When public money is collected and spent on citizens, it is called Public Financial Management in Actions. When the government provides free tuition, electricity, health and education for the benefit of all, it is called PFM in actions\u2019\u2019 Hon. Kowo explains.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, the President of Liberia declared a tuition free program for all public Universities and colleges across the country, it is called Public Financial Management in actions. Doctors and medical personnel were also sent to specialize in various medical disciplines, it is PFM in action, Hon. Kowo added.<\/p>\n<p>The financial expert explained that going forward, the government will be more robust by reaching out to citizens across the 15 counties through public information and the ongoing Public Financial Management outreach to explain how the government collects resources and spends those resources in the right interest of all.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019Going forward the government will be more robust by reaching out to citizens across the fifteen counties through public information and the ongoing public financial management outreach to explain how the government collects resources and spends those resources in the right interest of the all\u2019\u2019 he says.<\/p>\n<p>The Comptroller and Accountants General believes that when public information is spread out to citizens on how the government collects national resources and how they are spending, citizens will be more informed about ongoing development across the country.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
