The 20 anti-corruption officials posed with the Japanese ambassador before leaving for Japan on 17th May.ACU Officials To Leave to Japan under the JENESYS Program
AKP Phnom Penh, May 13, 2011 –Twenty (20) officials from the Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) will leave for Japan on May 17 under the JENESYS (Japan-East Asia Network of Exchange for Students and Youths) Program for eight days.
During their stay in Japan, ACU officials will attend lectures on corruption countermeasures, ethics for public officers, current situation of crackdown on corruption in Japan and other topics related to anti-corruption procedures, according to the Embassy of Japan in Phnom Penh.
They will also have the opportunity to visit the Japan-Cambodia Parliamentarian Friendship League, the Public Prosecutor’s Office, Yokohama City, and also visit Nagano Prefecture to better understand Japanese culture and local industry.
Anti-Corruption is one of the important pillars of the Rectangular Strategy of the Royal Government of Cambodia, one to which the government has ensured its commitment through the Anti-Corruption Law that came in to force in April 2010. As anti-corruption measures are a key element of good governance and socio-economic development, the Government of Japan will support the efforts of the Royal Government of Cambodia through the JENESYS Program. It is expected that this program will offer an opportunity for young ACU officials to deepen their professional knowledge through experts’ lectures and visits to various institutions in the field of anti-corruption in Japan.
The JENESYS Programme is based on a plan announced by Mr. Shinzo Abe, Prime Minister of Japan at that time, at the Second East Asia Summit (EAS), held in January 2007. The plan is to implement a 35 billion yen youth exchange programme, inviting about 6,000 young people to Japan, mainly from the EAS member states (ASEAN countries, Australia, China, India, New Zealand and the Republic of Korea) every year for five years, with a view to establishing a basis for Asian solidarity by expanding youth exchange. The JENESYS Programme sees East Asian youths invited to Japan, Japanese youths sent to East Asia and other exchange activities. The programme is expected to deepen mutual understanding among young people who will assume important roles in the future in each East Asian country.
