The National Anti-Corruption Forum was launched by former Deputy President J.G. Zuma in Langa, Cape Town. The forum was born of a cabinet decision following the National Anti-Corruption Summit in Cape Town in 1999. It was viewed as another milestone in the fight against corruption and was consistent with the global call to address the problem of corruption from various angles whilst carefully considering the local context, the particular historical, social political and economic conditions of the society within which corruption occurs. In his launching address, the Deputy President reiterated the cross-sectoral commitment to prevent and combat all forms of corruption.
