efficiency.

The ACC intends to adopt the demand side approach to citizen’s centric
governance reform empowering citizens to monitor, audit and report on
the performance of public agencies.
Stimulate society to move from a culture of acceptance of corruption to
rejection of corruption.
Minimize Conflict of Interests.
The motivation to earn easy way income is still extremely strong. Thus
a Role Model is required in each office who will act as a living legend of
Ethics.
Show zero tolerance to rent seeking behavior.
Comprehensive regulation is needed because the discretion of many
public or Bank officials is unrestricted and this systemic weakness is
intensified by poorly defined, ever changing, and poorly disseminated
rules and regulations.
