Comment

There are no explicit caps on individual donations, which potentially fosters dependence on financial contributions by large donors. As full lists of donors are neither published nor submitted to relevant authorities, transparency in campaign finance is further curbed and the prospect of party’s reliance on a single donor is reinforced.
