Attorney General Graham Leung has emphasized the importance of a new substantive Commissioner for the Fiji Independent Commission Against Corruption (FICAC) and made it his top priority. He visited FICAC staff in Suva and emphasized the importance of political neutrality, transparency, and accountability.

Leung urged legal professionals and department Heads to adhere strictly to the law and work diligently to eradicate corruption. He also emphasized the importance of using taxpayers’ money appropriately for lawful purposes, as FICAC is not a persecution agency but a body of civil servants.
