    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I heard many colleagues criticize the current Director, but I want to say that the problem is ours, and we must take responsibility. We were supposed to do our job to vet the people who were supposed to do this job. As Parliament, we must independently do so. We should not say everything that comes is good, just because we do not want to be seen to be anti-reform; we just “yes”, “yes”, “yes”. We must stop being a yes Parliament. We must do the job that we are supposed to do, so that we get the right people who can do the job. It is very unfortunate that one year down the line, after the appointment of the Director of KACC, everybody in this House, including myself, seems to be disappointed. Fighting corruption is enforcing a human right. If corruption has taken place, that is a human right issue. Also, the people who are suspected should have their rights defended. I do not want to wake up one day, and hear that somebody’s name being mentioned by somebody who is supposed to produce evidence. I believe we should tell anybody who becomes the Director of KACC next time that the first time the name of an individual features, it must feature in court, so that we avoid a situation where my name is mentioned just to get publicity."
