VIENNA, 10 February 2017 – A specialized workshop on Singapore’s anti-corruption experience and best practices concluded today in Vienna.
The two-day event, organized by the Office of the Co-ordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental Activities (OCEEA) in co-operation with the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau of Singapore, brought together senior representatives of anti-corruption agencies in Moldova, Mongolia, Tajikistan and Ukraine in charge of developing national anti-corruption policies.
“Measures aimed at curbing corruption require a comprehensive approach based on strong political will,” said Wee Liam Chin, Deputy Director for Training Cum Public Sector and General Investigations of the Investigations Department of the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau of Singapore. “Effective laws, independent judiciary, effective enforcement and a responsive public service are necessary components of an effective anti-corruption strategy.”
The participants discussed best practices and lessons learnt in the area of anti-corruption, including examples of successful and effective strategies for corruption prevention. The workshop addressed challenges related to the investigation of corruption offences and the implementation of mechanisms to ensure the integrity and transparency of anti-corruption agencies. The participants shared relevant national experiences in combating corruption and acquired methodologies to prevent, curb, investigate and prosecute corruption crimes.
Andrei Muntean, Head of the Economic Governance Unit of the OCEEA, said: “For the first time, the OSCE presented Singapore’s expertise in countering and eradicating corruption to selected participating States and provided a platform for fostering co-operation and facilitate inter-agency dialogue on corruption prevention”.
The workshop was conducted by Wee Liam Chin and Chun How Bay, Assistant Director of Singapore General Investigations Branch 1 and Investigations Training Unit of the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau of Singapore.
