According to The Malaysian Insider:
“The minister cannot make a decision (on this). So cases that involve certain matters, including these principals who have high (pay) grades... If I am not wrong, their grades are between 48 and 52, so this has to be decided on by a disciplinary board under the (purview of the) PSD’s director-general,” he told reporters after opening the 10th regional seminar on the Criminalisation of Bribery at the Palace of the Golden Horses hotel here this afternoon.
Muhyiddin pointed out that the ministry, on its part, had already done its own research on the cases and had handed over its report to the PSD for further action.
“I have asked the PSD to mete out appropriate action. It is under their jurisdiction (to do so),” he said.
He added that he had already made the announcement and urged the people to wait for the PSD to make its decision.

So during times of trouble like what happened last month in Kedah and Johore, who ya gonna call?
Who will protect students and stand up for justice? Who will use the stick to discipline the ones who did wrong?
May justice prevail!!!
It is going to be one long, winding and rocky journey....
