World’s most honest nation!!!
The worst disease that can stop a nation’s progress is corruption. The common thought is that corruption resides only in the nation where we reside. I had this thought and was grumping my nation until I came to know the Corruption Perceptive Index (CPI). CPI score (which is out of 10) reveals an apparent level of public sector corruption in a country. CPI table of the year 2009 comprises 180 countries and this table is created from independent surveys from reliable sources. Higher the CPI, the least is the corruption. This data is 90% confident.
The country which holds the highest CPI is New Zealand (9.4) followed by Denmark (9.3) and then by Singapore (9.2). The most corruptive nation is Somalia (1.1). On analyzing the reasons behind the nations with high CPI, the one striking our head first is that these countries have a stable government. Other reasons might include well performing judiciary, active anti-corruption agencies, independent audits and other potential reasons.
The other data is that CPI of majority of the nations (nearly 125 countries) is below 5. And the most important thing is India is in the 84th position in this table with a score of 3.4.
Congratulations to the winner!!! A small change– The usual comparison “As honest as Harichandra” can be re-written as “As honest as New Zealand”!!!

That is a nice article! I found you via indiblogger. Adding you to list of my blog networks.
If we need to better the rankings, we need to learn on how not to promote corruption. when a traffic police says he will make us pay penalty for Rs 300/- we pay him 100 without receipts.. that is just an example to quote...
