뜻
To enforce a penalty for breaking a rule or law.
문화적 배경
In Brazil, the 'Lei de Improbidade Administrativa' is a frequent context for this phrase. It reflects the country's ongoing struggle and legal framework against corruption in public office. Portugal follows strict EU directives. The phrase is often heard in the context of 'RGPD' (General Data Protection Regulation) and the penalties for companies that leak data. In Angola's recent economic reforms, the phrase is used by regulatory bodies to signal a new era of 'compliance' and transparency in the banking sector. In Mozambique, the term is common in environmental law, especially regarding the protection of natural resources and wildlife against poaching.
