Knowledge Commitment Action Against Corruption in Asia and the Pacific
Asian Development Bank | April 2006
Abstract
In recent years, there have seen significant progress in the fight against corruption in the Asia and the Pacific region. Only a few years ago, had countries in the region wished to call for an open, constructive discussion of the difficulties they faced because of corruption, no international forum would have been available to them. Matters crucial to improving social welfare, reducing poverty, and boosting economic development in the region were the focus of the Fifth Regional Anti-Corruption Conference for Asia and the Pacific, held in Beijing, People’s Republic of China, on 28–30 September 2005. The analysis and discussions at this event provide guidance for future work to meet these challenges.
