Dili 27/07/2012— “CAC is not an enemy of the public but as a partner…we continue open and look forward to work with the new government and national parliament in preventing and combating corruption in Timor-Leste,” said the Anti-Corruption Commissioner Adérito de Jesus Soares in the national television (TVTL)’s exclusive interview this morning.

The exclusive interview by the TVTL was meant for Commissioner Adérito to share some progress and lessons learned regarding CAC’s work so far and the way forward and also for Commissioner to address the importance of having an appropriate mechanism for asset declaration by government officials, which has not been clearly stated in the Law No.7/2007 regarding Statutory Law of the Sovereign Entity.

The one-hour interview is expected to broadcast by TVTL later tonight at its 7:00PM Exclusive Program and will be replayed on Monday morning, 30 July 2012 at 7:00 AM.

The one-hour exclusive interview was led by head of the TVTL Expedito Diaz Ximenes.

Deputy Commissioner of the Anti-Corruption Commission José António de Jesus das Neves gave a two-hour lecture today on transparency and accountability as control mechanism in Timor-Leste at the National University of Timor-Leste (UNTL). The seminar lecture was attended by more than 60 UNTL students whom mostly from the Department of Political Science and Public Administration.

The lecture is part of the United Nations Integrated Mission in Timor’s series of organized lectures with the University to increase the students’ critical and analytical knowledge and open up their horizons on various aspects related to good governance, particularly in the context of Timor-Leste.  In his lecture, Deputy Commissioner Neves highlighted some key points regarding the importance of transparency in the fight against corruption as to promote accountability and good governance in Timor-Leste. Accountability should become a control mechanism to prevent people from abuse of power and miss use of public good/ funds for private interest. Accountability could help enforce the implementation of laws and regulations and sanctions over the wrong doings.

Deputy Commissioner Neves ended his lecture with a good number of questions and answers from students. Most of the questions touched upon CAC’s role in combating corruption in Timor-Leste and what has CAC done so far in the last two years of its existence.
