Regional Coordination Mechanism launched with substantial progress

The 2nd Executive Committee (ExCo) meeting was successfully held on 24 February 2022. Mr Simon Peh, President of IAACA, thanked ExCo members for making good efforts in taking forward the regional coordination mechanism shortly after the 1st ExCo meeting in January. During the meeting, ExCo members actively shared their experience in reaching out to anti-corruption authorities (ACAs) in their regions and offered valuable views on enhancing IAACA's visibility in the international arena.

Inauguration of the new term of the Executive Committee

In the General Meeting held on 5 January 2022, Mr Simon Peh, Commissioner of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Hong Kong, China (Hong Kong ICAC), was elected the President for the new three-year term (2022-2024).

"I am deeply grateful to the Central People's Government and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government for supporting me in taking up the presidency of the IAACA. It demonstrates the unwavering commitment of the Hong Kong ICAC to contributing to the global anti-corruption cause. I also wish to express my gratitude to all IAACA members for their backing and trust. We will work closely together in the next three years to sustain IAACA's existing programmes, implement new initiatives and chart a clear way forward for the Association." Mr Peh remarked.
