Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) has unveiled a five-year strategic plan aimed at strengthening corruption prevention efforts.
The commission said the plan will serve as a roadmap to better utilize its resources by targeting high-risk areas.
Structured around five key pillars, it aims to deliver visible positive changes in tackling corruption.
The strategy was launched on Wednesday at the ACC headquarters by ACC President Adam Shamil and Saudi Ambassador to Maldives Yahya Hassan Alqahtani.
Key focus areas
The plan is divided into five main areas:
- Governance and administrative development
- Strengthening administrative management and performance
- Reinforcing the national integrity system
- Improving state procurement and oversight of state-owned enterprises
- Preventing and addressing political corruption
The ACC said the strategy will also prioritize public awareness across all age groups and expand training programmes through the Maldives Anti-Corruption Academy.
It added that targeted measures will be introduced to identify high-risk corruption areas within state-owned companies, alongside reforms to improve systems and strengthen procurement monitoring.
The commission highlighted political corruption as a key concern over the next five years.
Efforts will include promoting fair electoral processes and transparent employment practices, with the aim of maintaining public confidence in state institutions.
