Journalist and activist Nuong Faalong has strongly defended the government's decision to investigate and prosecute alleged corruption cases from the past administration, insisting that accountability cannot be ignored. "The kind of corruption that went on in the previous administration was obscene, and it is being revealed as time goes on," she stated.
She rejected suggestions that the government should move on without addressing past financial misconduct. "You cannot just tell the government to ignore these crimes and move on.
First, you stop the bleeding, but you also have to find out what caused the bleeding," she stressed.
While acknowledging that no court has ruled on the allegations, she maintained that existing evidence justifies further legal action. "You cannot say on authority that the level of corruption was obscene because we have not been able to prove it in any competent court of jurisdiction.
