Madagascar Government Vows 'Zero Tolerance' Against Corruption
As part of a drive for national reconstruction, the new Malagasy authorities have announced an unprecedentedly firm stance against the misappropriation of public funds in a recent press release.
Anyone found guilty of misappropriation of national funds or resources, whether domestically or abroad, will be required to return the stolen assets and will face legal proceedings, regardless of their rank or familial connections.
To facilitate management audits (expected to be completed within three months), senior officials are prohibited from leaving Madagascar without a special exemption.
The measures are intended to ensure complete traceability of public funds and their allocation to their intended use and are part of a major overhaul of public management control.
The new authorities are simultaneously working to restore the confidence of international donors, media reported.
