KUCHING, Nov 3: Sarawak has become the first State in the world to establish a direct partnership with the International Anti-Corruption Academy (IACA), based in Austria, to enhance integrity management capacity in the public administration sector.
Deputy Minister in the Sarawak Premier’s Department (Integrity and Ombudsman) Dato Dr Juanda Jaya said the collaboration would pave the way for training programmes, research, and international expertise-sharing to strengthen integrity systems and corruption prevention efforts in Sarawak.
“Sarawak Premier Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg has emphasised that Sarawak constantly seeks to enhance programmes related to integrity, the ombudsman and corruption prevention to ensure that its administrative and management systems meet international standards,” he said after a courtesy visit from an IACA delegation led by its Dean, Drago Kos, to Abang Johari at the Satria Pertiwi Complex here today, as reported by TVS.
