Is the MACC for real or just another show?

The MACC(Malaysian Anti Corruption Corporation) has been really active of late. Investigations into the PKFZ, Puspakom and the current MRR2 fiasco. Coffee shop talk of late has been that finally M'sia has an effective anti corruption organisation. Is that really true? Or is it another show put up by our govt?

If one examines clearly, those caught guilty are normally lower ranking officers like those in Puspakom. Are they really the culprits? Or were they sacrificial lambs? Do we really believe that corruption lies only with the lower ranking officers? What about those holding loftier positions like Ministers or Menteri Besars? More often than not investigations into these bigwigs always end with the standard "No concrete evidence" and they walk off scot free. Even with concrete evidence like the Khir "Toyol" fiasco, no investigation has yet to be carried out. Why? Is it b'cos he is beyond the law? Or are there more sinister findings that cannot be revealed? Or maybe the claim that the opposition DAP MP had misused RM2,000 is more significant than a MB using millions to take his family and maids for holidays?

So is MACC for real of for show? To me, it is still a show until they have the guts enuf to prosecute the bigwigs!
