Financial Irregularities
Financial irregularities at the Washington, DC, embassy of the Federated States of Micronesia have been made transparent in an audit, SmallTownPapers News Service reports on November 14, 2006. Ambassador Marehalau has returned to Yap for a report. The ambassador is apparently not at fault. Instead, a driver assumed responsibilities for web services and appears to have overcharged the embassy. The audit summarizes the problems as lack of knowledge of procedures or an intent to cover up inappropriate expenditures. The cash journal required by law was unavailable to the auditors. -- Clemens Kochinke, Berliner, Corcoran & Rowe, LLP, Washington.
