Transparency International binigyan Pinas ng C rating versus corruption; Palasyo natuwa

MASAYA ang Palasyo sa C rating na ibinigay ng Transparency International Government Defence Integrity Index kaugnay ng kampanya ng gobyerno kontra korupsyon.

Sinabi ni Acting presidential spokesperson Karlo Nograles na katumbas lamang ang C rating sa modest institutional resilience to corruption rating. Anya, kahanay lang ng Pinas ang 20 bansa kabilang na ang Australia, Japan, South Korea at Singapore.

“We credit this to President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s zero tolerance against allegations of official malfeasance,” sabi ni Nograles.

Aniya, marami nang sinibak si Duterte na matataas na opisyal ng kanyang administrasyon na sangkot sa katiwalian.

“In his weekly Talk to the People Address from November 2020 to June 2021, the President announced the dismissal of 261 and suspension of 187 government officials and employees,” aniya.

“This relentless drive to have a clean, strong and responsive government will continue until the remainder of the President’s term,” ayon pa kay Nograles.
