Ashraf Ghani, who has been in power almost a year, said today that corruption is a "cancerous lesion" threatening the survival of the state.
He says graft in government contracts, land grabbing and illegal drug production and trafficking are major problems. He says education is key to ending corruption.
Ghani says the government is investing in agriculture as the majority of Afghanistan's people live off the land. Ghani says Afghanistan should be known as an exporter of legitimate products.
