According to Rabha Zeidguyan, an official of the Ministry in charge of modernizing the public sector, the Moroccan government has opted for a six-fold strategy to fight corruption.
The strategy is based on rooting ethical values; institutionalizing corruption prevention strategy; reinforcing transparency; improving the follow-up, control and audit system; simplifying administrative procedures; and education, awareness-raising and communication.
Zeidguy, who was speaking at a round table on "The government's plan to fight corruption: expectations and operators," also recalled the presentation in the parliament of several bills on money laundering, the generalization of competitive examinations to access the public service, the generalization of the call for candidacies for appointment in executive positions.
The minister, who deemed that law alone cannot stand up to such a “rooted” phenomenon, called on the civil society and NGO, along with the government to lead “concrete actions on site.”
For his part, Director General of the Maghreb Department in the World Bank, Theodore Ahlers hailed the action of the government in fighting corruption, recalling particularly the creation of the Instance centrale de lutte contre la corruption, an authority to counter corruption.
