Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Huq on Wednesday said the Bangladesh government took different initiatives including necessary institutional reform to implement its zero-tolerance policy against corruption
He said while explaining Bangladesh's experience in curbing corruption as a panelist at a high-level panel discussion on the second day of the first minister-level meeting of OIC in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Anisul said though Anti-Corruption Act was formulated in 2004 to make the anti-corruption bureau an independent institution, the government has to make many institutional reforms and formulate new laws to implement the act.
The minister said as corruption is a global challenge, there is no alternative to regional and international cooperation to retrieve laundered money.
