Hariri wants to fight corruption

Share:

Lebanon Prime Minister Saad Hariri called on Tuesday during a conference at the Grand Serail on improving management and fighting corruption on relevant parliamentary commissions to quickly approve law proposals on the issue.

He said that   political disputes in Lebanon have seriously impacted the ability of the Lebanese institutions to monitor state accountability.

“The goal is to enhance the public sector to ensure better services for the Lebanese,” Hariri added.

Stability

In an interview with Al-Arabiya TV, Hariri said Thursday that the joint visit of Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to Lebanon Friday “brings considerable stability to the country after the regional tensions.”

He added that this visit comes within the framework of strengthening the initiative launched by King Abdullah during Kuwait’s economic summit.

He added that “King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz launched an initiative for Arab reconciliations and he is visiting the Arab countries.”

  1. With all due respect to Mr Saad but he has to start with himself first and go down the list. But this is typical in countries like Lebanon and Syria where its common to pay someone to get things done.

    1. good point Elias, Im sure he is as dirty as the rest of the thieves.

    the only way sure to fight corruption in lebanon is to start now by enforcing the good old anti corruption law that was drafted during the french mandate in the 30’s and entitled “min ayn laka haza?” meaning where did you get your fortune from?

    according to this law all government employees, no exception, from the simple janitor up to the president are supposed to declare all their financial net worth and assets publicly before and after they leave office.

      when a country’s been at war for so many years, you can’t exactly enforce many things can you when you’re too busy rebuilding so many things from infrastructure to lives.

      lebanons slowly dusting itself off and regaining its bearings very slowly.
