Auditors join UN programs
By Wu Jiao (China Daily)
Updated: 2008-09-24 14:25 Sixty representatives from the National Audit Office (CNAO) are currently working as part of the United Nations Board of Auditors, the country's top auditor said yesterday. "This shows China is capable of contributing to the building of the United Nations and joining in its business affairs," Liu Jiayi, auditor-general of the CNAO said yesterday. On July 1, the CNAO took for the first time its seat on the UN Board of Auditors. The term will last for six years. "It also shows China, with its constant improvement of democratic and legislative causes, has won recognition from the international community for its auditing capacity," he said yesterday in Beijing. The 60 representatives are currently working on nine UN auditing programs, including auditing the UN peace missions in Libya and Sudan, and the expenditure of the United Nations Children's Fund, he said. The tasks are very demanding and need proficiency, as the peace mission alone has taken up about half of the annual UN budget, Liu said. In a bid to train more quality auditors, China sends about 40 staffs to take turns working for the UN, he said. Over the next six years, the programs will contribute to the development of China's auditing skills, he said. Liu was speaking following the second China-Africa International Audit Seminar, which ended yesterday in Beijing. The heads of 38 auditing bodies from 17 African countries took part in the seminar. Priscilla Komora, head of the Kenyan National Audit Office, said the seminar had helped to accelerate communication among auditing organs in different countries and help them learning from each other. "The problems confronting auditing departments in developing nations are sometimes similar," Komora said. "The seminar addresses issues many of us are interested in, and gives us opportunities to learn from experiences in other countries," she said. Auditing departments can use the experiences of other countries to find the most suitable solutions to problems, Liu said. The CNAO has established exchanges and cooperative relations with more than 120 countries and regions, he said. (For more biz stories, please visit Industries)
