and broadcast trumpeting justice, only then we will believe in you and your team! Otherwise shut up and go do your job!

We are too matured to know these are but sandiwaras. Arrest and charged the big sharks, there are so many cases for all Malaysians to see, why no action? Corruption will be a way of life in Malaysia for as long as UMNObaru/BN is in power?

Not just immature, but absolutely ignorant and foolish.
