Kabul (BNA) Afghan governments has remained committed to its commitments regarding good governance, counter corruption campaign, transparency, accountability and other national programs and succeeded to win international community and cooperation.
BNA political analyst commenting on the issue writes the Senior Officials Meeting of donor countries held in Kabul aiming to assess the mutual commitments made between Afghanistan and international community in Brussels conference.
The SOM holds in a time that, the Afghan government has successfully worked for good governance, strengthening and expanding the bases of government, anti – corruption campaign, controlling the income sources, providing job opportunities, building women’s capabilities and has attracted the global intention.
What have mentioned above, are part of Afghanistan’s commitments made in Brussels conference and met the conditions of international community made for continuing their aids to Afghanistan.
The high ranking officials of donor countries who met recently in Kabul, have assessed the achievements of Afghan government in implementing its commitments in practice and what the international community have done for Afghans to meet their national objectives.
In fact SOM is a coordinating mechanism between Afghan government and donor countries.
If we impartially assess the activities of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan since the second session of SOM, Afghan government has been successful in fight against corruption.
Establishing justice and judicial center, investigating administrative corruption causes and bringing in to the court a number of corrupted people including a number of high ranking officials of ministries and army senior officers are the major achievements of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.
Likewise, the process of monitoring on contracts and big projects became more serious, as, the president personally monitors concluding big contracts. Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in its peace efforts made Islamic Party with leadership of Gulbudding Hekmatyar to set aside all its hostilities, accepting Afghan constitution join peace process. In addition, bringing reforms in government, national development, providing job opportunities, growth of private sector and capacity building of women are among the major achievements of Afghan unity government.
Political elites and civil society activists believe, performing the above activities have been precisely planed and seriously per suit, however, fulfillment all commitments again needs the supports of foreign friends and international community. It should be acknowledge that still there are works have not done yet because Afghanistan is passing a terrible situation in its modern history; foreign interventions continuing, terror and disrupting security and preventing construction programs are at the top of agenda of foreign interventionist countries use Taliban and IS as proxy for achieving their ominous objectives in the region. Therefore, it is required, the international community considering the facts help Afghan government in implementing its other commitments.
