The latest global corruption perception index is out.The US fell from 18 to 19. Thailand fell 4 spots to 84. Always interesting to read and discuss.  http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2009/cpi_2009_table

Updated the link for ya.

Australia in the top 10, woah baby.

And Vietnam at 120? Didn't expect it to be that low.

Yes, it's interesting. We have the topic on the forum.

Hong Kong only 12 ???

Would have guess a bit more under-table stuff happening there

even with the Chairman's influence...

The US dropped with all the political craziness going on.... house waya and means committee chairman being investigated for tax fraud and abuse of power multiple times and busted by the news even!!

4 or 4 mayors busted for sexual misconduct... ie the now famed 'client #9' out of New Jersey.

The ongoing issues with acorn and it's questionable practices.... like telling a undercover 'pimp' had to run a brothel and get away with it.

It's not perfect here but at least we can still poke fun of them on tv.... for now. lol

Damn it! I new I live in a corrupted country! I guess it is the quiet type of corruption!

i thought thailand was at 60 something the last time. Anyways i don't believe the poll, it's not about who corrupted more, it's about who gets 'found out' about it... right?
