Reform #20: Track All Government Spending in Real-Time

Create digital system where every government transaction is published online within 24 hours so citizens can see how their tax money is spent.

  • 1Publish every government transaction online within 24 hours with complete details
  • 2Show amount, purpose, beneficiary, and approval authority for all spending
  • 3Require all senior officials to publish annual asset declarations online
  • 4Provide mobile-friendly interface with SMS alerts for major spending in citizen's area
  • 5Cross-check all declarations against tax records and bank data automatically
