"For those who are still intoxicated by bribery, please listen to this warning: Stop the corruption and power abuse and surrender yourself!" he said at the function, which was held in conjunction with his 100th day in office.
Dzulkifli addressed his letter to a wide range of groups, including parents, teachers, the youth, government servants, enforcement officers, politicians, community leaders, judges, and MACC staff.
