  The virtual meeting on December 1 is presided over by Vice Chairperson and Secretary General An Sung Uk of the ACRC. The meeting introduces Korea’s continuous efforts to build a legislative foundation for anti-corruption such as the enforcement of Public Fund Recovery Act and the enactment of Conflict of Interest Prevention Act, as well as its anti-corruption achievements such as Clean Portal, Korea’s corruption/public interest online reporting system which has been recognized as a best practice in the international community such as at the G20 Summit meeting. Measures for future cooperation between the two organizations are also discussed at the meeting.

*Clean Portal (www.clean.go.kr) is online reporting system on corruption case or public interest violation, giving an easy and convenient access to anyone.

Meanwhile, from the Vietnamese’s side, over 20 officials from the CCIA and the Government Inspectorate of Vietnam including Standing Vice Chairman Vo Van Dung of the CCIA will participate in the meeting online and make a presentation on the country’s anti-corruption strategy 2020 and implementation result of the UN Convention Against Corruption.

ACRC Vice Chairperson and Secretary General An Sung Uk said, “I expect that this cooperation meeting could be an opportunity for our two organizations to share each other’s anti-corruption policy efforts and achievements and to further strengthen our anti-corruption policies and capability.”
