Prosecutors need to develop a deeper understanding of the country's constitution and laws and disseminate this information to all Lao citizens, as part of the fight against corrupt and greedy officials who abuse their power. This advice was given in Vientiane yesterday by President of the National Assembly, Ms Pany Yathortou, during a national meeting of prosecutors attended by hundreds of participants from all over the country.
Ms Pany did not indicate how serious corruption and bribery among officials is in Laos, but stressed the need to improve the prosecutorial structure and put capable officials in the right positions, as part of efforts to address the problem.
“Prosecutors need to improve their responsibilities by respecting the laws of the land. Your work needs to be beyond reproach if it is to truly benefit the nation,” she said.
“Your involvement will contribute to the fight against negative tendencies including corruption, bribery, greed and abuse of power by officials for their own benefit, while at the same time providing an effective response to the plots hatched up by subversive elements.”
Yesterday's meeting reviewed the past achievements of prosecutors in Vientiane and the provinces and outlined plans for the future.
In 2009-10, people's prosecutor offices in Vientiane and the provinces processed more than 4,000 cases, of which 3,474 were resolved. The most common cases dealt with road accidents, drug (amphetamine) use and trafficking, and robbery.
Other cases were related to land use disputes, the breaking of money-lending contracts and inheritance disputes.
D espite these achievements, a number of prosecutors have not responded to the work requirements of this new era to facilitate national development and build a just society.
Ms Pany urged all prosecutors to broaden their knowledge and solve cases more quickly as some were taking far too long to solve, giving rise to public complaints about law enforcement, including the people's prosecutor's office.
She learned that some people had been detained longer than the time stipulated by law, so it was even more important for the law enforcement sector to generate trust and confidence among the public.
She said prosecutors needed to work harder and try to understand their role and function so they can achieve the goals assigned to them by their country.
The National Assembly has approved more than 90 laws including the Law on Anti-Corruption, Law on State Inspection and Law on State Accounting, but the implementation of these laws has not always been successful.
Therefore, the law enforcement sector needs to work cooperatively to ensure laws are enforced effectively.
However, one of the most important things is to circulate more information, so every villager can play a part in ensuring that all citizens abide by the law to create a just society.
