Wed nesday, 9 December 2009
RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan took part in a conference dated
to International Anti-Corruption Day, which was hosted by the USAID
Anti-corruption Action Mobilization Program in cooperation with the
OSCE Yerevan Office and the Office of Prosecutor General.
In his address to conference participants, the Prime Minister stated
in part: "Which way is the government going to handle this evil? Our
strategy can be divided into 3 important areas: the first one features
the body of State functionaries - our colleagues. Corruption will
be difficult, if not impossible to cope with if we fail to be more
exacting toward high-ranking public officials. The second major
direction covers structural reforms in the public sector. Society
is the third focus. Drastic reforms are needed for we can witness
that our society is not active in fighting corruption. Our society
is tolerant of corruption."
The forum was briefed on the government's anti-corruption strategy
and action plan, the recently published "The Office of Prosecutor
General against Corruption" booklet, as well as the activities of the
Interest Promotion and Support Center. Those present were introduced
to the findings of the public opinion poll conducted last fall by
the Caucasian Center for Research Resources.
