This study is based on a case study analysis of six public sector entities using a content analysis of the annual report. From the case studies analysis, it shows that all the dimensions in the international public sector governance best practices are being practiced by the federal statutory bodies in Malaysia. Though this paper provides some useful insights into governance practices among public sector entities, it is limited to case studies on six federal statutory bodies and the non-financial information in the annual reports only. This study might give more impact if primary data were used through focus group discussions and interviews with key governance players in the public sector.</p> ER -
