It is the duty of the internal auditor to make sure the corporate entity has strong Governance mechanism. If the Governance is weak in such an entity, it is the resposibility of the internal auditor to communicate the importance of effective corporate governance and consequenses that may affect such entity to the management and employees.

Yes, I agree. It is a fact to have this situation where the corporate governance is weak. Such weakness of governance leads to isolate the function of internal audit from other departments. Thus, it becomes irritating to them.
