The President’s Office has on Tuesday launched an online portal through which acts of corruption can be reported anonymously.
The office expresses its belief that the portal will allow the government to become more aware of possible corruption in its office and tackle the issue.
President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih himself has shared the portal, through a tweet.
At Tuesday’s event, President Solih encouraged staff at state-run offices to be attentive towards possible corruption.
The government also says that recent efforts from the Anti-Corruption Commission, Auditor General’s Office, and Transparency Maldives has uncovered several cases of corruption.
Ratifying a ‘Whistblower Act’ is one of the government’s pledges for it first 100 days in office.
