الملخص:Do Malaysian statutory bodies have a blind spot in their internal controls? This study uses Importance-Performance Map Analysis to investigate. While the system is rated highly effective, a critical gap is found: Control Activities, Risk Assessment, and Monitoring are undervalued despite strong performance. This paradox suggests a vulnerability in governance. Insights from 194 Chief Executive Officers highlight the need to strengthen the Control Environment and Information & Communication through leadership and modernised systems. Elevating the perceived importance of Control Activities, Risk Assessment, and Monitoring is essential to fully optimise internal controls in Malaysian statutory bodies.
