/ðə//ˌskændəˈneɪviən/ /ˈkʌntriz/ /ɑː/ /mʌʧ/ /ədˈmaɪəd/ /ɔːl/ /ˈəʊvə/ /ðiː/
world for their enlightened social policies. Sweden has
/wɜːld/ /fɔː/ /ðeər/ /ɪnˈlaɪtnd/ /ˈsəʊʃəl/ /ˈpɒlɪsiz./ /ˈswɪdən/ /hæz/
evolved an excellent system for protecting the individual

zealously in the belief that they are serving the public. As
/ˈzɛləsli/ /ɪn/ /ðə/ /bɪˈliːf/ /ðæt/ /ðeɪ/ /ɑː/ /ˈsɜːvɪŋ/ /ðə/ /ˈpʌblɪk./ /æz/
long ago as 1809, the Swedish Parliament introduced a

parliamentary committee representing all political parties

person is 'Justiteombudsman', but the Swedes commonly
/ˈpɜːsn/ /ɪz/ /'Justiteombudsman',/ /bʌt/ /ðə/ /swiːdz/ /ˈkɒmənli/
refer to him as the 'J.O.' or 'Ombudsman'.
