The Chairman of the Integrity and Anti-Corruption Commission in Jordan, Muhannad Hijazi, said that the Corona pandemic has contributed significantly to impeding national and international efforts to combat corruption, besiege it or limit its effects.
Hegazy added, during the celebration of the International Anti-Corruption Day, today, Thursday, that the pandemic is still wearing many new clothes in stifling anti-corruption efforts, prosecuting the corrupt and limiting their evils locally, regionally and internationally.
He pointed out that the exceptional circumstances that the Kingdom has witnessed during the past 20 months are not easy for the authority, because it constituted to some extent a “stumbling block in front of our path”, but the authority was able, with an open mind and a solid will, to skip it, overcome its obstacles, withstand these conditions, and achieve more achievements. .
He pointed out that the celebration consolidates a global phenomenon as an expression of the solidarity of the countries of the world in the face of a scourge of the times, which afflicts all societies without exception, just like epidemics, noting that it is a multi-form phenomenon, but it is necessary to work to combat it.
He explained that the Kingdom jumped to the first rank in the Arab world in anti-corruption efforts and 57 globally, thus advancing 7 points over last year’s ranking, stressing that the rank that Jordan achieved did not come from a vacuum, but was based on great efforts and factors that take into account the real cases of corruption.
