 Under the present constitution the Office of the President has wide powers over military and legislative affairs, with a relatively weak national parliament. These were a subject of considerable controversy when debated by the country's Loya Jirga in December 2003. However, they were seen by the interim administration and its Western backers as being essential to securing the stability of Afghanistan.
The Office of the President incorporates the following Departments:
Department of Academy of Sciences
Department of Anti Corruption
Department of Cartography
Department of Central Bank
Department of Control and Audit
Department of Environment Protection
Department of Fighting Disasters
Department of Kabul Mayor
Department of National Security
Department of Olympics
Department of Red Cross |
