UN a core platform for promoting global governance
The United Nations is the core platform for practicing multilateralism and promoting global governance, said Hou Kai, chair of the UN Board of Auditors.
Hou, who is also auditor-general of the National Audit Office of China, presided over the recently concluded 78th regular session of the UN Board of Auditors held on Tuesday and Wednesday at the UN headquarters in New York.
Hou said as an essential pillar of the UN's oversight framework, the Board aims to promote the UN to strengthen management and improve performance, and its role can only be strengthened, not weakened.
The Board will better fulfill its responsibilities entrusted by the UN General Assembly, and further leverage the Board's role in exercising audit and providing service, he said.
