                    [Summary] => 

It may now be easier for the government to recover "dirty" cash and other assets stashed abroad by corrupt officials with the Senate’s ratification of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC), Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez said over the weekend.


The Senate recently voted 17-0 for the ratification of the UNCAC which introduces a comprehensive set of standards, measures and rules that governments can use to fight corruption.


Although 140 countries signed the Convention, only 79 countries ratified it.
