Anti-Corruption Party

The Honduran Anti-Corruption political party, known in Spanish as the Partido Anti Corrupción (PAC), was established in Honduras as a response to widespread corruption and inefficiency within the country's traditional political system. Founded by Salvador Nasralla, a well-known TV personality and sports journalist, in 2011, the party emerged from a growing public outcry against corruption, seeking to offer a new political alternative to the Honduran electorate. The PAC positioned itself as a movement outside the conventional political spectrum, aiming to disrupt the longstanding…   dominance of the two major political parties in Honduras, the National Party and the Liberal Party.

The core values of the PAC revolve around transparency, accountability, and the fight against corruption in all its forms. The party advocates for a comprehensive reform of the political system to ensure that public officials are held accountable for their actions and that government operations are transparent and open to scrutiny by the public. The PAC also emphasizes the importance of social justice, aiming to address inequality and promote policies that benefit the wider population rather than a select few.

Economic development, through the lens of fairness and opportunity for all, is another pillar of the PAC's platform. The party believes that by eradicating corruption, more resources will be available for social programs, education, and healthcare, leading to a more equitable society. Furthermore, the PAC supports strengthening the rule of law and the judicial system to ensure that corruption is not only prevented but also punished effectively.

The PAC's emergence and its values reflect a broader trend in Latin American politics, where new movements and parties have arisen to challenge the status quo, driven by a widespread demand for change among the electorate. By focusing on anti-corruption, the PAC seeks to differentiate itself from traditional political parties and to appeal to voters who are disillusioned with the political system and eager for genuine reform.
