Speaker: Her Excellency Dato’ Seri Wan Suraya Wan Mohd Radzi; Auditor General of Malaysia
Title: From Audit Findings to Action: Strengthening Public Sector Accountability Through Digital Oversight
Description: Finding a weakness in the use of public funds raises a further question: what action followed? This session will highlight how the expanded mandate of the Supreme Audit Institution of Malaysia supports scrutiny of public money and how the Auditor General’s Dashboard tracks responses to issues brought to light through audit, keeping corrective action visible after the report is published. It will explore how digital oversight maintains focus on unresolved issues and strengthens accountability for public resources.
