  • Reconsider Articles 115 through 119 of the Penal Code—The Chapter on Public Funds— to counter the prevailing modus operandi of the government, which is characterized by irresolution and hesitancy. In this regard, attention should be given to enacting a specific and clear law holding ministers and public officials politically accountable for their policies and action, rather than limiting their accountability to the legal realm—accountability for criminal conduct. Attention should also be given to providing support to public officials and building their confidence in making decisions that serve the public interest and respond to national development objectives, as long as these decisions are well-studied, and were subject to broad-based and meaningful community dialogue.
